Fighting the japanese. Yikes.

Fighting the Japanese, the Stuart is a real monster. (Main gun, CMG, BMG and AAMG), and it deals with all their tanks just fine too and is nippy into the bargain.

Ditto the BT-7. Also the T-28 is really good for dealing with Jap
infantry (2mg turrets plus co-ax).

Anybody played LC vs Japanese? Is there any Japanese aircrafts? I am also planning a LC as USMC. Don't know whether AAA should be included in core.

Yes, Japanese Aircraft do show up and as with other battles against Axis Forces this becomes less frequent as time goes on.

At what point in the game time line (month/year) do the Japanese and Nazis stop having decent air cover? I almost never get air support in the spring of '45. I'm just asking in case the game time line is different.

For the ETO, Off the top of head exact dates escape me. However, the game does pretty much follow the historical norms in this regard. So a little research will give you the dates roughly when to expect Axis Airstrikes to drop off. They will not disappear even in April 45 or later. Just the odds will be much greater for them happening. As for the PTO, I only dabble in there on occassion, I'm sure someone could tell you how the late days of the War work out here, something tells me though it is much the same.

Flame units are like weak A-bombs, they kill your own AFVs, even if 100m away. So they are not monster.

It seems that you have experienced something that I have not. I've never had any problem with them. However my enemy has had LOTS of problems with them.
