My thinking is as a separate game this setup is flawed, but I’m betting anything that the Global game (the one we are all going to play from here on out for the most part) is pretty balanced with the addition of all those Russian infantry to the North of Manchuria. Something tells me that India crush strategy will take a beating.
Question about J1 and US

I’m sure this topic has come up before (sorry!) but I want to make sure.
I’m Japan. At the start of the game, say I only attack UK/ANZAC (e.g., put infantry on Celebes or Borneo), then that means:
-
US gains a one-time $30 bonus at the end of US’s first turn.
-
US gets $30 at end of US’s first turn, if US also declares war on Japan during US’s first turn.
In other words, US could get a minimum of $60 at end its first turn?
Thank you!

That’s correct. However, if the USA declares war, it will collect 75 extra IPCs, not 60. This 75 includes the other three NOs it will be eligible for.

Thank you for the clarification. :)
