Force Z was never even sighted much less attacked. I dont expect him to come north this time. I figure he will lie in wait for an invasion of NW Borneo. 324 allied a/c destroyed for 19 of the Imperial forces and 4 minis. Something new on the combat report: Ground combat at Batan Island (85,70) Japanese Shock attack Attacking force 1593 troops, 18 guns, 0 vehicles, Assault Value = 61 Defending force 0 troops, 0 guns, 0 vehicles, Assault Value = 0 Japanese max assault: 126 - adjusted assault: 29 Allied max defense: 0 - adjusted defense: 1 Japanese assault odds: 29 to 1 (fort level 0) Japanese forces CAPTURE Batan Island !!! Combat modifiers Attacker: shock(+) Assaulting units: Sasebo 1st SNLF 24th JAAF AF Bn For those of us that like to play with animations off, now we at least have an idea what we are up against. Force deployments have changed slightly, but not enough to change the basic plan. However, the manner in which I am going to do it will. Instead of using my bombers for naval attack I am going to concentrate on naval search to spot his ships. He has no effective anti-naval bombers in the area so in order to avoid losses to his CAP fighters, I will just spot him so I can gun them down ship to ship. I have the early war advantage in experience. Initial targets on the PI invasion will be a few undefended airfields and ports that I can base my search planes at in the middle and lower PI. These will be taken by fast transport groups and para assault. Cayagan will still be a major target of course. KB will not loiter this time. One of the bugs in the last version was ship based seaplanes that canceled because of weather showed up on the map, so he had a pretty good idea where all my capital ships were. 16 division will hit the north side with 48th.
