Wow. If you ever get this released you're going to have to provide a lot of supplemental counters with the game. I don't think everyone is up to buying 3 copies of Rising Sun just to complete the needed OB.A few stats:
The Japanese have a total of 27 coy of squad equivalents (including AFV crew and Gun crew etc.)
The Marines have a total of 51 coy of squad equivalents (including AFV crew and Gun crew etc.)
So the Americans almost outnumber the Japanese 2:1 in terms of personnel.
The Japanese also have 20 OBA modules, while the Marine has 30.
The Japanese have 12 AFV, while the Marine has 70. (plus 30 HT for a total of 100).
The Japanese have 66 Guns, while the Marine has 113.
The Japanese have 30 HMGs (half of which are .50cal), while the Marine has 48 HMGs (half of which are .50cal).
The Japanese has 6 FT and 44 DC, while the Marine has over 100 FT and over 200 DC.
The Marine also receives 81 Fighter Bombers with an assortment of Napalm, Rockets and Bombs.
YET!!!! The Japanese can stand virtually toe to toe with the Americans.....they are only forced back slowly. This is where the 16,800 FFP step in. To totally fortify the Japanese force versus such an overwhelming Marine force.
I find the stats quite stunning.
