AFTER ACTION REPORTS FOR 02/27/43 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Naval bombardment of Wyndham, at 30,86 Allied aircraft no flights Allied aircraft losses SBD Dauntless: 2 destroyed P-38G Lightning: 2 destroyed F4U-1 Corsair: 10 destroyed Spitfire Vb: 2 destroyed PB2Y Coronado: 1 destroyed F4F-4 Wildcat: 4 destroyed TBF Avenger: 1 destroyed Beaufort I: 1 destroyed Swordfish: 2 destroyed F4F-3 Wildcat: 1 destroyed Japanese Ships BB Musashi BB Nagato Allied ground losses: 13796 casualties reported Guns lost 196 Vehicles lost 48 Airbase hits 16 Airbase supply hits 1 Runway hits 49 now I would consider this being a nuke. Well, using the float plane trick obviously helps, even though we didn´t completely knock out the airfield... only one supply hit doesn´t make me cheer either... but I shouldn´t complain when getting such an excellent result... -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Naval bombardment of Wallis Island, at 93,107 Japanese aircraft no flights Japanese aircraft losses Ki-49 Helen: 4 destroyed B5N Kate: 4 destroyed G4M1 Betty: 7 destroyed G3M Nell: 5 destroyed H8K Emily: 1 destroyed Allied Ships BB West Virginia BB Colorado BB Maryland Japanese ground losses: 1000 casualties reported Guns lost 18 Airbase hits 12 Airbase supply hits 5 Runway hits 59 as you can see, the Allied float plane trick works 100% also. While I refused to do it in the past (except one time), Miller keeps using his float planes en masse for recon before going in with his bombardment TFs and it seems to be working 90% of the time... -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Naval bombardment of Wallis Island, at 93,107 Japanese aircraft no flights Japanese aircraft losses H8K Emily: 2 destroyed B5N Kate: 1 destroyed Allied Ships BB Nevada BB Oklahoma BB Arizona BB California Japanese ground losses: 1331 casualties reported Guns lost 11 Airbase hits 12 Airbase supply hits 5 Runway hits 90 Port supply hits 1 well, there was nothing left that could fly and the airfield and airbase are 100% damaged now... thanks to the Kingfishers... -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ASW attack at 99,110 Japanese Ships SS I-3, hits 7 Allied Ships DD Gansevoort DD Frazier DD Waller DD Philip DD Jenkins sub is in danger of sinking after one hit and 6 near misses... Miller mentioned how bad his ASW TFs have been performing but IMO they are as deadly as Allied TFs always have been... -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Sub attack at 27,54 Japanese Ships AK Momoha Maru, Torpedo hits 2, on fire, heavy damage Allied Ships SS Wahoo South East of Singapore, the resource loaden big AK is sunk... -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Sub attack near Pago Pago at 98,110 Japanese Ships SS I-32, hits 5, on fire, heavy damage Allied Ships CLAA Ceres, Torpedo hits 1, on fire DD Clark DD Balch DD Selfridge Only one out of 6 torps hits the CLAA and it will surely live on... our sub is killed of course by 3 DDs... -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ASW attack near Pago Pago at 98,110 Japanese Ships SS I-32, hits 4, on fire, heavy damage Allied Ships DD Gansevoort another round and hey, ho, sub sinks... Pretty bad ASW eh? In two days, the enemy sinks one sub and knocks out three more... -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Day Air attack on Pamakasan , at 24,66 Japanese aircraft Ki-44-IIb Tojo x 58 Ki-45 KAIa Nick x 35 No Japanese losses Airbase supply hits 2 Runway hits 24 Aircraft Attacking: 9 x Ki-44-IIb Tojo bombing at 2000 feet -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Day Air attack on Bulla , at 40,75 Japanese aircraft Ki-49 Helen x 153 No Japanese losses Allied ground losses: 1 casualties reported Airbase hits 5 Airbase supply hits 1 Runway hits 85 Aircraft Attacking: 6 x Ki-49 Helen bombing at 6000 feet -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Day Air attack on Lautem , at 33,78 Japanese aircraft Ki-49 Helen x 124 Ki-46-II Dinah x 6 Japanese aircraft losses Ki-49 Helen: 6 damaged Allied ground losses: 10 casualties reported Airbase hits 2 Airbase supply hits 1 Runway hits 56 Port hits 2 Port supply hits 2 Aircraft Attacking: 20 x Ki-49 Helen bombing at 11000 feet -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Day Air attack on Manila , at 43,52 Japanese aircraft A6M3a Zero x 138 Ki-43-Ic Oscar x 70 Ki-44-IIb Tojo x 152 No Japanese losses Airbase hits 8 Airbase supply hits 3 Runway hits 193 Aircraft Attacking: 32 x Ki-44-IIb Tojo bombing at 2000 feet -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Day Air attack on Luganville , at 72,107 Allied aircraft F4F-3 Wildcat x 20 SBD Dauntless x 7 TBF Avenger x 9 Hurricane IIb x 15 P-36A Mohawk x 62 Allied aircraft losses SBD Dauntless: 2 damaged TBF Avenger: 1 destroyed, 1 damaged P-36A Mohawk: 5 damaged Japanese ground losses: 18 casualties reported Airbase hits 2 Runway hits 56 Aircraft Attacking: 22 x P-36A Mohawk bombing at 2000 feet -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Day Air attack on Wallis Island , at 93,107 Japanese aircraft no flights Allied aircraft TBF Avenger x 36 Japanese aircraft losses Ki-49 