OOC: Forgot I invaded Australia. Whoops.

IC: The next days of the invasion were incredibly sluggish, with storms turning the entire west coast of Australia into seemingly a swamp. Vehicles couldn't move, troops couldn't march, and aircraft couldn't take off. For nearly a week, neither side could do much of anything.

Fortunately for the NAR, resistance groups had managed to cut Fed supply lines, sabotage enemy equipment, and demoralize enemy troops. Also fortunate was the fact that the CN sent in reinforcements consisting of several ships, 20,000 Marines, and 40,000 Army troops, all battle hardened from battles in the US. NAR reinforcements consisting of 35,000 Marines and 100,000 ACA troops also arrived to join the fight.

Finally, on the seventh day, the skies cleared in the afternoon, and attacks could commence. However, the NAR was shocked to find nearly 1,230,000 Fed troops waiting. NAR planes took to the skies, gaining the edge, slaughtering Fed aircraft getting ready to take off, and quickly gaining air superiority. The next step was to bomb enemy positions heavliy, attempting to cause as much damage as possible before the Fed troops begin their assault to retake Perth.

On the ground, Coalition troops prepare to go on the defensive, constructing earthen works with great speed and efficiency, while some more reinforced structures are built farther back. Miles of trenches are dug in mere hours, along with pill boxes, fox holes, booby traps, and underground tunnels. Once night falls and Fed troops are distracted by heavy bombing by allied bombers, landmines, caltrops, spike pits, and other obstacles are placed in "no man's land" to slow the Fed advance. Then, allied troops bunker down and prepare for an onslaught.

At sea, ships prepare to fire their shells and missiles at Fed troops for close support, and plans are made to get more reinforcements sent in, along with evacuation plans, should things go terribly wrong. Resistance forces still are wrecking havoc behind enemy lines, sabotaging enemy supply lines and cutting communication, in efforts to slow the Fed assault.

OOC: Harmon, Proud, somebody, your turn.
