Heya
As promised some month ago i wanted look deeply on the Pacific Game and found some errors on the Japanese Empire Leaders.
I only had time yet to look on the Japanese
Field Generals .. I will look deeply on the
Naval Generals in the next days.
What i did?First i looked on all Generals & Lieutenant General that you guys were using for this game. Like in Europe many Entries & Removals were wrong.
Then i looked on all Generals & Lieutenant General of the japanese Empire from 1939 - 1945 that had a major role in WW2.
For my suggestion to you i won't provide the unimportant ones or the ones that switched commands fast were almost entirely on the soviet Border.
I was sitting the whole day on it and reading a lot about them i think i found a good solution to bring them up to you + and correcting some erros & Leader Entries
I also found out that almost all Japanese Leaders have an historical entry autumn turns rather than on spring turns. Only a small amount i needed to adapt.
I always looked on the game turn Dates so sometimes the entry was a month earlier or later.
But Autumn works for them all.
What i did not?Sorry i had no time yet to look on the
allied or
chinese side.
Maybe if you guys like this suggestion Mark can look on the allied site .
Maybe there is some role for an Chinese Communist Leader like
Marshal Peng Dehuai , The British
Louis Mountbatten or the US Admiral
Chester Nimitz or some other Leaders that i sadly forget atm.
The Suggestion* Imamura = His Picture Is wrong. This is Imamura
https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Imamura_Hitoshi The Picture you use is
Tadamichi Kuribayashi , also known a the Defender of Iwo Jima. A New Leader i would like to add.
** Kurita = Sadamu Shimomura.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sadamu_ShimomuraYou use the right Picture but the wrong Name
There existed an Admiral "Takeo Kurita" on the battles of Guadacanal but this is an Naval Leader that i might introduce in my Naval Leader Suggestion
Tomoyuki Yamashita (the Tiger of Malaya) is similiar to von Rundstedt .. Leaving the game in Autumn 1942 and coming back later with
altered stats.
These three Leaders had a major role on the war against China. Shunroku Hata
Toshizo Nishio
Jun Ushiroku So what does it change actually ?
To make it short. The changes add 2 Japanese Field Generals during all game turns. Some leaders leave , some come.. So you have some against China and some against the Allies.
