Either way, this whole venture is really a waste on Daves part. Strategically, him doing this works in your favor, because he didn't pursue more valuable targets and he wasted his precious happy times for an otherwise strategically unvaluable target. What does he get out of capturing NZ? Even if he does? Basically nothing. The amount of gain for the time spent isn't worth it at all. I don't deny that he's a good player but I don't see how going for NZ at this point under these circumstances is worth it at all. Maybe if it was 1943 and he had already eliminated the threat of U.S. naval power. Maybe he thought you would just panick and send your remaining carriers in there outclassed and outgunned, he must have. But even then, he should have took up a more threatening position, such positions were easily within his reach.

jrlans -> RE: June 1942 (10/27/2009 8:56:24 PM)
I think Dave is in a real pickle now as it were. If he backs KB off to prevent them from getting hit, he leaves his transports and BBs open, as well as what forces he has landed isolated with minimal supply. If he keeps KB around to help cover the invasion or cover a retreat he risks loosing a CV or 2. The next 2 turns should be interesting. As a sidenote you might want to thin about flying your TBs back to your CVs so they can use torps against his BBs if they get in range and your CVs are safe.

Swenslim -> RE: June 1942 (10/27/2009 9:00:34 PM)
Good for you that in the game no option for bombardment of airfields, with all this stuck planes he would oblitirate them.

aztez -> RE: June 1942 (10/27/2009 9:12:02 PM)
Yamato_Blitzer: I think he wanted to keep the momentum. Keep in mind that the losses so far has been horrific and one sided! If he could have taken out Fiji swiftly and low cost than he would have eliminated another solid airfield in this region. By taking out NZ he limits the options I have to on the offensive mode. Also, he kills quite a few ground units along the way and prevents reinforcements from appearing. Maybe he even wanted an cv vs cv battles. By looks of it I really should have come up short on that one. All in all the above things propably should explain a lot of things. Also, since this is an PBEM game there is always an psychological warfare ongoing which has longterm effects. All in all he is an gentleman. The proposed china front changes etc he made speak volumes. Now we must keep momentum ongoing. There will increased allied airforce activity in Burma. jrlans: Yeah, I think he needs to sacrifice even more carrier pilots since he cannot naval nuke my base at Suva. Thus meaning KB will stay put and most propably will launch some strikes. The good thing is that he needs to keep some of his bombers on naval strikes too since I have surface combat vessels in the area. Also he might underestimate my airpower. As you can notice I have some fresh torpedo aircraft and dive bombers ready to go. Personally I want to see those Helldivers in action next turn along with RN torpedo bombers. Next couple of rounds will be intresting for sure. I actually would like to run the combat replay file before heading out to bed. Another intresting attachment is the "test" turn where I had all my naval assets set on 10 000 feet naval strikes at Suva. This is not an gameplay turn but kind of an test. There is no chance of moving those aircraft back into carriers since the fleet is gone. I send the carriers out with full speed ahead once they off loaded. Those carriers would not be fit action either in full scale. I moved a lot of squadrons out and it would be "foolish" to risk anything. I can afford to lose aircraft but not the ships that go with them. The carriers are heading to safe waters asap and will equip decks with carrier capable fighters and bombers. These squadrons in action will be flown out to NZ once they need refit and rest. I will upgrade few of those units as well. Swenslim: True. I did overstack the airfield initially but I think it was still the best thing to do. We did launch several strikes.. and few of them were "big" ones. There are severe penalties for stacking the airfields and I did pay those. So, it was an gamble but the positive gains overwhelmed the risks. Now I have few fresh squadrons ready to go and he does not think there any left. How wrong he is IF these guys do take off. As for the bombardment. Well, I have absolutely no desire to back to the "nuke" bombardments made in classic Witp. Remember these rules cut both ways in future battles. There will be times when we will face same situations. Allthough if possible I intend to gain lba base immediately with decisive landing before the main fleet enters area.

offenseman -> RE: June 1942 (10/28/2009 1:37:01 AM)
To several- JR... I guess I am old too. [:D] That was a brilliant victory Aztez! [&o] Many good comments have already been made, here is some more food for thought. Depending on how he changed his Kate production, those losses could neuter KB's torpedo aircraft capabilities for awhile. I've got a feeling that he you are going to get those BBs...

