20/12/41 SS KXIV hits Taketoyo maru with one torpedo at Brunei first. She is carrying troops at the time. KXIV later hits with two more and sinks her taking in process one hit.[:)] My attack against Mersing and Miri yield 5 resource hits and 2 oil hits respectively. I will continue my campaing against oil/resources as long as possible as every hit is worth atleast 1k supply. My strategy (if one exisist) is based around not giving the enemy Resources(oil/supplies/fuel/resources) without a fight Enemy captures Brunei and the base force retreats to jungle. They will rot there to the bitter end, atleast they don't give points to enemy. Tavoy, Moulmein and Jolo are lost too, but Wake holds!!! Ground combat at Wake Island Japanese Shock attack Attacking force 1432 troops, 10 guns, 0 vehicles, Assault Value = 49 Defending force 1174 troops, 31 guns, 4 vehicles, Assault Value = 3 Japanese max assault: 68 - adjusted assault: 0 Allied max defense: 1 - adjusted defense: 2 Japanese assault odds: 0 to 1 (fort level 0) Japanese ground losses: 383 casualties reported Guns lost 5 [:D] Manila has been bombed daily. Casaulties are quite high. I am starting to get worried about KB. I don't have clue where it migth be, so I won't be using my carriers too much.[&:] MLE that starts the game in Tricomalee has arrived at Batavia and mining of DEI has started.[sm=00000028.gif] Here is a screenshot of situation at Borneo and Philippines. Enemy TF is probaly a bombardment run. There is 4 PTs meeting them at Tarakan. Next time I will give a shot from Malaysia. [image]local://upfiles/18363/388B6D8431C9408C9AAFD11B44AAD8D2.jpg[/image]

21/12/41 Quiet day this time. Enemy sub had left some mines at Darwin. 4 'sweepers on the cleaning duty. 8 Resources hits total recoded this turn on Miri, Moulmein and Mersing. Could be more due FOW. This seems a good strategy to follow. Ofcourse after a game year I will be shown otherwise. Taiping falls and Indian divsion that wasn't fast enough retreatd towars Singapore.

I have a couple of turns that haven't been reported yet. But my opponent has gone AWOL and I won't continue until I hear a peep from him.

vonSchintter has recoverd from virus in his computer. I will resume this AAR shortly. I think I have about 5 turns worth of writing to do.

22/12/41 Memory is quite foggy about the details and excat timings. My Asw forces score some serious hits against SS I-17 and it sinks later on. Imperial forces strike on Manado and starts an invasion. Campaing against Resources is going well. I have achieved many hits and caused some disturbance. 23/12/41 Wake is being bombarded and it finally falls. Those who died there will be remembered. My attack on Mersing faces a Long range cap of 16 Zeroes. My brave bombers still score some hits on resources. 24/12/41 Christmas eve gives me early present with Mikuma hitting mine near Tarakan. And SS I-24 is sunk by depth chrages. Johere Bahru, my second biggest airbase next to Singapore, is attacked and bombed to stoneage. Japanese capture Lamon bay. 25/12/41 Nothing major happens on Christmas day than Johore Bharu is bombed twice. 26/12/41 On boxing day mines on Wake hit again, this time on AK that is carrying troops. ASW forces score only near hits, but are getting there. Enemy subs have almost disappeard near Pearl. SS I-7 scores a torpedo on DD Aylwin. She might get home. Atleast I am hoping that she will. Kuala Lumpur is lost with only a minor damage on the resources there. Admiralty Islands is lost too.

28/12/41 Naval Bombardment of Kuching, Sorong and Amboina. Tarakan AK carrying troops hits mine, heavy damage ensues and some troop loses.[:)] Kuala Lumpur resource hits. Mersing Buffalos(2) and Vlidebeests(6) take casualites from Ki-43 Oscars, but manage one hit on resources. Air campaing over Malaysia starts to be too leathal and I plan to start evacuate rest of air forces in Singapore. Johre Bahru bombed from air by sallies with zeroes and oscars escorting. Kuching with Nells. Only minimal damage is scored in both places. Japanese capture Tarakan. Allied attack east of Ichang repulsed with moderate casualites. Chinese troops certainly need an overwhelming odds to win a battle. 29/12/41 Enemy has decided to keep Johre Bahru closed and continues to bombard it. Japanese capture Malacca. 30/12/41 S-36 shines again and puts a fish on AK Koei Maru which has troops on board.[:)] And then I have this weird combat result?? TF 248 encounters mine field at Bataan (42,51) Japanese Ships MSW Toshi Maru #2 MSW Rokko Maru MSW Choun Maru #18 MSW Choun Maru #7 Allied Ships DD Aylwin, and is sunk Japanese ground losses: 9 casualties reported I have no idea whatsoever...[&:] Rangoon air force (16xBuffalo&12xBlenheim I) bomb Moulmein resources for 2 hits. Johre Bahru is bombed, again. And Kuching too.[>:] Surprise bombing is Manila where there is serius hits on runway, airbase and supply, not mentioning 300 disabling hits on troops.[:(] Atleast 1 Betty is destroyed in process. Singapore airfield is emptied save one twelve plane Buffalo unit which will sweep Mersing in hopes of getting some easy kills. 31/12/41 ASW forces near Pearl Harbour have found numerous subs and are rattling them. There is hope that they will accumulate some sys damage and need to withdraw to repair. My sweep of Mersing is a success and 4 Ki-42-Ib Oscars have been shot down.[:D] This small victory shall be remembered for a long time. I shall try to sweep Johre Bahru as Japanese have captured it this turn as repeating same kind of success is allmost impossible against human player. Dadjangas has been captured by paratroops. I will try to sum last month in one post and state my strategy for next two months.