Helen: 1 destroyed Allied aircraft losses TBF Avenger: 1 damaged Japanese ground losses: 13 casualties reported Runway hits 11 Aircraft Attacking: 27 x TBF Avenger bombing at 10000 feet -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Day Air attack on Wallis Island , at 93,107 Japanese aircraft no flights Allied aircraft PV-1 Ventura x 23 B-25C Mitchell x 3 Japanese aircraft losses Ki-49 Helen: 3 destroyed Airbase hits 4 Runway hits 26 Aircraft Attacking: 3 x PV-1 Ventura bombing at 10000 feet -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Day Air attack on Pago Pago , at 98,110 Allied aircraft F4F-4 Wildcat x 12 TBF Avenger x 29 OS2U-3 Kingfisher x 5 Allied aircraft losses TBF Avenger: 1 destroyed, 3 damaged OS2U-3 Kingfisher: 2 damaged Port fuel hits 2 Port supply hits 1 Aircraft Attacking: 3 x TBF Avenger bombing at 5000 feet -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Day Air attack on Pago Pago , at 98,110 Allied aircraft A-20B Boston x 69 Allied aircraft losses A-20B Boston: 1 destroyed, 4 damaged Japanese ground losses: 13 casualties reported Port hits 3 Port fuel hits 4 Port supply hits 4 Aircraft Attacking: 9 x A-20B Boston bombing at 6000 feet -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Day Air attack on Pago Pago , at 98,110 Allied aircraft OS2U-3 Kingfisher x 3 Allied aircraft losses OS2U-3 Kingfisher: 1 destroyed -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Naval bombardment of Pago Pago, at 98,110 - Coastal Guns Fire Back! 16 Coastal gun shots fired in defense. Allied Ships CA Frobisher, Shell hits 3 CA Hawkins, Shell hits 2 BB Mississippi, Shell hits 1 BB New Mexico BB Idaho BB Tennessee BB Pennsylvania Japanese ground losses: 675 casualties reported Guns lost 16 Runway hits 11 Port hits 2 Port supply hits 1 naval bombardment during the day, the base forces are hit but there´s nothing at the airfield and this usually helps to not suffer a nuke... -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Sub attack at 27,54 Japanese Ships AK Momoha Maru, Torpedo hits 1, on fire, heavy damage Allied Ships SS Wahoo Wahoo fires another salvo of 6 torps at the already finished AK... -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Coastal Guns at Pago Pago, 98,110, firing at TF 1025 TF 1025 troops unloading over beach at Pago Pago, 98,110 213 Coastal gun shots fired in defense. Allied Ships CL Richmond CL Detroit, Shell hits 2 MLE Mapele, Shell hits 2 CL Raleigh Allied ground losses: 2831 casualties reported Guns lost 2 LOL, seems like Miller still doesn´t really figure out how to land on atolls! This is the end of the day phase and I seriously doubt that he has unloaded everything in just this phase! And what the hell is he doing with this MLE in the invasion TF???????? -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Ground combat at Wyndham Japanese Bombardment attack Attacking force 289170 troops, 3404 guns, 84 vehicles, Assault Value = 6420 Defending force 152293 troops, 1151 guns, 411 vehicles, Assault Value = 2883 Allied ground losses: 375 casualties reported -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Ground combat at Pago Pago Japanese Bombardment attack Attacking force 10291 troops, 57 guns, 0 vehicles, Assault Value = 395 Defending force 15764 troops, 106 guns, 6 vehicles, Assault Value = 549 Allied ground losses: 72 casualties reported Guns lost 5 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Ground combat at Chungking Japanese Bombardment attack Attacking force 15560 troops, 176 guns, 0 vehicles, Assault Value = 1861 Defending force 273068 troops, 1463 guns, 0 vehicles, Assault Value = 6459 Allied ground losses: 13 casualties reported -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Ground combat at Kweiyang Japanese Bombardment attack Attacking force 22687 troops, 268 guns, 7 vehicles, Assault Value = 3151 Defending force 186734 troops, 64 guns, 0 vehicles, Assault Value = 5274 Allied ground losses: 26 casualties reported -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Ground combat at Pago Pago Allied Shock attack Attacking force 13816 troops, 98 guns, 4 vehicles, Assault Value = 544 Defending force 15861 troops, 72 guns, 0 vehicles, Assault Value = 395 Allied max assault: 350 - adjusted assault: 34 Japanese max defense: 348 - adjusted defense: 506 Allied assault odds: 0 to 1 (fort level 9) Japanese ground losses: 318 casualties reported Guns lost 9 Allied ground losses: 2663 casualties reported Guns lost 40 now isn´t that a nice way to wreck your troops? Miller landed one division, a RCT and support troops, including CD units. I still don´t get it why he lands at the end of the day phase instead of the start of the night phase tomorrow. Pretty sure the Allied div will be wrecked tomorrow. I don´t know if there are more TFs that are scheduled to unload tomorrow, but if not, then he should now evacuate his troops again. With my nuclear bombardment of Wyndham and the Allied losses on Pago Pago, the Allied suffered 166 points for ground losses today, now at 18.490... our aircraft losses were severe though and we now have several daitais trapped on Wallis Island and I can´t fly them out again...
