People are right, if you can include Italians, then faction-design-wise, you can include the Japanese.
Multiplayer skirmishes are not meant to reflect historical scenarios, they tossed that out the window the moment they decided it's ok to have Americans in Kholodny Ferma or Soviets in France. A decision I fully agree with, by the way.
Still, not gonna happen. The two new introduced factions will most probably be thematically appropriate to one another. From what we see, Brits are in, so the other faction, if any, will be something Brits fought. In my opinion Brits did not clash with Japanese enough in the Asian theatre to merit an entire expansion around this scenario.
Mortars, howitzers, floating APC etc.
Japan is a mix of the US and Germany.
If you say - Japanese tanks was very thin.
I say: - armor Pz 2 "Lynx" was also very thin, it is not destroyed by three shots ZIS-3.
I honestly do not understand why so many categorically against Japan.
Japan is not only the jungle and the US Marines
Japan fought against the Soviet Union in China.
- In the north of China is very cold and snowy.
- Large steppes
- Large cities
- mountain
- Kwantung Army (the most numerous and powerful group of ground forces of the Imperial Japanese armed forces during the Second World War)
Japanese tanks are better and more interesting Italian
Half the stuff either existed in amounts that you can count with your fingers, or never left the paper it was designed on. Thats not the Japan that the US and USSR fought against... Might as well give everyone experimental tanks to complete the feeling of making fake factions.
excellent, 45 not doctrinal Ostwind this normal?
thousands of T-34-85 - doctrine.
Company of Heroes is not a simulator, it does not pretend to 100% authenticity.
Company of Heroes - a Game on motives World War II. Multiplayer action takes place in 1944, and the main infantry USSR - recruits.
So yes, Japan realized.
I believe that Japan can be realized. Men of War proof.
always possible to implement experemental tanks.
Japan needs Axles:
- All factions axis are the minimum requirement microinspection, Japan would be microinspection fraction and combined arms action.
- Add new allied faction with Panzer Elite / OKW style (hopefully USSR)
my choice of the USSR against Japan:
- Games on the theme of the USSR against Japan - very few
- No need to paint the island (if you do not take the landing of Marines on the island)
- Japan, more interesting than the Italians, the Germans fifth fraction - is nonsense.
- The USSR, because fairly (the game was already two factions US and British)
we have:
- Four Germans (2-vCoH, 2-CoH-2)
- Two Americans (1-vCoH, 1-CoH-2)
- One Soviet Union
- One British (in vCoH), and one more opportunity to appear.
I am for the introduction of new factions:
- Guards / Shock Army, the Trans-Baikal Military District.
- Japan
- Eastern Legion - Romanians, Hungarians, Finns
- Italo-German faction.
Why repeat and do the same thing?
I was against the OKW and the USF in the last DLC
