Here's a close up of the of the 2 tanks. The Japanese tank is a Type-97 Chi-Ha and both kits are from Company B. Since there isn't a Japanese force list our for Bolt Action, I'm using the British list as a start and just kind of winging it from there. There is a post on the WWPD forum about special rules for the Japanese which is a good start for now.
I picked the Japanese just to get a break from the standard Germans and it creates the opportunity to build some Jungle Terrain which will be both challenging and fun. I'll probably add a few more infantry squads, a mortar and perhaps some light artillery.

I've always liked a Japanese force, good luck with it sir.
A lovely start to your Japanese collection.
A medium mortar will be handy. After my first Bolt Action games you need mortars. The 50 mm mortar will be handy too. Lon has released the Japanese 81 mm mortar. Just ask him as it doesn't appear in the store.
As Bruce Meyer of Company B for an aerial for the Chi-Ha. One has been made for this tank. I should know I've two of them.
More Japanese in the pipe-line from Company B.
The stuart was used by the Japanese in the Fall of the Phillipines and in Burma. So it's a very handy afv to have.
Good luck with your project.
Cheers,
Helen
