On the other hand if pro-german or radical factions unify China then Japan will be pushed out of China.įor a bigger rework Germany/GEA could be given a much bigger role in China to counter Japan and anti-concessionists. This is longer and more expensive path, but can lead to China in Prosperity Sphere without war. Japan has to invest and slowly improve it's perception in eyes of Chinese people, help to unify China while sidelining radicals like LKMT and pro-Germans like Zhili. In Path of Cooperation the goal is to build China into an ally: When this variable will reach certain threshold Sino-Japanese war will become inevitable and United Front will form, Fengtian may join both sides depending on circumstances, if it joins Japan it will become a puppet.which would give Japan benefits and penalties to Chinese states without going to war, but increase 'Japanese Aggression' variable. The Tech Tree Spans from 1900 till the present allowing for either a. Each Start Date will have the following: 4 Politicians (One Per Ideology Group), Order of Battle (As Accurate as Possible), 7 Focus Trees at the very minumum (One Per Major Country). Japan can take various aggressive actions in multiple Chinese states like forcing concessions, unequal treaties etc. It will allow you to play through the last century of world history.There is 'Japanese Aggression' variable.In Path of Aggression the goal is to conquer and exploit China to the furthest extent: Japan can choose between 'Path of Aggression' and 'Path of Cooperation' If Japan can only intervene in certain cases then Japan campaign might feel limiting to a player, but Chinese tags are playable - not a good solution, but a lesser evil.Ĭurrently there is no easy way out of this, but for a rework I'd suggest something like this:.If Japan can easily invervene in China then people playing in China have a big problem.Again, I know it's not ideal, but this is the only complaint we've had so far about the way this operates, and we had a whole heap of them when Japan was able to go to war in China whenever it felt like.

If Fengtian begins to lose, stalemates, or you goad them into betraying you, yeah. I've picked Support Warlord Allies focus before, according to focus tree Burh to Ash can work with it, but I'm not sure how it's supposed to work, since having to manually justify CB is not something which I ever saw in KR.ĭoes it only happen if Fengtian starts to lose war with Qing or I'm missing something? Operation Ichi-gou focus causes war with them, but I can't take it before Burn to Ash Strategy, so the only way to get Burn to Ash bonus is to manually justify war on Sichuan Clique. In my game as Japan, Fengtian defeated Beijing government on it's own, when I reached Buth to Ash Strategy focus it has strange requirement - I have to be at war with Sichuan Clique (which I presume is strongest faction in China except Fengtian), if I don't meet this condition I can bypass this focus and get no bonus.
