With C and D ratings, the Japanese would be pushovers.

In the PB demo, their deficiency in direct firepower compared to Marines is already quite pronounced, and it would be a lot worse in 1945.

Quality ratings in PzC tend to be a bit more generous than those in PB (where inexperienced, but trained divisions are either C or D), but it's also possible they received a quality bonus for their tenacity and defending their own homes, like the Landwehr in EP '14.

It's also possible that the 14th Regiment, or at least one of its battalion, did see action somewhere as the rest of the divisional units in the screenshots are B or C quality.

One downside to the current lack of flexibility in terms of setting conditions, is that amphibious losses and arrival states (not turns, as a % arrival chance can add quite a bit of variation) might lack variation. Kamikaze aircraft and suicide subs, divers, mines and guerrilla groups will have effect X with some variation, but no dramatic variation unless mechanics are changed.

As to the next title Prucha and Michas will work on: Dragoon might not be suitable in terms of divisions involved, so maybe Gothic line/Po Valley or indeed north-eastern France/south-western Germany as suggested earlier.
