It is still going on...
NEWS FROM THE FRONTS:
The year 1942 is bringing many changes to the world map.
This is the situation in the Kashmir Region:
You can see the various brigades. MTN+Eng are really quick to capture mountainous terrain and if confrontated by multiple enemy INF they have enormous defence bonus.
Eng-II gives +12 IIRC.
All the Indian armies got surrounded and destroyed - not in a quickly fashion, but in a very efficient one
After Netherland surrendered I concentrated the divisions spread out around the Indonesian isles towards Australia.
Tojo Hideki, while actively participating in the invasion increased his authorities, planning the new empire along with his fellow Generals and Admirals.
A large force landed in Darwin. The Australian army was lured to the North to counterattack.
After several days 3 Divs secured Perth and the road was open to land in the south and the southeast, from both directions.
The Australian fleet was nowhere to be seen, strange.
Back in India, the Japanese army enjoyed air supereiority and advanced steadily over Burma to the Indian peninsula. Thai troops saw also little action.
They had their forces at 30%, so I milctrl and merged them in large armies.
Console command "event 713502 SIA" was used, and I managed to have 10-15 full strenght brigaded divisions to get some fightworthy troops , able to defend the region.
In the meantime, the whole of South America except 2 countries joined the allies. After Australias annexation even Sweden DoWed me.
Not a real threat:
I like to raise my ship's score, especially when they collect various flags!
In Europe, France annexed Vichy regime after Axis took control in North Africa.
Finland was defeated by the Soviets in March and switched sides, but later that month Spain joined the German effort.
Having unlimited supplies and resources, I puppet Bhutan and later Nepal - though the eastern province got english for some strange reason.
My Industry keeps growing...
Oops, I revealed my beautiful American invasion!
Well, in early march I simultaneously landed in LA and San Diego, which was poorly guarded.
I kept sending reinfircements to advance as quickly as possible and capture as much terrain before the superior American mechanized divisions organize effective defence lines.
Some Air units were also rushed overseas. Carriers were constantly hitting the US Fleets, first in San Francinco later in Newport, till most ships fled the pacific.
Acapulco got also attacked often.
But looks as if the American Army is busy elsewhere? Let's ask our intelligence...
2 May 1942 - BRIEFING FROM OUR GENERALS:
Kanin Kotohito:
"The US proved to be totally unprepared, even overseas they are osing ground to the Spanish forcres in Africa. But time is against us, we have to reach the aAtlantic quick if we want to win this war. Don't forget the Soviet Union, who is doing well in repelling the Axis' invasion!"...
..."The Italians, on the other hand, performed poorly.They didn't advance in Egypt and the whole Middle East is still under british control. That might benefit us in the long term, because our forces in India don't seem to be troubled much by Allied resistance..."
Martin Bormann: "I haf to express my dissapoinment, gentlemen. Ze glorious German armies are fighten und dying in Ost Europa together with their week allies and you are still reluctant to join our cause and fight communism... Since you haf already secured ze Pazifik you should attack the Soviet bear soon... We are under heavy pressure!"...
General Hanada:
"Our campaign in India is going well. The japanese army enjoys support of the local population because of the wise choice of our leadership to promise independence and help improve infrastructure and local Industry. Total defeat of British India is inevitable, our army will soon be marching through Persia...
Tojo Hideki: "After the previous Australian government fled to London, we ensured the cooperation of friendly elements and granded a wide autonomy, an agreement signed on April the 14th that ensures beneficial cooperation for both the peoples of Japan and Australia... The Australian Army has been disbanded and a new force is being organised from scratch. The same model is to be applied in New Zealand as well..."
General Matsui: "We have secured a great bridgehead. Local bases and are being repaired, resources and supplies collected and now that the Americans are beginning to counterattack we have plenty of space for maneuver..."
Conanteacher, on behalf of the various ministers: "Infrastructure is being built by utilizing the excess Japanese Industrial Capacity. Later, Factories will ensure both strong allies (puppets) and support of local population to our cause. Some Naval bases and Airfields will also be ready in the next few months.
Japan has 500k+ supplies. All resouce's numbers are green and growing. Tachnology is at about 140%...
...and cooperation with our European allies is also fruitful. We might be fighting together soon..."
