Japanese Support Group by Warlord Games

Japanese Support Group

The men of the Imperial Japanese Army were excellent soldiers, with extraordinary devotion to their country and their emperor. Hardened by years of war in Manchuria, the Japanese army was well-disciplined, led by experienced officers, and overseen by the feared Kempei-tei political officers. The Japanese soldiers achieved a semblance of invincibility in the early years of the war, conquering Thailand, British Malaya, Singapore and Hong Kong, the Dutch East Indies, and most of the American Philippines.

Fanatical loyalty and iron discipline were at the core of the ethos of the Imperial Japanese Army, and although it did not have the same level of heavy weaponry and vehicles as its allied opponents, it was well supported by the Type 92 medium machine gun and the Type 97 medium mortar.
