AFTER ACTION REPORTS FOR Feb 01,02,03 42 three days very important for Japan. With order: MALAYA: our 4 divisions crossed the line and entered into Singapore. The shock attack went pretty well, forts down and 1-1...the 5th division is trashed but the other ones aren't in a bad shape. The 33rd joined the party on the 2nd and now 2 more divisions are arriving from Jahore Baru. Probably within two weeks we can take the base. JAVA: i ordered the invasion of Java. all my transports are grouping, along with several SCTFs and the Kaga's TF...fuel is really a problem for my CVTFs now...my oilers are empty and everywhere the endurance is red :-( NEar Christmas OI several cruisers have been spotted on the 2nd....he probably wants to face my invasion TFs with Force Z and friends...i am sending the KB from Timor to Christmas OI...let's see if i can end the resistance of his Navy in the DEI once for all. Palembang is always short of supplies...it's really a pain! TIMOR: we invaded Dili and Lautem and conquered them with 2 SNLF units. I'll probably wait a bit for Koepang cause i need fuel and supplies... Mereuake and Horn Island fell. while Mereuake was empty, Horn was loaded with several units...i had sent 300 AVs there...and some BBs...we managed to take the atoll at the first attempt ;-) BURMA: we had several fights over Rangoon's skies, where his hurricanes did really well, killing lots of zeros and Nells. But then my armies crossed the river and conquered Pegu and the hex north of it, helped by our mighty air force. Now i need to roll over Burma. I'll try to push as deep as i can...possibly up untill Mandalay. Let's see if he wanna fights for Rangoon or not... CHINA: well, he has occupied the crossroads north of Ankang and he's trying to close over Angang with several units coming both from the south and from north...but i'm reinforcing the base with a SNLF unit and with another raiding regiment, while my tanks are marching from south...i think i will win this race. Overall it seems that he's fleeing from the Nanyang sector...we pushed him out from the Chengchow area and now his units are struggling on the woods...while on the northern road that leads to Sian, we opened the way defeating 3 chinese corps on the 2nd of Feb and we're now on the run. I wanna push him on both the roads that leads to Sian, while another column will march towards Ankang, flanking the whole Sian sector. In the south, we're ready to liberate the road Liuchow-Tsuyun. Then i'll regroup and will try to push north. It also seems that, slowly, he's abbandoning Changsha area...it's an active retreat...he fights back...but every turn i spot less units in this area...good! 3 damaged CAs are coming back online, while base forces, supplies and fuel are flowing towards CENTPAC and SWPAC. We're buying base forces and AA units to be sent to the Solomons-NG area, while Wake and Marcus are now secured. No further signs of enemy's CVs presence in NOPAC...probably they're moving towards Oz... -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Morning Air attack on TF, near Rangoon at 54,53 Weather in hex: Partial cloud Raid spotted at 13 NM, estimated altitude 8,000 feet.
