VICTORY AGAINST AMERICAN DOGS

The American fleet lies in ruins in the waters of Pearl Harbour today as the heroes of the Imperial Japanese Navy struck a decisive blow against our oppressors. In all some five battleships and countless smaller vessels were annihilated by our pilots with minimal losses.
As our brave forces march across the Pacific, the United States cowers before us, paralyzed like their President and they will soon join their precious battleships at the graveyard of history.
This is a great day for the Japanese Empire! Banzai for the Emperor!!

In other news, the office of the Emperor has denied giving Japanese pilots involved in the Pearl Harbour attack express orders to open fire on any 'stupid Americans involved in love triangles'. More on this story later.

THE BATTLE OF MOSCOW

After weeks of fierce fighting, The brave comrades near Moscow finally manage to Reconnect and secure the proud city. Isolating and destroying 4 axis units. Yet another show of the bravery by the soviet people!

All along the front lines Axis units are Frozen on their tracks. The snow and frost has hampered any offensive operations, and put fritz in his place, also showing their incompetence in war.

RESUPPLY OF LENINGRAD

The harsh soviet winter has also allowed Leningrad to be resupplied and help our comrades in need. As they fight through the rubble of the once and still proud city defending against the few small axis attacks, obviously the axis are showing their true face. a face of cowardism, who cannot even take on the final defenders.

Each day, a step closer to victory!

BATTLESHIP SUFFERS TRAGIC ACCIDENT IN OPERATIONS

The Battleship Mutsu suffered a tragic explosion in her forward battery today whilst on patrol and sunk with heavy loss of life. This marks the first casualty by the Imperial Japanese Navy although it is stressed that this was not due to enemy action but through a lack of safety awareness on board the ammunition storage lockers. Battleship captains have been urged to go on a three day Health and Safety Awareness course held by the Emperor entitled "High Explosives and You." with practical demonstrations being provided by random Chinese civilians.

Japan Bloodied in the Gilberts

Following an unfortunate string of reverses in the last several months following Japan's surprise attack on Allied forces late last year, the Japanese have been handed a bloody defeat by the US Navy in a naval battle off the Gilbert Islands. After intercepting a Japanese invasion fleet headed for the island of Tamana, the US Task Force launched a devastating air attack which left a Japanese battleship dead in the water and sinking, forcing the Japanese fleet to abandon its plan to take the island and withdraw. The 33rd Infantry Division continues to hold Tamana, which remains the Allies' last foothold in the Gilberts.

Analysts are confident that this defeat is the first sign of the tide turning against the Japanese advance, as the US' continually increasing military and economic power is beginning to rapidly outpace Japan's.

US PARALYZED BY JAPANESE EMPIRE

Japanese forces have successfully conquered the Soloman islands, the Gilbert Islands and the Dutch Islands with no significant American opposition. The US command seems paralyzed with no way of defeating the Japanese steamroller as their fleet scatters before us and their army melts away before the heat of our fury!
Meanwhile in the west, swathes of Burma and India fall to our forces as they smash through the weak British defences.
Truly nothing can stop the might of the Empire of Japan!

Meanwhile, Emperor Oberon has denied that he has created a new group known as the 'SOS-dan' in order to investigate supernatural happenings such as espers, time traveling agents and agents from the great universal computer.

US SOLDIERS RECRUITED TO HELP FEED GOAT POPULATION

The United States Marine Corp has been employed by Imperial Japan to help feed goat herds on the remote island of Santa Cruz. Mistakenly labelled a 'successful invasion' by American propaganda, the goat handlers smuggled weapons onto the island and are now attempting to weaponise the goat herds to use against the peace-loving nation of Japan.
The Emperor has stated that the weaponization of goats is a crime against humanity and all reason and has announced that the Imperial Japanese Navy will deploy immediately to rescue the goats that have been taken hostage and drive the goat-handlers from Santa Cruz.
Meanwhile the Emperor has denied reports that a section of secret service agents were deployed to Egypt in a search for something called "Super-Mega Ultra Chicken", supposedly this 'Chicken' is a rare collectable card which possesses magical powers, but no-one knows anything more than that.

OPERATION SEPPUKU LAUNCHED!

The Emperor today announced that Operation Seppuku, the invasion of the Soviet Union, was underway. This news came as a great shock to many in the Japanese High Command which currently represents a termite nest which has been kicked by a giant.
When our reporter asked the Emperor why he has named the operation after the ritual suicide technique of the Samurai, the Emperor promoted the reporter to the rank of Chinese civilian and had him shot.

In other news, the Emperors attempt to animate a suit of armour purchased from the Third Reich has failed, so he has called upon representatives from Germanys Thule Society to assist in solving his conumdrum.
