LoBaron: Thanx. We are grinding on towards the end date. Well.. lets just say that if the submarine losses would be any higher Allied player doesn't need to worry about them since they are all sunk. Pacific (September 10th 1945) Japan We are continuing the to hit Japanese industry (manpower) with allied and russian bombers. Dave launched some airstrikes againts our airfields at Philippines so that did ease the pressure a bit. Temporarily though. Next turn there will 2nd A-bomb dropped at Osaka/Kyoto. It is the biggest Japanese industrial city in range at the moment. Nagasaki and Hiroshima are pretty mauled already. Philippines Japanese bombers have hit Tacloban and Guluian in Leyte area. Allthough he managed to torch some B29's and other bombers the losses were high for him. Few hundred fighters and bombers were shot down by allied aircraft. I'am conducting some troop movements here along cleaning up the flanks and rear areas. Everything is ongoing according to the plans. China Nothing major to report. I think he is moving troops towards Manchuko where the big battles are raging. Burma Some allied troops are advancing further into Malaya peninsula. Japanese also have tried some bomber attacks with heavy losses. BB Fuso and some cruisers bombarded Bangkok couple of days ago so he has some naval assets still in that area. Russia There has been major ground battle raging at Mutankiang and slowly but surely we are gaining upper hand. This is the last turns result... -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Ground combat at Mutankiang (111,42) Allied Deliberate attack Attacking force 108915 troops, 2529 guns, 2688 vehicles, Assault Value = 4139 Defending force 47843 troops, 817 guns, 613 vehicles, Assault Value = 831 Allied adjusted assault: 1025 Japanese adjusted defense: 1215 Allied assault odds: 1 to 2 (fort level 0) Combat modifiers Defender: terrain(+), preparation(-), experience(-) Attacker: Japanese ground losses: 5443 casualties reported Squads: 171 destroyed, 123 disabled Non Combat: 7 destroyed, 80 disabled Engineers: 2 destroyed, 16 disabled Guns lost 176 (81 destroyed, 95 disabled) Vehicles lost 43 (14 destroyed, 29 disabled) Allied ground losses: 1968 casualties reported Squads: 87 destroyed, 148 disabled Non Combat: 96 destroyed, 78 disabled Engineers: 5 destroyed, 38 disabled Guns lost 61 (10 destroyed, 51 disabled) Vehicles lost 138 (69 destroyed, 69 disabled) Units destroyed 1 Assaulting units: 55th Motorcycle Battalion 113th Rifle Brigade 208th Tank Brigade 215th Rifle Division 371st Rifle Division 77th Tank Brigade 159th Rifle Division 72nd Tank Brigade 42nd Mechanized Brigade 184th Rifle Division 40th Rifle Division 1419th SU Regiment 105th Rifle Division 72nd Mechanized Brigade 75th Tank Brigade 22nd Rifle Division 1st Ussurii Tank Brigade 1207th SU Regiment 300th Rifle Division 210th Tank Brigade 59th Rifle Division 259th Tank Brigade 366th Rifle Division 231st Rifle Division 88th Rifle Brigade 46th Engr-Sapper Brigade 61st Anti-Tank Brigade 76th Tank Brigade 925th Artillery Regiment 1634th AA Regiment 56th Hvy.Mortar Brigade 282nd Cannon Regiment 2nd Far East Front 283rd Guards Mortar Regiment 947th Artillery Regiment 2nd/307th Gd.Mortar Regiment 26th/42nd Gd.Mortar Regiment 219th Corps Art Brigade 2nd Guards Mortar Battalion 621st Mortar Regiment 215th Howitzer Regiment Defending units: 72nd Ind.Mixed Brigade 128th Division 221st Div /1 9th/B Division 17th Ind.Mixed Rgt /5 3rd Ind.Tank Brigade 9th/A Division 9th/C Division 126th Division 7th SP Gun Battalion 1st Ind.Tank Co 71st Ind.Mixed Bde /1 5th Garrison Unit 79th Div /1 2nd JAAF Base Force 3rd Hvy.Artillery Regiment 1st Glider Inf.

