CW report:
The funny obelisk SW of Sibu (see photo) is back in our hands, but we had
to kill 1 para to get it after he refused to surrender!

His Majesties governement will neither confirm nor deny reports
of under sea explosions in the South Pacific as it is our policy
never to discuss the operations of our silent service.

 

[rcoutme]

The Japanese forces cruelly and deliberately slaughtered our tourists who were admiring a white obelisk. This means WAR!

In return, we sank a Nip submarine and are preparing massive invasion forces to take all the Japanese possessions on the Asian mainland and afterward, the Japanese islands themselves!

To the emperor of Japan I give you this one chance, surrender all your ill-gotten gains in the South China Sea and the Dutch will consider that the attacks on our forces were an abberation. Failure to do this by next month will constitute a permanent refusal!

Dutch out.

Great Victory!!

A large US naval fleet was sunk near Hawai.
2 Carrier was spotted with their escort but they were quickly sunk by the awesome power of the japanese empire!

After a bloody battle, Rabaul is now free from the democratic white despot.
A great celebration will be held in the city.

Our captured arty was taken back home by our mighty troop.

The british air fleet in singapor is now burning on the ground.


We will never surrender! We will crush all who opposes us and finally get our east-asia prosperity sphere!!!

 

[LouLong]

Sunk a transport (full of marines ? ;-) ) near Guam. About all there is to say (but USA are a minor power in that game, aren't they ?).

We pushed back your feeble attack on Rangoon
killing one infantry and red lining the other one.
Thanks for the use of the arty, we found it useful
for destroying the roads around Bangkok.

When are the Japanese supposed to attack me??? China is still waiting for the real Japanese army to show up.

The evil Japanese did not take advantage of our peace offering! Instead, they landed an invasion force near Manado. There are two Niponsese vet Infantry and a regular Machine Gun battalion outside the city. The defenders are in high spirits and hope to hold out against the yellow invaders. Not much else to report.

 

[LostKnight]

Nothing important happened.

Usa: sunk one destroyer near pearl
british: kill one infantry near australia
China: heavy bombing and one guerrila dead
netherland: Menado is mine and kill one infantry in south asia

All quiet except for this invasion in New Guinea:

Turn sent to Rcoutme this morning. Sorry I was in a rush to work and didn't post here.

[rcoutme]

Not much to report. There is an invasion force near Ketapang that our troops will sweep off the island next turn. Another force threatens Donggala, but is too small to amount to any real advances.

 

[LostKnight]

Sorry rcoutme, but since my fleet is near your city, my two infantry did manage to kill 2 defender. They will take the city next turn!

 

[rcoutme]

@LostKnight...I plan to take this personally and hold it against you in future pbem's. Going after the Dutch East Indies is really mean. Especially since this is exactly what the Japanese did!

 

[eric_A]

Just SE of Port Moresby Commonwealth forces engaged the IJN.
The score so far:
1 JAP BB sunk, 1 JAP CA sunk, 1 JAP DD sunk
1 JAP CA heavily damaged, 1 JAP DD heavily damaged.
2 CW DD sunk, 1 CW fighter shot down

China has just about finished its tunnel to Bangkok. Expect to see lots of Tourists and off duty G.I.s running around French IndoChina in the next few weeks.

The Japanese navy has come to Sangkoelirang in force. We have burned all documents and buildings and left the city on fire! We will resist this evil invasion to the last man and woman (which should only take another 3-4 turns).

No problem, we will just have a weekend-long allied
strategy conference to decide how to defeat Japan
in the shortest time.
