Looks like you're going to miss out on the party. If you do have to make a choice between Japan or China in the Axis, I definitely think China would be the better choice since they have a much better chance in the long run. Shame that Hearts of Iron 3 is not like Darkest Hour where you can play until 1964. Would be interesting to see how the world goes.

Japan is already in the Axis, and doing quite well against the Soviet tank hordes... to have China too would be awesome
Looks like the Soviets are doomed, thanks to the two-front war with Germany and Japan. Hopefully, together they can take on the USA and help you out when the time comes, cause it would be a shame if the USA unified the Americas.
Yeah, we can call Dr Richter and give him millions of 1940's dollars to have a fusion reactor
(see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Huemul_Project)and we will not stop!
USA seems bit helpless, also how much leadership and industrial capacity have you got?
19 Leadership and thanks to my low MP growth I've build quite a lot of IC plus my conquered it is 65
10th March 1940 - 10 April 1940
The war in the East has started a very brand new stage: we are involving our armed forces in the campaign in a direct way now: our coastal defenses forces are now patrolling around Denmark to protect our convoys and also to hunt Soviets convoys
Besides, our entire Air Force has been rebased to Kaluga, to help and assist Panzer troops marching towards Moscow, the pearl of the Soviet Crown
Results of course were mixed: the light fighters outdated and few could not withstand the numbers and experience of Soviet enemies
We lost half our fighter force in the first week... it can not be sustained in the time, but we need the experience...
the Bombers on the other side did the job quite well:
Meanwhile back on the ground, the Soviets are experiencing some sort of lack of troops, if not, it can not be understand why their capital is so undefended
on the Home front, the civilian population, seeing our brave pilots bleeding themselves to protect our Allies, did a very generous contribution to the war effort
On April 1st, a high level meeting was organized: they should decided if boots should be sent to fight the Red hordes:
although it was argued that the material and the training of the troops is less than ideal, the experience should boost our Army, and we could use this as a leverage in case we might need German aid in the future... so, it was voted the 2. Army should be sent as an expeditionary force to our German Ally
the Germans, thanked us this gesture by giving us 25 more IC by lend-lease... most welcome will allow the construction of two heavy fighters wings

Argentinian forces on the eastern front, well as long as they have proper winter gear they should be fine I guess...
If they don't have enough anti-tank equipment they will be slaughtered, they might even then if they are not up to date with research.
I would say the Argentinians are no better off than the Hungarians or Italians, maybe even worse off in research?
waaay worst in many aspects... but anti tank tech is one I have tried to keep up to date: every Infantry Division has a support unit and also the cavalry ones have... but again, I am not Germany and I'm sending horses against T-34... let's see what comes out of that... any case, I'm giving the German AI control of those units... if only to fill some gaps in the front, they will be useful
10th April 1940 - 1st July 1940
the valiant fight over the skies of Russia continues and our pilots sacrifice is helping the advance towards Moscow... even just a little:
Meanwhile, a very forgotten conflict arose again to the international sight: the Chinese Civil war, and the Commies of Mao are doing quite well... maybe Japan should have had eliminated them before signing peace with the Nats...
And finally, on June 5th the Den of the Reds collapsed: Moscow has fallen!
and our ships in the North Sea are hunting some Red ships too:
After this events, our ground troops are still waiting to be sent to Russia, but it is clear the war will be over soon... and our airplanes need rest too

Excellent! With the Moscow railroad Crossroads in German hands the Soviet supply system will be in disarray. That should allow Germany to deal the killing blow.
Would be interesting if somehow Red China became the new big bad that you spend the final part of the game defeating.
Soviets are harder to defeat than anticpated...
there are a lot of enemies to defeat still: USA; Allies... but a Red China rising and taking the place of the Soviets is interesting no doubts
