AFTER ACTION REPORTS FOR 11/11/43 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Day Air attack on Malir , at 22,4 Allied aircraft Sunderland x 4 Spitfire Vb x 4 Liberator VI x 30 Hurricane IIc x 11 Allied aircraft losses Liberator VI: 5 damaged Japanese ground losses: 13 casualties reported Guns lost 1 Airbase hits 4 Airbase supply hits 1 Runway hits 5 Aircraft Attacking: 3 x Liberator VI bombing at 15000 feet -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Day Air attack on Manila , at 43,52 Japanese aircraft A6M5 Zeke x 35 A6M3a Zero x 54 Ki-43-IIa Oscar x 35 Ki-61 Ic x 70 No Japanese losses Airbase hits 2 Runway hits 87 Aircraft Attacking: 32 x Ki-61 Ic bombing at 2000 feet -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Day Air attack on Paramushiro Jima , at 82,34 Allied aircraft PBM Mariner x 3 PV-1 Ventura x 35 PB4Y Liberator x 12 Allied aircraft losses PBM Mariner: 2 damaged PV-1 Ventura: 4 damaged PB4Y Liberator: 1 damaged Japanese ground losses: 40 casualties reported Airbase hits 11 Airbase supply hits 2 Runway hits 33 Aircraft Attacking: 4 x PB4Y Liberator bombing at 15000 feet wonder if the enemy plans to keep up a prolonged air offensive in the North. It´s winter already so perhaps this could lead to some more losses within his bombers but I guess not... In any case, winter means an amphibious assault would be suicide and my bases are well garissoned anyway. Garisson numbers will be brought up until spring... -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Day Air attack on Luganville , at 72,107 Allied aircraft B-25J Mitchell x 41 No Allied losses Airbase supply hits 1 Runway hits 4 Aircraft Attacking: 33 x B-25J Mitchell bombing at 6000 feet -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Day Air attack on Ulan-Ude , at 61,10 Allied aircraft Pe-2 x 19 Allied aircraft losses Pe-2: 4 damaged Airbase hits 4 Airbase supply hits 1 Runway hits 9 Aircraft Attacking: 11 x Pe-2 bombing at 10000 feet still nearly two dozen annoying Russian bombers around at Blaoveshchensk. Would like to take them out and withdraw my fighters from important bases within 5 hexes but I don´t want to lose dozens of Helens in this attempt due to the all killing enemy flak there... -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Day Air attack on 1st Ind. Brigade, at 43,32 Allied aircraft Hurricane IIb x 5 Hurricane IIc x 10 No Allied losses Japanese ground losses: 39 casualties reported Aircraft Attacking: 5 x Hurricane IIb bombing at 2000 feet

Guns lost 4 Aircraft Attacking: 16 x IL-2 Shturmovik bombing at 2000 feet this one did hurt... 10.000ft and below is where the Japanese flak can achieve something if there are enough gun barrels around, everything going in higher is pretty much safe... -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Day Air attack on 16th Division, at 46,103 Allied aircraft Wellington III x 13 PV-1 Ventura x 10 B-25C Mitchell x 17 B-25J Mitchell x 136 Allied aircraft losses Wellington III: 4 damaged PV-1 Ventura: 1 damaged B-25C Mitchell: 2 damaged B-25J Mitchell: 13

Mitchell: 1 destroyed, 5 damaged Japanese ground losses: 259 casualties reported Guns lost 4 Aircraft Attacking: 8 x Ventura V bombing at 20000 feet but some bombers were shot down today, not a bad exchange considering the fact that I don´t want to attack anyway at the moment... just keeping the Allied busy... -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Day Air attack on 47th Division, at 43,32 Allied aircraft Hurricane IIb x 27 P-40N Warhawk x 8 No Allied losses Japanese ground losses: 31 casualties reported Guns lost 3 Aircraft Attacking: 8 x P-40N

Japanese ground losses: 369 casualties reported Guns lost 7 Allied ground losses: 8901 casualties reported Guns lost 20 more troops surrender... all of the remaining enemy invaders will be knocked out soon... the Makin invasion (and evacuation) has cost the Allied not just hundreds of carrier based aircraft, nearly a dozen carriers, a couple of BBs and dozens of AKs, it has also cost them a couple of LCUs worth 400-500 victory points... -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Ground combat at Blagoveshchensk Japanese Bombardment attack Attacking force

odds: 0 to 1 Japanese ground losses: 1886 casualties reported Guns lost 50 Allied ground losses: 3443 casualties reported Guns lost 19 holy crap! My adjusted av is far from what I would expect while the Chinese adjusted av is also far higher than I would expect. The Chinese are starving, have nearly no guns left and still get a better adjusted av than most of my 5000+ av armies get when assaulting an Allied position. Explanation for our low adjusted av in this urban hex surely are the ongoing air to ground attacks by the British/Chinese fighter bombers that highly disrupted our troops here... looks like I have to take out the airfield sooner than later... a Chinese Army that is suddenly able to break out would be a major change in our strategic position... -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Ground combat at Karachi Allied Bombardment attack Attacking force 105742 troops, 805 guns, 16 vehicles, Assault Value = 2944 Defending force 89729 troops, 902 guns, 20 vehicles, Assault Value = 1821 Japanese ground losses: 352 casualties reported Guns lost 12 Vehicles lost 2 Allied ground losses: 21 casualties reported Guns lost 2 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Ground combat at Townsville Allied Bombardment attack Attacking force 71141 troops, 696 guns, 13 vehicles, Assault Value = 1764 Defending force 226506 troops, 2395 guns, 21 vehicles, Assault Value = 4274 Japanese ground losses: 145 casualties reported Allied ground losses: 49 casualties reported Guns lost 5 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Ground combat at Cairns Allied Bombardment attack Attacking force 48488 troops, 498 guns, 4 vehicles, Assault Value = 1108 Defending force 194530 troops, 1741 guns, 16 vehicles, Assault Value = 3279 Japanese ground losses: 29 casualties reported Allied ground losses: 12 casualties reported Guns lost 1
