Face it, you guys got duped.

pretty obvious that this is April Fool's joke, but question about third Axis faction still open.

Hey if you figured it out you obviously did not get duped. Some people did. Some didn't.

Just wanted to add this as what could ba a late game Japanese unit, seeing some ppl have doubts about what Japan would be using in the late-mid game other than light tanks:




The first one is a Ho-Ni I SPG, this one has a 75mm field gun and basically had a slightly better performance than the Soviet Zis-3 gun, it was able to engage in both indirect fire for infantry support and direct AT fire, so yeah it could deal some good damage to mid-late armour in game.







This one is the Ho-Ni II SPG, an upgraded version of the previous one, it was equipped with a 105mm howitzer and was also able to engage in both direct and indirect fire. When firing in AT mode it basically used either AP shells or even more effectively HEAT shells, which could pen around 110-120mm or so if I recall correctly, it would basically be a real tank buster and technically deal more damage than a Jackson shot or so. A lot more of these were produced compared to its 75mm counterpart, and both SPG versions saw extensive combat all over the Pacific and even Manchuria probably. On a further note, if the Ho-Ni II was also to engage on indirect fire and make a barrage, it would basically have the same range and HE firepower as the German lefh 18 105mm howitzer or the M7 priest, since the stats bewtween these guns were very similar, however it might be a bit too OP to make it like this in game.:D

So with these examples and others it wouldnt even be necessary to add prototypes or tanks that didnt saw combat such as the Type 3 Chi-Nu, the Chi-To and so on to deal with late game units or German and Soviet heavies, as some ppl suggested.:thumb:
