October 6, 1943

The first night naval attack...for naught. This opens Pandora's box I guess...but the Frances are very high experience and really what I built the unit for....

It was Betty, but the sentiment holds true![:)] Hopefully that will slow the Allies down a little in Burma.

October 7, 1943

A daring raid...in the Great North! SW of Kodiak...

Lowpe -> RE: Gnashing of Teeth: Cries of Fury (5/18/2017 10:23:39 AM)

Japanese ships approaching! Oh, my! Where are the battleships, the cruisers, the destroyers protecting us?

Lowpe -> RE: Gnashing of Teeth: Cries of Fury (5/18/2017 10:27:35 AM)

All three bases swept...a Triple![sm=00000055.gif]

Can the Yubari beat feet and get away?

Lowpe -> RE: Gnashing of Teeth: Cries of Fury (5/18/2017 10:30:19 AM)

Screening Rabaul...so that they can get the bulk of the 16th Division fast transported in...this destroyer squadron is set to low threat...


[image]local://upfiles/44178/347AC52958014E9AB592425AFE327082.jpg[/image]




Lowpe -> RE: Gnashing of Teeth: Cries of Fury (5/18/2017 10:38:57 AM)

Mission accomplished...another 145 mines dropped at Rabaul and the 16th arrives in fighting trim evening up the raw AV.

During the day the base is swept by at least 10 Allied fighter squadrons...but no bombers.

The screening destroyers make good their escape...at least for now.

A closer look at the threat control settings for the Yubari....

It was a full speed run, engagement range of 0...

Lowpe -> RE: Gnashing of Teeth: Cries of Fury (5/18/2017 11:33:17 AM)

I wonder if that Nasty Destroyer squadron stopped short to avoid the mines at Rabaul, or the screening destroyer squadron was able to strip it of just enough operations points...because in Rabaul harbor (damaged as it is) an AMC and AK-t are unloading....needless to say all operations cancelled and flank speed away!

But just north is a very strong, 2 CA 14 DD SAG that will make Rabaul today and they are undetected. Yesterday they dropped off a huge load of the 16th Division.

Also, at Feni is 4 destroyers un-detected. They will disband in port, and hide...perhaps tomorrow will offer some opportunity.

Oct 7, 1943

Quite a fair bit of carnage in the first week of October. Thankfully, most of it is Allied.[sm=00000028.gif] But, really, nothing of great significance. [:(]

Lowpe -> RE: Gnashing of Teeth: Cries of Fury (5/18/2017 11:50:34 AM)

Up near Katha, the Allies moved all 9 units to the west to attack my poor lonely blockers...and now I fear if he sets some of his units to pursuit they may arrive on the road between Katha and Shwebo and really devastate my AA holding the road...could be in for a nasty setback here.

Turn is away, and I didn't take a picture of it...sorry.

Also those 11 units on the plains are forcing the river south of Magwe now...

But will it actually happen or will they match off somewhere else? Those troops must have Marching Skill of 99 by now! [:)]

I don't like, don't like it at all! Why can't he go back to his lines and be a good little boy?






Lowpe -> RE: Gnashing of Teeth: Cries of Fury (5/18/2017 5:38:53 PM)

October 8, 1943

My guess is the Katha isolated troops are crossing the river today...

Darwin falls, mostly splinters...
