Tactical Challenges of the Japanese Offense

In this DLC, players take charge of the Japanese forces, equipped with three powerful veteran divisions and a strong air presence. However, despite this military might, managing a puny navy creates strategic challenges. The engagement's setting, with its varied terrains and the looming threat from British defenses, emphasizes careful planning and tactical finesse.
