Told you air losses where pitiful for the day.

LangSon...will be a major base.

Lowpe -> Rebirth! (9/15/2017 12:45:25 AM)

I am used to playing variable entry, so days like this are a new experience for me. This is the 2nd day in the last 30 where significant assault value arrived en masse.

What joy!

Ah well, it is like a new game is starting....



Yeah, you are deep into this one having gauged your opponent and now a new one steps in with likely a completely different take. Very tough as IJ ...

Good Luck!!!

Hmm., where to begin. How about Burma. Japan bombs and strafes, Allies quiet.

The US ID isn't that big of a deal, but killing that Aussie ID is ... good job.

Bombing CHI devices => good exp for your bomber pilots. SWEET! [8D]

New Britain

The main Yankee/Australian/New Zealander thrust. What a mess of troops out there, that I am barely keeping in supply, and really need to pull back from the monster runways the Allies have, while delaying and inflicting some losses.


I agree. Extricate ASAP as best you can. Get those Mavis/Emily engaged.

Plane losses for the day was tiny, but ship losses substantial for Japan. The collision is wishful thinking I am sure. But that Island is always a good hunting ground for Iboats.



Well, yes and no. Sure the Mamiya is a lot of points, but AG's are a dime a dozen in terms of converting xAK's to them so I don't consider it much of a loss.

Lowpe -> RE: Finis (9/15/2017 2:38:45 PM)

I use fighter bombers in their ground support role. Really, anywhere the Allies have light AA I will send them in. I will also send them in against decent AA protected troops if I want to bleed the supplies down prior to an attack.

I also use them for deep base defense. That the Allies haven't done any deep base raids allows me to keep using them in their fighter bomber role for now.

As you can see, they have been busy and the average pilot experience is quite high.

I also have used Oscars in this role, and I am now transitioning over my Tony sentais' to this role, too.

The experience gain is good, the risk generally low.

The 12th Division...one of Japan's best divisions, but this guy has been rebuilt after being destroyed at Hollywood.

They are resting at Bangkok, prepped for Moulmein. I think they will wait a bit at Bangkok, in case the Allies make a move towards Sumatra. I am loathe to send more troops into Burma.

Hopefully they can raise their experience a bit now.

I didn't want to say anymore.[8D]

Turn is finished and away, and I am not really doing too much.

To clarify, look at your Strategic Map up above. You'll immediately spot the New Guinea Displacement Syndrome.

The true cost of losing a crack division ... exp on replacement devices comes in at the national starting point which is 35 for most of the IJ .... [:(]

Supply cost isn't insignificant either.[:(]

Meanings within meanings within conundrums wrapped in enigma machines...almost typed another en word by freudian mistake.

I am glad you pointed that out to me.[:D]




Canoerebel -> RE: Finis (9/15/2017 3:38:10 PM)

I just hope you aren't engorged, enraged, enervated or ensconced.




Lowpe -> RE: Finis (9/15/2017 3:47:20 PM)

I am ensconced in the Empire quite comfortably, thank you very much. But mostly just a little drugged which is never the best way to do turns or post for that matter.[8|]

Legally drugged, that is.

Is there a penalty for PUI (Posting Under the Influence)?




Lowpe -> Rebirth! (9/15/2017 6:27:56 PM)

Within the next month or so Japan will get:

2 squadrons of Tabby
2 squadrons of George (for a total of 4)

Plus quite a few carrier groups with excellent pilots as the final slug of fleet carriers complete construction.

I now have 3 squadrons upgraded to the A6M8.

Japan is strengthening...but is it fast enough?

BTW, to buy out one of those fresh arriving regiments is 335 PP. I am thinking about converting some of the Japanese Islands to China Command and flying them in since they are air mobile...just thinking about it at present.

Penalty for PUI (Playing Under the Influence) is known to be quite severe at times. Up to SCLS (Sudden Carrier Loss Syndrome) hangover [:D]

Can you elaborate on what you mean by the American vs. Australian divisions? I just rolled over into 1943 in my game and I'm about to bag 2 American and 1 Australian division. I have to admit I'm quite pleased with myself. For the divisions I saw the American divisions were larger in terms of raw AV but I was assuming the quality to be similar. Were you just meaning it is easier for the Americans to rebuild a lost division than the Australians?




Lowpe -> RE: Finis (9/16/2017 1:41:19 AM)

Replacement pools for the Aussies aren't very great, and they are super nasty fighters. American divisions are easily replaced because pools are deep.
