I just want other Japanese players ideas on what is best to do? Do I move them up into Northern China to help out or do I transport them to let us say the Philipines to help out with taking over Manila? Or do I just flip a coin? :-))

Not needed in Philippines. A waste of time and PP's to do that.

I sent them all to Malaya for the siege of Singapore. After that, not sure.

Actually these units are not restricted so no PP's needed to be expended. So Singapore rather than Manila and not moving into Northern China?

They can be used anywhere, of course, but is that where you want to spend you PP's?

Use them in China early to get the China Booty you want. Thereafter, you can split them up as needed. A few Btns are pretty handy in any overland fight.

I transshipped all of mine over to Bataan to affect the siege there. They were helpful, particularly pre hotfix 1097, where artillery were uber against fortifications and terrain. Don't bother with China. You can use the tubes to greater effect elsewhere in the Greater East Asia Co-Prosperity Sphere than the Chinese rabble.

I send mine to Malaya to help take Singapore and them up into Burma to finish off the Brits. The only other place you might need them would be Luzon and only once you have them smashed into Bataan or Manilla as their last base. Until then you don't need the extra firepower.

I like Malaya and then Burma as you only have to ship them once and you can use them twice on the offense and then on the defense to hold Burma.

I think I like the latter the best for strategy. Kill two birds with one stone so to speak!!! I am not sure how much more helpt the artillery will be at Bataan especially when you have all those Betty's that can blast it to pieces anyhow from Formosa!
