Lokasenna -> RE: Is it time to panic? (9/30/2014 10:02:07 PM)
quote: ORIGINAL: Bullwinkle58 quote: ORIGINAL: JocMeister quote: ORIGINAL: Lokasenna I really don't think this is the case. Note that in my game, VPs never hit 3:1 during 1942, despite my loss of China. True, I didn't lose all of the troops, but the major difference is in my VP total - not the IJ VP total. You need to fight back. Even if you trade at 1.5 or 2 to 1 in his favor, it's a short term win for you. You just need to survive to the point where you're able to invade somewhere and bag lots of VPs in one go. Yeah, but your VP is unusually high I think. At least so compared to my games. In my game vs Joseph where I had Noumea I ended up just over 8200 VPs in December 42. Granted I didn´t invest very heavily in base building. I did do that against Tom though and without Noumea I might have just passed 8000 VPs. So around 9k with Noumea and most allied bases maxed out. You had what? 12,5k VPs at the end of 42? Thats a very big number and I doubt many allied players reach that kind of number in 42. Feel free to prove me wrong though! [:)] OK! [:)] I'm playing Lokasenna in a Scenario 2 game. No HRs of course. He has non-historic R&D. I believe we have weather OFF, but I don't recall. He is as good a JFB as CB, trust me. I'm average at best in my second PBEM. Just loaded the December 10, 1942 turn in Tracker. I have 14, 897 VPs. I've lost 400 more airplanes than he has. He owns Suva, Noumea, and all of China but Chungking. I suck at ground combat; I've made mistake after mistake, including several just this week. What's the difference? Ships. Just ships. You can't make it up with base building alone. On my side of the FOW I've sunk 366 Japanese ships. He's sunk 438 of mine, mostly in the first two months. It's a NAVAL game. You can't avoid auto-vic on land in 1942. A good JFB will eat you up. To Squeeze I would ask, if you won't use the RN to save Ceylon what are you saving it for? There are good bases all the way north to Karachi. He unloads fast, yeah, but not forever. Two more weeks actually. You don't need carriers to hurt the invasion zones. Trade 10-pt DDs for 10-Pt xAKs and you win the exchange. Your FOW is way off compared to my FOW (436 IJN to 422 Allies). Of course, I don't trust Tracker. I mostly keep track in my Word notes, though I don't have any tallies.

SqzMyLemon -> April 17/42 (10/4/2014 2:10:32 AM)
Here's a brief update while Andre is still away. Despite the recent loss of Ceylon to the Japanese, Commonwealth troops are still fighting back. The Japanese 5th Tank Rgt. probing near Howrah ran into trouble. British Blenheim's targeting the enemy force over the last two days, allowed the Allies to launch a deliberate attack forcing a retreat. AAR follows: ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Ground combat at 51,36 (near Howrah) Allied Deliberate attack Attacking force 8662 troops, 67 guns, 59 vehicles, Assault Value = 381 Defending force 394 troops, 0 guns, 103 vehicles, Assault Value = 28 Allied adjusted assault: 376 Japanese adjusted defense: 65 Allied assault odds: 5 to 1 Combat modifiers Defender: terrain(+), leaders(+) Attacker: Japanese ground losses: Vehicles lost 15 (15 destroyed, 0 disabled) Units retreated 1 Allied ground losses: 56 casualties reported Squads: 0 destroyed, 9 disabled Non Combat: 0 destroyed, 1 disabled Engineers: 0 destroyed, 0 disabled Vehicles lost 13 (7 destroyed, 6 disabled) Defeated Japanese Units Retreating! Assaulting units: 254th Armoured Brigade 1st Burma Division Defending units: 5th Tank Regiment Japanese forces seem to be withdrawing from the Calcutta region as Cuttack with a 9/10 DL appears empty of troops. The British 7th Armoured Bde. is three days away and if the base is empty might cut off the Japanese 5th Tank Rgt. As Commonwealth forces consolidate their position at Bezwada, Japanese forces appear to be massing at Cocanada for another move. Some Japanese units have disappeared from recon in the wooded terrain, but Commonwealth forces are in blocking positions and I should be able to counter a move to flank Bezwada. I failed to mention on the 15th that I launched a series of sweeps against Vizagapatnam in an effort to allow an attack against Japanese shipping unloading at the base. Huge mistake! Oscar's decimated the P-400's and P-40B's while the LRCAP P-38's perform poorly. Once again, Allied forces suffered dive after dive from being committed at a lower altitude. All air losses on the day were 38 Allied against only 10 Japanese. It was a mistake on my part to even attempt the missions, as I knew the Japanese TF could have unloaded already and most likely on it's way home. That was exactly what happened and I sacrificed a large number of aircraft and inexperienced pilots for absolutely no gain. These are the kinds of mistakes that I must avoid. Free VP's to Andre will does not help my cause. Here is a current screenshot of India. [image]local://upfiles/33192/E9FF500EAC454B348F02C35AEB7994F4.jpg[/image]

