AFTER ACTION REPORTS FOR 03/29/42 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Sub attack near Wake Island [USA] at 85,72 Japanese Ships AK Tosan Maru DD Akebono Allied Ships SS Greenling -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Day Air attack on Keijo [Chosen] , at 59,36 Allied aircraft Blenheim IV x 4 No Allied losses -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Day Air attack on Karachi [Pakistan] , at 21,3 Japanese aircraft A6M2/Ki-65 Zeke x 16 Me 264 Angel x 112 Ki-46-II/C7M2 Dinah x 3 Japanese aircraft losses Me 264 Angel: 17 damaged Allied Ships AK Empire Rennie, Bomb hits 5, on fire, heavy damage AP Empire Chivalry, Bomb hits 6, on fire, heavy damage AK Empire Raven, Bomb hits 6, on fire, heavy damage AK Annalock, Bomb hits 8, on fire, heavy damage AK Empire Foam, Bomb hits 5, on fire, heavy damage AK Empire Ocean, Bomb hits 7, on fire, heavy damage AK Empire Oryx, Bomb hits 6, on fire, heavy damage AP Empress of Asia, Bomb hits 3, on fire, heavy damage SS Triton, Bomb hits 12, on fire, heavy damage AK Washingtonian, Bomb hits 7, on fire, heavy damage AK Empire Star, Bomb hits 4 AK Empire Impala, Bomb hits 8, on fire, heavy damage AK Fairfield City, Bomb hits 7, on fire, heavy damage AK Empire Homer, Bomb hits 6, on fire, heavy damage AK City of Manchester, Bomb hits 7, on fire, heavy damage Allied ground losses: 5 casualties reported Guns lost 1 Port hits 19 Port fuel hits 4 Port supply hits 3 Now THAT really worked well. 97 bomb hits on enemy shipping in just one turn isn't something to be sniffed at. This should definitely lure the Allied CVs out to cover their remaining transports as they flee. 3 of my own CVEs and CVLs are lying in wait with the 42 fighters of the Yamato Daitai ( my best fighter unit ) and over 40 torpedo bombers. My Kate losses will be heavy but I expect my fighters to butcher their strikes and my Kates and Jeans to get a couple of torpedo hits on their carriers. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Day Air attack on Kalgan [Cent China] , at 54,27 Japanese aircraft Ki-43-I Oscar x 6 Allied aircraft SB-2M x 85 No Japanese losses Allied aircraft losses SB-2M: 5 destroyed, 7 damaged Resources hits 11 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Day Air attack on Yangku [Cent China] , at 51,29 Japanese aircraft Ki-43-I Oscar x 22 Me-109E-4 Mike x 14 Ki-51 Sonia x 49 Ki-15II/C5M2 Babs x 3 No Japanese losses Resources hits 21 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Day Air attack on Nanchang [C China] , at 48,38 Japanese aircraft Me-109E-4 Mike x 77 Ki-15II/C5M2 Babs x 1 No Japanese losses -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Day Air attack on Nanchang [C China] , at 48,38 Japanese aircraft A6M2/Ki-65 Zeke x 32 No Japanese losses -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Day Air attack on Batan Islands [PH] , at 46,47 Japanese aircraft A6M2/Ki-65 Zeke x 4 A6M2-N Rufe-FF x 3 D3A2 Val/Ki-52 x 24 B4Y1 Jean x 14 B5N2/Ki-47 Kate x 31 E8N2 Dave x 84 E13A1 Jake x 15 Ki-15II/C5M2 Babs x 8 No Japanese losses Airbase supply hits 2 Runway hits 29 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Day Air attack on Suchan [AMUR] , at 66,34 Japanese aircraft B5N2/Ki-47 Kate x 37 G3M2/Ki-42 Nell x 37 G4M1/Ki-50 Betty x 53 Allied aircraft no flights Japanese aircraft losses G3M2/Ki-42 Nell: 1 damaged G4M1/Ki-50 Betty: 2 destroyed, 2 damaged Allied aircraft losses B-26A Marauder: 1 destroyed Pe-2: 3 destroyed PBY-5 Catalina: 2 destroyed Airbase hits 15 Airbase supply hits 5 Runway hits 73 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Day Air attack on AA Papuan Infantry Battalion, at 