Title: Upcoming Friday Sqops, pick sides .
Post by: Suave on June 21, 2003, 04:56:26 PM: Burma, Japan's war

This TOD is based around the Japanese war in Burma. It will be broken up into three separate standalone frames.

Frame 1
Allies:p40b, hurriMkI
Axis:a6m2, d3a, b5n

15th January 1942. The Japanese begin their invasion of Burma from Thailand, attacking up the Kra Isthmus. They quickly capture the British airfields around Tenasserim, enabling Japanese fighters to now escort bomber attacks against Rangoon.
The Japanese 55th Division crosses the Thai-Burmese border from Raheng. They quickly threaten Moulmein in Burma, using the same tactics as in Malya of outflanking the British forces through the Jungle.

Frame 2
Allies:SpitV, P40e, Mossie, Boston
Axis:a6m5, ki61

20th December 1943. Heavy fighting by all forces marks a balance of power in Burma. The British reach the Maungdaw plain in Arakan. The Battle for Razabil in the Arakan begins between British and Japanese forces.

Frame 3
Allies: Spit9, p47d25, mossie
Axis: ki61, n1k2, ki67

3rd January 1945. Japanese forces in Burma are now under terrific strain as the Allied forces push them back relentlessly. The Chinese finally take Bhamo in northern Burma after the Japanese evacuated at night.

The 19th Indian Division meets the British 36th Infantry Division at Indaw, making the first connected front in Burma. British troops take Akyan in western Burma, unopposed.

Frame 1 is tentatively scheduled for July 4th, but it isn't decided yet .

Reply here and let me know if you wish to be allied or axis please .

Post by: daddog on July 01, 2003, 10:47:32 PM: Since I was a CM starbird was always the Frame C.O. in my squad. I will ask him if he still wants to or if anyone else would like to try their hand at being a Frame C.O. If no one want to I certainly will be the Frame C.O. for Squad Operations.