lagen -> RE: Into to fire: lagen(A) vs vonSchnitter(J) - record of Allied history (9/25/2006 1:21:14 PM)
Summary from last month: Enemy has advanced slowly but steadly and always under air cover. We have lost most of the Philippines save Manilla, Davao and some minor islands. Malaya has almost fallen too. Only Singapore offers some resistance. There has only been slight losses in both air and sea. On land there is some causulties but that is to excepted. Enemy has suffered only minor losses as there hs not been many decisive battles. Enemy air losses have been slilghly greater than ours, I try to keep it that way. I think this will change when vonSchintter goes after Palembang and Soerabaja. Overall: Coming next month Basic principle shall be defense in depth. Where it is not attainable delay is the order. I shall stay and try to fight it out as the japanese have all the advantages (numbers, quality and logistics) in all three arms. Mines have proved to be effective, so I will continue to lay them allmost everywhere. India: 18th British division has been transported to Colombo as have some evacs from Singapore. Bangalore looks like a good place for some mobile reserves. Karachi should also be garrisoned properly as we have no house rule that prevents its capture. There is enough troops near Calcutta that I won't send any reinforcements there. China: Currently there is battles at Nanchang, on its road to Shanghai, Ichang and on the hex east of it. The battle at Nanchangs is only a distraction and is meant to prevent opponents divisions to move anywhere where they could be useful. Ichang is more serius attempt and I hope that it will fall shortly. The battle on road to Nanchang will be lost and I hope that those corps retreating will do so direclty to the west. As then they will be again in the way of japanese troops. I know that they are only a speed bump but it is only thing that I have there. Chinese air force is a joke and I mean by experinece. The best avarage experince is 37 and I won't allow training flights under 30 exp and would prefer 40 exp. For a couple months nothing is going to fly in China under my colours, except AVG. Supply situation looks good for now. I won't be doing more than to offensive operations at time. Two should be sufficient number to be nuisance. Burma: Points of defenses are Rangoon, where envelopement move must be watched out, Mandalay and Akyab. All three will build fort level exclusively. There is no extra troops moving in to this area. Dutch East Indies: Extensive mine laying operation is being conducted here. Batavia, Palembang and Soerabaja all have well over 1000 mines each. Batavia and Soerabaja are my main points of defense. All troops, save some battallions, have relocated themselves either to Batavia or to Soerabaja. Balikpapan has 4 PTs guarding it but I fear that they will be strafed as has happened before. I might pull them back under air cover. Force Z is still loittering near Batavia. Australia: BFs at Broom, Derby and Wyndham are moved to Darwin and Daly Waters. One Cavalry division is moved to Alice Springs. Maybe I should move some troops to Perth as currently it is a merchant hub where ships from DEI will unload their cargo. North Pacific: Dutch Harbour is our western most base that will be built for the time being. Other bases are Kodiak Island and Anchorage. Central Pacific: Assault of Pearl is not going to happen in near future, but defenses are being constructed. Goal is to have as many mutually supporting level 4 airfields as possible. Those subamarines not of S-series are being used as mine laying subs. Strategy is one sub, one target, one week (atleast). Washington Island is to be built as an airfield. South Pacific: Suva has been desingnated as major hub for the area. Supplies and fuel will be shipped there. Nothing major is happening here yet. SouthWest Pacific: I don't have the troops to do anything here yet. I am planning to make Noumea the base of opertions there. Philippines: Manila and Davao shall hold to the last Malaya: I currently control only Singapore and all troops managed to withdraw there. Only one Buffalo squadron with 12 planes has been left there. West Coast: Troops gathering.... Soviet Union: Digging trenches everywhere and augumenting airfields. I doubt that vonSchintter will attack here but I am making sure that he is not going to suceed if he attacks. Plane production&upgrade: I am short of P-40s both tomahawks and warhawks. I have couple of both in my inventories but on field there is still shortage of them. B-17 or Liberator pools don't look good either, there is only a trickle both to them. I wouldn't get a massive fleets of 4 engine bombers if I wanted, yet. American 2e bombers I have plenty of, there is not enough units that use them. Hurricane IIbs start to appear in about a week. They shall be the point defense in India. And here is the top pool as most planes available: [image]local://upfiles/18363/55F1F29A152F458B85B441067889987A.jpg[/image]

Don't forget that Soviet squadrons can draw planes and pilots even if not activated. You can also upgrade to newer planes (Pe-2, for example), and increase training levels if you don't mind the ops losses (I would leave them at 0 during winter, though).

