I'm going to turn Australia back into one big prison camp - nothing you can do to stop me now. But please send more prisoners.

Yes I know Sydney is building them for all the Japanese prisoners I will be taking !!!!

We are in a race if I beat you with enough force to hold at the rail junction Darwin is safe...

I think you are forgetting something.

If I were you I'd evacuate Australia while you still can. And India too for that matter.

Nagara takes a PT boat torpedo and my heavies pound Tavoy to pulp again.

I have over 100 battle hardened heavies in India and they can close any airfield in range at will..

Unfortunately Sveint is heading for Australia....

He is using Betties in Ground Attack mode and they aree not that great at it but I am sure the pilots are gaining exp.

OK not going to discuss Australian Front in this thread operational security and all that those of you reading the sub thread on Australia will realise my intentions

India spotted 200k Japanese on the trails heading towards India.

If this is correct I am baffled. Sveint how do you plan on supplying thsat many troops across Jungle trails ?

I am so certain it must be a feint I supspect i wont even bother redeploying until they are 60 miles out.

In the meantime my Heavies pound the forces on the Akyab front I anticipoate long range interceptors will try to interfere soon cause I am doing to much damage...

Even my B-18's are getting in on the act !!!