Ketza -> RE: June 1942 (10/28/2009 2:23:49 AM)
My biggest fear as Japan is land based USN planes. Im always looking out for them. Well played.

seydlitz_slith -> RE: June 1942 (10/28/2009 5:21:02 AM)
Since no one else commented on it, I see that Dave managed to kill the Boise. Actually it looks like she was the first cruiser to die. Aztez, the Helldivers that you are referring to are the old biplane Helldivers, right? They belong right there with the swordfish making attacks.[:D] I think that having 2 day turns really helped here since airfields will be overstacked on day one, and on day two the excess will most likely fly due to losses on day one. Interesting proposal on China. Trying to think like Dave, what does he get long term.... 1. All units in China can go on rest/train for a year or two. 2. He can turn replacements off and use all of those to repair and upgrade units in the other areas. 3. He has your oil in China and much of the resources, so he has what he needs. 4. The air unit restrictions do not hurt him much since the units are obsolete. It does give him assurance that you won't be bombing Japan in late 1943/1944 using heavy bombers flying from bases in China. 5. He can still buy troops out in from Korea, so that still gives him up to 4,000 AV of good troops to deploy elsewhere. The heavy artillery would be especially worthwhile to him as there are about 20 units of good artillery there that he could use in preparing his defences. Just be glad that he can't dig up border forts and move them. Those things are the toughest units in the game. 6. He gains a psycholigical victory in knowing that he beat you down in China to the point that you discussed peace in that theater. I would be tempted to keep the fighting going in China even though it looks hopeless because your tide is rising even as he recedes. Every drop of blood that he sheds is a drop that can't be replaced easily.

aztez -> RE: June 1942 (10/28/2009 6:31:17 AM)
offenseman: Thanks. It could have even better but than again worse. So, one needs be satisfiied. We did shoot down bunch of bombers and more importantly their crews. I think he will have tough time replacing them It seems that maybe those battleships got away. I'am at work but just got the turn to the inbox stating the following: "Nothing too exciting. I trade some more carrier air for more of your ships." That is not bad though since those ships were 90% damaged anyway. I will run the turn this evening to see how things played out. Ketza: Don't be too worried though since most of lba bombers cannot hit a thing in 1942! seydlitz: Yeah, CL Boise is gone but she did an brave service. I know, it is kind of sad to see her gone! That ship has been amazing for me since the first time played witp. Hmmm, not sure. I moved them out of CV Hornet so no. They are not bi-planes at all. Those guys were normal divebombers allthough it seems they didn't do their jobs judging by Dave's comments. Yeah, 2 day turns have it good sides and personally I highly recommend anyone starting this game to use multiple day turns. They are way more exciting. Very well thought out views and really cannot argue againts those. It is all about supply and resources. He gets more of them and gains peaceful front where he doesn't need to worry on anything. I might need to clarify. The war in China is not ended yet. We have all front ceasefire until 19th of june 1942. Also Dave stated that IF I need extra time northern china that can be arranged. During the next two weeks there will be no offensive action started by either side and he is not going to move his troops out to new locations. I can move my units around freely and I need to make most of this window! The turn update will later tonight. I have somewhat busy schedule today.

Swenslim -> RE: June 1942 (10/28/2009 10:27:35 AM)
What is your supply stock at China ? After loosing many resource centres, especially Sian wich had 3200 res and 62 fuel per day ? There is probabilty that you will not be able to restrore destroyed TOE and fully supply your troops. And with Sian in hands he can in any moment destroy your industry, because it is in range of Oscars and Sallys.

Rob Brennan UK -> RE: June 1942 (10/28/2009 8:17:53 PM)
A belated congratulations there Aztez [&o] Nicely Done ! Looks like your Wildcat pilots survived exteremely well too judging from the screenshot. don't suppose you have any landbased F3's anywhere you could upgrade to F4's increasing the F3 pool as i assume your not planning on upgrading the Suva based ones untill this operation is over ? As for China , I think you both win here. plenty of time for all those chinese disblements to get better will help chinas AV enormously and you can train too , exp 50+ is a LOT better then the current levels on most chinese corps. Out of curiosity are you flying in supplies from Ledo ? the unnamed city 2 hexes westish of chungking is in range of ledo for DC'2 etc and imo far better than flying supply into the mountain citys further east. Build it up to a level 4 ofc to help prevent ops losses but you dont need aviation support just a couple of corps or divs with a few eng squads can do it easily. cant wait for day 2 [X(]

