Haha, I hate when that happens. Always the exciting turns when you know you won´t get the replay back for a couple of hours. [:D]

I often read the CR from the phone in the middle of the night!




koniu -> RE: Docup (A) vs Koniu (J) (12/4/2013 2:36:21 PM)

I mad, mad, mad

Everything go as planes all units where in position. Sweeps clear sky from enemy planes(short story from over 130 planes i reduce CAP to 10 planes when bombers arrive at AM phase).
Enemy cruisers and battleships given almost for free to sunk and what.

Only 40 KB planes launch to attack. KB have clear sky above , but enemy ships hide under overcast.

140 planes and 70 pilots lost (all LBA). Allies lost ~60 planes.
We manage to sunk ~15 enemy xAP and xAK and we hit BB Missisipi with two TT


Docup dot even know how lucky he was today.
Good part is that KB is intact i lost 12 planes from flak and during search phase

I mad, mad, mad

Sucks. Been there. Just have to keep at it.

Looks like he's not daunted even after the drubbings you've doled out lately, and another 15 ships certainly won't help his cause. You're ahead on VPs for the day even with the airframes lost I'm sure.

Maybe a sub or two can get to the Ole Miss and make it a better than average day tomorrow.

Back to game

In Burma Docup again deliberate West of Prome. We hold but AV is down to 200.

In DEI I see enemy CVE TF moving toward Cocos island. I am 50/50 sure that i remember to stop bombers for next turn[8|] if not i will se sucesfoul CAP trap there.

Last CVL arrive today in Tokio. I am waiting only for last CVE in next month.


In Rabaul. Air wings look good. Only one A6M5 Sentai need resting as they lost 60% of planes and pilots. One of N1K2 Sentais(that one that sweep first lost 15 planes and 10 pilots but morale is high as they shot down 25 enemy planes. Rabaul have 400 plane CAP for tomorrow and bombers will rest. KB is returninug to shadows.

I lost during that day 140 planes (100 A2A).
10 A6M2
42 A6M5
20 N1K2
2 Ki-84r

20 Nov 43

Burma
Docup push me back to Prome from hex Wast of Prome. Lucky units are disorganized but not lost many squads. Some rest and they will fight again. Lashio fall today to allied hands. I am retreating troops to defense line closer to Taung Gyi.

I need to plan defense line in hexes between Rangoon and Prome.

5 fresh Inf Divisions.
1 rest requiring Inf Division.
1 fresh Tank Division
1 rest requiring Tank Division

In 10 days another ID will land in Rangoon and week later another ID will reinforce south Burma.
When i figure how i can use those troops optimal i will tell You all.
Now time to poker night and tomorrow i have family ceremony so in Monday with fresh mind i will start planing.

I i will not be able to have decent defense on all jungle hexes between Rangoon and Prome there is option to abandon Prome but i hate to give Docup place when he can march to my positions without river crossing.








koniu -> RE: Docup (A) vs Koniu (J) (12/19/2013 5:30:12 AM)

Sorry for lack of updates. From over week i try to find time to update AAR
I try to do that today or tomorrow with all fireworks. Maps, economy, etc

We are currently in 31 Nov 43. We slowly playing at 1turn/1day ratio.
Docup seriously start moving in Burma, also some activity start in DEI,
Salomon's as usual are hot.

I suggest to go to Docup`s AAR. It looks that he is updating in daily basis.

koniu -> RE: Docup (A) vs Koniu (J) (12/22/2013 7:50:32 AM)

I just did stupid thing.
I was updating my AAR and because mine and Docup Threats where so close each other i accidentally post report on his threat and without reading it and post rapport about Burma in his AAR [8|].
I dont notice that until i refresh main AAR forum. I need to explain to Docup.

EDIT.
I suspecting that i enter his aar when i was checking his last posts, when i trying to enter his profile on forum. (in profile You see his last 10 post. I usual checking his post outside AAR to check for info he can slip by accident about our game.

Damn.

Salomon's
Only Major base in are is Rabaul
Everything south of New Britain i abandon. I keep there only small garrisons to prevent free landings. I hope Docup instead of moving north will chose clearing those island from Japanese forces.
Any attempt to move north of New Britain will end wit proper and deadly response from Japanese forces.

I nwewr plann to fight heavy for Salomons. This area was only for delaying allied moves and give me time to proper preperations of defense in north and central Papua

Ki-84a Frank - disappointment?????

So far i found "a" frank as disappointment. Ok it is better from Tojo but when i compare it with N1K2 , much slower George behaving much better in attack and in defense.

In defense George much often managing to avoid enemy attack. While Frank is shot down.
In attack George guns when hit enemy they destroy it while Frank usually only damage enemy plane.

Two days ago i send 90 Georges and over 150 Franks to weep Ramrre island.
Georges shot down ~40 enemy planes losing only 3. While frank shot down ~20 enemy planes losing 30 in process. Pilots whee in both planes equal 70XP ones. Also Georges where flying firs waves engaging much stronger not tired CAP. I hope "r" version will be better. Sill month before "r" will be available.

George is a very good plane and those 4x20mm are a really strong armament that makes a difference to me in all of my games. However, it is IJN and you just don't have that many IJN fighter groups. The Frank is comparable flying, but lacks the firepower.

I am a bit surprised about the losses. I can only think of three things.
1. George has better range. Was the Frank flying at extended range and the Geroge normal?
2. The Franks (for whatever reason) started with higher fatigue (pilot and/or plane)
3. Just bad luck on the Frank rolls

The reason I like the Frank "b" model so much is the armament.4x20mm like George, BUT 2x20mm are CL. Really a hard hitting plane and the best armed plane in the IJ inventory IMHO.

