All TF's are going to unload while I consider next moves.

1st Aus Corps is being held at Manila until my next move is clear

A. Northern strike at Sasebo
B. Southern Strike at Shikoku
C. Deep Strike further East
D. Attack Ananami
E. Attack Formosa

A. and C. for all the reasons when I changed my plan earlier I still view as to risky.

I have until March 46 so 5 months to achieve something.

B. is still my favoured option although D is less risky and may need to be rescored.

E is possible but I may do it as a subsidiary opreration for a reinforced 1st Aus Corps instead - i..e dont divert them to India.

I think despite everything I am going to continue with B but after all my troops are unloaded I withh reconsider.

Does anyone know when the game ends is it 1st March or 1st April ? - it makes a difference as to how risky I am.

If its 1st March I am going on with original plan of a straight assault on Shikoku and sod the consequences

If its 1st April I am looking at Apanananami and then a follow on invasion somewhere in Feb 46.

Status: offline 		OK in India things are moving along nicely armoured spearheads are driving for the Bombay Road junction.

A reinforced Division has diverted to take Panaji and secure my seaward flank. c 1,200 AV are still driving north.

The blocking force at Lucknow is digging in in the forest.

Basically I want to isolate Bombay as soon as possible as the reduction process will take a lot of time. Round the clock air assault bombardment TF's and a steady bombardment attack will eventually take any base.

Most of my army will divert to take other bases and cities in India while th esiege force operates.

Status: offline 		As I have decided to hold 1st Aus Corps in Manila for now and not to divert more strength to India I probably dont have enough to take the bases quickly I am summoning troops from all corners and have pulled in 1/3 of a Chinese Corps to garrison Madras.

I may pull in the rest of the Corps (all paid for in PP's) to garisson my LOC

I have over 10,000 PP's in the bank but have agreed with PZB that I wont just buy out the Russians and use them to support invasion of the HI.

Not a lot to say Panaji should fall quickly I know this is a sideshow but I am really enjoying it !!!

Bombay looks to be well garrisoned so unlikely to fall anytime soon.

Panaji fell and my troops have cut off Bombay looks like a lot of Japanese inside little chance of taking it until its been heavily attrited I will move a couple of Divs in and send in all the arty I have in theatre after they have been reduced a bit I will attack.

In the meantime I will take back more of India with my other troops and secure my LOC - no real rush in this theatre.

In the West my TF's have arrived at Ishieak.

They will be heading East soon only a few days steaming to the objective

Status: offline 		OMG what a turn...

OK I screwed the pooch and didnt realise that Apanami was an Attol - Idiot me. I assumed PZB would either play it long or throw the kitchen sink at me.

Well you all know PZB - guess what 1 kitchen sink incoming !!!

Looks like the whole dammed IJN thats left came out to play anyway I was sorta ready for them but what a turn.

The IJN went down but not without taking a hell of a bite out of the USN - not many ships are sunk but I have a LOT of cripples.

Pretty much every Japanese ship is now sank but they put up a hell of a fight.

Stacking no more than 5 Fleet CV's is a pain as reaction moves are dispersing my CAP I have now convertewd every TF to be an escort TF and ordered all but 5 CV's back to Isheak - no point in risking more I can only stack 5 plus CVE's.

I need to wait another day for my disruption to fade and my remaining undamaged BB's to rearm from the AE's at Isheak.

As I have a day or so I have odered LBA to crucify Okinawa - PZB is obviously basing fighters there so I wat to eliminate the threat as its the only Shinden Sweep Base in range of Apananami - If I was PZB I would stick 300 Shindens there and sed 150 to Sweep Apanami that way he could attrit my Carriers if I was thick enough to send em back in.

So every Black Widow, B29, P51, P38 and B24 I can raise are going to attack Okinawa tomorrow.

All my CAG's are set to 0% naval search and all my TBM's and DB's are also set to 0% search - lastly every fighter in the fleet is set to range 0 - The USAAF will need to get the job done alone...

Hell of a turn
