May 28th and 29th. Who's all gonna go? C'mon I know I'm not the only one. I see that many from the A5OG are going to make it, anybody else here plan on attending?

Popular history records the start of the Second World War in 1939 but the ravages of war were experienced by the Chinese years earlier when Japan invaded Manchuria in 1931. Beginning that year, Japan began its march across Southeast Asia and slowly encircled China, They gradually cut it off from the outside world.

Allied forces endured disease, monsoons, and Japanese attacks to build the infamous 1,100-mile (1,800-kilometer) supply line that still winds through three nations—and old soldiers' memories.

The construction of the Burma Road over forbidding, monsoon-swept terrain was an astonishing feat. No less impressive, though, was the other way supplies were transported from India into China during World War II, both before and after the land route was opened. Goods traveled via an airlift that became known as the Hump, and the accomplishments of those who kept the Hump route up and running are truly remarkable. With its immense manpower resources, the Allies -- joined by the United States in 1941 -- realized the importance of keeping the Chinese in the war and to that end created the CBI theatre in an attempt to stop the advancing Japanese armies.

This scenario is inspired by the actual events that occurred during WW2. Come join forces with JAPAN as they attempt to occupy and hold as much territory as they can or with the ALLIES defending against the Japanese invasion, as they construct one of the most vital supply lines in history.
