AFTER ACTION REPORTS FOR 04/02/42
Thx guys. I was not complaining btw. I was just wondering what was he doing cause i've never seen this kind of attacks...
Anyway. While the american pacific fleet is R&R in the west coast harbours, the war, as PzB says, grinds on
From Naga he managed to advance towards Manila with a strong force. He also brought to Luzon the 31st Division. So now he has nearly 3000 AVs at Luzon. My fear was that my forces could be cut in 2 pieces at Clark and Manila so i withdrew my forces at Clark and moved them all to Manila, managing to bring every single supply point with me this time.
His naval and air assets keep on pounding Karachi. Supplies are down to 308,000 whle the AVs are stable around 2600.
At Changsha the same old story. He bombed me with all his chinese air wings and keeps on moving in new forces. Tomorrow he will probably re-open his comm.lines again, pushing back my guerrill unit N-E of Changsha.
There's really nothing much else to report....soon Karachi's and Manila's sieges will begin and we'll also see how Changsha will defend against those overwhelming odds...
