On the other hand, the Japanese are one of the least interesting nations by far in terms of a total inadequacy with tanks and anti-tank capabilities.

Even the Italians could often field a decent medium tank at various times.

For myself, I don't know if I will ever play a Japanese campaign (though I have started a few), just because the tank/anti-tank capability is so dreadful. I at least want a reasonable chance to destroy the enemy tanks without having to throw a suicidal man with a mine strapped on to achieve it.
But for someone like me who is tired of The Battle of The Monster Tanks, the Japanese are an extremely interesting infantry force.

Gotta love this game - something for everyone.

But then this morning I shot up some Nationalist Chinese Marmon Harringtons mini tanks with a 37mm infantry gun (you know - the French one with the pathetic APCR round) so I'm feeling pretty happy with my Gunjin.
Well yes, there's always some nation wimpy enough to provide a fight for any of the major combatants. I was thiniing of course about how wimpy their anti-tank capability was against GB or the US. China don't even count in my book. I might someday start a Republic China campaign and hope I see a lot of commies to attack, but, alas, i would probably get bull-dozed by Japan in virtually every battle. I wonder if the commies have a greater chance of fighting Japan than the Republic Chinese?
