bigred -> RE: 44-8-28 (9/5/2013 3:55:30 AM)

I counted 10 enemy AA units at truk...they seem to work against both ships, armor and planes...



bigred -> RE: 44-9-2 (9/10/2013 3:26:40 AM)

FatR brought the KB into action at Biak. My Amphib TF w/CVs was north of Hollandia and spotted by the Japs last turn. My CVs then moved to Truk to support the Truk attack While FatR moved south. FatR LBA attacked my ships in hex at Sarmi. They probably expected to hit a hi value target but got some AKs Covered w/CAP..

In the land war I captured Mergui and Truk.

JocMeister -> RE: Mother of all Naval Air Battles (10/1/2013 5:45:56 PM)

Some big air battles there!

Some big air battles there!

How are you pools holding up?

all USAAF pools are empty and all USAAF sqns operating at 70% frames...all others are ok.



JocMeister -> RE: Mother of all Naval Air Battles (10/2/2013 2:22:32 PM)

And still september. Ouch. Thats sucks. [:(]

Two more months before the P51D kicks in. That will help a little. I have found the USAAF pools to be constantly in various states of critical. I hope 3/45 will bring some relief when the P47N kicks in with 100 per month. After that nothing happens with the pools until 9/45 when the P51 bumps up to 250 with the H model.

Playing the allies in AE sucks sometimes. Good thing we get lots of CVs! [:D]



bigred -> RE: 9-9-44 (10/5/2013 3:25:12 PM)

Well, I missed an opportunity...If I had only done a port strike on the previous turn...Last turn this US CVTF sank about 4 tankers inbound to Babeldoab...hmmmmmmm..and my b29s have been night port striking hex for 4 days.. IJN CVs are still sitting in hex after this posting....hmmm, I wonder if his KB is out of fuel in Babeldoab?

bigred -> RE: 9-9-44 (10/5/2013 3:37:38 PM)

Allies had maybe 15 night attacks w/ no reported hits. My experience is night intel is very weak. Could have had some hits but no reports of hits. Did a recon near Biak and need to save results as a post for future ops.

bigred -> RE: Mother of all Naval Air Battles (10/5/2013 3:55:09 PM)

From 9-7... I knew the KB was in port at Babs from this night bombing attack 3 days previous. I was afraid to engage in daylight because of reinforcing LBA ftrs and loss of surprise.

JocMeister -> RE: Mother of all Naval Air Battles (10/5/2013 4:03:39 PM)

My opponent has done thousands of night attacks. He has yet to hit a single ship. So I wouldn´t put much faith in any hits being scored.

EDIT: ship not **** [:D]



bigred -> RE: Namesake (10/12/2013 10:19:20 PM)

Earlier in this game I named a Fletcher DD FatR.

Again I named some more ships coming on line. Hopefully Stanislav will avoid sinking his namesake.

bigred -> RE: Alor Star (11/2/2013 3:20:54 PM)

Allies have landed a corp at Alor Star and captured the base on the first day. It was undefended.

bigred -> RE: Alor Star (11/3/2013 4:19:17 AM)

and then the ground attacks. FatR is trying to blow me out at Parchup So he can rail between Singers and BK. Currently the rail is cut at 3 locations. Soon to be 5 locations. I expect Parchup to fall next turn. Alor Star was unoccupied so revertedto allied control w/ no need of attack next turn. On the approach to Alor the fleet stayed inside of a heavy weather front until one day away from target.

bigred -> RE: Alor Star (11/3/2013 4:37:44 AM)

Because FatR got a 1-1 attack at Prachuap he attacked on turn 2. One Brigade of the 1st marine division(w/80exp) is bolstering the
defense but not sure I will hold next turn.

bigred -> RE: Alor Star (11/5/2013 1:38:52 PM)

Looks like FatR was unable to sink my CVEs. I Broke the transports up into about 100 small TFs around Alor Star. FatR had a chance to engage my Indian ocean Amphib fleet w/ Tone task group but I slipped away.

to me
FFFFFFFFFFFF.....

I'm rather mad at the treatment given me by the gaming engine this turn. But I guess it was my turn to be unlucky, will have to play with cards I've been dealt.

1:03 PM (43 minutes ago)
I had at least 4 airgroups in place from the previous turn (few flew even then)... Just 2 took off on this one. None of bombers on ground attacks flew too.

Well, at least, your carrier air raids ended up in quite a mess as well. But I would have accepted pounding of my surface combatants for a chance of my air armada actually taking off on Day 1. As it stands, I've did much more damage to your fleet than I took, which is good for September 1944, I guess, but almost all of it against nonessential assets.

Regards, Stanislav.

JocMeister -> RE: Alor Star (11/5/2013 1:48:26 PM)

Sounds like you will have a good time watching the replay! [:D]



bigred -> RE: Alor Star (11/6/2013 12:31:57 AM)

1. First night...The Tone TF has redeployed from shelling Pracheup up near Bangkock. The loss of IJN gun support at Pracheap will become a determining factor in allies holding the malay rail line.

The night battle is expected.

bigred -> RE: Alor Star (11/6/2013 1:01:39 AM)

The night fight turns to early morning surface battles before the air strikes.

bigred -> RE: Alor Star (11/6/2013 1:14:55 AM)

Alot of clutter where neither side can get a kill on the surface. But the bettys wound my big french ship.
