Amphibious mech got the same treatment as amphibious tanks. Not so crazy over rivers, stronger but not useless in normal terrain either and are now 1 more expensive than normal mech, and have slightly lower defense, armor and piercing. In vanilla they are almost literally an upgrade from normal mech, which does not make sense as you are getting bonus river attack.

China can now call up resistance after japan has taken 15 states, which spawns x divisions in random states depending on how much PP and preparation you spend ahead of time, and can build up said preparation from 10. This preparation costs 100K manpower and 5k guns. Can do offensives from 20 states occupied, which you have to prepare (and spend PP on) for as well.

Combat damage to strength factor nerfed to 0.25 from 1, and combat damage to org nerfed from 1.6 to 0.4. This should allow for naval battles lasting much longer, without affecting the firing rate and thus critical hits etc etc. This might need to be highered, but we'll see
South african tank spawn if they dont exist now is 75% equipment. Having no south african should not be better than having one
USA no longer has war support requirement for wake the giant
Siam now becomes fascist when he does siam reborn focus
Manchu now has a 200% bonus for fighter 2s on mamc

Amphibious tank 1:
armor up to 30 from 10
Hard attack up to 10 from 4
Piercing from 10 to 32
IC up to 18 from 10

Amphibious tank 2:
breakthrough from 36 to 40
Piercing from 61 to 70
Hard attack up to 15 from 14
IC from 13 to 20

BUT, no more crazy fucking bonus on river crossings and amphibious attacks. These guys were fucking insane. They are now more on par with medium 1 and medium 2 respectively, without having the river and amphibious debuff but no buff either. This makes them more
usable outside of situations where you naval invade and immediately change the template.


Mech 1 is now 25% cheaper to research, mech 2 12.5% cheaper, amphibious mech 25% cheaper to research. Getting divisions should be a legitimate strat but its just too much of a late game tech, this should open it up a bit more
Work on japan focuses, japan now gets 2 heavy battery 50% 0.5 years ahead bonuses from battleship focus, free airplane catapult from carrier models (this probably will get moved up), 2 50% 0.5 years ahead secondary battery bonuses, and one amphibious tank bonus from amphibious tank focus
