Status: offline 		Hi Mike,

I haven't decided yet.

There are options:

1. North Pacific - not likely due to my feint prompting Faber to turn the area into a fortress.

2. Wake/Eniwetok - still an option.

3. Tarawa/Nanomea - option.

4. Solomans - option.

5. NG - not likely due to the slow slogging process up the land mass.

6. Timor - option due to me having total air superiority.

First things first though. I'm going to get all my damaged ships to the right ports. Then we can see what I have to move my combat ready LCU's where I want them. Then we can get the shipping there etc. In the meantime my CV's are to go raiding. Not saying where on this one. I want it to be a surprise for all As I say though i'm going to wait until i'm stocked with Hellcats and I have my 4th CV TF operational - CV Bunker Hill, CV Intrepid, 2 x CVL's.

The Solomon route seems to be the most problematic route of advance if Faber has build up the airfields there because his LBA is probably still intact, thus simply let his troops rot on this malaria-ridden islands!

A mainly sub action day with IJN ASW assets trying their best but failing:

SS Whale was hunted throughout the day by 2 x DD and 3 x MSW. The DD's dropped 10's of DC's some of which landed near. Damge was slight (22 SYS). Returning to Midway.

SS Sawfish fired 4 fish at MSW w.7 60 miles NW od San Marcelino......which missed.

SS Grampus was briefly attacked by DD Makinami 180 miles SE of Hong Kong. Light damage was sutained.

---------------

Damaged ships repairing, flooding decreasing, CV's moving to PH for R & R, troops replenishing.......

Curses! SS Shark II attacked her first enemy ship today. BB Hyuga no less! Unfortunately the 4 torpedo's all missed their target. The attack happened inbetween Truk and Guam. This puppy was damaged during Operation Falcon and is probably returning to Japan for repairs. Annoyingly 2 x CVE's were also located in this TF:

BB Hyuga
DD Akebono
DD Ariake
DD Yugure
DD Yamakaze
DD Shigure
DD Onami
CVE Unyo
CVE Taiyo

She is relocating a further 120 miles north to try and catch these guys (I doubt it).

-------------

Some mine's laid at Eniwetok by SS O19 had success today. PC Fumi Maru was left heavily damaged after hitting one of my babies

-------------

The time is nearing in Burma for another attempt at Myitkyina:

Ground combat at Myitkyina

Allied Bombardment attack

Attacking force 100041 troops, 963 guns, 468 vehicles, Beginning Assault
Value = 2429

Defending force 134341 troops, 668 guns, 0 vehicles, Beginning Assault Value
= 2502


Japanese ground losses:
251 casualties reported
Guns lost 1

--------------

CV Lexington received her Hellcat's today

Tomorrow an AK and a DE arrive at San Francisco.

Managed to sneak this in this morning. Wow I found a spare 20 minutes before work!

Bad weather prevented many air strikes being launched. Only a raid against Mandalay and a few bombing runs on IJA troop positions were carried out.

---------------

3 x APD's were sub hunting west of Attu Island. I had forgot to order CAP for them and Betties were launched from Paramushiro. APD Little unfortunately sank quickly. APD Stringham is limping back to Attu heavily damaged. APD McKean is fine and is returning to Attu. Hmm.....

--------------

CV Intrepid arrives in 10 days time, CVL Langley in 15 days time

2 x DD, an SS, an AK, an LCI, an LST and an AP arrive at San Francisco tomorrow

The end of my busy week! Still got a few things to iron out but a more regular turnaround should occur from me (Faber is busy over the next 2 weeks).

------------------

1 of my ASW groups found their victim - I-5, inbetween Fuji and Noumea. After hunting and dropping DC's throughout the day the Japanese submarine was reportedly left heavily damaged. My ships are returning to Noumea after a job well done.

SS Sawfish was detected but not attacked by MSW Toshi Maru #5 just off the west coast of Luzon.

SS Billfish successfully damaged a freighter (Nitiai Maru) SW of Hong Kong.

------------------

A token raid by Libs from Attu to Paramushiro achieved little. 29 enemy fighters was on CAP and shot down 2 bombers.

Air raids by me across Burma.

------------------

All remaining cruisers and destroyers have left Australia bound for Noumea, then PH..............

Firstly, is there any information or screenies that you guys want at the moment?

Good news. Intel received confirmation that SS I-5 sank after the damage it received yesterday from my ASW forces.

