This is a topic that will cover the most needed Japanese tanks not all that can be added just tanks that will be actually good for Japanese standards but before I start here are few things that should be considered :
-
We Give Ha-Go its smoke grenades its a small change but will be good for this little guy to have them:
-
Chi-Ha Kai maybe its time to put it in the tech tree and not keep it as event vehicle :
Ok that’s all from the easy changes now to the last tanks that are needed in the Japanese Tech Tree :
1. I-Go Ko :
Well maybe the most important tank for Japan. Why its the most important well because its made before the standardization in the Japanese army. During world war 2 Japan was really focused on standardization before variety and it had excellent logistics much better then the German logistics sadly for Gameplay this means less variety of equipment but that was the demands of war. So I-Go Ko is a tank made before the standardization and the adoption of Type 97 heavy tank machine gun :
So what Machine Gun did it have well it had "Type 91 Tanker Machinegun’':
Type 91 “Tanker” Machine Gun – The Armory (dockeryarmory.com)
So since that there was no standardization Japanese factories manufactured this tanks with different Removable Hopper mags ranging from 30 rounds 45,50 and 60. Japanese tanks have big problem with their machine guns and if we give I-Go Ko the maximum 60 rounds will make it very interesting option for early BRs you may have not much armor but you will have 60 round MG and 57 mm gun. So I strongly believe that’s probably the most important Tank to be added to Japan.
2. Chi-Ri II:
Well main reason is the autoloader it has small second gun for destroying APCs or other soft targets. The Auto loader gives you 3 shots with the main gun and then you can go back to cover and reload another 3 ready shots. So basically you can fire 3 shots in a bit more then 3 seconds.
- Ka-To:
A bit of a meme tank like Type 5 Na-To but it has more armor and Type 5 (105 mm) same as the Ho-Ri. Will it be good tank No ! But will continue the Type 5 Na-To line and you will be able to destroy bigger armored targets with this ultimate glass cannon.
4.Add to Second Engineer Squad Type 90 75mm field gun:
Well second squad of engineers will be able to build different anti tank gun. Will be very good gun at BR III cuz right now for Japan that’s the hardest BR to play.
And that’s all Japan needs in the Tech Tree that’s the most essential stuff that will make them a full faction. (there is need of a lot of planes and small arms but i wanted to cover just the tanks cuz there is very little needed)
