I wasn�t quite sure how the situation will be over Manila after yesterday�s bombings, thought the chances would be 50:50 to see enemy aircraft and while there weren�t as many as yesterday there was still formidable resistance... hard to tell how many leaked in from Clark and how many were still coming from Manila... ordered a lot of squadrons to sweep again of course, doing it in the same way as usual but at least the Corsairs are the ones to show up first as these are my second best fighters right after the Thuds...

it doesn�t help that much to send your second best fighter if the squadron ends up being dived though... the only thing that keeps us from suffering even more horrendous losses is the fact that we attack from one hex range so the damaged fighters got a fair chance to make it home, the squadrons are terrible shot up but most of the damaged ac make it back and aren�t damaged beyond repair... do the same at 5+ hexes and suffer three times the losses within the damaged fighters...

it�s then the Hellcats� turn to show up but they are shot out of the sky by diving Cap... the carriers are also very close by to minimize losses...

then the not so beloved P-51B show up getting the never ending dive and the result is obvious... have set them to 42000ft (max alt) without much feeling guilty as you can well see at which alt the Cap fighters are set... we�ve just completely ended up in the spiral into the stratosphere while it has been a bit better for some time... I should have but I didn�t set all my sweeping fighters to max alt as you can see in the first incoming sweeps...

I really love how the game works and how it handles strikes, perfection from A-Z, really... what makes me laugh the most is that the very rare times more than one squadron come in at once to sweep that "combined" sweep is coming in 95% of the time when all the single or < squadron sweeps are already done and there are no or only very few enemy aircraft left... it�s a good laugh

why these

smileys? Because this is not a combined sweep but nothing else than the usual failed attempt of carrier based ac to escort a LBA strike... what a numerical superiority does in this numbers� game is obvious too, with enough fighters you don�t even have to set them to attack in the stratosphere because the enemy runs out of the dive at some point if you heavily outnumber him as this is what happened here... don�t have to comment the losses I guess...

said it before, am going to say it a hundreds of times again, artillery bombardments in the game are completely crazy and just because the fact that nuclear artillery (ok effect IMO but ridicoulos low amount of supplies used) was worse doesn�t make it any better... why it is not seen how stupid COUNTER bombardment is calculated I don�t know, it just seems it�s the same old story that the responsible(s) can�t not overcome their own ego... it mega stinks and that�s not the usual exegaration, it�s the obvious truth... how silly!

WWII general: "fire all tubes"... artillery units: "Sir, aren�t you aware that the enemy will whipe us out with his nuclear artillery when he starts counterbombarding?"... "of course we can do the same to him, but only if he orders a bombardment and we counterstrike"...

Really would love to accept the game as it is but there are so obvious flaws there everyone on the board would scream BS if it would happen in another game and how awful and unrealistic it would be... not allowed, heck, they weren�t paid... and don�t forget your free download... wait, it wasn�t for free...

trashing the enemy airforce at Manila today should have made this a nice turn but the stupid artillery result (one unit was completely whiped out with several others stopped existing as a combat unit) the game has just made my day...

heck, I have ordered a hell a lot of heavy artillery to do a planned bombardment and in return my units get whiped out for no damage within the enemy... YES!

Allied Ships
AM Freemantle
AM Echuca
AM Cootamundra, Mine hits 1, on fire, heavy damage

20 mines cleared

the sub that attacked my convoy at Darwin did exactly what I expected, it was on a mine laying mission... so I�ve created a mine sweeping TF and the sub finally scores a kill as a minelayer hits one of the Type 88 mines... guess I can live with it...

Matsukaze is making an appearance again and sinks some more LCT... the small threats are the annoying ones at this stage as it always takes some time until I decide to act against them... this due to the turns having become more work than fun as I�m shifting around so many pilots, squadrons and TFs every turn it really is tiring sometimes...

now that one was a seriously trashed sweep, as said earlier, you seem to get the dive being on 6000ft when the sweep is coming in at the sweeping fighters� ceiling, something that doesn�t work at 10k, at 15k or any alt higher... 6k must be a magic number... interesting indeed, not that it makes sense to me, but interesting... once again, just screw the stupid dive as it�s the main problem just as the bounce has been in WITP... bounce = dive...

guess that�s it already, destroying the remaining enemy ac at Clark and Manila, doubt the enemy will come back... if he does, we�re going to break the backbone of the enemy airforce... I�m not reluctant to attack massed enemy fighters with my single squadron sweeps as we�re attacking from only one hex distance which means that most of the damaged fighters would make it back...

