No problem, just ask away if you have more questions. One other thing that castor did that was effective was to keep the CVs in front of the invasion TFs. Too many players don't do that which is equivalent to a nice present for the IJN. Exploiting the KB's 1 hex range advantage for all it is worth would be my advice to the japanese players. Shattered airgroups can be rebuilt (I replaced my carrier pilots 5 or 6 times over in the course of this war with negligible effects on quality), sunk carriers can't. And IJN flattops can be brittle. Akagi was heavily damaged in early '44 near Manila with 2x 500 lbs hits and nearly sank as a result (disbanded into Manila with 90 sys and 70 fires). The CV made Yokohama in October (!) and would have still needed most of '45 to be repaired.

quote: ORIGINAL: crsutton Ranier, Would you put aside the usual combat reports and write a paragraph or three on your overall status and outlook for your side as 1945 begins? How is your economy, your stockpiles, what do your pools look like, what ships are you building, Do you feel like you are where you should be by now. What are your major mistakes over the campaign and what do you feel CT did right and wrong? What did you do right and wrong? Is the game balanced fairly? What are your major beefs about balance as the Japanese player? (No, we don't want to hear about Allied 4E bombers again [:D]) CT did a good job filling us in about the Allied side. Now it would be nice to hear your take on it. Thanks. quote: ORIGINAL: Rainer79 No problem, just ask away if you have more questions. One other thing that castor did that was effective was to keep the CVs in front of the invasion TFs. Too many players don't do that which is equivalent to a nice present for the IJN. Exploiting the KB's 1 hex range advantage for all it is worth would be my advice to the japanese players. Shattered airgroups can be rebuilt (I replaced my carrier pilots 5 or 6 times over in the course of this war with negligible effects on quality), sunk carriers can't. And IJN flattops can be brittle. Akagi was heavily damaged in early '44 near Manila with 2x 500 lbs hits and nearly sank as a result (disbanded into Manila with 90 sys and 70 fires). The CV made Yokohama in October (!) and would have still needed most of '45 to be repaired. Please... don't tell him! he'll use it against your fellow JFB (me)... [:D] I'd rather he learnt all the hard way! [;)]

Shame this aar ended, although I enjoy seeing the IJ side. You and Christian identified a lot of issues/problems with the game. At least most were looked at, some even corrected. AE is a better game because of it. Thanks again to both of you for the game and the aar.

Rainer79 -> RE: Now taken over by IGHQ... (7/12/2011 8:43:05 AM)
Thanks. I hope that Christian will come back again in the future as he really is a good player and a nice guy (even if a bit choleric [;)]). One thing I should probably mention is that at the moment the sub war has mostly stopped for both sides. The US subs don't want to enter the areas where I can mass the late-war E types while most of the IJN subs have been pulled pack to get their radar and kaiten upgrades.

AFTER ACTION REPORTS FOR Nov 05, 44 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Night Air attack on San Fernando , at 80,74 Weather in hex: Moderate rain Japanese aircraft D4Y1 Judy x 7 No Japanese losses As Chris had restarted his night campaign I ordered a few small attacks of my own. San Fernando was chosen as their were a couple of ships (PT-boats?) disbanded in port. In reality unrestricted night bombing is an area where Japan can only lose for a simple reason. The 4Es will fly regardless of CAP but the japanese 2Es are sensitive about that. They won't get suffer many outright losses but even a few planes on CAP will by their very existence start the dreaded unescorted bombers withdraw messages. Too bad that you can escort nightly raids... Aircraft Attacking: 7 x D4Y1 Judy releasing from 10000' Port Attack: 1 x 500 kg GP Bomb Raid spotted at 10 NM, estimated altitude 13,000 feet.

Here they come. Otherwise a fairly boring turn. All good airfields in the vicinity are trashed and I won't throw away several hundred planes for no gain against the Death Star CAP. I estimate I need to mass roughly 2-3 thousand planes at once to have a shot at doing some meaningful damage. For comparison I have ~8 000 planes of all types deployed on the map at the moment... Realistically that means that the home islands are the only area where the Death Star cannot roam at will. The only other option is to force a surface engagement but that has its own risks.

Rainer79 -> RE: Now taken over by IGHQ... (7/23/2011 9:01:02 AM)
And another round of completely ineffectual bombardments at Kagi. Before the end Christian thought that he had figured out the probably solution: if there are no planes at the base, the runway will simply not get targeted (or better said only very rarely). So if you can spot the bombardment coming in, you can evacuate the base for a day and damage will be minimal. At the same time this means that closing an airfield via bombardment will become an exercise in frustration.

One thing I don't think I have mentioned before that might be of interest is that from March '44 till January '45 I burned through 2 million tons of supply (i.e. the stockpile went from 5.5 million to ~3.5 million) despite turning LI back on. These level 9 forts sure are expensive.
