Has China ever beaten Japan?

[Zorgoth]

As of 1.06x I mostly see a stalemate. IIRC, somewhere in the 1.04 or 1.05 patches there was a change to the Japanese ai that caused them to become less aggressive once certain Chinese provinces were taken. This is more or less historical, but there ought to be a random chance each year that the Japanese go in for the kill in a summer offensive.

1.01 Japan was a disaster. Lost every time. But ofc. that is long ago.

And this was with 1.06.

From the patch listing:
- Japan should now switch to a more passive stance against China when enough provinces are conquered.

this was in 1.03b

My present game as N. China, I demanded my territories and received them from Japan. Also, annexed the Commies. I was prepared to DoW Japan after securing the rest of Asia, but then I was stupid and DoW'ed Afghanistan which had Russia DoW me. FYI. Russia has amassed a very large army, 171 divisons facing me yet Poland is lightly defended. Please oh please, Germany, DoW this month! :wacko:

delete it and there ya go

I was wondering how you alter the save-game files as they are in an .eug format that I can't open. Thanks in advance for any help.

Concerning the war with N. China and Japan, in earlier versions of the game I actually saw Japan annexe N China once or twice, but since the later patches (and my conversion to C.O.R.E. around patch 5/6) I only see stalemates now. I did just drop a game as the UK though (dropped it to update to patch 1.6c and C.O.R.E. 0.84) where Japan actually started to take the mountainous provinces in the S-W of China and move north along China's western border. The advance was moot however as I was advancing rapidly up through Indochina and had conquered almost all by the time they did this. If I had stayed hands off they MAY have eventually finished off China but with my advance into China they couldn't have held their ground for long.

Open wordpad, then open the save-game file you wish to see.

Or

Click on the file, it should ask you with which program you would like to open it. Select wordpad in the list.



P.S: Make a copy of the save-game file before in case you make a mistake in the modifications, especially if it's the first time you try it...
