Elsewhere however the japanese continue thier policies of agression. Kendari is invaded and the dutch airforce actaully managed to hit something for a change. In all 4 hits were reproted on 3 differant vessels. at least one was accurate as the burning hulk was reattacked the following day.

Very pleased with these losses on the japanese side. thier failed attack last turn must have disabled a lot of squads allowing the counter attack to do some long term damage.
Having booted the japanese out from Tsingtao once before I was very wary of ordering in a blind assault when another unit poked its head in yesterday. However as it might have had follow on forces the allied commander on the ground took control and ordered in a shock attack. the results were really good for the chinese and not so good for the invaders.

This has isolated a lone japanese unit just west of loyang <sp> ? but as its all open terrain the risk of being counterpunched while trying to make the most of the envelopment probably isnt worth it.
PS .. tip for any allied players in china, Dont try and take cities on the south coast! while the suprise of almost taking it may have been fun, the overwhelming and now punishing japanese air response has meant that this little adventure was not worth the effort imo. And trying to get away is no easy matter sadly. There has been an upside but due to the fact this so-called freedom of the press has allowed us to be 100% sure that this correspondence is compromised [;)].
