obvert -> RE: New Objectives (11/3/2012 5:33:49 PM)
I noticed you heavily bombarded Medan. Not sure if you're worried about destroying the very industry you're trying to take, but that can really nail the oil/refineries which then take time and resources to build up again. Although you 'only' hit each twice, the fires can really take out a lot more. Can be tough in spring 42 when you're trying a second tier objective and most of your supply is rebuilding facilities.

Empire101 -> Fire Damage (11/3/2012 7:14:42 PM)
Good point sir!! Now you come to mention it, a heavy bombardment like that could be counter-productive. I have never paid much attention to fire damage in the past, so I will monitor this closely. I was assuming that Medan would be stuffed full of engineers to demo the base once I'd ejected them, so a bombardment to soften them up would not make much difference. Thanks for the heads up!![:)]

1st & 11th Armies Situation Report: 21 February 1942. **************************START Message************************ Army General Staff ( Tokyo ) are pleased with the rapid demise of Chengchow, and now expect Loyang to go the same way. No supply is getting into the pocket, and the city of Loyang is under daily aerial assault. China Expeditionary HQ expect the city to fall quickly. 1st and 11th Armies are now to advance on Loyang and bring the siege to a satisfactory conclusion. After Loyang is secured, 1st Army & 11th will cease joint operations for the forseeable future; 1st Army will proceed northwards to capture Yenan. ( denoted by Yellow Arrow ). 11th Army is to take Nanying and then invest Sian. The oilfields are an important industrial target, to be secured quickly at all costs.

15th Army Situation Report: 21 February 1942. **************************START Message************************ AGS is displeased** with the stalled progress vis Rangoon. 6th Guards Division has been entrained and should arrive as reinforcements at the Rangoon battlefront within two weeks. Rangoons defenders are to be stopped from making ANY breakout or escape attempts. Recon patrols over Port Blair are showing 16/18,000 troops present, and all attempts for the Allies to increase the size of the airfield are being denied by daily bomb runs. JAAF fighter losses have been moderate, while Allied are close to heavy. No attempt will be made to capture Port Blair until Rangoon is secured. The evaluation of 15th Army is that with the large numbers of Allied troops on the island, it is a deathtrap waiting to be sprung. Resupply for the Allies is next to impossible, and several allied ships have already been sunk by 21st Air Flotilla. [image]local://upfiles/29250/66A8E99EDB4F425DBF899534513EED29.jpg[/image]
