Japanese Hard Attack Values in PzC

[Elxaime]

Here is another reference, the October 1, 1944, US Army Handbook on Japanese Military Forces:

The Japanese had learned hard lessons from 1939 when they faced Soviet mass armored units on tank-friendly terrain. They would avoid such fights, instead making use of cover and flexible withdrawal tactics to encourage enemy armor to advance and lose cohesion, then envelop the attacking tanks with specialized tank fighters that were the land-based equivalent of the Kamikaze.

In Panzer Campaigns, even the few decent Japanese heavy AT guns and heavy tanks are no match for their Allied equivalents. And Japanese indirect fire won't usually cause significant armored losses. So Allied armor that can stand off and fire from 2 hexes is pretty safe. But if you try and push Allied armor into close combat with the Japanese - watch out!
