Russia / Japan Recharged

Depends on your group

Our take: A BGG regular groups Russia/Japan with China/Korea as advanced maps that really change the game, and another reviewer calls Japan claustrophobic with brutal resource shortages.
What you need first: Needs Power Grid or Power Grid: Recharged.

What it adds: Russia (restricted plant market, scrapping rule) and Japan (two separate starting networks, claustrophobic long map).
What it fixes: Adds advanced rules changes for groups that already know the base map set.
