RE: The Great War in America - New Scenario

Im currently working in a "What if" Scenario about an American Front during the Great War.
In this What If Scenario, General Victoriano Huerta overthrow President Madero in 1913 and successfully put a quick end to the Mexican Revolution with almost no material damage to the country.
For the next 4 Years General Huerta Militarize the Mexican Society (Indeed he did during his government), grow the Federal Army from 30,000 men to 250,000 men (300,000 with support forces) because the tensions with the USA and aproach the German Empire (like he did historically).
The German Empire (involved in the Great War) will soon begin with the unrestricted submarine warfare, and sends the infamous "Zimmerman Telegram" to General Huerta. The british intercept the Telegram and send them to the Americans. President Woodrow Wilson use this as a Casus Belli to declare war to México.
With the American declaration of war, México accepts the German Alliance proposal and Officially joins the Central Powers and the North American Front is open.
During the War, Guatemala could join the Allies side to get back Chiapas (a former territory taken by México), and of course, by American pressure through the United Fruit Company. If Guatemala declares war, Nicaragua, Honduras and El Salvador, will declare war to Guatemala to overthrow the President Estrada Cabrera (EL Salvador try it, by invading Guatemala in 1903) and then form the Major Central American Republic (besides, El Salvador, Honduras and Nicaragua are the traditional Mexican Allies in Central America).
Colombia could be bribe by the Central Powers to declare war to the United States and take back Panama.
Also, I can make some events to simulate the Mexican negociations with the Japanese Empire to convince them to join the Central Powers (At the time Mexican-Japanese relations where very good, they where teaming up to stop the USA influence, and besides, the Zimmerman Telegram Ask México to initiate conversations with Japan).
Scenario information:
Factions: (so far).
Allies:
1. United States of America.
2. Guatemala.
Central Powers:
1. México.
2. Nicaragua.
3. Honduras.
4. El Salvador.
5. Colombia.
Scale:
Hex size: 30km Hex.
Unit size: Regiment (but it could change to brigade level).
Turns: Full week Turns.
I made from scratch a North America map and already get the Mexican Federal Army (at his peak during the Mexican Revolution) and USA WWI OOB. Im having a hard time getting the Central American countries OOB, but its not an impossible task...
I open this Thread to show the scenario advances and get some help and tips to improve the scenario.
Hope the community likes.