SqzMyLemon -> RE: April 17/42 (10/4/2014 2:23:14 AM)
With Changsha falling, Japanese forces begin to move forward once again. I'm confident both Changteh and Chihkiang can hold for some time, but defending Kweilin is beginning to look tenuous. Supply is low and if the bulk of Japanese forces target the base it won't hold for long. I'm already withdrawing some units to better terrain. Japanese forces are also moving towards Lanchow, but slowly. The bulk of Japanese forces are still at Sian, but a number of divisions are leading the advance. I'm shifting some Chinese LCU's towards Kungchang to try and slow the enemy move. Luckily, the 4th Group Army of five corps has reached Ankang and will be reinforced in another week by 2nd Group Army of three more corps. These units were the original blocking force southeast of Sian and have made the long trek through the woods to reach Ankang. These Armies total 1700AV and will allow me to move additional troops forward to try and slow the enemy advance on Lanchow. I have to be careful to not over-commit for a defence of Lanchow, because if the base falls my troops will probably retreat towards Sining and be removed from the war effort for all intents and purposes. I'm still happy with China, but supply is dwindling and we all know what happens then. Here's a screenshot. [image]local://upfiles/33192/A8F8306844FA4AB2BEF0D573C33D213C.jpg[/image]

SqzMyLemon -> RE: April 17/42 (10/4/2014 2:36:23 AM)
While Andre is away I've taken the time to go over the entire map and make sure I am utilizing all my units in some capacity. Alaska and the Aleutians are being reinforced in the north. Supply and fuel is being shipped to Pearl Harbor. The Marquesas are being secured and expanded. These islands will become a logistical base for supplying Tahiti and area. The priority is to establish bases for PBY's so I can move forward without getting ambushed. I must be in a position to move on Fiji and New Caledonia if needed to avoid AV, so it's important to get supply and assets to New Zealand and Australia by a more direct route than Cape Town. Pilot training is going well and I'm redeploying more air units to Australia and India, although it may be tougher to reach India now that Colombo is in Japanese hands. Many submarines have completed their radar upgrades and are once again taking up patrol positions. With the dud rate being what it is, I have no interest in trying to hunt Japanese merchant shipping. All my remaining submarines are being used to provide recon of Japanese movements and support some naval operations I have planned. Despite the low morale lately, I'm enjoying the Allied side and trying to weather the storm. Hopefully, I've spent this break from turns wisely and put into motion a number of moves that will take some pressure off eventually and net me some VP's.

Ha, okay I was wrong. If an idiot like me in my 1st PBEM can get almost 11k VPs I suppose 12,5 should be very doable. [:D]

