[GeneralTacticus]

To Japan (secret): We find your proposal regarding the canal to be acceptable, but we do ahve one objection - which si that we have no real ability to do anything about British control voer Hong Kong and Singapore beyond subversion and funding of local terrorist groups.

Other than that - the pirates can easily be dealt with, especially once we can acquire airfields on the Arabian Peninsula, and the Thai-Indonesian war should be a matter of little concern, as we can simply exploit it to sell weapons to both sides and threaten to cut the supply if they daamge our trade.

To Iran (secret): The situation with the Ottoman Republic is becoming untenable, and we may have no choice but to go to war. If you support us in that war, we will allow you control over the Islamic holy cities in Iraq and let you make the Shia areas your protectorates.

Orders:

Begin army buildup along the Ottoman borders.

Prepare to execute war plans when army expansion is complete.

War Plans:

All fronts: Launch massive air attacks to destroy the Ottoman air force on the ground, then neutralize enemy air defences. After that, use the air force to attack large enemy formations.

Southern front: Launch a mass armoured attack to secure the Suez canal and then ehad for Cairo and Alexandria.

Northern Front: Repeat as above,, going for Beirut and Damascus.

Eastern front: Repeat, again, with Baghdad as the target.

Japan to Israel (top secret) : General Yamosuka continues his meetings in Tel Aviv.... We recognise you may be unwilling to move against Hong-Kong and Singapore, but the proposed trade route will go between Thailand and Indonesia. Under the guise of peacekeeping action Japan can either deploy some of her naval forces in this area to keep the warring sides apart, or we could work together to ensure the swift victory of one side or the other. With regard to HK and Singapore, we must look to the future. Will Britain remain neutral? The Japanese ambassador to London has not yet been recieved or accredited by the British government. How long can we tolerate this diplomatic snubbing? (/top secret)

-General Yamosuka

To Thailand and Indonesia : Imperial Japan formally declares that the seas between the two countries are to be considered as under Japanese protection. Any merchant or neutral shipping in this area will be defended by the Japanese Navy.

Orders : Deploy 20% of my large navy in the seas around Indonesia on a state of alert. Commence training of Israeli-style special forces, trained in the tradition also of the ninja and the samurei. 1 RL Day to completion.

-Emperor Jamshikoto

[GeneralTacticus]

To Japan (secret): That sounds acceptable to us. However, we thnk it would be in our ebst interests to keept he war going for as long as possible withotu oen side decisively winning - this will allow our arms industries to make huge profits supplying them, and will also drain and weaken two potential rivals, makign them more dependant on outside help and less likely to threaten us. (/secret)

[Jamski]

To Israel : (Top Secret) We cannot authorise sales of superior Japanese weaponry to our neighbours, we can, however protest at you suppying weapons, and board and capture the ships you send carrying arms. We will return them to you so you can sell them again to the same customer. This will work as noone will suspect Japanese-Israeli cooperation (/top secret)

[GeneralTacticus]

To Japan (secret): We are astounded by the Japanese capacity for devious scheming. We thought this was our preserve, but apparently we are up against the masters. That's a superb idea, although we think we should allow at least some arms to get through in order to prolong the conflict.

[Jamski]

To Israel : (Secret)Japanese factories are being instructed to produce cheap rifles, grenades, ammuntion, machine guns and mortars. These JapLitetm products are mass produced, fully functional, and have a hidden safety feature to prevent their use against Japanese troops - radio controled explosive charges in the rifle butts.(/Secret)

To Thailand (Secret) : Would you like some weapons to help crush the Indonesians? I can also help with some secret special forces operations against Indonesian targets. In return we would only want some support in a possible future strike against Singapore - Japan's involvement in this must be kept quiet at all costs. We could intercept some shipments to your nation to demonstrate to the world that we are not cooperating.(/secret)

Update!!!

War News

War erupts in France, as German and Italian troops attack the already weakened French defenses.

In the Seychelles, German transport ships have landed and secured the French chain of islands.

In the Middle-East, Israel declared war on the sickly Ottoman Republic. Israeli tanks, back by one of the strongest air forces in the world, blew through the Suez Canal, disrupting ottoman trade and naval forces. With the Ottoman Navy split in two, the Israeli navy engaged the Mediterranean half, destroying it.

In South East Asia, Thailand and Indonesia erupt into armed conflict, with neither side gaining much. Disease is rampant and attrition high, but their leaders won’t budge on the issue.

African war begins! British troops roll over the outdated and outmatched middle African forces. With a brilliant battle plan, the Middle African army is almost destroyed. In the South though, South African tanks rumbled through Zaire and have reached Chad, in an effort to protect their ally.

Iran joined Israel and have captured the major cities of Mosul, Basra, and the all important oil fields.

In the Western Hemisphere, all is quiet…

[GeneralTacticus]

To Japan (secret): We would be intereste din purchasing some of the weapons you are producing, although we would be unlikely to use them - we prefer to equip our troops with higher-quality weapons. However, they would be very useful to us in arming our proxies in various nations if we want our involvement to be secret, or if we don't want to send more valuable weapons. (/secret)

To: Japan

Hand over the Celebes and New Guinea,or face a familiar weapon on your soil! (this is an alternate history NES, but most of WW2 still happened)

[Jamski]

Japan to India : We are in no way threatened by your claims. You may have nuclear weapons, but you have no delivery system. Our massive fleets and enormous air forces will never allow your evil weapons of death to be deployed. We refuse your offer. We see no need to make war against the Indian people. Our airstrikes have only targeted the weapons that fired upon our unarmed merchant shipping.

(secret orders) : Tell the scientists working on my secret project to hurry up a bit.

-Emperor Jamshikoto

[Methril]

WoA, you need to pm me your secret project,because I don't know what it is.

To:Japan
From:India

Do you doubt our delivery system? We have ways (its not by airplane or missile). Now, listen to our demands!

[Jamski]

Its a secret - that's why - PM is sent.

To India : Do your worst, but do not expect Japan to give in to your words because they are backed by nuclear weapons.
