AFTER ACTION REPORTS FOR Feb 04, 42 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- In Larry's PBEM e-mail he pointed out my subs were finally getting some hits. Its the same ship hit twice, but not too many casualties for an AP Sub attack near Truk at 115,105 Japanese Ships xAP Huso Maru, Torpedo hits 1, heavy damage PB Shonon Maru #15 Allied Ships SS Triton Japanese ground losses: 8 casualties reported Squads: 0 destroyed, 0 disabled Non Combat: 0 destroyed, 0 disabled Engineers: 0 destroyed, 1 disabled Guns lost 1 (1 destroyed, 0 disabled) Submarine attack near Truk at 115,105 Japanese Ships xAP Huso Maru, Torpedo hits 1, on fire, heavy damage Allied Ships SS Triton Japanese ground losses: 22 casualties reported Squads: 1 destroyed, 0 disabled Non Combat: 0 destroyed, 0 disabled Engineers: 0 destroyed, 0 disabled This AO had a DD escort, Where is it? The World Wonders... Submarine attack near Palmyra at 170,133 Japanese Ships SS I-172 Allied Ships AO Ramapo, Torpedo hits 2, heavy fires, heavy damage AO Ramapo is sighted by SS I-172 SS I-172 launches 4 torpedoes at AO Ramapo No escort, same result... Submarine attack near Geraldton at 48,141 Japanese Ships SS I-158 Allied Ships xAK Pellicula, Torpedo hits 3, on fire, heavy damage I'm doing ok in my other game vs. TommyG, its the stock version of the game so there are some differences in playing. Understandably he has done a Sir Robin defense and I had to scout out where he went to hide. He abandoned Balikpapan and Tarakan -so no damage there when I captured them. I found him at Broome and Derby - bombed them both with 2 of my 3 CVTF's and retired to refit. I am unloading fuel as fast as I can from Balikpapan due to spoilage, but his contribution is to place around 10 subs in the straights there, I have 5 ASWTF's working there along with escorts. I sent a SCTF of 2CA,3CL and 4DD's to Suva to scout TF's reported to be there. . . The battle there cost me a CA & CL, BUT scout planes told he has 2 CV's refitting there (he admitted it to me) but I have no CV's in the area, and thought about a kamikaze run at Suva's port, but I left it and returned the ships to Rabaul for repair. That's pretty much it for that game.
