Costly in Mech, but a good round strategically. One of the things I’ve had to tell myself in this version is that Mech Infantry… are just Infantry, and not to get caught up in worrying about losing them. Their job is to die for the Emperor’s Godly goals.
Japan collects 55 IPCs.

And because the Chinese are screwed no matter where they go, we shall press the attack in a magnificent and barberous fashion. Buy 1 Inf, saving 1 IPC.

Well, that went a little better than I planned, which I am thrilled about. However, I also see the absurdness of dice and on our next game we shall use the low luck system that you spoke of.
USA places and collects 81 IPC’s.
China places & collects 3 IPC’s.

That was an awesome battle, and I loved your commentary!
Yes, the dice are cruel. Even with low luck, the gods still punish us, or reward us, based on whimsy. Some day, I’ll accept it…
But not this day!
-
I’m sorry, but looking back on my US purchases, I overspent, and did not place my carrier. So, instead of 2 Fighters, I could only afford 1, along with the Carrier & the remaining 4 will be spent on a Mech. Sorry about that, and here is the updated map at USA turn end.
