2 Coats,

Furious/Medium level - Japan joins Axis & bombs Vladivostok. Depending on infantry reserves of SU, the Japanese tend to get kicked out of its north China provinces/Manchuria. Okha tends to fall to Japan.

Generally not all that lively unless either side is greatly weakened by either war in China, or war against the Germans.

So, if you're the SU I wouldn't worry too much. 6 divs in Vladivostok should be enough.

In my games the japanese just sit around as the russian do. I prefer sending 2 or 3 paratroopers (in a plane of course!) and some 6 or 9 (depends on the number of SU units) tac bombers. Note that i play CORE and the japanese seem to keep their non-aggression pact with the SU every time.
