You could always lob lob food over the strait of Dover from France. Anyways, the ERE begins consolidating its resources for more domestic uses, and stockpiling stuff that it doesn't use atm. - Research starts on a ballistic missle shield system and whatever. Bunkers still being constructed in the 'hostile' border regions (ERE-Egypt, ERE-Iran). Also, long range artillery being set up on the coast of the Red Sea, just in case I need to lob some crap at Rocco in the future. Also mines being placed in the waters of Bab-el-Mandeb, which is now renamed to Constantine Strait (because I'll never remember its actual name). Also, artillery base is being constructed on Perim Island, as well as naval patrols and a radar station. Coast of Arabia getting bunkers as well. 20,000 troops are garrisoned in Roman Pakistan. Also I'm invading this thing: 20,000 troops or whatever gets me the isles.