as Luzon�s remaining airfields are knocked out we are now focussing on Formosa which will be the next step forward... perhaps the rest of the IJN is then going to show up or Rainer will wait until I�m attempting to land on one of Japan�s main islands, I don�t know... I�m not sure if he realizes that as soon as I get into fighter range of Japan I�m going to bomb him to rubble so I would throw in the kitchen sink to keep me from taking a base near Japan but I would have fought for my life a year earlier already when I was cutting of the SRA...

we pay for it losing a freighter today...

here�s the situation at the frontline. As you can see, our units are rushing through empty Malay and we�re in the process of taking the bases on Northern Luzon against light opposition as the mass of the enemy units is located at Manila and Clark Field... this is going to be a long fight but there�s no doubt that we are going to win in the end as I can bring as many reinforcements as I wish as I don�t have to land them on a hostile beach... haven�t done much about Sumatra so far but am making progress there too, the island is at best lightly defended and most bases are empty anyway... going for Medan and Palembang to have fuel sources close to the front, this will take pressure of my tanker fleet... as soon as Northern Luzon is completely secured we�re going to build a level 9 airfield at Aparri to dominate the Sea to the East and to destroy enemy airfields on Formosa, then the fleet will set sail to drop nearly a dozen divisional sized units on Formosa together with a couple of dozen support and tank units... going with recon, I�m expecting a couple of enemy divisions on the island, perhaps 3-4000 av in total... main advantage for us is the fact that halve of the bases are in clear terrain which can�t be defended by the enemy, we�re going to land the first wave North of Takao and expect the base to fall on the first attack...

pretty surprising to engage nearly a hundred fighters here, recon constantly showed 40 fighters, 40 aux (seems like Oscars are always IDed as aux as I have experienced that many times before)... our sweeps show up, well, in the usual silly way, range to target 4 hexes... the enemy Cap is set to their ceiling, well, we do the same with the Spits and get the dive... being outnumbered we run out of it at some point and lose a couple of spits but overall an ok result for us... when looking at what is getting airborne, I�m sure the enemy once again launches close to 100% of his fighters... that�s why it constantly surprises that PzB only gets 50% of his fighters airborne, Rainer is doing just as well as me as the Allied, we both got our AWACS airborne in big numbers...

the first wave did ok, the following three completely massacred the enemy as the Spits had the never ending dive, which surprised me as the second wave still was outnumbered... 5:1 kill ratio in the end, nearly halve a dozen damaged Spits were lost or write offs...

hmm, when thinking about how hard it is to take Tarakan, I wonder if this force is going to be enough to take that place... we�ve got 600 medium and heavy land based bombers plus the 1000+ carrier based bombers nearby though so that should do the trick...

as you can see on the loss list, only one fighter was torched on the ground at Hankow, talk about a near 100% scramble rate of the enemy Cap... it�s definitely doable as the Japanese, no doubt about the Allied being able to do it anyway I guess...

replay just as boring as the report and Rainer seems not to be going to make an effort to make it a bit more interesting at this stage...

so we�re just working over Clark and Manila to wear down the enemy�s supply depots, but to do that we have to score supply hits which we fail to do at a rate I would have expected us to be able to...

due to my strategic night attacks Rainer seems to start tactical ones again... I�m not a fan of tactical attacks at night at all but if he keeps them up I�m going to fly some massed 4E tac night attacks too which should stop him doing it I guess...

the enemy also employs night fighters now, at least my night attacks have forced the night fighters to night fighter duty and I wouldn�t meet them during the day, even though they aren�t effective bomber attackers anyway, just like my night attacks aren�t effective against the strategic targets... still better than attacking during the day and suffering one and a halve dozen B-29 lost everytime as that�s something we can not afford...

rushing through the reports as there is just nothing to comment on these boring turns... this one is a bit more interesting as I finally got rid of those annoying Kates that bombed my Chinese units day after day... don�t know why Rainer isn�t expecting me to take down his bombers at some point, sometimes it just takes a bit longer to become so annoyed that I finally move a squadron or two into range to take out the annoying buggers... all of them were shot down today... don�t know if the results over the last weeks were worth the loss of this unit...

this is where we are focussing our assets now as Palembang�s invasion is just about to go in... first we have to wear down the defenders there which shouldn�t be much of a problem as the whole carrier fleet is parking nearby and we�ve also got hundreds of land based fighters plus medium bombers in the area... as most of the time, I don�t expect Rainer to really act against this invasion even though he could launch strikes from Northern Java... I�m amazed that he even got fighters all the time at Palembang as this hasn�t made much sense since the South China Sea has been a nogo area for Japanese shipping so bombing Palembang would be senseless, therfore also defending it with fighters IMO...

the Corsairs had no problem to deal with the Cap as Nicks just aren�t up to the task to deal with advanced Allied 1E fighters...