aztez -> RE: June 1942 (10/28/2009 10:00:51 PM)
Awfully busy day and dead beat. I just managed to get the turn done. My apologizes if todays update is not as detailed as usual. Simply exchausted by the RL today. I was thinking about doing 4 day update tomorrow but I know many of you were intrested on the 2nd turn of operation Fortune so opted to get this out. Swenslim: To be honest it is bad! The battles so far has cost me so much supplies and lost territory that I can barely manage at the moment. The loss of Sian does basically mean that the supply/resource points from north are stopped. In the longrun this will affect my economy badly. Actually thinking at the moment whether it would be wise to pull out of Changhsa and southern area and withdraw towards central china where he does not have the railroad system and I could put up an tight defense. I know I will lose more resources by doing this but than again I will lose the central china next or at least it seems undefendable to me. What do you guys think of the "organized retreat" towards Chungking??? Rob: Thanks mate. Btw, I will answer you and LoBarons emails later this week. Appreciated the comments. I was going to do that today but well it is getting late back here. Yeah, the pilots are ok even with the 2nd turn of fighting. The aircraft are the problem. Those Wildcats did not have drop tanks so they need to be disbanded and reformed within 60 days. I did this to few Devastators and bought them out immediately with PP via intel screen. That suits me fine since they will appear in the west coast and that is the place where my carriers are heading for repairs. These ships have accumalated mediocre high SYS damage since they have sailing for longtime now. I will propably upgrade some land based Wilcats first and once I get the carrier trained back than I will switch between them. I think I propably win more since well I was doomed. Now I have an slim chance of doing something and that is why I'am thinking about the organized retreat option. My av value is too thin and the troops are too spread out. I might ask him an extra two weeks to get the mess at north sorted out! The movement is simply very slow. Yeah, I'am using Ledo for those missions. Only problem being the lack of transport aircraft!

aztez -> RE: June 1942 (10/28/2009 10:02:15 PM)
Operation Fortune (june 5th - 6th 1942) The flurry of action was done by the japanese this turn. Our carrier aircraft did not take off due to poor weather conditions and lack of escorts. Here is what happened... MORNING JUNE 5th -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Night Time Surface Combat, near Suva at 131,161, Range 12,000 Yards Japanese Ships BB Yamashiro BB Hyuga DD Hatsushima DD Asagiri Allied Ships DD Hammann DD Mustin DD Vendetta Reduced sighting due to 60% moonlight Maximum visibility in Overcast Conditions and 60% moonlight: 10,000 yards Range closes to 11,000 yards...

Estimated time to target is 15 minutes Japanese aircraft D3A1 Val x 41 Allied aircraft F4F-3 Wildcat x 4 Japanese aircraft losses D3A1 Val: 1 destroyed, 4 damaged Allied Ships DD Van Ghent, Bomb hits 2, and is sunk DD Vendetta, Bomb hits 2, heavy fires, heavy damage DD Piet Hein, heavy fires, heavy damage DD Hammann DD Mustin, Bomb hits 1, on fire, heavy damage MORNING JUNE 6th 1942 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Morning Air attack on TF, near Suva at 132,160 Weather in hex: Severe storms Raid detected at 160 NM, estimated altitude 18,000 feet. Estimated time to target is 60 minutes Japanese aircraft A6M2 Zero x 43 B5N2 Kate x 13 D3A1 Val x 19 Allied aircraft F4F-3 Wildcat x 10 Japanese aircraft losses A6M2 Zero: 1 destroyed B5N2 Kate: 1 destroyed, 2 damaged Allied aircraft losses F4F-3 Wildcat: 2 destroyed Allied Ships CL De Ruyter DD Mustin, Bomb hits 2, and is sunk DD Stronghold AFTERNOON JUNE 6th 1942 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Afternoon Air attack on TF, near Suva at 132,160 Weather in hex: Clear sky Raid detected at 160 NM, estimated altitude 18,000 feet. Estimated time to target is 60 minutes Japanese aircraft A6M2 Zero x 29 B5N2 Kate x 76 D3A1 Val x 122 Allied aircraft F4F-3 Wildcat x 6 Japanese aircraft losses A6M2 Zero: 1 destroyed B5N2 Kate: 11 damaged D3A1 Val: 1 destroyed, 14 damaged Allied aircraft losses Allied Ships CL De Ruyter, Bomb hits 2, and is sunk DD Kortenaer, Bomb hits 2, and is sunk DD Stronghold, Torpedo hits 1, and is sunk DD Hammann DD Van Nes, Bomb hits 4, and is sunk DD Evertsen That concluded the action from Fijis. I was somewhat disappointed by two things A) Those 2 battleships were able move towards KB and B) The weather was poor last turn and reflected badly into our operations. I have now moved some divebombers into NZ and these guys are resting and taking replacements. US fighters are set on 90% CAP next turn since he has now moved lba fighters in the region. The SBD's are set on 25 000 feet navalstrike with maxium range of 8. The british torpedo bomberse are set on max range at 20 000 feet. By flying this high I'am hopeful that we can overwhelm the CAP if our ac's fly out into missions. Overall I'am more than satisfied how this played out for me. We might have lost some valuable assets but the gains are good in return! [image]local://upfiles/15617/52A7A0C3DB7748F4B8B6904D1308593E.jpg[/image]