Pacific (September 17th 1945) Japan We have held the B29's back for future operations. However we did drop 3rd A-bomb of the war into Tokyo. It seems to have caused quite a lot havoc since it bagged around 11 000 victory points... -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Morning Air attack on Tokyo , at 114,60 Weather in hex: Severe storms Raid spotted at 74 NM, estimated altitude 23,000 feet.

Philippines We continue to clear the rear and flank bases in this area. Last turn we overrun the enemy forces at Sangihe. Allied bombers are also hitting several enemy airbases in this region in order to burn supplies and cause distruption. China Not much ongoing yet..

I hear from Dave that we seem to have run out of pilot slots. Oh well.. we will work it through and I suppose the game is not designed to go this far! [:D] ..on a not so good news! My Acer Aspire laptop seems do retired. No picture either to the LCD screen.. external monitor or anything. Thus either the damn motherboard, ATI graphics "card" or processor has had enough. At least the harddrive seems to be working... 1000 x [:@][:@]! Need to sort this through before we continue the game. Damn it..

JocMeister -> RE: September 1945 (9/4/2012 7:11:52 PM)
I think there is a "special" .exe file that allows for more pilots slots! Will see if I can find it somewhere. Sorry to hear you laptop died. [:(] EDIT: Here you go! [:)] http://www.matrixgames.com/forums/tm.asp?m=2859420

aztez -> RE: September 1945 (9/11/2012 4:48:55 PM)
Thanx JocMeister. I did read about that special .exe file so we will check it out if needed. Yeah, it is officially dead! RIP that Acer crap! [:@][:D] At the moment still out of the laptop but got the 3rd party diagnose that the Acer is not worth repairing. Thus need to sort things out with the insurance company. The good news is that I just ordered Asus N76 17" model laptop which should be top quality. It might take a week to arrive... and than I need to install the game and setup the damn thing. That obviously will mean that PBEM games are on hold 100% sure until next week. Also must say that I hate this old desktop machine and the mobile broadband stick that enables the Internet use. It is driving me nuts! [:D][:-]

JocMeister -> RE: September 1945 (9/11/2012 7:51:09 PM)
Haha, I�m always using my desktop. Got to love all the bang you get for the buck when not buying a laptop! [:D] Good to hear the game will resume shortly! Good luck!

aztez -> RE: September 1945 (9/19/2012 5:03:18 PM)
Small update. I did just pick up my ASUS G75V laptop. This seems like an beast to say at least. Thus meaning that the PBEM games will continue shortly once I get this sorted out and everything installed.

Aztez: Thanks for sticking this out and reporting back to the community all this late game stuff. Yeoman service, my friend. Nuke 'em till they glow! Cheers, CC

aztez -> RE: September 1945 (9/21/2012 5:05:28 AM)
Commander Cody: Appreciated! Yeah.. we still have about 1 year to go in this PBEM so plenty of action left. I will definately increase the campaign againts Home Islands in forthcoming months since actually received bunch of new shiny B29's turn or two ago. The game will resume in the weekend. Finally got the new ASUS laptop tweaked last night. The bad thing about these "stops" is that you really don't remember 1/2 what you were doing! [:D]

JocMeister -> RE: September 1945 (9/21/2012 5:58:55 AM)
Can�t wait! [:)]

aztez -> RE: September 1945 (9/23/2012 6:48:44 AM)
We are back in action. To be honest the whole setup was dazzling.. and most likely forgot a lot of things that I were doing. Anyway, pretty quiet turn in all... but the main thing is that the game is moving forward. Pacific (September 19th 1945) Japan I have rested quite a few bomber squadrons thus not many hits on Japanese manpower... -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Night Air attack on Maebashi , at 113,59 Weather in hex: Clear sky Raid spotted at 37 NM, estimated altitude 13,000 feet. Estimated time to target is 12 minutes Japanese aircraft J1N1-S Irving x 3 Allied aircraft IL-4T x 6 No Japanese losses Allied aircraft losses IL-4T: 2 damaged Manpower hits 1 Fires 754 The A-bomb damage at Tokyo must have been pretty big as you can see from the intel screen pic. That was worth +10 000 points. Also recon indicate that we have severely damaged cities at Osaka and Kobe. A lot of damaged HI etc... Philippines Allied troops wipe out defenders at Sangihe. The ground assault at Talaud Island however failed... Heavy bombers have been busy bombing Cebu, Legaspi, Puerto Princess, Cagayan, Taytay and Jolo. China I'am still organizing and waiting the supply levels to rise. There are still some small units blocking the supply routes from Burma. Burma / Thailand Pretty much the same. Organizing and getting ready to push forward. I will unleash heavy aircampaign in this region once everything is setup. In the meantime we are moving slowly forward and keep bombing his main stacks / airfields. Russia Japanese forces wipe out an tank unit near Kweisu. Those poor souls became isolated and paid the price. No major ground battles to report from previous turn but our troops will continue to push forward. Last turn we knocked few static defenses (which are quite stubborn). That means the roads are open for supplies and reinforcements. The intel amount is solid and he will have hard times ahead in this theatre.... [image]local://upfiles/15617/AF503B4DF4904FF6AF98BB325EF433BF.jpg[/image]