SqzMyLemon -> April 18/42 (10/16/2014 4:33:37 PM)
A brief update. Andre is back, but we've only gotten in two turns since last week. I'm awaiting the replay for April 20th. The recent major developments are in India, but no surprise there. Japanese CV's are spotted covering the approaches west of Ceylon as Japanese transport TF's head to Colombo. I'm getting lots of SigInt reports now of Japanese units prepping for numerous bases in India. Madras, Calcutta and Calicut are the most mentioned. With a large enemy CV force covering the transfer of Japanese units from Ceylon to India proper there isn't going to be much opportunity to interdict these operations. I do have a few ideas though. Japanese dispositions on India proper are much the same, but the 5th Tank Regiment is in serious trouble near Cuttack. Recon indicates Cuttack is abandoned by Andre and there's a small chance a British Armoured Bde. will reach the base prior to the withdrawing 5th Tank Regiment. If so, there's a chance I could remove this enemy unit from the OOB. Blenheim bombers are also hammering this unit, weather permitting, daily. The loss of a lone Japanese Tank Regiment may not mean much in the big picture, but the securing of both Bezwada and Cuttack will keep Andre pinned along the coast, while my bases are inland and immune to naval bombardment. I will be able to switch forces to either flank, whichever is the more threatened. If Japan lands at Calicut, then holding Madras in strength may not be a smart move as it risks being cut off. I will try and contain a landing at Calicut to the coast and prevent any encircling move by the Japanese. Right now I outnumber the Japanese in India, but once the enemy forces from Ceylon are redeployed Andre will hold the advantage. It's going to be extremely fun trying to avoid a catastrophe in India. There has been little Japanese air activity in India to date, but that will increase now that Andre is moving once again. I will be very selective in committing air units to battle, and will do so only if absolutely needed. I'm sending more American 4E's to Cape Town in an effort to further reinforce India. The American 32nd Division is also deploying to Cape Town, whether I can get it to India remains to be seen. I'm trying to get moving in the Pacific, but base infrastructure and supply is negligible. I'll rely heavily on U.S. Marine Corps units for any offensive operations. The first plan is to retake Christmas Island, but I need to land in overwhelming strength and with enough supply to outlast any Japanese counter-invasion plans. I'll be trying to establish a solid LOC to New Zealand to allow a build up for a move to liberate Fiji or New Caledonia. An idea to secure the east coast of Australia and move directly against New Guinea, bypassing Fiji and New Caledonia altogether, is also being planned. Operations to actively begin raiding into Japanese LOC's in the Pacific are also being planned. Recently upgraded submarines are now being deployed to patrol zones to locate possible targets. SCTF's will move into positions to interdict any targets found, but avoiding detection will be the main problem.

SqzMyLemon -> RE: April 18/42 (10/16/2014 6:36:47 PM)
With the slow pace of this game, I'm contemplating adding another PBEM to my dance card. At this stage I'm happy with any scenario, settings, betas or side. I have no interest in doing another AAR, but have no problem with an opponent doing one if they choose to. If interested, PM me please and we can discuss the terms.

SqzMyLemon -> April 20/42 (10/17/2014 4:41:08 PM)
Japanese 5th Tank Regiment reaches Cuttack at the same time as my British Armoured Bde. The hex remains Japanese controlled so cutting off a retreat route isn't possible. I've ordered a deliberate attack tomorrow to rout this enemy force which appears to be at half strength and severely disrupted from the Blenheim's. Japanese paratroops land at the base southeast of Calicut, but the Madras Police Bn. passing through the base via rail movement prevents the capture of the base. I'll try to hold long enough to get reinforcements to Calicut before the Japanese arrive. I'm starting to be stretched thin and it's going to take some fancy maneuvering to block Andre's moves in India. I must avoid being encircled, and that will mean Madras will have to be abandoned at some point if I can't hold the line. There are no combat LCU reinforcements on the horizon in India for some time, so what I have is it. Depressing.

SqzMyLemon -> Massive Japanese landings... (10/19/2014 8:08:24 PM)
April 21/42: Calicut, in India, is the scene for massive Japanese landings on the west coast of the country. Here is what I can determine has landed so far, although the unit count is actually 18 LCU's at the base so far. 3rd Mortar Bn. 5th Mortar Bn. 35th JAAF AF Bn. 21st Army HQ 55th Mtn Gun Rgt. 3rd Provisional Base Force 1st Base Force 8th Tank Rgt. 33rd Division Meanwhile, Imperial Guards Division, Yokosuka 2nd SNLF and 2nd Tank Rgt. capture Comilla. The only positive note for the Allies is that the combined efforts of the Blenheim ground bombing campaign and a deliberate attack by British 7th Armoured Bde. wipes out the Japanese 5th Tank Rgt. at Cuttack.

