Ahh crap. fken hate this, had a big post all these ideas, I hit ctrl + R instead of ctrl + T (open new tab) anger... Anyway, so now I will paraphrase everything, just expand it in your mind and accept that I wrote it, even though at this time I can't be bothered reproducing it, requries too much effort, too annoyed!
So Australia deserves own civ.
- We not vassal state of Britain.
Even though we part of commonwealth:
Under John Curtin (Possible figure head); we were contemplating bringing home troops from the europeon theatre of war, to defend australia from potential japanese invasion.. I like the fact that Anzac Infantry is offered as a unit. But Australia did stop the Japanese dead in its tracks at Kokoda. *A few aus civ's you could simply incorporate into scenario; the authors would be flattered and surely let you, some in these forums.*
Potentially, you could make it impossible for tanks and other such units to travel through, the mountain regions there. by altering the values of terrain or slow down artillery's movement considerably.
Ok, then mentioned idea of a unique building fort the Japs. A POW (Prisoner of War) camp... after conquering a city they could build it. The building results in an increase in producitvity (eg. Burma Railway)
The other effects could be, increased war weariness, or decreased cultural output from that city, or an increase in the chance of revolts.
Anyways, some ideas missing may add when they come back to me. Going to go play now, can't wait.. its got some great reviews.. cheers in advance

The Kokoda Track campaign was part of the Pacific War of World War II. The campaign consisted of a series of battles fought from July 1942 to January 1943 between Japanese and Allied primarily Australian forces in what was then the Australian territory of New Guinea.
The Kokoda Track itself is single-file track starting just outside Port Moresby on the Coral Sea and (depending on definition) runs 60100 kilometres through the Owen Stanley Ranges to Kokoda and the coastal lowlands beyond by the Solomon Sea. The track crosses some of the most rugged and isolated terrain in the world, reaches 2,250 metres at Mount Bellamy, and combines hot humid days with intensely cold nights, torrential rainfall and endemic tropical diseases such as malaria. The track is passable only on foot; this had extreme repercussions for logistics, the size of forces and the type of warfare conducted on the Track.

The Burma Railway, is a 415 km (258 mi) railway between Bangkok, Thailand and Rangoon, Burma (now Myanmar), built by the Empire of Japan during World War II, to support its forces in the Burma campaign. Forced labour was used in its construction. About 200,000 Asian labourers and 60,000 Allied prisoners of war (POWs) worked on the railway. Of these, around 100,000 Asian labourers and 16,000 Allied POWs died as a direct result of the project.
The other effects could be, increased war weariness, or decreased cultural output from that city, or an increase in the chance of revolts.