I left them out because they are not relevant currently as I think that vonSchnitter won't try to invade Russia. I have upgraded some of those Soviet planes and allocated pilots. I just haven't mentioned it here. There were many other planes that I didn't mention as they are not high on my priority list either front is too far back[>:] or the planes/pilots are allmost completely useless.[:(] As a sidenote, I got myself a brand new laptop![:D] This means that I can do turns and the AAR little more often. That is if my esteemed opponent does his turns, haven't heard of him for awhile. I have about two turns worth of writing to do. I might even do them today.

I have good and bad news. Bad news are that either hd or IDE controlled crashed on my desktop[:(] and I haven't heard of my opponent for quite long time. Good news are that my new laptop works and I can continue playing WITP with it and writing this AAR.[:)] 01/01/41 Enemy MSW tries to sweep Bataan, but Coastal guns of Manila sinks it.[:)] A small victory but I take it. Amboina is being bombarded with 2 BBs and 2 CLs. It causes some casualties but not anything major. My sweep against Johore Bahru fails but only one Buffalo is lost. I try to sweep some otger base this time. The enemey retaliates and tries to bomb Singapore causing insignificant causalties and runway hits. Antoher target is Kuching, but again no real damage is done. Interesting attack is against 2/1 Independent Coy at Kavieng by KBs Vals. They cause quite much damage, but they have reaveled their location. Now the question is: Are they going to assault Rabaul? I think that attack is iminent. I don't have any real ground, air or naval forces currently at the area. As long as KB is there I consider the possibility of raiding with one CV in central pacific. But anycase I won't send it yet. Japanese capture Jesselton and Cotabato, both with paratroops.

Current thoughts There is three sparate carrier groups operating that I can see. One is near Kendari, one is next to Kavieng and the last is two hexes to west from Canton Island. The one near Kendari is probably composed only of CVE and CVL but the other twos compostion is mystery to me. If some light is shed to the situation I can act. As the CV fleet is accompanied with a transport fleet I strongly feel that they will take Canton Island. Lexginton has been ordered to move out of Pearl Harbour. She will be used if there is an openning. Same goes for the DD/CL fleet at Darwin. It will sortie out if enemy surface fleet leaves from Amboina.

Current toughts Today lots of ground reinforcements entered. A baseforce and RCT was ordered to move to Palmyra Island. Tomorrow more troop movement s will be conducted as then I will have more shipping. I made a mistake and didn't have enough shipping to ship all the necessary troops to their destinations. Next big batch of reinforcements is due in 18 days at Panama. I must make sure that I have enough shipping available for them. Tomorrow second batch of Hurricanes will arrive. They will be used as point defense in India. We(me and my opponent) have decided not to upgrade to 1.802 as it can cause more problems than to it fixes. Here is one of the hot spots.

I think that will change when I have more better palnes than now and start conducting major air operations. I am starting to see why playing the allies is somewhat depressing and the urge to make an counter-attack rises. But still we have only played 38 turns. Many more still to come and the real fight is not over yet.

I am sorry about the pause. RealLife(tm) interfered the writing of this AAR, luckily I had just time to do my turns. Current thoughts I feel pleased how many aircraft the enemy is losing to flak and operative losses. If this continues I will someday have 2-to-1 advantage in aircraftlosses points. On the otherhand I fear that I shall face the same when I start major airoperations. Ground units and aircraft have just started to roll off from their assebmly lines and I start to feel that I have little more secure bases. Bad things is that I forgot to put any escort for the tanker group(that got fired upon twice by the same sub). I usually forget something trivial. Enemy has decided to cut-off Java from Australia by occupying Timor, east part of it for the time being. I have withdrawn my minelaying force from Java and sent it away. As a last parting gift it gave about 15 subs mines and they started to spred them to enemy bases. Quite large amount of SWPAC aircraft has arrived and are on the to Brisbane and Noumea. Same goes for the ground troops.

Hi You will run out off supply in the eastern parts of China and your troops will starve and die. Better to move them towards Chunking now. That part of the country is lost. Yennan for example will only be able to support it's static units come july 42. Honan is also a lost cause. Q

As troops in Yennan are Communists and they have been "fortified" (they can't move) and there is supply generated in Honan and surrounding bases. So I think that I don't need to withdraw from there.
