Holy c%$p !!! [X(]

However i was wrong about mandalay i'll not tempt fate here too [;)]

RE the B29s are they targetting a city ? or factories etc. i 'think' it has to be a city target but never having dropped one i'm guessing a bit. ( i mean manpower)

Good luck




aztez -> RE: US troops battle at Kagoshima.. Russia enters War (9/15/2007 9:36:56 PM)

Rob:  Indeed.. Holy c%p! This time around I'am skeptical too but I will do whatever I can to even the odds.

The capture of Mandalay was good news.. Now I need to make sure he cannot reorganize his defenses at Burma. (Allthough Dave might already be ready)

I'am targeting cities. Actually I had targeted the manpower at Tokyo... didn't fly... now I try againts Osaka.

I think that I really need some luck here! [:)]

Hmmm. No Atomic bombs this turn either...! [:(] ..Those B29's just refuse to fly out of Kadina. I changed the target to Sapporo for next turn. Hopefully, it will work. I read the manual and there should not be any reason why these planes don't fly. [8|]

I wonder how much supplies Japanese has piled up at Kagoshima and what kind of harm these LBA strikes will cause? ....I'am sending in another supply convoy bringing in some 150 000 supply points. I want to keep my troops well supplied here.

Rob Brennan UK -> RE: US troops battle at Kagoshima.. Russia enters War (9/16/2007 7:31:37 PM)

I'm dubious of the effectiveness of bombing Kagoshima airfield.

1) he's NOT going to run out of supply in the HI
2) Plenty more airfields very close
3) level 9 forts aren't going to get any better [;)]

However hitting the Port will 'hopefully' reduce the damage your transports take when unloading , while ground attack will disrupt his units if not do all that much damage due to the 'rolling' stack feature[8|] .

Good luck with the BOMB ! want screenshots of that (big mushroom cloud [;)])

To sum the above up --> I'am screwed! [:D][:D][:D] Unfortunately you might be right.

It is hard to estimate how much supplies he has piled up there. I mean he hasn't been able to bring in resources etc for longtime.

Those naval bombardments are becoming too costly. He has already torpedoed 3 BB's and that is not good.

You will get the screenshot If I'am ever to figure out how detonate the damn thing!!! [8|][:D]

Bad weather prevented additional airstrikes. Well, at least some supplies were burned.

Also some industrial capacity were destroyed on the Home Islands. (As usual)

I'am looking into possibilities to help US troops stuck at Kagoshima. There are some plans already in motion.

That is the 1st day of action at Russia.. kind of recaps the action from the next few days.

Arshaan seems very stubborn... Actually this is very suprising... I have reinforcements enroute. I think it will be overwhelmed soon enough.

At Mutanchiang an shock assault is ordered... fingers crossed that it will succeed.

Othérwise more troops are moving into their offensive places.

I think Arshaan will captured quite soon. As said more reinforcements are enroute there.

The battle of Mutanchiang seems tough as it is... well at least I knocked down an fortifications if nothing else. Intresting to see whether Dave will reinforce any of these bases.

Mishan seems tough too.. unfortunately.

Well I will continue to bomb his industry... B24's will also visit Kagoshima daily!

Kadina is overstacked (388 planes according to your screenie above; 350 max for level 7 AF). Atomic bomb squadron will probably only launch when all of the squadrons' planes fly. Just a theory...

Hi,

Thanks! I will try to change that situation once the next turn arrives. Didn't even notice that.

..also will try to change the leader too for that squadron. Might help too.




Rob Brennan UK -> RE: US troops battle at Kagoshima.. Russia enters War (9/22/2007 8:28:11 PM)

There was a recent discussion in the forums about nukes and iirc only bombers sent from tinian will use the boy's (not sure if this was confirmed though)

try this its not the one i remember but VSWG has put in 2 links (not read them)

Thanks Rob. It seems I'am not missing much with Nukes by reading the damage levels. Regular bombers are much more effective it seems.

Also looked at the screenshorts and it seems those test runs were flown out of China!!! That should mean that I can use the bomb outside Tinian and Terminus also stated that this would be the case.

Well.. battle on.. couple of bugs found in Russia and need to think hard on the future plans.




Monter_Trismegistos -> RE: US troops battle at Kagoshima.. Russia enters War (9/23/2007 1:34:58 PM)

You simply should change target - nuke-bomb factories instead of manpower...

Thanks.

I have targeted Sapporo's HI for past two turns.

I think the problem is at Kadina though. Propably a bit overstacked there. I will move the squadron out next turn and change for better commander.

Lets see whethet that works out a bit better.

