Well, I'm just kicking this off so don't flame me, but looking at the major engagements on wikipaedia, it seems that the Japanese empire was severely outnumbered by the allied powers; so if you check out http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_Guadalcanal you'll see that 60,000 allied troops opposed around 40000 Japanese troops. I suspect that warfare between technologically similar societies tends to end up depended on gross numerical superiority.
