Understandable, and by no means am I doubting Japan’s ability to impose their will. To get something straight, what Andrew was argueing was that the U.S would not be able to deliver an adequate amount of force in the Pacific to fight Japan should they choose to commit to building a floating bridge to fight Germany. I disagree. America has more then enough money to build up in the Pacific while continuing to do their floating bridge.
I’m not saying that you ought to send your fleet in immediately… even I know that’s suicide. I’m not suggesting that the UK is just gonna send in their cruisers and destroyers to try and fight the might of Japan. Moreover, part of this strategy also involves the British improving their airpower. My current testrun I’m using The Good Captain’s J1 that he made and so far it’s going terribly for Japan. Multiple destroyed transports, China is holding in Yunnan and the British and ANZAC aren’t letting up either all the while the Americans have built up a sizeable fleet that’s threatening the homeland. I’ll keep testing J1 openings though to see how Japan can casually make 70 IPCs without any opposition from the Pacific allies. Just know that the Two Nation Navy strategy that I’m developing doesn’t involve the UK China and ANZAC turtling up like most of these Allied players do… I’ve found in multiple testruns that Japan doesn’t have an easy time when the UK and China oppose them, but who knows maybe that’s just a fluke.
