If I am playing a non-balanced mod game of G40, I always bring Russian mech/tanks and a couple of planes to help out China. They often can help fortify Yunnan for a critical round, or have an opportunity to blitz into Malaysia for the big bonus and additional headache. If things are not looking promising in China, the fast movers can make it back to Moscow before they are needed for a final assault on the capitol. If China has more income and Japan is hurt in the mainland of Asia, USA can spend additional income in the Atlantic. That more than compensates for the reduced units in the European theater. In fact, if the Allies can keep and fortify Yunnan, they have a very high chance of winning.
Japan attacks USA 1st turn…

Japan attacks USA 1st turn…
then the USA gets it’s 82 IPC on it’s 1st turn?
Japan attacks USSR 1st turn…
then the USSR still may not attack Germany until it’s 4th turn?
on the 1st turn do you get your initial IPC’s as setup has listed or do you get your initial IPC’s after losses to your territories if any by other’s 1st turn attacks?
no one gets Natl Obj bonus’ on 1st turn is that right?
if you attack with a carrier a/c, the a/c has no attack value but it does take 2 hits correct?
in an attack, are you allowed in defending to take 2 hits off your a/c first even though it may mean that your aircraft have no place to land and then they die becz there is no place to land? -

It collects 82 IPCs (assuming it still has all of its territories) on its first turn. It can only spend the 52 IPCs it has.

Correct, unless Germany and/or Italy declare war on it before then.
on the 1st turn do you get your initial IPC’s as setup has listed or do you get your initial IPC’s after losses to your territories if any by other’s 1st turn attacks?
You get your initial IPCs at the beginning of the game, so territory losses have no effect on your first turn IPCs.
no one gets Natl Obj bonus’ on 1st turn is that right?
No one starts the game with them. They can be collected at the end of turn one.
if you attack with a carrier a/c, the a/c has no attack value but it does take 2 hits correct?
Correct. However, there must be at least one unit with an attack value involved in the attack.
in an attack, are you allowed in defending to take 2 hits off your a/c first even though it may mean that your aircraft have no place to land and then they die becz there is no place to land?
Yes. You may also do so when attacking.
