    Aargh, I was going to make that guess. Why else would the PM of Australia be a clue?

      Rats!

      Nice job Techumseh! It is a match for the Wirraway. I resign as an aircraft spotter. (Boco mutters to himself, "but it did look like a Dauntless")

      Any Sentinels and Frogs?

        Congratulations Techumseh, the scenario is about a japanese invasion of Australia in 1942.

        The aircraft were the Wirraway and Boomerang. The painting depicts the only time a Wirraway 'fighter' shot down a Japanese fighter (the opposite happened hundreds of times though )
        For more information have a look at: http://www.raafmuseum.com.au/researc...ries/index.htm

        Boco, I'm thinking about including the Sentinel tank, but I dnon't think that the Matilda Frog entered service untill 1944...

        Here's the pictures I was planning on using as the third and fourth clues. The money was printed in small quantities by the Japanese in 1941 when they were prepearing for their strike south.

            Here's all the uniquely Australian units I've created. Going clockwise from the upper left they are the Matilda Frog, AC 1 Sentinal, CAC Wirraway and CAC Boomerang.

            edit: fixed the Sentinal graphic