55,93 Japanese aircraft A5M4 Claude x 12 No Japanese losses -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Day Air attack on Pp Army 3/12th Battalion, at 45,49 Japanese aircraft A6M2/Ki-65 Zeke x 5 A5M4 Claude x 9 No Japanese losses -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Day Air attack on USN 118th Base Force, at 46,47 Japanese aircraft A6M2-N Rufe-FF x 4 D3A2 Val/Ki-52 x 16 B5N2/Ki-47 Kate x 10 No Japanese losses -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Day Air attack on USMC 2nd Parachute Battalion, at 64,48 Japanese aircraft D3A2 Val/Ki-52 x 29 No Japanese losses Allied ground losses: 12 casualties reported Guns lost 1 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Day Air attack on TF at 114,71 Japanese aircraft A6M2/Ki-65 Zeke x 10 G3M2/Ki-42 Nell x 16 G4M1/Ki-50 Betty x 15 Me-109E-4 Mike x 3 Allied aircraft F4F-4/FM-1 Wildcat x 25 Japanese aircraft losses G3M2/Ki-42 Nell: 1 destroyed G4M1/Ki-50 Betty: 1 destroyed Allied aircraft losses F4F-4/FM-1 Wildcat: 2 destroyed, 1 damaged Allied Ships AK Yochow, Torpedo hits 1, on fire, heavy damage -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Day Air attack on Suchan [AMUR] , at 66,34 Japanese aircraft Me-109E-4 Mike x 37 Ki-15II/C5M2 Babs x 1 Ki-46-II/C7M2 Dinah x 1 No Japanese losses -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Day Air attack on TF at 55,44 Allied aircraft Sea Hurricane x 3 Beaufort VII x 15 Lancer/P-43 x 7 Allied aircraft losses Beaufort VII: 1 destroyed, 1 damaged Japanese Ships AP Koshu Maru #3, Torpedo hits 1, on fire, heavy damage AP Zukai Maru AP Kikuryu Maru, Torpedo hits 1 AP Ryuosan Maru, Torpedo hits 1, on fire, heavy damage Japanese ground losses: 32 casualties reported Guns lost 4 The Allied propensity to base bombers in coastal China comes back to hurt me again. I am going to have to close those airfields with bomber strikes and then work things from there... too many targets, too few viable bomber units. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Day Air attack on TF, near Karachi [Pakistan] at 21,3 Japanese aircraft G4M1/Ki-50 Betty x 11 Japanese aircraft losses G4M1/Ki-50 Betty: 1 damaged Allied Ships AP Empress of Australia, Torpedo hits 1, on fire AP Devonshire, Torpedo hits 3, on fire, heavy damage Allied ground losses: 23 casualties reported I think these ships might be trying to evacuate cadres from Karachi. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- TF 27 troops unloading over beach at Magadan [Siberia], 83,23 Japanese ground losses: 167 casualties reported -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Ground combat at Manila/Cavite [PH] Japanese Bombardment attack Attacking force 54935 troops, 1100 guns, 433 vehicles, Assault Value = 1225 Defending force 79166 troops, 1733 guns, 794 vehicles, Assault Value = 2580 Allied ground losses: 49 casualties reported Guns lost 5 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Ground combat at Delhi [India] Japanese Bombardment attack Attacking force 37686 troops, 504 guns, 7 vehicles, Assault Value = 1342 Defending force 51480 troops, 1191 guns, 266 vehicles, Assault Value = 1485 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Ground combat at Denpasar [Bali] Japanese Shock attack Attacking force 3458 troops, 68 guns, 9 vehicles, Assault Value = 137 Defending force 3708 troops, 0 guns, 0 vehicles, Assault Value = 1 Japanese max assault: 232 - adjusted assault: 234 Allied max defense: 0 - adjusted defense: 27 Japanese assault odds: 8 to 1 (fort level 0) Japanese forces CAPTURE Denpasar [Bali] base !!!

Unfortunately a British Base Force and Chinese Division are situated there.