aztez -> RE: September 1945 (9/24/2012 4:43:02 PM)
Pacific (September 22nd 1945) Japan Few allied B29's entered theatre again. Today was the first day we tried an daytime bombing run againts the Japanese home islands. As expected the resistance was much stiffer so we definately need use this daytime opiton carefully. I don't want to waste bombers for nothing. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Night Air attack on Hiroshima/Kure , at 106,58 Weather in hex: Moderate rain Raid detected at 24 NM, estimated altitude 11,000 feet. Estimated time to target is 7 minutes Japanese aircraft E13A1 Jake x 3 Allied aircraft B-29-25 Superfort x 6 Japanese aircraft losses E13A1 Jake: 1 destroyed No Allied losses Manpower hits 2 Fires 1380 Aircraft Attacking: 6 x B-29-25 Superfort bombing from 9000 feet * City Attack: 10 x 500 lb GP Bomb -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Night Air attack on Hiroshima/Kure , at 106,58 Weather in hex: Moderate rain Raid detected at 48 NM, estimated altitude 10,000 feet. Estimated time to target is 15 minutes Japanese aircraft E13A1 Jake x 2 Allied aircraft B-29-25 Superfort x 6 No Japanese losses No Allied losses Manpower hits 1 Fires 2190 Aircraft Attacking: 6 x B-29-25 Superfort bombing from 9000 feet * City Attack: 10 x 500 lb GP Bomb -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Morning Air attack on Fukuoka , at 103,57 Weather in hex: Overcast Raid detected at 58 NM, estimated altitude 20,000 feet. Estimated time to target is 17 minutes Japanese aircraft J2M5 Jack x 22 Allied aircraft B-29B Superfort x 12 No Japanese losses Allied aircraft losses B-29B Superfort: 1 destroyed, 11 damaged Manpower hits 5 Fires 2920 Aircraft Attacking: 10 x B-29B Superfort bombing from 15000 feet * City Attack: 18 x 500 lb GP Bomb ...well that is decent enough. The amount of bombing runs will rise once we are ready. Philippines The allied reinforcements arrived at Leyte Gulf. We will begin constructing the bases at Baybay and Catbalogan. These bases will give two additional level airfields in the region which to support and conduct operations. It is pretty safe to say that Leyte Gulf area is important to defend when playing as japan! Otherwise it will have severe concequences as you will see soon enough. The recon flights indicate also large number of fighters (+300) and bombers (+150) based at Takao. Heavy volume shipping is also reported. China Nothing noteworthy to report... Russia The russian troops continue to open roads on their way towards inner Manchuko. Japanese forces that were routed at Mutankiang are now at Yenki. That totals 68 enemy present in that base. Near Tungho japanese troops move out in offensive. I don't know what he has here but if he moves out those troops will be circled soon. Thus not objecting him moving his troops out at all. In other areas the troops continue to move forward and we can expect large ground combats in forthcoming weeks... [image]local://upfiles/15617/2E2E359B626748E6AF318F17C7F087F9.jpg[/image]

