Pakhoi
Ok, then it should be 1 hex.

Concerning Nanning:
Frontline here quite often changed:

-24.11.39 Jap took Nanning (Haninan/Nanning Offensive Spring-Autumn 39 to isolate National government from its seaports.)
-30.10.40 Chin retook Nanning (counteroffensive since Winter 39)
-20.11.44 Jap took Nanning (Operation Ichigo, Kweilin-Liuchow sector, to establish continental line of communication )
-27.5.45 Chin retook it (counter offensive)

So, Finally, Nanning is never controlled by Japan at the start of the WiF FE scenarios. I also remove the control of the 2 hexes S of Nanning. I added the control of the peninsula to the east of Pakhoi, who seems to have been Japanese from 1938.

What about J/A 1940?

Yes, Missed the Bus (1940 startlines) should have Nanning under Japanese control.

Right, I changed the file.

With lots of divisions available at set up, MWIF could simulate such frontlines (depending on the players' styles, of course).
