Update:
-To adress the issue of Japan previously not having non-doctrinal mine detection,Konoe squads can now get an utility upgrade,with one LMG,one Rocket Launcher,and a mine-sweeper.
-To adress the issue of Japan previously not having tank destroyers,and few non-doctrinal T3 units,added the Ho-Ni,with similar stats and role to the SU-76,but with better front armor and not as much speed.No infantry tracking.Unlocks artillery ability at vet 1.
-Moved Banzai hotkey to B,as it makes much more sense there.

Honestly I think this is the best option for those who want the faction, its better suited for a mod.

Great work

Update:
-Added naval units.STILL IN TESTING STAGES.For now they are just static vehicles that can be built only on water,build them with the new nameless unit in hq.

-Battlefield was too silent.Japanese infantry units now have German voice lines(better than nothing eh?) instead of having none.

with Japs faction look-a-like i'd go like this:
(faction mix of ostheer, soviets and OKW)

HQ: Engies (standard 4 man, rifles), Rifles (5 man, rifles, some nade, AT nade, upgrade with LMG or SMG)
T1: MG, mortar and sniper
T2: light AT gun (37mm i think), AT rifles squad (some 5 man with semi-auto AT rifle) and some 222 alike vehicle but with no 20mm cannon but with MG's (forgot it's name)
T3: some mix of light tank, tank destroyers, HT's and early med tank - light tank like Ha-Go, TD like Ho-I (like SU-76 but with better penetration) med tank like Chi-Ha
T4: since brits got Comet that never fought in WW2 then why not give somethink better to japs - some standard med - Chi-Nu, heavy like Chi-To. some arty stuff, so SPG or rocket SPG, maybe SNLF squad


call-ins and other stuff: 150mm mortar, 75mm flak (similar to flak88 but with worse gun) flame tank (with 5 flamers around it), some SPG's or other arty types, Ha-To (which is like Sturmtiger on halftrack), some elite infantry


Japanese faction would be tbh the most interesting army in terms of combined arms, firepower and flexibility

Update:
-Replaced the D3A1 dive bomb ability in naval support doctrine with the kamikaze ability from defensive tactics.
-Kamikaze ability now sends a 50kg bomb before the plane itself.
-Replaced the kamikaze ability in defensive tactics with ceramic grenades,stun grenades for konoe squads.
-Civil engineers can now recive an upgrade that stops them from repairing stuff,but equips them with very inneficient rifles,with less range and accuracy than the konoe squad's rifle,a variable lenght reload,but good damage,and makes them able to merge.