�A couple of more turns have passed... nothing major to report but some intresting developments. Pacific (September 26th 1945) Japan Allied bombers continue to visit the japanese home islands... -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Night Air attack on Hachinohe , at 118,55 Weather in hex: Clear sky Raid spotted at 20 NM, estimated altitude 12,000 feet. Estimated time to target is 6 minutes Japanese aircraft J1N1-S Irving x 2 Allied aircraft Pe-2 x 4 No Japanese losses No Allied losses Manpower hits 4 Fires 555 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Night Air attack on Toyohara , at 124,46 Weather in hex: Heavy cloud Raid spotted at 37 NM, estimated altitude 15,000 feet. Estimated time to target is 12 minutes Japanese aircraft A6M5 Zero x 17 Allied aircraft SB-2 x 3 No Japanese losses No Allied losses Manpower hits 1 Fires 185 I'am resting bulk of my bombers at the moment. The offensive againts the japanese economy will intensify once I have few more airfields ready. Once that is done we start flying bombers in numbers... but happy to grind on at the moment. Philippines The first aviation support units and engineers arrive at Baybay. Another bunch are still enroute towards Catbalogan. There are still nearly 400 enemy fighters stationed at Takao along with 100 bombers. I'am expecting these to be deployed into frontlines soon by Dave. We also secured Vanimo in northern New Guinea. That was the last base he could have used for his recon aircraft. Few more bases to clear out still but this needs to be done now before we launch any major offensives. China Nothing to report. Burma The stalemate continues. Now the objective is to get few bases secured in northern Malaya peninsula. Allied HQ is still undecieded where the major push will ordered. Basically two choices either towards Singapore or Saigon. Russia Some good and some bad news. Overall though the offensive continues. Dave is using small parachute unit fragments to hinder my supply lines. Well.. not liking that one but at the moment I will let it be. The good news is that we stopped the enemy offensive near Kiamuze... that was made as expected. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Ground combat at 112,39 (near Kiamusze) Japanese Deliberate attack Attacking force 56862 troops, 548 guns, 59 vehicles, Assault Value = 1982 Defending force 35982 troops, 844 guns, 674 vehicles, Assault Value = 1303 Japanese adjusted assault: 616 Allied adjusted defense: 3905 Japanese assault odds: 1 to 6 Combat modifiers Defender: terrain(+) Attacker: Japanese ground losses: 6461 casualties reported Squads: 175 destroyed, 446 disabled Non Combat: 2 destroyed, 64 disabled Engineers: 16 destroyed, 56 disabled Guns lost 104 (14 destroyed, 90 disabled) Vehicles lost 4 (2 destroyed, 2 disabled) Allied ground losses: 478 casualties reported Squads: 9 destroyed, 53 disabled Non Combat: 1 destroyed, 32 disabled Engineers: 1 destroyed, 2 disabled Guns lost 51 (5 destroyed, 46 disabled) Vehicles lost 28 (2 destroyed, 26 disabled) Assaulting units: 28th Division 112th Division 57th Division 123rd Division 134th Division Defending units: 165th Tank Brigade 388th Rifle Division 255th Rifle Division 34th Rifle Division 171st Tank Brigade 1632nd AT Gun Regiment 1121st Cannon Regiment 145th Howitzer Regiment 46th/302nd AA Battalion 1637th Howitzer Regiment 424th Hvy Howitzer Regiment 183rd Mortar Regiment 15th Army 1648th AA Regiment 52nd Cannon Regiment 1633rd AT Gun Regiment 470th Mortar Regiment 147th/155th PVO AA Battalion 129th Engineer Battalion ... that is was not bad at all. I have plenty of reserves moving here so his offensive here will end up in turmoil. The japanese also launched an offensive near Kaigan... -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Ground combat at 95,35 (near Kalgan) Japanese Shock attack Attacking force 52607 troops, 338 guns, 156 vehicles, Assault Value = 1912 Defending force 12943 troops, 170 guns, 662 vehicles, Assault Value = 442 Japanese adjusted assault: 2170 Allied adjusted defense: 351 Japanese assault odds: 6 to 1 Combat modifiers Defender: terrain(+), disruption(-), experience(-), supply(-) Attacker: shock(+) Japanese ground losses: 3471 casualties reported Squads: 14 destroyed, 291 disabled Non Combat: 1 destroyed, 13 disabled Engineers: 0 destroyed, 20 disabled Vehicles lost 18 (1 destroyed, 17 disabled) Allied ground losses: 4232 casualties reported Squads: 141 destroyed, 119 disabled Non Combat: 91 destroyed, 123 disabled Engineers: 1 destroyed, 6 disabled Guns lost 85 (43 destroyed, 42 disabled) Vehicles lost 255 (126 destroyed, 129 disabled) Units retreated 3 Defeated Allied Units Retreating!