usually I go with nav attack/airfield attack but as I don�t see any chance of being near enemy shipping that could be any threat so I decided to take out the field with the morning strike already... all the dive bombers are still on nav attack though as I usuall don�t use them against defended land targets (mainly because ballons are such a threat to them

)... this airfield is not going to launch any more strikes I guess...

and as consistent as silly (yes, noone else should have ever noticed it but stupid castor) the COMBINED strike shows up when everything else is back at the base already... this whole routine is bullocks, totally bullocks and got nothing to do with any sense of reality... it�s not even a discussion about tactical or strategical scope anymore, it�s just rubbish all the way through and this turn is a nice example for it... sorry, that�s how it is, just open your eyes, guess everyone is able to read...

now in the afternoon, guess what this is... yes, you may guess right if you have read this AAR or perhaps noticed it in your own game, that�s a failed escort attempt, showing up as a big COMBINED sweep... silly A-Z...

air losses been pretty one sided today, no matter with the number of ac deployed for both sides and independent of the completely screwed up strikes... oh, no, they aren�t screwed up, that�s WAD mind you... have a nice weekend

As posted in the main forum, castor has decided to take a break from the game and the forums in general and we have quit our game in January '45. I've decided to finish this AAR by posting the remaining combat reports and give you also a peak at the japanese version of events. Hopefully I will also be able to show you what works (and doesn't work) late-war against the allied juggernaut.

If you have any questions about previous happenings in the game or anything else really, please feel free to ask.

As I had not planned on doing an AAR, I will continue with castor's format as it makes things easier for me even though I am not normally a fan of CR AARs.

A good day's work. I especially like the damage to the APAs. Sadly at this point of time the MTB bug still meant that nearly all of the japanese MTBs remained in the building queue or I would have used a lot more of them in the SRA.

Estimated time to target is 37 minutes

While it may appear that the night-fighters main mission is to get shot down by the 4Es, bombing accuracy does suffer if the attackers get intercepted. A worthwhile trade in my book, even the refineries are the wrong targets IMO. The home islands have a massive capacity surplus now that the imports from the SRA are cut off and I certainly won't waste any supplies repairing them.

Some Oscars get massacred. The tactic of keeping the CAP at 6k feet against high altitude sweeps doesn't work as well as under previous patches anymore.

Not the most stout garrison. Then again Sumatra and Java are nearly empty now as I've evacuated everything of value to the new MLR (Southern China - Formosa - Luzon - Marianas). Now the transport aircraft have been shifted to evacuate the non-combat units from Indo-China and Luzon.

The Emily transport versions are worth their weight in gold as they have incredible payload and range.

Ranier,

Would you put aside the usual combat reports and write a paragraph or three on your overall status and outlook for your side as 1945 begins? How is your economy, your stockpiles, what do your pools look like, what ships are you building, Do you feel like you are where you should be by now. What are your major mistakes over the campaign and what do you feel CT did right and wrong? What did you do right and wrong? Is the game balanced fairly? What are your major beefs about balance as the Japanese player? (No, we don't want to hear about Allied 4E bombers again

) CT did a good job filling us in about the Allied side. Now it would be nice to hear your take on it.

Thanks.

Sure, I can do that and give my � 0,02 on various topics.

1) Shipbuilding:
Merchant shipbuilding has been mostly halted since mid '44 (i.e. since access to the DEI was lost). You'll have more xAKs than you will ever be able to use anyway but before the blockade I did build any tanker hull I could get my hands on. The sub warfare did really hurt in this area but I don't think the IJN will ever run out of ships to carry oil. If the normal production is not enough, you can turn back on the xAK lines as all the standard class freighters can be converted to TKs. They are not very efficient but quantity has a quality of its own. I did plan to build the entire LST class and the 4 late-war CVEs though. Those are more transports than carriers but I can see some uses for them.

The naval portion is a bit more active. I wanted to get every available late-war flight deck into service to make up my losses and all the surface combatants I could get my hands on. Quite a few subs were halted (mainly the useless late-war coastal types and most of transports).

2) Industry
All in all this is one area I felt comfortable. At the start of '45 I had 1 000 000 HI in the pool and the tendency was rising even with that atrocious pilot training HI tax (100 000+). Resources were never an issue. I had some 66 million in the home islands and would have run out sometime in the 50's.

The oil and fuel were more interesting due to the allied blockade. Still, I had amassed good stockpiles and would have lasted to mid '45 if I had continued everything at full production. My plan was actually to selectively shut down some industries (armaments, shipbuilding) to make it last longer.

