Every time I played the original game, the player with Japan usually bought two transports on the first turn and started shipping tanks into Asia. By the time the US had a significant fleet presence in the Pacific, a very rich Japan owned most of the continent and was pounding on the Soviet capital. The game became a race to see if Germany or the USSR would collapse first.

It was a lot of fun, but if the new mods make that less likely it definitely made the game different and arguably much more 'realistic'.