Already ordered troops to intervene againts the japanese troops. As said though.. overall the all out offensive continues as planned...

The last remnants of resistance has been wiped out. Burma Allied troops arrived at Khiri Khan and the japanese defending managed to hold the initial ground assaults... -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Ground combat at Prachuap Khiri Khan (54,64) Allied Deliberate attack Attacking force 20028 troops, 397 guns, 139 vehicles, Assault Value = 710 Defending force 6431 troops, 86 guns, 0 vehicles, Assault Value = 139 Allied engineers reduce fortifications to 2 Allied adjusted assault: 42 Japanese adjusted defense: 121 Allied assault odds: 1 to 2 (fort level 2) Combat modifiers Defender: terrain(+), preparation(-), experience(-) Attacker: supply(-) Japanese ground losses: 609 casualties reported Squads: 8 destroyed, 79 disabled Non Combat: 3 destroyed, 16 disabled Engineers: 0 destroyed, 1 disabled Guns lost 18 (4 destroyed, 14 disabled) Allied ground losses: 274 casualties reported Squads: 1 destroyed, 35 disabled Non Combat: 0 destroyed, 2 disabled Engineers: 0 destroyed, 4 disabled Assaulting units: 81st (West African) Division 26th Indian Division Defending units: 3rd INA Azad Regiment 4th INA Nehru Regiment 34th Ind.Mixed Bde /1 Yokosuka 1st SNLF 26th Ind.Mixed Rgt /1 26th Special Base Force 42nd JNAF AF Unit Russia No major ground battles has taken place. The japanese forces do continue their way up north and I have taken measures to push them back. Meanwhile the russian troops continue their advance and we should very soon see major ground battles raging. The russian airforce is not fairing that well againts the japanese. A bit odd but not unexpected. Also noticing some quite high fatigue levels on the pilots. Oh well the show continues and have bigger things to worry about...

I will move some units into northern Russia via railway just to wait for these troops. He must "walk" the road and luckily I do not. We had minor ground battles at Kiamusze and near Yenki. Nothing major though.

Pacific (October 20th 1945) China Nothing major happening. I'am flying in as much supplies as I can. I will launch an offensives here once the supply levels are adequate. Hopefully soon enough... Burma Allied troops will enter Nakhon Ranchasima in the plains of Thailand within two days. There is still 10 units present and want to clear that flank before committing anything else. We also have seized Prachuab Khiri Khan base in northen Malaya peninsula so the road towards south is becoming clearer. Russia Allied troops have now entered to the city of Yenki.

That is pretty obvious! Russian troops have now also secured Taonan near central Manchuko. Nice to base to have definately. Philippines / CenPac / Southern Pacific We are still fighting around southern Philippines. Need to secure few bases and bring in more supplies here. Japanese have launched few sizeable kamikaze strikes againts our shipping in the region. The damage has been moderate. All that sounds simple but sometimes simple is easier said than done. However we are making small progress here. There are still no sign of KB.. nor with the recon flights or allied signit reports. It seems those ships are in "stealth" mode and our radio operators listen music instead radio traffic. Japan We have kept bombing the islands by night. That is the safest way to do it at the moment. Allied 5th A-bomb will be dropped into Tokyo next turn unless weather prevents that mission. [image]local://upfiles/15617/0CD0299DAF3E4DA5BDC0D8AF4B8569DB.jpg[/image]

Five atom bombs. Ouch!!! (I finally got AE & wanted to quick say "Hi!" [:)])

JocMeister -> RE: October 1945 (11/18/2012 8:21:33 AM)
What does your aircraft pools look like?

