China Survival Guide - Is China underpowered?
Hi,
I and a friend have both played at least one china game between this mod and other mods. However, in this mod, it seems particularly impossible to even hold on until the Allies can lend-lease you. Even when you split your forces between guarding your coast and fighting the japanese, it seems nigh-impossible to really hold on. If it's not an issue with us, my feeling is that the +Organization on the Japanese National Spirits give them the edge - even with the Overextended National Spirit.

Thoughts? Am I just bad at the game, or is playing China a bit ridiculous?

I will test this myself.

What i can say is:
1. Dont care about equipment losses ... shoot with manpower
2. Higher Recruitement priority to use your huge manpower even with low equipment
3. Hold behind fortified river lines
4. Use Anti-Air Guns (they can pierce early ♥♥♥. light tanks and reduce their air superiority effect)
5. Dont count onto landlease ... most of it will getting sunk by japanese convoy raiders
6. Dont do useless attacks, try to counter attack at week spots to encircle enemys even if you loose 2-3 divisions yourself

I can easily hold japan AI and players. China is OP in my opinion. They are superior vs ♥♥♥ I would say. :)

How do you go about making communist china the leader of china? There is a single focus that is blocking large parts of the tree below the PRC focus and the reason its blocked is because a nation that doesn't exist, the japanese puppet reorganised nationalist china is the leader of china for some reason.

In my recent turkey game, AI China drove the Japanese into Manchuria and triggered a cease-fire event, so if the AI can do it, I'm sure you can.