crsutton -> RE: June 1942 (10/28/2009 10:54:22 PM)
SBC4 Helldiver. They come with the Hornet when she arrives in the Eastern US. Fun to play with but you should have switched them out for the dauntless as they only carry a 500 lb bomb. Pretty cool to look at though. [image]local://upfiles/8095/83EA97EB86B34B3DAE11AD8BA2A6CD2F.jpg[/image]

SuluSea -> RE: June 1942 (10/29/2009 2:57:42 AM)
Aztez, did you build Kanduva Island into a size one airfield or was it like that out of the box? Patch one is only a size one port/ zero airfield. Great photo CRSutton, boy those guys at life were good with a camera.

aztez -> RE: June 1942 (10/29/2009 6:31:50 AM)
crsutton: Very nice picture! I will switch them soon and fly these beast to New Zealand. SuluSea: Yeah, I did build it up into level 1 airfield which in hindsight wasn't an good move. At Nadi he has level 3 airfield in place so he can definately base decent amount of lba fighters into region. That improvement on the next patch sounds good.

LoBaron -> RE: June 1942 (10/29/2009 7:47:41 AM)
Good operation Aztez! [&o] Question will be wether he sticks around with KB hoping to deplete your AF on suva enough to re-supply the landed troops of if he gives up and returns to truk for RR. Somehow i have the feeling that this aint over yet. Do you think you can hold Suva with the troops there? If yes this will be a battle of attrition and the side that can reinforce better wins (with better chances on the Allied side). I think he made life hard for himself with this operation anyway. I think that the standstill in China helps you to get things under control again. Hope that my comments on China help a bit or at least contribute as another point of view. Take your time responding to our mails, thats not so important (although id like to know if it helped some) I think Rob sent you a much more detailed analysis than me and i didnt take an as in deep look so if in some areas our views contradict id put my money on Rob and not myself. [;)]

skrewball -> RE: June 1942 (10/29/2009 8:49:34 AM)
Suva could be your Guadalcanal. The winner will be who throws the most meat into the grinder! Do you have any reinforcements on the way?

Sardaukar -> RE: June 1942 (10/29/2009 12:21:22 PM)
I think your strikes may be going in too high. Since escorting fighters fly 2k above strike, you are putting Wildcats into unfavourable position. Check there database maneuverability of Wildcat vs. Zero at 20-25k and 25k-30k. On the other hand, flying high may prevent Zero's getting a bounce, but 22k or 27k for escorts is bit high for Wildcat. I think those Helldivers might actually be SB2C Helldivers, since there was mistake in data for couple of US carriers, that gave them SB2C Helldivers year too early or so.

aztez -> RE: June 1942 (10/29/2009 7:52:10 PM)
LoBaron: Thanks. This really good have even better. As said happy with results though. KB seems to be moving out and he is moving more lba fighters into area. The last turn was not an good one though. I think that settled the Suva's faith but it was an blast at least. China.. well enough said and it seems hopeless adventure. I will post an pic from there detailing rough av values around the map. I think It propably would be wise to move units towards Chungking even from Changhsa and Liuchow. These will be overrun once he get the motion ongoing. Simply because he can use railroad movement. Appreacited the emails as said. This weeks seems very busy though in RL terms. I got the daughters coming tomorrow and just got back from work. skrewball: I still somewhat thin on infantry units and to be honest I cannot move ships in with proper aircover and these propably would massacred before they even would see the Fiji's. To answer your question well no. I decieded againts it even before this operation was launched. If this had happened before Pago Pago was overrun than it would totally diffrent story. Sardaukar: Maybe, none of my bombers flew last turn and he brought in maybe additional division with supporting elements. There are now 11 units at Nadi. I reversed my orders and now all of the bombers are at 10 000 feet with escorting fighters at 18 000 feet. Hopefully we at least hit something since I really was out of luck last turn. Those ships were spotted though by SBD's. Unfortunately none of my squadrons took off. Fishbed: I think those are the float version Helldivers. To settle it took an pic.

