Dont have an idea

It looks like England is sitting tight with 120 divisions on the mainland; I'm up against a real player, and I'll never gain naval superiority. I'll need to use paratroopers, but dropping into the interior would be suicide, and it seems unlikely they'd leave the coast unguarded—what should I do?

Japan

I have over 1,000 in this game and I still suck. I have absolutely no idea what to do or how to figure out templates. I’ve watched several videos of people such as Bitt3rSteel and have no idea how these people break through so easily with the same templates I have, yet I constantly get pushed back, let alone make any progress.

Example; playing as Japan, I cannot ever beat the Chinese. They push me back easily despite putting full divisions on the line as defense. My defense template is the same 18w with engineers and artillery as support. That didn’t work so I went with a defense template that someone else suggested as just 12 width, no support. Pure defense, not used as assault.

My assault units are the default 24w with the same support but I added infantry guns to every line. I can’t push with them and I get run back easily.

I can initially make a good push with my armored division but then the Chinese flood the area with a massive amount of troops and I’m stopped. I can’t make a breakthrough anywhere and they just completely overrun me and push me back. Air units seemingly do nothing.

Bitt3rSteel won the war by Nov 1938 and it’s Aug 1938 for me and I’m getting pushed back into Manchukuo because they managed to break through my line and just flooded them in at will. I seriously don’t get it and I don’t understand what templates actually work. They have supply problems, low org and low strength and they push me back problem free while I can’t even break through their weak units with full strength and org in my end. I have doctrines and the bonuses on the focus tree but it’s like I have a 1 unit division with no support.
