The Phillippines


Recommended Posts

Curious Question, Why are the Phillippines a minor power in this game?

If I were designing this, I would treat the Phillppines as U.S. territory with it's military represented by U.S. troops. The Phillppines was not granted independence until 1948. Anyways, that's just me.

Cheers,

Hi Geofighter!

The reason is that their armed forces were virtually all Filipinos, and if we were to make them US then the units destroyed in the Japanese invasion could probably be reformed in the USA at reduced cost, which would be unrealistic, especially given the horrible reality of what did happen to the prisoners after surrender.

This way we prevent some unrealistic events, while we also have it set up that an Axis attack on either the Philippines or the USA will automatically bring the other into the war, so they are effectively one when it comes to war policy.
