This is a coop game with my friend Dutchy , he is controlling India and Aleutians fronts. I am controlling Australia and South Pacific.
Here is the strat map ;
Some history for this game ;
Game started with all IJN CV's hitting Pearl Harbor really hard , crippling every single combat capable ship and followed up by a rapid invasion of surrounding islands and eventually invasion of Pearl Harbor.
Allies quickly lost control in central pacific after Pearl Harbor fell so we focused on holding Southern Pacific really strong as a staging point for later game.
Allies were in control of China and Burma with a good grip by 4/42 but due to balance issues with the mod we made a deal with Andy Mac. I wont go into details much ; we gave up China and Burma without a fight and ceasefire untill February 43 at Burma front + a few million supplies as compensation to nerf G8N1 (It had better stats than B-29 in 4/42)
Some carrier clashes and invasion of SRA later , Andy Mac pulled a surprise Australia invasion in 6/42. As i was focused on holding South Pacific , Australia was mostly empty. So i pulled everything back to Sydney to gain some time , meanwhile brought over 7 US Divisions and they managed stop IJA at outskirts of Sydney. From there its been a grind to kick IJA out of Australia , progress is slow but steady.

Tracker Naval Summary;
This has been a wild game , IJN is still massive , Andy Macs second research iniative about give fruits. First one gave him A6M8 , late Ki-44 and 43 models and G8N1 at 4/42 Air War has been hell for a few months. Second Wave will give him N1K and Ki-84 series , i am prepared to lose air superiority for a few months again.
In February as India/Burma ceasefire ends its gonna turn even wilder , a massive Chinese army supported by Commonwealth troops is ready to take back what was once theirs. Both sides have thousands of planes ready to rip each other apart.
And then there is Pearl Harbor , a massive thorn on my side. Andy Mac is regularly launching deep raids into Southern Pacific Convoy lines , keeping me very paranoid.
