So I'm taking over as Japan and we are in April of 1945. Rodger pretty much has things wrapped up and I'm coming in as the relief pitcher for Japan, primarily so I can learn what options I have when the Allies come-a-knocking.

Following will be a few screenies of the map:

So I've sent the next turn off to Roger. I'll try a small carrier strike to the east while routing a SCTF up towards Tsushima.

I've shut off everything - armament, factories, everything and brought up a few refineries in the home islands to see if any oil will flow to refineries that are on. All but a few bases seem to be out of fuel, out of supplies, or out of both.

At this stage, I think the best I can do is toss in a few roadblocks. What I'd really love to do would be to build at least a few fighters as Rodger's bombers are gunna pound Japan to paste...

We'll see what happens, but in the end, this is very much a learning experience and it lets Rodger get that rare allied enjoyment of getting even for that first part of the war.

So what would ab AAR be without an AAR? So this report was the first, turn as sent to Rodger from his previous opponent. Future reports will be based on my own orders as I get a feel for the endgame.

Here is proof the Russians are coming. They are also pushing across the border in Manchouko by ground with air support to soften up my Japanese troops. Since all of the base have zero (or close to that) in supplies and most of my troops are deep into the red for supplies, the Russian air-2-ground attacks are basically churning my troops into butter.

So I've sent the next turn off to Roger. I'll try a small carrier strike to the east while routing a SCTF up towards Tsushima.



I'd think about kamikazing the **** out of those TFs in the Sea of Japan and NW/NE of Hokkaido. Follow up with / combine with a carrier strike.

ORIGINAL: Chickenboy

April 1945 and the Rooskies are involved?!? How'd that happen? Ugh.


lol - yup, my time in Manchuoko looks like it will be somewhat short.

Most of the enemy taskforces you see NW/NE of Hokkaido are small ship TFs according to mouse-click intel.

I did get in a kamikaze attack on the next turn. One of the challenges is that almost every base is at 0 supplies and most of the air units are at zero or low numbers ready with the majority of the airframes being under maintenance.

I've got a few transport aircraft and a few subs so I'm hoping to move a few supplies about on the map and we'll see what happens.

I'll post the next Combat Report and another pic or three in just a few.

With no HI, or oil, I doubt you can produce anything. Turn off all replacements, and fort construction. You might scrape some supply from LI for plane operations.

Soviets are using lots of old airframes. Targeting Soviet Air seems to have greatest chance of doing anything useful.

Babo, and Boela at New Guinea tip, are probably only Bases with oil left. You might risk smuggling it.

I'm gunna try moving some of my HQ units around to see if that pulls supplies to a base that I've identified as my "Alamo" for Manchuoko.

As for oil - I'm wondering if I can scrape enough units and resources to protect Shikuka and go after Alexandrovsk...

Maybe send your HQ units to Fusan, use the 'demand' buttons there to jack it up further and try to get some across to the Home islands?

Good on you for taking this game on. That industry situation is rough!
The only thing you’ve got plenty of is Resources but it looks like more than half the Light Industry has been trashed, and you’ve got no fuel to run Heavy Industry, so you really need to ration supply use.

Ideas to save supply:
- Stand down all but essential air groups, maybe even disband all but fighters
- disband non essential land combat units by sending them to Tokyo. Eg: if you don’t have enough supply for aircraft to fly anyway, you may as well send most of the mechanics back to their farms
- stop all construction

Also, drain fuel from any merchants you still have by putting them in temporary task forces and asking warships to replenish at sea from them.

Good luck!

Thanks for the suggestions. I hadn't thought about disbanding air groups. I'll chew on that for a bit. :-)

Chickenboy had also suggested the refueling process you describe above. I've put that to good use. I just wish I had a few more merchies on the table from which I might pillage their fuel reserves.

1. At Mutankiang all of my units are moving to Fushun (1 hex to the east). My hope is they pull the supplies with them.

2. For the rest of Manchukuo, I'm Alamo at Kirin, which is a wooded hex with three sides protected by the river. Kirin's forts are at level 5 and it has 20 resources and 20 LI. We'll see what happens.

3. At Toyohara I have the 88th Division and the 41st Mixed Rgt. That are packing to use the rail system to Shikuka. Currently at Shikuka are the:
i. 34th Div. (111)
ii. 101st Garrison Unit (20)
iii. 58th Ind. Mixed Bde (55)
iv. 1st Ind Infantry Bde (0)
v. 1 arty unit and a pair of construction units. Note that all of my units at Shikuka are in the red with zero supplies.

4. TF51(5DD) that raided the small enemy TF at Shikuka was successful in driving the enemy out of the hex. This TF is returning back to the home islands post haste.

5. A flight of Betties attacked an enemy TF near Seishin w/o Escorts. Bummer. I've reduced their max range to 10 which should keep this air group attacking TFs that are not sitting in one of Roger's bases.

6. SCTF240(1CA 1CL 4DD) @ 108,62 is still running up to Fusan for a raid. They ran into a flight of TBM-3 but seem to have weathered the conflict fairly well. The Chikuma has 1 point of Sys damage. :-)

7. ACTF333(3CVL 1CA 1CL 3DD) was able to attack an allied amphibious landing. Unfortunately Most if not all of his troops have boots on the ground. I just don't have any type of naval search umbrella up so my WAG is that I'll always be Johnny-come-lately. I see a small TF SE of my carriers. I'm using way points to jog 1 hex NE before shooting down SE in an attempt to engage the enemy TF. After that 333 needs to return home for fuel and ammo.

Put your almost fuel empty cargo vessels in a coastal hex with mines and air cover. He can't sweep it. Convoys with 2 ships could work.

That Industry situation is truly grim! It looks like you have no fuel at all, and no hope of getting more. Your HI pool is empty.

All of that means you can't build ANY aircraft, even ones you have engines for. Whatever you have right now on hand, that's it for the rest of the game. What do you have in your A/C pools, especially fighters?

If you have a little oil in Honshu being turned into gas, you can scrape a few HI together. If that's the case, you need to immediately turn off all shipyard production if it's not already. I would also turn off Armament production; you have 200K, that will have to do. I would turn off all A/C production except for a couple fighter models, and if you have a pool of engines, I would pick an IJN/IJA model that uses that pool. That will give you maximum fighter planes for minimum HI.