SqzMyLemon -> RE: Massive Japanese landings... (10/19/2014 8:26:54 PM)
Some thoughts. It's very interesting to get glimpses of what an opponent thinks during the game about his opponent's play. I was teasing Andre a little about how his 5th Tank Rgt.'s days were numbered and his response was simply his diversion worked and drew forces away from Bombay and Karachi. Now strong Allied forces are unable to counter his current landings and presumably his drive on Madras. I guess he perceives that I fell for his strategy hook, line and sinker. On the other hand, I see things completely differently. I can't hold every coastal base in India in any kind of strength to counter a large amphibious operation such as is landing at Calicut right now. Any base could have been chosen as the target and would have met with equal success. Contrary to thinking he drew forces away from Bombay and Karachi he actually drew forces that were guarding Calcutta, Chittagong, and Dimapur to Cuttack and area. These units are now in a much better position to counter his current operations. Initially, when just a single Tank Rgt. was located at Cuttack with no further reinforcement from Vizagapatnam, it became obvious it was a feint, but I still had to defend against an early move on Calcutta. I've successfully prevented a break out from the initial Japanese landings, have kept my forces intact and have actually used the opportunity to gain valuable experience for my units by committing them in favourable matchups to date. So on my end, I think I've achieved some measure of success in both air and ground operations while conserving my units for the bigger fight that is about to occur. Fort levels at key bases are high and just need reinforcement before Japanese forces arrive. Most of my units are prepped for the major bases already. I really don't see how else I could have better countered the initial moves while still being in a position to offer a strong defence against the superior numbers currently being deployed against me. It's one of the fascinating aspects of playing a game of this nature against another person. What one person perceives about the other's play is often based on their own perception of events, while the other person sees a completely different picture. It has yet to be determined whose perception of events is wrong. [:D]

SqzMyLemon -> RE: Massive Japanese landings... (10/20/2014 5:28:35 PM)
I am getting nervous about India. If I had two more divisions, particularly American ones, I'd feel much better. I really only have three combat effective ones in the theatre, as the Indian divisions need time to gain experience and fill out. I'm going to be stretched really thin I fear. I've got as many small bases covered by what LCU's I can spare to prevent easy paratroop drops. If Andre gains clear rail lines to key bases I will be in trouble. I'm debating whether to move my remaining CV's to Cape Town, or leave them at Pearl Harbor. I might have to anyway as it is imperative that reinforcements are able to reach India and Australia. I need to do something to prevent Andre from simply piling it on in India unmolested.

Just thought I'd mention, to those that may be following along, that I'm going to be winding down the AAR. The pace of the game right now is incredibly slow and I have no motivation to update the AAR anymore. It's been hard to get any momentum due to the lack of turns, so I'll just quit worrying about documenting the game for the foreseeable future. I'll let you know if I get AV'd of course. [:D]

I'd just love to see your progress, and good things you're doing of technique and of course having a look at some ships. Not so interested in choppers, I have to admit! For my slower game (4-6 turns a week) I wasn't posted in the AAR mainly because not much was happening. now as it is I find myself wanting to post more, but I've been only doing occasional updates on specific events or overall strategic positions every once in a while. That seems to help me stay invested in the game and understand it differently than if I was just playing, so I'll keep doing that every so often. The AAR is for you, so do what you'd like, but know you also do have some interested readers. [:)]

SqzMyLemon -> A pre-update post (1/16/2015 5:59:21 PM)
Just thought I'd mention we've reached June 20/42. I'll post the intelligence screen next post, but off the top of my head I believe Andre is less than 2000 VP away from achieving a 4:1 auto-victory. I'm not optimistic on avoiding a 3:1 defeat by Jan. 1/43 either. Too many VP's are yet available in China and the Philippines to put Andre over the top. I'll post a few screenshots this weekend to show the situation. The game has been fun, but I'm perhaps guilty of being too timid with the Allied forces initially that gave up too many high VP locations. However, considering Andre's play style I needed to preserve as much strength as possible in order to be in a position to counter by June/42. There have been a number of Allied successes of late, but it may be too little too late to avoid losing the game by AV. It's been fun though and Andre is a tough opponent. He likes to kill things, and his entire strategy is based on wiping out Allied units while taking high VP locations on the map. Had I chosen to defend Ceylon or Calcutta for example, I'd already have lost the game from having the majority of Commonwealth units destroyed defending them. I did what I felt was the best course of action, but it appears I'll run out of time and VP's before Jan 1/43. It's not over yet, but...