SS Tambor was attacked by a couple of MSW's in the strait between Borneo and Sulawesi. 3 DC's landed nearby causing some minor damage. She is low on fuel as is and will remain on station for a few more days before returning to Darwin for R & R.

----------------

Heavy bombing raids in Burma. An example of what the IJA is receiving on the Mandalay rail line:

Day Air attack on 30th Division, at 34,28


Allied aircraft
Spitfire Vb x 6
Beaufighter VIC x 23
Beaufighter Mk 21 x 10
P-38G Lightning x 47


No Allied losses

Japanese ground losses:
187 casualties reported
Guns lost 10
Vehicles lost 1

----------------------

The IJA tried to force their way through the defences on the Mandalay Rail Line but were repulsed with HEAVY casualties. No breakthrough occured and my men are in good spirit:

Ground combat at 34,28

Japanese Deliberate attack

Attacking force 261524 troops, 2685 guns, 984 vehicles, Assault Value = 5631

Defending force 87325 troops, 703 guns, 982 vehicles, Assault Value = 2132

Japanese max assault: 4911 - adjusted assault: 4149

Allied max defense: 2221 - adjusted defense: 4581

Japanese assault odds: 0 to 1


Japanese ground losses:
11595 casualties reported
Guns lost 296
Vehicles lost 52

Allied ground losses:
1023 casualties reported
Guns lost 37
Vehicles lost 3

--------------------

All active MSW's and transports in Australia are forming up to move to Sydney and Brisbane. From there I decide where I will form up my transports (from Midway/PH) to embark LCU's from the South Pacific for offensive operations over the next few months.

CV Intrepid arrives in 8 days

An LST and an AK arrive tomorrow as does a PV1n squadron. A newly arrived Wellington squadron is retraining on Liberators at Calcutta before moving to the front for combat operations.

LOL Pauk. I'll find the git eventually and send him to meet his ancestors

--------------

My subs performed well today.

Especially SS Pogy. Located 300 miles ENE of Pagan to interceot shipping moving to Wake and the Marshalls she located a Transport convoy in the early hours of the morning. She picked out a transport and 3 torpedos hit home on the empty transport Bokuyo Maru. She quickly sank. Only 1 DD was escorting the convoy which failed to locate Pogy.

In the atfernoon she attacked a further AP Batavia Maru and heavily damaged her with a torpedo.

SS Tambor also got into the action. Despite being low on fuel and having a few battle scars she heavily damaged the empty freighter Nitiren Maru in the Sulawesi Strait.

------------------

Heavy air attacks by me in Burma.

------------------

An AK arrives at San Francisco tomorrow

Here's some upcoming air reinforcements. Some lovely Corsairs and Hellcats in there

----------------

A fairly quiet day with no sub contacts and only some bombing raids in Burma and China.

----------------

My men at Myitkyina are to 'have another go' tomorrow. After weeks of bombardment from the ground and air and with probably limited re-supply lets see how much fight the Japanese have left in them here. Here's the intel and recon info gathering strength levels:

7th June 1943: Defending force 153841 troops, 1064 guns, 11 vehicles, Beginning Assault Value = 2934
24th June 1943: Defending force 146977 troops, 886 guns, 9 vehicles, Beginning Assault Value = 2780
27th July 1943: Defending force 132293 troops, 619 guns, 0 vehicles, Assault Value = 2455

In the past month the Japanese strength has dwindled by: 14864 men, 267 guns and 9 vehicles

A fairly quiet day with no sub contacts and only some bombing raids in Burma and China.

----------------

My men at Myitkyina are to 'have another go' tomorrow. After weeks of bombardment from the ground and air and with probably limited re-supply lets see how much fight the Japanese have left in them here. Here's the intel and recon info gathering strength levels:

7th June 1943: Defending force 153841 troops, 1064 guns, 11 vehicles, Beginning Assault Value = 2934
24th June 1943: Defending force 146977 troops, 886 guns, 9 vehicles, Beginning Assault Value = 2780
27th July 1943: Defending force 132293 troops, 619 guns, 0 vehicles, Assault Value = 2455

In the past month the Japanese strength has dwindled by: 14864 men, 267 guns and 9 vehicles



Might be a good idea to rest your troops for one turn with out doing any bombardment attacks before you do your 'have another go' deliberate attack.