Armaments were also looking good at 100k+. I kept some of them running to handle the rebuilding of the divisions trashed at Luzon and for the many shell divisions that were starting to arrive but I did not foresee any great problems here.

Vehicles were a major problem that was only to get worse. The pool was empty since late '43 after I got hit by a major bug in this area that cost me my stockpile (basically lots of useless Type 97 tanks kept getting produced although it was obsolete and no unit wanted them anymore). Due to my massive air evacuation campaigns - which left lots of vehicles behind - the stockpile never recovered and was continuously empty.

Air production was rather conservative IMO. I could have produced more I guess but then again I did not really need more.

3) Balance
Now that is a tricky one. I must say I am still not sure about that.

Even the tempo was slowed down compared to the original Witp you can still move much faster than in reality (which applies to both sides equally). I wouldn't mind seeing more tweaks made to reduce the tempo even further.

Requiring 100 prep to invade a target without lots of disablement is a step in the right direction but even that can be circumvented. On the larger islands you cannot defend every port so castor landed a smaller detachment with massive 4E ground support, took the base and could unload the rest of the units without any prep issues.

Here is also a totally subjective (and probably non-complete) list of issues. I won't mention air coordination as I feel that this topic has been discussed to death anyway.

-) 4Es

I don't mind their survivability or bomb-load (much

) but I would really like to see their defensive fire tweaked a bit.

What I also would not mind to see is that land attacks would miss their target occasionally (something akin to the similar naval messages).

-) Amphibious TFs
While I absolutely love the new port restrictions for cargo and transport TFs to make things more interesting, I don't like the fact that you can do fairly ... interesting stuff with the amphibs. For example during the reconquest of the DEI, castor did invade some dot bases with a port rating of 0 (0) and used the seabees to quickly build them up to major 4E complexes. All the while amphib convoys unloaded several houndred thousand tons of supplies to keep the Liberators flying. Sure, the port eventually also get expanded but only a few months later...

-) Low level naval attacks
Whoever ever complained about Betties should look at what 4Es at 1k ft will do. Massive range, immunity to fighters and flak and a hit rate that is simply amazing. Reliably sinking anything within 20 hexes of a major base (twice per day) is not my idea of fun (or history).

-) Flak
While we are at it, I wouldn't also mind seeing flak damage increased across the board for both sides.

-) China

In this version I don't think China was anything close to balanced although the later patches might have made it better. But with the unlimited supplies in the theatre Castor could invade Indo-China with 10k+ AV and still outnumber me at least 2:1 along the MLR. And base hundreds of 4Es in the country. I don't think castor realized until close to the end how weak the CEA was compared to his forces - and I did not dare to remove a single unit from the country.

-) Nuclear Counter-Bombardment
I guess I won't need to explain this one. It is most fun when it is triggered by the enemy unloading only supplies and still your own troops are destroying themselves.

More to come later...

4) What we did right and what we did wrong...

Getting kicked out of Burma in late '42 definitely was a very unhappy surprise, especially as I had 8 IDs there. That the allies were able to send so many supplies through the jungle was not something I expected though again that may have gotten better with the recent patches.

I think I did the right thing in cutting my losses and withdrawing to the Thai border after too many units were trashed at Shwebo and I did hold the Indians there for ~18 months. The Moulmain (actually the hex NE of the base) - Chiang Mai line is a very powerful defensive position.

The downside was that millions of supplies got into China, though Chris did not even use the supply draw feature to manually suck them in.

Which of course led to the invasion of Indo-China. I stopped that one barely though of course it sucked in my entire strategic reserve of troops. So no counter-invasions in the DEI for me...

What Chris also did right, was to focus on a single axis of advance and being very methodical. If you don't leave many openings ala Andy Mac then there is not much I can do to derail the allied juggernaut. Also his convoys to Australia and beyond took very long routes which really cut down on the possibilities for raiding. Trading a few more weeks of travel time for security did pay off for him. At least my little excursion to the West Coast in '44 and the attacks against his SLOC in the DEI did force him to divert a few more resources to rear-area security.

Of course at the same time I could evacuate troops from safe areas (Marshalls, Kuriles, Java, ...) without interference and I still controlled all these areas at the end.

One thing that is very hard to deal with is the 1000+ fighter CAP over late war allied CVs. While it is not as fool-proof as the beloved Uber-CAP from Witp it does give a lot of protection. Yes, you will get some leakers and a few hits but only very rarely against the same vessel. And trading single hits on a couple of CVEs (which won't even seriously inconvenience them) for a few hundred planes shot down is not something I am happy with.

Of course the same applies (to a lesser extent) to KB. Not splitting the carriers early-war radically improves their survivability.

However, as this AAR will show not even in '45 a carrier engagement is totally hopeless.
