Happenings the SRA: up to 1/14 Can't remember last time I did an update. Not a ton of happenings, and we have stalled a bit after alot of initial momentum. Hope to get things going shortly. DEI The invasion completed unloading at Kragen, and most of 23rd Army is marching on Madioen, where the Dutch seem to be making a stand. A couple small units are moving up the tracks toward Batavia, to pave the way for the rest of the troops once Soerbaya is cleared. Between the 9th and 12th, we shot down over 35 Dutch aircraft, including 14 Martins, and their attacks have become very tepid. with the successful landing, we moved all the Zeros in the SRA to Burma, where John put them to VERY good effect! Only IJA air is down there now. Phillipines This turn, I noticed that the units at Clark are retreating to Bataan. Only 4 units remain, I am shock attacking them, though they may just hit air. A couple days ago we nearly pulled a 2-1, so they wisely decided to pull back to better terrain. We will have a decision to make now on where to go: Bataan, or Manila. We'll probably try Manila first, see if we can knock it over. There are a ton of subs at Manila, no doubt lifting out fragments of those base forces and HQs. Malaya We ran into a brick wall at Singapore; we will concentrate all our forces and try again shortly. Next Steps This is a note for John as well, just putting it out on the forum for all to see. We have a few decisions to make in terms of troop dispositions. REINFORCEMENTS: We just received a ton of SNLF forces at Tokyo. I think we should send a couple to Singapore to join the India landings, as a screening force. A couple should go to Palau/Timor, to assist with taking Northern Oz. The rest we should send out into the Cent Pac and Sou Pac to guard against Allied moves. The OOB and timing for India will become alot clearer shortly, with how quickly we can close out PI, Malaya, and Java. We are going to reorganize the subs, many are headed to Kwaj to swap out captains. I have told John I think the Allied CV's are at Pearl; passing subs were spotted by a Dauntless recently, and a whole flock of SOC Seagulls, indicating a bunch of cruisers. I also think the most obvious place for the Allies to counterattack are Wake and Marcus. Wake is building nicely, we probably need to get some guys out to Marcus to start building that up as well.