aztez -> RE: October 1945 (11/18/2012 7:36:58 PM)
ctangus: Good to see you back on the forums! AE is diffrent than the classic we clashed but no doubt you will be succesfull in this release also. I do hope everything is ok! Pretty much the same old here.. waiting for the summer already and the winter has not even begun yet! [:D] JocMeister: Good question. Here is the lists. The fighter part is more than ok and really have a lot of assets that I'am unable to put forward due to my poor choices and bad planning. Lets just say that you really should pay more attention to this area of the game.. than again I want to finish this in my lifetime so it got a bit overlooked somewhere down the road. The normal bomber pools are not as stacked. This is a bit misleading though since have a lot of squadrons full and these don't show up the in the pools. The same old can be said here too. Have a lot assets but the problem remains the same as with fighters. Working on that issue but it is always more complicated than it sounds. Torpedo/Divebombers.. have a lot of them. More than enough only thing that these planes need targets! [:D] ...and have pretty no clue where the juicy ones are hiding. Thus if some of the japanese fanboys say that allied intel is overpowered... well trust me these intelligence officers are not worth more than headless chickens. Overall the airwar has been quite bloody.. and as you guys know we are out of pilots mostly. Not an big issue at least not yet since the squadrons are full mostly. The screens you asked are below...

JocMeister -> RE: October 1945 (11/18/2012 8:57:17 PM)
Wow! Looks like you are in really good shape! [:)] When you say bad planning on the fighter side what do you mean? Lack of trained fighter pilots? Out of curiosity. Have you ever after say, past 43 felt you suffered from any kind of shortage in terms of aircraft? And have you noticed any hint that your opponent are suffering from any kind of shortage? EDIT: Oh and thank you for putting up the screens! Really interesting to see! [:)]

I'm trying to catch up on it too, but 65 pages! I've made it through page 1 & 2 so far. [:D]

aztez -> RE: October 1945 (11/18/2012 9:18:50 PM)
JocMeister: No problems at all. It is always hard to know what stuff people want to see from the game. I meant that "bad planning" was that I haven't seized enough bases with large airfield potential to this date so I could utilize the firepower. Also "bad planning" being that many of the supporting units are not where I want them to be at this point of time. Thus lacking the airfields plus support. There are no fast fixes to those issues. I would highly recommend that you make this one of your top priorities once you start enter later times. I'am in good shape and this airwar has been much more bloody than the one I have ongoing vs katsuragi. I think the losses are -50% in that one.. and actually have lost about 20k aircraft in that one and he has around 18k. As for shortages. There were few times when the pools were a bit "dry".. nothing major though since eventhough losses I have taken.. well I have inflicted more than equal in this one. The training part has not been an problem for me. I have more than enough high skilled pilots in the fronts are many just sitting behind the lines drinking and enjoying the sunny side of the pacific. Thus training I have done good in this one from day 1. I think the worst part for any allied player is 1942 and it becomes better. I would not even advice holding back than either since every plane you shoot down is one less you have to worry about later on. As for Dave's pools and pilots. To be honest I think he is doing ok. He has launched few very large scale strikes near Philippines lately and it seems he has plenty left in the home islands as well. I haven't taken his oil though, not cut DEI nor heavily bombed his stacks on the home islands. After the very bloody skies at Burma haven't spotted much flying there from Japanese side so that would make me think that in the end it became too costly for him to get involved longrun.

I was wondering that once went AWOL for some months. Oh.. don't ask what I did one those pages!!! To be honest I have no clues at all but I can guarantee that you will learn few mistakes I made and maybe some good thing I did. I will read this thing from the beginning once we are actually at the "The end" date. That will take few months to achieve though. Lately been a bit busy RL but trying to keep this updated to the bitter end. Actually pretty intrested what Dave has to say to all of this once he will read this through! Again cannot say enough good things about him since most likely this would have been down into toilet with many other opponents. Whether we actually start 3rd match up.. well who knows and too early to say.

crsutton -> RE: October 1945 (11/19/2012 5:47:12 AM)
Just got caught up. Did not realize that you were still posting. It must be fun to run amok with the Soviets. I can wait for mine to get release. Viberpol and I are just about to enter 1945. I am doing well but he is a tough opponent. I "have" cut off his DEI oil but am having a hard time getting in range of the homeland with my bombers. Biggest success has been in CBI where I hold Bangkok and am trying to cut the SE Asia landmass in half. In the PI I am just starting to take some based to build up my air power for the attack. He still have a very strong air force and navy but I am hoping that his lack of oil will soon be felt.