China (june 8 1942) I took an pic from China. The map shows rough estimate of av values currently in the map. I think I'am spread out too much and as I stated above considering abandoning southern and central china. To me these areas seem deathtraps and will not serve the bigger purpose. Than again I'am not an expert on china warfare. Just another allied player on these forums having his butt kicked towards Burma.

No, see my earlier post and photo. In the game, the Hornet arrives on the East Coast with the pre-war Helldiver biplane. A lot of people have complained on the forum about this thinking it was the mid war Helldiver monoplane divebomber. It is not. They just share the same nickname. Go to the aircraft description window and click on the SBC-4. I also posted a pretty nice video of this plane and a lot of early navy models on the main forum page.

aztez -> RE: June 1942 (10/29/2009 9:47:01 PM)
I drew an raw sketch what the chinese inner defensive lines would look like. Granted I would lose industry cities down in central and southern china but are they worth the battles anymore? Changhsa has level 5 forts while rest are up at level 4. Once the ceasefire is over he can start focusing his armies towards them if he chooses to do so. The railroad system allows fast deployment moves. Here is an one option which at least should give us better defensive perimeter. Only problem being lack of industry that is occupied by the chinese forces. Remember this is only an sketch plan... [image]local://upfiles/15617/20D11CEB46644F22A1BF32CB7F8E83E9.jpg[/image]

Yamato_Blitzer -> RE: June 1942 (10/29/2009 11:37:06 PM)
IMO, the majority of China is as good as lost and the best thing to do is retreat to the interior or defend less bases than you're defending now....Defending all those bases spread out, lacking supply and quality is mere fodder, he will break through it all because all he has to do is form those massively concentrated armies and strike where ever he feels like. I would either defend less bases and/or set it up so that you can encircle him, danger of encirclement is the disadvantage of his tactics and it can be done. You can't plan an encirclement yet, but you can later. You will have to cede some cities, but that's inevitable regardless of anything, that's the long term cost of what happened at Sian, your losses were simply to high. Spreading out your troops that much isn't gonna help, it's wasteful. You basically have to match him in AV to successfully ward him off at any base and keep loss ratio decent. Those bases with 700-800 av will definitely be wasteful engagements. I just think your losses will once again be unacceptably high with that set up.

aztez -> RE: June 1942 (10/30/2009 8:05:47 AM)
LoBaron: To be honest. I don't know what would be the effect of abandoning Changhsa, Liuchow and Kweilin. I'am speaking in terms of supplies. The way I see IF I stay out the way I'am doing at the moment than I'am playing into his hands. He can go around and take one stack at an time. Things are not looking up here. Yamato_Blitzer: Those av values just showed how things are at the moment. That was no indication how the setup will be made. Thanks for the comments. So, we basically agree that leaving the southern and central china is an good idea. Those 800av hexes need to changed and as said that just is the setup at the moment. Which needs to be changed. Those hexes I marked were based on the road system but you are suggesting moving into even tighter formation in inner china?

LoBaron -> RE: June 1942 (10/30/2009 10:02:09 AM)
No id never pull out without a fight there. Its a good location for a counterattack and you give up fortresses for free. you got a lot of units there its a matter of supply though if you can stage one. So the critical point is to keep the west. thats the only area where you can fly supplies in. if you can do both its better naturally, if you cant the west is more important than any frontline city IMO. also can you do recon to check if he depleted his forces in the south to stage the attack on Sian? Edit: im just trying to see things from the Japanese side. If i dont want to go India then steamrolling western China with my Burma army would be a very lucrative option. Basically if i capture Kunming then the war in China is over. And remember he HAS a couple of AV´s in Burma.

The only problem with that is the fact that he has quality troops and a lot of them. If you look at the region only bonus I get are those level 5 forts. He can move a lot of units very quickly into central china due to railroad movement. I assume within an month he can have at least 4000av assaulting the base. I guess he will also move towards the are from south. I'am not too certain it wise to commit my forces here. Only downside are those supply losses. There is absolutely 0% chance of me launching counterstrikes near Sian. Simply because I'am barely hanging on.

crsutton -> RE: June 1942 (10/30/2009 4:11:42 PM)
Aztec, don't feel too bad. I am seven weeks into my game and about to lose Changsha and Siam. I think I know what I am doing but am getting my butt kicked in China anyways.
