Japanese have the initiative and quality forces to get the job done. Japanese also have the option to utilize poison gas against the Chinese! Nasty stuff, but pretty devastating. However, the Chinese have numerous infantry and supporting American air power. Also, there are a lot of mountainous terrain and narrow valleys to aid the defending Chinese forces. A well-balanced, fast-moving, and exciting scenario about a not as well known WW2 theater of operations - China.
