I´ve first moved out my art units from Myitkina to bring them to Karachi to aid to the assault on this Allied stronghold. After seeing the Allied av being adjusted from 600 to 12.000 [>:][8|] there I changed my plans of not attacking anymore and ordered the art units back to Myitkina... The Allied bases North of Myitkina are all Japanese now and I doubt that Yunan will be able to supply all those troops over 180 miles of trails. I guess Yunan itself doesn´t even have enough supplies to fully supply the 10 units there but who knows...
We will have a look on the Allied av in the next turns and then we will notice it soon when the Allied will start starving... even if there are still over 1000 Allied assault points at this base, there is no real threat. Too low supply and I´ve got enough troops in Burma to keep the Allied honest.

Defeated Japanese Units Retreating!
two USMC divisions, a TK btn and 7 art units have moved out of Lautern and are on the trail towards Dili now. Seriously looks like that Miller plans to take Timor without any more amphibious assaults. Miller told me that as long as I have every carrier, every warship and every Betty near Timor it would be suicide for him to send in ships. And he hopes that his LBA can prevent me from doing a counterlanding. Well, I hope Miller will be surprised by my forces when he decides to attack somewhere else as I don´t have EVERYTHING near Timor anymore. There were days when I had 98% of everything near Timor though! [;)]
with the bases in Northern Australia nearly stripped of ships and Perth being stacked with ships I guess the next upcoming invasion will come directly out of Perth again. I think that also the original invasion of Lautern came directly from Perth.
