A Japanese faction would play similarly to Italy, only Italy has better kit and more importantly industrious fascist friends to the north.

A Japanese faction in current coh2 is not possible, end of.

A similar playstyle (outdated infantry, light vehicles, infiltration) would be an Italian Commander.

For both Axis factions, has Berseglsiri, tankettes, 140mm mortar, etc

Rush REs or Rifles into the key garrisons, try and hold on against the onslaught, and spam some hmgs of your own. Without incendiary a 50 cal in a garrison only narrowly loses to a MG42 in yellow/green cover

Pure gold right here, submeta just like Partysans and Armored Assault. And it's a stock commander! I'll lay it out:

Commander Principles

-Partysans counter Luchs/FHT/rocket arty, anything you want.

-PPSH Cons swarm and kill all (more on that later)

-Con repair is okay when you have hundreds of Conscripts (more on that later)

-Rapid Conscription gives you a F R E E S Q U A D for every model that's killed while the ability is active. This lets you create an army of Conscripts for simply 125 munis, who will recieve PPSHs and continue to Zerg and wipe the fascisti off of the map. You get rewarded for attacking, and the MP saved is used to sustain the Conscript Army.

-ML-20 is a okay arty piece, in 1 vs 1 it's not very practical but in 2 v 2 it goes well with a USF teammate or a UKF one who goes with a non-arty commander.

It's an extremely simple BO, but it's micro heavy and relies on the commander a lot.

Vs OKW:

Super conservative early game, just hug garrisons and try not to lose too many models. No need to fear their light vehicle rush, you have Partysans. Take it slow, build up an army of 4 to 5, nurture them, heal them...

Once Cons start to vet and you get mass quantities of them you can begin to push back from your conservative posture. Flank MG34s, hug cover, flank everything actually, put trip wire flares at the entrances of buildings to prevent infiltration, and try not to lay mines like your normally supposed to. Once 3 cp pops give PPSHs to all Cons while saving at least 50 muni at all times for at nades and oorah. Combined with rapid conscription PPSHs are more important than mines mines because you can bully every infantry in the game once you start snowballing in veterancy.

Once you unlock conscription, wait until your at full strength and launch attacks at the enemy map center from the flanks and middle while using the ability. Don't lose squads but be sure that at least 12 models die so you can get 2 free con squads, a fair trade for 125 munis. If you can lose 18 or 24 models...woah lol.

Generally you rinse and repeat, attacking from all directions with PPSH cons, using AT Partysans to back cap and as anti vehicle, and slowly teching up with engineers. Forget light vehicles-we're going fast T34/Su-85 to close the game.

USF at gun imo is too frail, weak, and muni dependent to effectively use outside of a scenario where you have the entire map, floating MP with a Sherman force and the enemy builds a heavy or something

Make price 320 and

Due to its frail nature make take aim a vet 0 ability, make vet 1 passive pen buff not as strong as the tungsten anmo
