I'm starting to dabble with the custom nations (see the stickied custom nations thread - here - nws-online.proboards.com/thread/658/post-custom-nations ), and the first nation I had a run with was China. China starts off navally as a small fish in a very big pond - the other nations in the game are Germany, Britain, France, Russia, the USA and China, and at the start of the game China's resources are well below any of them, with an undeveloped shipbuilding industry (so the ships you can afford to build take longer to come out) and a 10,000 ton dockyard limit. I fought four wars (Japan, France, Japan, Germany - cut short by the 1925 end date) and in every one had fewer ships and less advanced and smaller capital ships (but I always try and have strong light forces - and they were even more crucial in this game) - and managed to win every one, but every large encounter was a nail-biter. A lot of fun, and I recommend giving it or another custom nation a look if you've 'played out' the starting nations.