1. They where flying from Prome, Ranggon and Tanguoo so normal range to all groups.
2. All group where 99 morale with fatigue below 5. I even manually send some fatigued pilots back to pool and give two days of rest to those groups before attack.
3. It could be that or in that battle Spitfire VIII presence. When Georges arrive Spitfires where out of position for most time of game.

But I am talking here about overall performance i experienced during last 3 months. George is fighting better.

I hope Ki-84r will be better in both defense and attack. Arrival date for that version is 6 January 43.
Ki-84b is also researched but it will be build in limited number and not sooner that autumn `44. and with some luck there is chance that Ki-83 will be available by then







PaxMondo -> RE: Docup (A) vs Koniu (J) (12/22/2013 11:21:42 AM)

Frank "a" and "r" are very similar. I rarely see much difference ... random rolls seem to be much bigger than the difference between them

Yes, George is a good plane, but unfortunately you can't get an IJA version. [;)]

Ki-83 is a good plane, just remember that it is 2E, not 1E. Roughly equivalent to the Frank "b" model in armament. I have found it to be good in both escort (with Peggy, not Helen) and sweep roles.

Do You mind Peggy(T) version. I will have it in February. In late Summer i will be able to use it first time in attack.

As son as Peggy arrive i will switch most of my 2E groups to them.
Ground attack are almost useless right now. I will only left few units as ASW platforms ant that will be all.

I now see how unexperienced player i was in beginning of game and now i stuck with over 800 ground trained pilots. Lucky many of them have enough low XP to be able to train fast in low naval or TT attack and be useed with Peggy or as kamikaze




PaxMondo -> RE: Docup (A) vs Koniu (J) (12/22/2013 3:14:36 PM)

You will need the ground attack pilots at least once more, if not twice. You will use them when you need/can counter attack an amphib landing. If you haven't read PzB's AAR recently, go back and reread it. He was a master at countering amphib assaults. Preparatory for those is always a lot of ground bombing to create disablements. You might also take a look at Nemo's AAR's on Downfall/Armegeddon. He successfully re-took Okinawa, a critical location to keep control of.

Peggy+Ki-83 allow you to support Luzon from Formosa and Mindinao from Luzon. Helen range is just a bit too short and their cruise speed doesn't match up well with either Frank nor the Ki-83. BTW, you will like the extra couple of hex range the Frank "b" model has.

Peggy "T" model ... Me? I have lousy luck with 2E bombers on Naval strike against anything with CAP. They rarely fly, if they do, they abort often, if they attack, they never hit. Just me. So 2E bombers for me are ground attack only. Nell (G3M3: 21 hex range at night, I never build Frances because all of my IJN groups are Nell night bombers. I do send Nells on NIGHT Naval Attack ... sometimes they even hit something.

Grace/Jill is a whole different story. I have great luck with them ... they rarely abort. Anything within 10 hexes ... I love'm. [:D]

Interesting. I've found the Frank 'r' to be MUCH better than the 'a.' Just that little bit of extra speed helps a lot, and the better high altitude maneuver. I've used both with comparable pilots and found the 'r' doing much better agains the same competition.

The George has been good but seems to drop off in mid-44. The Frank 'r' has been the only plane until the Ki-83 that can handle Spit VIII and do some damage against P-47s and Corsairs. It's been much easier to asses after we changed to the 32k altitude limit. In 45 the George is an escort, as is the Frank 'a' while the Frank 'r' can still compete. The Jack J2M5 also still does well defensively, and the Sam is okay too. The only plane that can get close to even in an offensive mission is the Ki-83.

As You all know we playing with second best maneuverability band rule.
So Frank "r" will be major step forward as it will be only plane that allow me to sweep above 31k before Ki-83

My plans for planes are
-From January `44 i will have in use mix of N1K2, Ki-84r and Ki-44IIc for his SR1
-June 44` i will replace some N1K2 with J2M5 to bust CAP capabilities
-From autumn `44 i will have some Ki-84b as bomber killer plane.
-Very late `44 or early `45 Ki-83 and A7M2 will start arriving.
-Spring/summer `45 arrival of J7W1
-No jet fighters.

All planes i mention will be in use until end of war. Pools are going to be shallow so any plane in air will be priceless.

4-5 Dec 1943

Burma
Quiet. Docup send bombers to reckon my troops north of Tanguoo.
On 5th i detected enemy TF (4 ships) 1 hex south of Rangoon. Probably DD TF. Docup like sinking by LBs in area. I have 50 bombers on naval none of them fly. I had BB TF close but he need refuel and rearm and will return in few days.

Lot of air ASW action in area. Docup have concentrate lot of subs around Rangoon. I think 10-15 maybe. I have 150 bombers flying ASW misions all with 50-60XP, 70+ skill pilots. Tracker is showing 5 subs sunk, probably many damaged. Multiple sinking sounds heard.


Coral Sea
Docup start seriously hunting my subs. From weeks one of mi I-boat was patrolling area between Papua and Oz. Last turn finally sub was intercepted and sunk by DDs.
It was real hunt. 5 or six ASW TFs, Naval search from OZ, plus support from one or Two CVE TFs. I must say well done job.

Salomon's
Mostly quiet. Docup unload some supplies in Madang. I fall to intercept him.

R&D
Ki-84r advance to 5/44

Art Work, Christmas
I will pimp my game with art work. We have short brak on game for Christmas


North Pacific.
One of my subs detect Santa Claus near Biak. I am sending entire KB to intercept it.
This year it will be no Christmas, all presents are mine.
