Found out Australia has its own Bombay. Well, sort of. Australia is unguardable by the Allies in the 1941 scenario. = If Australia breaks down her starting Corps she has 8 div. + 1 HQ. = She has to completely abandon her west coast, including Perth a moral, main supply, size 4 port. = Even with all of this she does not have enough units to guard the ports on her southeast coast, east coast, and Canberra. She will leave two size 2 ports empty. As Japan I can walk into 2x size 2 ports with no resistance. This means I can supply 80 STR worth of units. (Size 2 port = 40 supply x 2 = 80). If that doesn't wet your whistle, I could land to the beaches to the southeast of Canberra. At best it will be held by one unit or Australia is leaving another port wide open. Canberra is a Main Supply, Moral, and Production center. Yes, it would be hard to take, but if you dont' guard it.... quote:
You say but wait the allied fleet will... Die to the Japanese. Yes, yes it will. quote:
But the Allies will defend and reinforce... With what? If I can invade India on February 15th turn. I am thinking I might make it to Australia on January 21st in force. The Allies cannot even send a division until late March and I bet it is actually April.
