Mod China front along the lines of Empire of the Sun

Personally, I find the Chinese front in WW2 Pacific Theatre games quite tedious. WPP doesn't help this by having to shuffle around a couple of dozen Japanese divisions on anti-partisan duty on top of the usual attritional combat.
I like how Empire of the Sun (GMT board game) abstracts out the Chinese front and I'm wondering if there is some way of making a mod or scenario for WPP that does something similar. Perhaps not even making it a contestable front or something the player has control over like in EotS, but just as a resource sink for the Japanese at historical levels. I'm not familiar enough with how modding works in the game to know whether anything like this might be possible, but I thought I'd ask.
