There is a side selection mode in the game. The “Soviet-Japanese Border Battles” campaign should be included in the game as a map for low BR and so that both factions can also fight each other.
In my opinion, an even better idea is the current mm 1-3; 3-5 create mm 1; 2-3; 3-4; 4-5.
The current one doesn’t bother me because I prefer to use the equipment from BR1 on BR5. Firstly, it is a bit more difficult, and secondly, it certainly leads to frustration for CoD players who have to deal with someone who beats them with a basic rifle.
BR1-3 could be Khalkin Gol
BR3-5 Invasion of Manchuria
these events took place relatively close to each other so having the same maps would be possible too, at least until more and better maps could be made.
This would be a welcome improvement so all factions must prepare to fight 2 factions, fighting just one is too exploitable.
I dont think they will get spacecraft. Japan is currently lacking br 5 attacker aircraft, br 4 mg, assault rifle and br 5 tank that is not tank destroyer
if the Japanese eventually gonna fight the Soviets and the Americans they’re gonna need a lot more stuff if they don’t want to turn into a bot faction.
Type hei auto rifle can compete with avt 40, ussr doesnt have br 5 aircraft, tokyo arsenal can compete against ppd 40 and ppsh 41. Ho-ri and Is-2 are very different vehicles so it would be appreciated if japan would get more tanks for br 5. Also japan and soviets can clash in low br if the high br will be unbalanced.
Japan will also need assault rifle to counter fedorov and as 44
The entire Japan faction needs to be overhauled altogether they have a bunch of things which don’t belong in the right place and that’s not even counting anti tank weapons or AT guns you can build as an engineer squad
