Since EasyTech has refused to add a Pacific Army Group, I will show you my version: Here's the idea KMT First Army: Zhang L.F., Li Z.R., Zhang Z.Z., Bai C.X. KMT Second Army: Chen S.K., Sun Liren, Du Yuming, Xue Yue Communist Army Group: Peng Dehuai, Lin Biao, Liang Xinchuang, Zhu De, Xu X.Q., Xu S.Y. Tibet: Neutral Royal Indian Army: Thimayya, Auchinleck, Alexander, Bose British Asian Expeditionary Force: Slim, Wavell, Mountbatten, Wingate Dutch Colonial Army: Winkelman Thailand First Army: Phibun French Asia Defense Army: Tassigny, Juin Mongolian Legion: Mongolian Commander East Asian Imperial Forces: Hata, Yamashita, Okamura, Umezu, Yamaguchi, Terauchi Pacific Imperial Forces: Kuribayashi, Itagaki, Koiso, Ushigima, Saito, Nagumo, Yamamoto, Nagano, Koga, Inoue, Kondo, Toyoda. Soviet 6th Army: Malinovsky, Meretskov Soviet Siberian Army: Vasilevsky, Shaposhnikov Soviet 8th Army: Voronov, Voroshilov

Don Quixote de la Mancha if easytech was willing to add triggers to Army Group then the Soviets should be neutral until China falls, then join in due to proximity to enemy

STILETT0, there's four big problems with this: 1. Too many generals per army group. Granted, the AI can spawn additional generals, but starting with more than 3 generals is too much. Also, find an actual Mongolian general. 2. Axis are heavily outnumbered: Just three army groups (One of them being the small Thailand) against everyone else except for Tibet. 3. The map is wrong: Afghanistan should be independent, the British should have Sarawak, Sabah, and Brunei, Thailand is missing its southern territories, Japan should have southern Sakhalin and the four southern Kuril Islands. 4. The most glaring one: the division of territories won't work. Soviet 6th army and Royal Indian army don't have any coast nor border any enemies, so they are blocked from being able to fight.

Xinchuang? TBH, Soviets and Mongolia didn't do anything, so they should be neutral. Also you should add a British Burma Army Group with Wavell and Alexander. Where are Manchukou(the submissive manliest) and Nanking Government. Also what is Bose doing in the Royal Army, replace that thing with Mountbatten.

STILETT0, what about Northern Australia ? Juin was principaly in France/Algeria so maybe another general like Catroux ? Shouldn't the Soviets be neutral ? Dude Japan surrendered due to soviet invasion of manchuria. I mean, they joined the pacific teather very late but still they joined and actively played a part in the war. Additionally they were officially at war with japan at 1939 and defeated japan in mongolia and manchuria. Plus they supplied Mao zedongs guerilla and kuomintangs regular forces with tons of munition.( you can search op. zet in the net.) So it would be understandeable if soviets are in a pacific conquest mode. Btw I am talking about a 1945 pacific mode not 1942. I hope there will be a 1945 pacific and an 1944-1945 endsieg starting with vistula oder offensive in the east- ardennes offensive in the west.

As for the Soviets, there was still the Khalkin-Gol incident, and the other Army Groups can't do much because they can't take Allied territories. So that is to represent Soviet neutrality.

Where are Manchukou(the submissive manliest) and Nanking Government. Also what is Bose doing in the Royal Army, replace that thing with Mountbatten. First, Liang Xinchuang is a prominent PRC general but is sidelined by Zhu De and Peng Dehuai quite a bit. The French are on the Allied side. This is in 1940, just before the French surrender. The USA should be programmed not to move out of their home territories until like turn 20. There was still the Khalkin-Gol incident, and the Soviets were officially at war with Japan, even after signing a 5 year non-aggression pact. Their troops will be sparse, anyway, and they won't have factories. The East Asian Imperial Forces represent the slightly autonomous regions and puppets of Japan. The Nanking Government is the first KMT Army Group. Putting all the warlords in there would be too much of a headache. This is before Bose defects

Also, if the Soviets join on the Allied side, it is really edged towards a Allied victory They can make a small soviets located around manchuria with a little navy and bad economy. For counter, there can be a manchuko army located in manhuria and south sakhalin. If they add the whole USSR then yes, It will be an auto- allied victory. Also easytech really needs to fix the army groups. I mean When I play rommel N africa I quickly kill the british but I cant send my army through italian lines because I automatically occupy them and if there are troops it becomes impassable but still army group mod is like hoi4 and great. Pacific must be added to bring some naval combat to it

You know, that is not how army group works. Everyone has to have a factory.

I pointed this out earlier, but that is the most glaring flaw I see with this. When you have "blocked" army groups like that, you have the players of that army group not being able to do much for a while, which is bad game design in my opinion.
