Operation Beat-Down at Clark Field is proceeding exceedingly slowly.

And I finally captured Singkawang. Finally. Now to install some Nells there with an HQ for torps and some AF guys.

Okie Dokie.....It's Saturday 07:10 and I've processed Jim's latest moves and so here's the report for 10Jan42:

Ambon's defenders fire at my invaders:

larryfulkerson -> RE: 09Jan42 Moo v. Fulkerson (7/21/2012 4:18:56 PM)

An air strike hits Clark Field and again no Allied damage is reported.

larryfulkerson -> RE: 09Jan42 Moo v. Fulkerson (7/21/2012 4:22:24 PM)

I'm surprised by the number of P-40's at Port Moresby in an unescorted raid and sustain some losses.

larryfulkerson -> RE: 09Jan42 Moo v. Fulkerson (7/21/2012 4:27:34 PM)

A couple of my Lilly's were damaged in a raid on Lautem which didn't seem to do much.

One Zero seems to be enough to prevent the Dutch from sinking my ship in an airstrike near Billiton

larryfulkerson -> RE: 09Jan42 Moo v. Fulkerson (7/21/2012 4:35:14 PM)

Two Zero's seemd to deter a British airstrike on Kushing.

There's a small subsurface contest near Sydney:

The Japs finally capture Iloilo:

larryfulkerson -> RE: 09Jan42 Moo v. Fulkerson (7/21/2012 4:42:03 PM)

Not much happened on the ground at Clark Field. I just GOTTA move some more troops in there.

larryfulkerson -> RE: 09Jan42 Moo v. Fulkerson (7/22/2012 2:26:58 AM)

I'm going through my moves just now and I noticed the button on the ship display for changing the HQ of the ships in the TF. I've been rushing past doing my moves to where the TF needs to go and forgetting all about the advantages of having the correct HQ for the TF. I guess I'm saying: here's fair warning that I'm going to pay more attention to that little button from now on. I'm just saying.........

EDIT: I'm also saying I'm going to be more careful where I'm putting the HQ units themselves. I've been more or less been hit or miss in where an HQ unit goes but I'm going to find them all and position them better. Not a threat........I'm just saying.........

larryfulkerson -> RE: 09Jan42 Moo v. Fulkerson (7/22/2012 2:44:56 AM)

lemme see the picture before I try to explain this thing.

EDIT: Okie dokie....now that tlhe 39th Road Const Co has arrived at Samarinda I can move TF 174 to Samarinda to pick up the 146th Inf Rgmt and move it to points SW. Closer to Palembang. Hopefully somewhere that has a port and an airfield. I may have to look into the need to move ENGR's to the new spot. Think ahead, I keep forgetting to do that.

larryfulkerson -> RE: 09Jan42 Moo v. Fulkerson (7/22/2012 3:12:32 AM)

I found the 3rd Fleet HQ unit at Namlea ( or spelled diffferently Namlae sometimes ) and I'm moving an AA unit there to help protect the planes and the HQ unit. I'm debating whether or not to move some land combat troops there too. Lemme think about it some more.

larryfulkerson -> RE: 09Jan42 Moo v. Fulkerson (7/22/2012 5:02:17 AM)

Here's TF 248 and TF 297 which are ordered into the Palembang hex as of tomorrow morning in the wee am hours of the day so as to do some invasive landings and some protective bombardment. And there may be some mines in that hex so I'm taking a chance that some ship, 1 or more, may hit a mine. D'oh. Those DMS ships I had in the hex had only three days to process that hex and I'm not sure they found and dispatched every mine yet. So we'll see what happens.

moore4807 -> RE: 09Jan42 Moo v. Fulkerson (7/22/2012 12:31:33 PM)

I just noticed this in Larry's report. Does anyone have an explanation, or where to find this out?

koniu -> RE: 09Jan42 Moo v. Fulkerson (7/22/2012 1:35:03 PM)

Min bombard is what close ship can go to shore during bombard.
When zero there is no limit. 1 mean 1000 yards. 2 mean 2000.

You should use it when you want to save ammo from short range AA guns (setting range bigger than those guns have) or enemy have heavy coastal defense and you what to avoid being hit.

Bigger range mean your ships are safer but also bombardment effect is smaller.

There is also another option below picture. "no escort bombard"
That mean than CL or bigger ships will only bombard and DD and smaller not. DD have no armor and CD guns can sunk them easy
If you change it, all ships will bombard.



larryfulkerson -> RE: 09Jan42 Moo v. Fulkerson (7/22/2012 2:02:46 PM)

Yeah, what he said. I always use 16, meaning 16,000 yards as the min closing range to shore. That way even the DD's can fire a gun or two in bombardment.



larryfulkerson -> RE: 09Jan42 Moo v. Fulkerson (7/22/2012 11:21:29 PM)

Okie dokie.......It's Sunday 15:19 and I've received Jim's moves and this is the combat results from 11Jan42:

One DD hit a mine at Palembang and I don't have any more information about the ship, sorry. Other than that
the bombardment went off as scheduled and I got a lot of hits on aircraft parked there. I'm hoping none of the
oil refineries are damaged. I guess I should have thought about that before I scheduled the bombardment.

larryfulkerson -> RE: 09Jan42 Moo v. Fulkerson (7/22/2012 11:24:40 PM)

I got a hit on a Tanker just outside of the port at SFO.

larryfulkerson -> RE: 09Jan42 Moo v. Fulkerson (7/22/2012 11:28:03 PM)

Another expensive raid on Singapore. I sure hope these raids are worth it. I'm losing a lot of planes. I'm hoping that the Allies aren't able to build up their forts any higher than they already are.

larryfulkerson -> RE: 09Jan42 Moo v. Fulkerson (7/22/2012 11:31:29 PM)

Operation Beat-Down at Clark Field is proceeding slowly. I'm not sure what kind of damage is being done by these raids.....not much I'm guessing. But it's better than loosing people to ground attacks.

larryfulkerson -> RE: 09Jan42 Moo v. Fulkerson (7/22/2012 11:34:11 PM)

Jim is already testing my defenses at Singkawang. My Zero's are CAP-ing just fine though.

[image]local://upfiles/16287/2E339415FF8A4B5983B3246FED73113B.gif[/image]



larryfulkerson -> RE: 09Jan42 Moo v. Fulkerson (7/22/2012 11:37:07 PM)

More proof that my Zero's are CAP-ing just fine is this attack halfway between Singers and Paley.

larryfulkerson -> RE: 09Jan42 Moo v. Fulkerson (7/22/2012 11:39:36 PM)

My lack of Air Support for the fighters is showing it's ugly head again. Yet again the bombers raid Port Moresby unescorted and get shot up. I may have to stand them down for a bit.

larryfulkerson -> RE: 09Jan42 Moo v. Fulkerson (7/22/2012 11:42:40 PM)

I did an airstrike on Lautem and it didn't seem to accomplish much of anything.

larryfulkerson -> RE: 09Jan42 Moo v. Fulkerson (7/22/2012 11:47:15 PM)

I finally captured Ambon. That was a hard fight and took several shipments of troops. I gotta remember to overdo the first load so as to avoid the second and third trips into gunfire range.
