If those aren't enough for him, then he can try Nemo's "Empire Ablaze."  [:D]

Hmm, ny59giants, well actually after both playtests made it to 6 months gametime elapsed ( one with me as Japan, one with me as Allies ) I've come to the conclusion that I need to tone down the starting Japanese forces a little. I'm looking at cutting their pilot replacement rates a bit ( well, more probably just cutting their beginning pilot pool a bit as cutting the replacement rate will effect the game in 1943, 44 and 45 quite badly ) and shuttling the Ki-109 back by about 3 months. A Japan able to take 1,000 airframe losses per month ( of which at least 800 or so have the potential to result in dead pilots ) is just too much of a juggernaught for the Allies in early 1942 IMO
 
In any case while I've made Japan stronger it is ONLY on the proviso that the Allies have the exact same freedom of movement and choice that Japan gains in my mod. If Japan gets extra divisions and ships then the Allies ALSO have acccess to extra divisions AND start with the option of bringing the Soviet Union into the war on December 7th or 8th should they so wish.
 
I think that to play Empires Ablaze without giving the Allies this freedom of movement would result in a game in which Japan absolutely runs riot. As it is though with this Allied freedom of movement the Allies can put up a good show, albeit I think the Japanese have been made a bit TOO strong in the first 6 months. Thus I'll let them become as strong but just delay the onset of that strength for a few months so that it can't effect the initial phase of operations.

Well, that's that settled then.
