Home Islands west. Yesterday Imperial strength reconed as 34 units, 126,060 troops, 992 guns, and 1,252 AFV. Today Imperial strength recons as 32 units, 118,380 troops, 877 guns, and 1,108 AFV. Our AV today is 1,754. The P-38 groups and some attack bomber groups are standing down due to flak losses so we have them ready for the next assault.

Some MTB sorties and lots of night air atrikes on the fleet but no damage.

Kumamoto. Here is the state of our infantry. The 38th ID in on the line; the other four divisions are in reserve to aid recovery.

EDIT: Correct typo.

I don't see any 18th ID.

"38th" ID. The one that landed last because the staff screwed up loading orders.

The staff did not screw up the orders - they were late being issued because the staff got into the US Navy's "torpedo juice" and were rendered incapable of giving any orders . . .

Ah! I'll bet that International Date Line thingy didn't help any, either.

At any rate you can see the fatigue is in the 50s in three of the other four divisions, even after a day resting in reserve mode! It would be really great if it drops enough tomorrow to order an attack the day after, but I'm not confident it will drop so much.

Oops - turn incoming!

What general criteria are you looking for before you order another attack at either Shanghai or Manila?

BTW I like how your screenshots progressively shrink as the Japs are slowly pushed back and constricted, for example China Outback.

At Shanghai I wanted to get all the remaining assigned units in place (done as of the turn I am about to post), and I want to have a powerful naval bombardment to help the assault. The various assigned units badly damaged in the last assault are now all in Nanking to recover.

At Manila I am just waiting for enough AV to recover. I would prefer to have only units with a favorable ratio of healthy to disabled devices so that no more than inevitable are lost destroyed (instead of becoming disabled), but I will probably not wait that long. Part of the issue at Manila is that fortifications are still high and I need to husband the forces there so they will be able to finish the job. If they get too weak reducing fortifications they will need a long time to recover before capturing Manila.

We have 2,200 AV ready for the next assault, which includes units still heavily disabled and likely to lose more destroyed than we wish, but we will press on soon anyway. First we are moving the corps and army HQ units from Manila to Batangas to see if that speeds further recovery (I'm sure their presence has helped units in Manila recover).

Home Islands west. Yesterday Imperial strength reconed as 32 units, 118,380 troops, 877 guns, and 1,108 AFV. Today Imperial strength recons as 23 units, 112,020 troops, 807 guns, and 675 AFV. That's quite a change in unit and AFV counts. Certainly mauled armoured units are withdrawing to recover rather than lose disabled vehicles, but there is also movement seen out of Kanoya, Kagoshima, and Nagasaki/Sasebo that indicates withdrawal to a defensive line. We have 1,819 AV at Kumamoto, a nice recovery. At the risk of slowing recovery I am ordering up a supply of recon shells for the artillery to use tomorrow. The infantry will not be ready to attack (not as ready as I feel the situation warrants) anyway, and I want to see what is there now. The fact that DAW HQ has ordered such maneuvers must mean that defenses at Kumamoto are believed ready to crack.

The usual night air strikes against our fleet were repulsed.

We have 1,880 AV at Kumamoto now, and an assault is ordered for tomorrow with standard (massive) naval and air support. Weather forcast is Partially Cloudy ("P"). The one-sided carnage wrought by the Allied artillery bombardment surprised me and confirms the weakened state of the defense. Anticipating capture, base forces and construction units are loading at Hangchow and Taihoku.

Air losses. Forgot to re-designate targets at Kumammoto when a number of Imperial units moved out yesterday and many strikes ran into CAP. All squadrons set for tomorrow.

Kumamoto. Better but not ideal, still should be good enough given the weakened condition of the defense.

"Soviets will activate on August 1st. I have it in my brain that they are setup kinda funky as far was what makes sense for troop deployment. I am pretty sure you can�t march them anywhere was well. If you want a month or 2 weeks or something prior to August 1st to adjust their deployment, I will be more than happy to activate them for you with the agreement that they will not be used offensively until Aug 1st. I am willing to let them sit until August 1st but is seems like they would be deployed by that date where you would want them. Let me know what you think. Maybe the AARers have some thoughts. "

Your thoughts?

IRL the Russians did not attack until Aug. 12th IIRC, so activating on Aug. 1 gives them time to reach jumping-off points by Aug. 12.
