Did a lot of scouting work, rescued some prisoners, had Staff Sergeant Robert Cornwall sending them to Certain Death a number of times..lots of sand, bad chlorinated tea, their efforts really not amounting to all that much (I know, this may seem bad. But High Realism, folks. A single australian in WW1 bayoneted 2 whole trenches of Germans in flanders before they had him at gunpoint, where they surrendered. How much did it do to end the war? not a lot.) was all good. As a bit of fun for the last mission I had them all off helping the Pirate of Tobruk load up his ship with things from a small resistance-led town in greece.. only to find the nazi's had taken it over and the place was under lockdown. All good fun, especially when the crates they finally managed to get (After numerous whorehouse 'missions') opened up to rather illegal amounts of gold plates, paintings and other things stolen from greek temples around the place <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f600.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":D" title="Big grin    :D"  data-smilie="8"data-shortname=":D" />.It was good fun overall, but now I'm taking a break. Next up will be in late 42 or early 43 where the guys will be TOG commando's in PNG.Aaron2: IF Britain lost the BoB, I would have to ask how partially we are talking. All factories bombed into oblivion? Ships destroyed? Etc?What would Australia do, hey. Well - first priority is protection of allies. The Desert conflict would have to be left to rot, which would mean full Italian control in the area unless the Italians manage to stuff up even that. Australia would attempt to help Britain, but how exactly would be a question of how destroyed it was. Remember that the Yellow Peril will soon start to happen, leaving half Australias troops halfway across the globe. What would the british troops in Singapore and so on do? Ship out to britain, leaving the way to australia paved with gold. I'd say America would join the war much earlier, Unless my reading of Hitler is true and he merely smashes the military might of Britain, leaving his push for Russia a lot more troops. America joining the war early would still have it's problems - time to reach and so on. Lightning attacks with greater numbers and fuel would probably be able to get to Moscow and take Stalingrad. Hmmmmm...But I think I got off the topic. Have fun with your game <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f600.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":D" title="Big grin    :D"  data-smilie="8"data-shortname=":D" /> India/South Africa - also a fair bit of british sentiment, but to be honest I don't know enough to make a judgement.*Edit. I doubt any australian could have bayonetted any germans in trenches in WW2.*</blockquote>
