Thanks for the comments guys! As Feinder said Erstad can eat you alive! It's time start think more agressive defense. Jarvis Island is good idea but the problem is the fact that he holds Canton Island . My intel indicates that he has 10 troops there so counter offensive is out of the question at the moment. Also KB showed up again... more about that later. Report from 15th through 17th of February Central Pacific KB showed up here ...and made couple of succesfull hits on allied transport TF near Christmas Island. Day Air attack on TF, near Christmas Island at 112,89 Japanese aircraft A6M2 Zero x 24 D3A Val x 15 B5N Kate x 42 Japanese aircraft losses D3A Val: 1 damaged B5N Kate: 1 destroyed, 6 damaged Allied Ships AP Harris, Bomb hits 1, Torpedo hits 1, on fire AP Tasker H. Bliss, Torpedo hits 1, on fire, heavy damage AP Henderson, Bomb hits 1, Torpedo hits 1, on fire AP President Polk, Bomb hits 2, on fire DD Brooks, Bomb hits 1, on fire AP Ruth Alexander, Torpedo hits 2, on fire, heavy damage AP President Fillmore, Torpedo hits 2, on fire, heavy damage AP Crescent City, Torpedo hits 1, on fire DD Kennison, Torpedo hits 2, on fire, heavy damage -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Day Air attack on TF at 114,89 Japanese aircraft A6M2 Zero x 35 D3A Val x 15 B5N Kate x 42 No Japanese losses Allied Ships AP Crescent City, Bomb hits 1, on fire AP President Fillmore, Bomb hits 13, on fire, heavy damage AP Harris, Bomb hits 7, on fire, heavy damage AP Tasker H.

I have now moved 55 P40B's and 70 B25's to Christmas Island. Let's just see whether he will stick around here next turn too. If so than he can expect heavy LBA assault on KB!!! North Pacific China 35 enemy units reported at near Changsa. I have moved more troops in here in order defend the city. Also if allied intel is correct he planning an assault on Wuchow too. Philippines Manila holds for another turn... Ground combat at Manila Japanese Deliberate attack Attacking force 102442 troops, 1158 guns, 136 vehicles Defending force 74717 troops, 614 guns, 205 vehicles Japanese assault odds: 0 to 1 (fort level 4) Japanese ground losses: 4957 casualties reported Guns lost 174 Vehicles lost 15 Allied ground losses: 644 casualties reported Guns lost 11 Vehicles lost 2 Australia, NZ & South Pacific Lautem falls. Japanese have now total control of Timor! He also keeps invading those empty bases at New Guinea. DEI First Japanese infantry units are nearing Soerebaja. India & Burma