Those are the major developments. Now that I conquered Arshaan I can start moving towards Central Manchuko.

I doubt Dave is able to hold Mutanchiang for long either.. just 70 000 men. Another Russian spearhead will begin to assault Tsihar from the North too.

I do not know whether is worth of landing more troops into this beachhead. Despite the heavy LBA bombings Japanese mustered adjusted defensive value of 35 000 few turns back.

Brief update is in order....


KABOOM, KABOOM and KABOOM.... well you guess it.. nukes did detonate but it exploded not once, not twice but three times into sama target!!! [X(][X(][X(] ...talk about an overkill. Well, Dave posted about in the bugs forum which is proper place for it.

Operation Olympic is stuck and will remain stuck for time being... LBA bombardments + Ground bombardments are made daily againts the enemy here.

In Burma Allied troops captured Rangoon. The city was abandoned by the enemy. Very low supply level indicates that my bombers did their job here nicely.

In Russia everything is coming along nicely. Forts were lowered at Mutanchiang and Tsihar. It is onlly matter of time when these bases will fall.

A piccie from Russia and how it is looking now...

Oh.. We had 3 x KABOOM... few days back as said it was definate overkill.

Hmmm. Maybe... we just have to check the rules regarding IJA China army moving into Manchuko. Actually I have been think of landing some US troops into Port Arthur! [;)]

Thus making the Russian campaign a four way thrust.

Actually thats a good idea imo. Is it time to abandon Olympic and 'just' aim for Korea instead ? [;)]. Also hows your PP's ? you could switch some Chinese to Russian command would reduce the strain on Chinese supply if you have a link to the USSR (no idea if this is actually possible )




aztez -> RE: US troops battle at Kagoshima.. Russia enters War (9/29/2007 8:52:12 PM)

No, No, I'am not going to abandon Operation Olympic. (Than again.. Why not... intresting idea but it is hard to get the troops out)

My PP's are low.. due to the fact that quite a few Chinese units are battling it out at Burma. The current frontline is at Moulmein.

At Russia the base at Tsitsihar was captured and Mutanchiang is crumbling...

Bye bye... next stop Hailar... well Mutanchiang should fall within a week or so. Without forts it cannot hold and he needs to evacuate too because of the Russian Northern army is moving into Central Manchuko.

Dave asked what had we agreed on IJA China army units moving in Manchuko. The initial agreement was that PP needed to be spent.. but I said that we can squash that Houserule if he wants.

I'am moving some units into Vladivostok due this. Also Russian divebombers with hit these enemy troops hard in forthcoming days.

Japanese are using paratroopers tactics very aggressively. Dave is dropping enemy units behind lines in order to cut my supply lines. I have to admit this is effective style. (Same tactic is used at Burma)

I can confirm that there seems to be IJA divisions from China coming towards Manchuko. At least 4-7 divisions I would estimate.

Moulmein should be seized soon. Heavy LBA bombing campaign is scheduled here too.


Other NEWS from frontline
 
 
I continue to bomb Japanese economy from Kadena, Iwo Jima and Bonin. There isn't actually a lot left to bomb anymore.

Big cloud was seen over Tokyo. US HQ confirmed that 2 Atomic Bombs were dropped. No news whether emperor is still alive.

aztez -> RE: US troops battle at Kagoshima.. Russia enters War (10/11/2007 4:37:35 PM)

Few thoughts and observations regarding Russia.

a) Russians do become massive force to be reckon with once the divisions upgrade. I think there are around 1 000 000 men storming around. Hard to stop.

b) See point a. If possible I would suggest that Japanese player takes out or neutralizes Russia before this happens.

c) If possible allied player should send in supplies into Russia via ships. (I haven't done this yet but definately will do it soon) The supply situation is not great due to immense number of troops it needs to feed.

d) Russian airforce is good later on but very much short legged. Look at their range and map. I think it would be good idea to send in some US bombers and fighters if your houserules don't deny this.

Just a few points that come in to mind.

Never used the red menace so can't comment about that ..but seems a bit odd they are supply short in aug 45 .. should have huge
amounts stockpiled imo.

Rob: Thanks! Hmmm.. This might sound stupid but how on earth I'am going the pick them up? Park my AK's and such into Kagoshima with Patrol/Do not retire orders and start loading them up?


I assume so.. I'll try it with an AK thats unloading at iwo in my game , i assume you can give load only troops to men on the
beaches ( like a reverse invasion).

I can confirm that Red Army eats a lot of supplies!!! I will propably ship in +300 000 units of supplies into Russia.

Hmmm... I guess it should work "vice versa" as you said.
