Feb 23, 1942 After that the Georgetown bombardment group makes a significant discovery; CA Ashigara, damaged and just sitting around in port. [X(] I wonder how many other damaged IJN ships are spread around the map hidden away. I'd like to get a few 500 pounders onto this girl, but I'm sure now the base will be crawling with A6M. I've just moved some 4E to India to bomb the oil at Magwe. He seems a bit stretched, so maybe I can get in here, but it depends on how damaged the ship is currently. Now that Sabang is operable, I'll send recon up there to check it all out. Who knows what else I'll find. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- AFTER ACTION REPORTS FOR Feb 23, 42 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Night Naval bombardment of Georgetown at 49,74 Japanese aircraft no flights Japanese aircraft losses Ki-27b Nate: 2 damaged Japanese Ships CA Ashigara, Shell hits 1 Allied Ships CL Caledon CL Colombo CL Achilles Japanese ground losses: 10 casualties reported Squads: 0 destroyed, 0 disabled Non Combat: 1 destroyed, 2 disabled Engineers: 0 destroyed, 0 disabled Vehicles lost 2 (1 destroyed, 1 disabled) Heavy Industry hits 1 Airbase hits 2 Airbase supply hits 1 Runway hits 20 Port hits 2 Port fuel hits 1 CL Caledon firing at Georgetown CL Colombo firing at Georgetown CL Achilles firing at Georgetown -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- [image]local://upfiles/37283/AB8FB97002964AA1A9909B338EB93AE4.jpg[/image]

Feb 23, 1942 Over Magwe Hurry IIb sweep and clear the air well. The Buffs do not, but the 15 B-26 get through unharmed and get 2 more oil hits. While he's distracted and busy with Singers and the Sumatra reinvestment, I'd like to turn Magwe to rubble. I'm moving three 4E groups to Calcutta to continue the process, and I'll bring the B-26 to Singers eventually, where they can hit troops and oil if opportunities arise. For Magwe I'd like to not leave more than 25 oil producing. Then move back to wiping the rest of Djambi, and then another surprise coming to do some more big damage to the oil, I hope.

Feb 23, 1942 Another light hit on Singers troops and lots of IJ fighters knocked down.

Feb 23, 1942 In the 111,43 hex, a x3 terrain IJA blocking position, troops are now in position for a big DA tomorrow. We have a 2387 - 640 AV ratio, which should be enough to force a 1:1 at least, if not a 2:1. The tanks and arty here are good an plentiful, but who knows the added fort levels of the border fortress. Hailar troops are slowly whittled down and surrounded. In a few turns we'll be able to turn this army south. Since it's about 1/4 of the total IJA AV in Manchuria to start, it should be a serious threat and should force reserves to the front. The aim is to cut off troops on the NE side of Manchuria, to the East of Harbin near Heiho/Sunwu, and to take Tsitsar, threatening Harbin itself. This will leave the north somewhat vulnerable, but I'll leave about 3-4 divisions in the SE in strat mode on the rail in case the IJA make a move toward Mongolia. If the NE sector can be cleared it will shorten the front and prevent the easiest move to cut Soviet rail lines. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- AFTER ACTION REPORTS FOR Feb 23, 42 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Ground combat at 111,43 (near Mutankiang) Allied Bombardment attack Attacking force 27628 troops, 663 guns, 266 vehicles, Assault Value = 2387 Defending force 22472 troops, 264 guns, 100 vehicles, Assault Value = 640 Japanese ground losses: 250 casualties reported Squads: 0 destroyed, 13 disabled Non Combat: 1 destroyed, 2 disabled Engineers: 1 destroyed, 10 disabled Allied ground losses: 96 casualties reported Squads: 4 destroyed, 6 disabled Non Combat: 1 destroyed, 0 disabled Engineers: 0 destroyed, 1 disabled Guns lost 5 (4 destroyed, 1 disabled) Vehicles lost 4 (3 destroyed, 1 disabled) Assaulting units: 77th Tank Brigade 72nd Tank Brigade 34th Rifle Division 40th Rifle Division 76th Tank Brigade 205th Rifle Division 1st Amurskaya Tank Brigade 3rd Amurskaya Tank Brigade 46th Engr-Sapper Bde 13th Naval Infantry Brigade 209th Rifle Division 386th Howitzer Regiment 199th BM Howitzer Regiment 219th Corps Art Brigade 1132nd Howitzer Regiment 1194th BM Howitzer Regiment 215th Howitzer Regiment 1192nd BM Howitzer Regiment 221st Corps Art Brigade 1124th Cannon Regiment 50th Cannon Regiment 1132nd Howitzer Regiment 165th Hvy Howitzer Regiment 78th/186th PVO AA Battalion 1134th Howitzer Regiment 424th Hvy Howitzer Regiment Defending units: 5th Ind Engineer Regiment 57th Division 2nd Border Defense Fortress 77th Infantry Regiment 4th Ind.

Feb 24, 1942 Back to the war, sorry for the lack of updates. Weeks are busy. It's going ahead regularly though, and the game is just as intense and fascinating as it's been all along. After the sub contacts in the straits not much happening other than massive Soviet air strikes against troops in the 111,43 hex near Mutankiang. Over 300 2E and 4E hit the troops for minimal effect in the x3 rough forest, and when it came time for the ground forces to attack they found a well entrenched and experienced IJA defiant and strong. The attack came off at 1:2, and not close to even. Ouch. Since we're overstacked here and he's reinforcing it's time to pull back and swing troops around to where they'll be more effective, again. Strangely supply has been plentiful even though we were at 85k in a 55k hex. Not much disruption either. The troops left to block will easily hold the hex and the quick moving tank brigades will aim for the Koutou pocket, hopefully arriving before the IJA can escape. Other forces may swing up to the NE to hit the positions around Sunwu. This war is about mobility as much as anything. Hit em where they're not, all with the plan of quickly expanding the frontline forward while shortening the overall front distance and taking the forward IJA railheads. I want to be in a situation where once the better IJ airframes are online and the air war is untenable, the troops on the ground can hold and the AA will take precedence. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- AFTER ACTION REPORTS FOR Feb 24, 42 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Ground combat at 111,43 (near Mutankiang) Allied Deliberate attack Attacking force 66906 troops, 1107 guns, 1448 vehicles, Assault Value = 2385 Defending force 22174 troops, 264 guns, 100 vehicles, Assault Value = 619 Allied adjusted assault: 1025 Japanese adjusted defense: 1951 Allied assault odds: 1 to 2 Combat modifiers Defender: terrain(+), leaders(+), experience(-) Attacker: Japanese ground losses: 1794 casualties reported Squads: 8 destroyed, 105 disabled Non Combat: 1 destroyed, 16 disabled Engineers: 27 destroyed, 14 disabled Guns lost 15 (2 destroyed, 13 disabled) Vehicles lost 8 (1 destroyed, 7 disabled) Allied ground losses: 1455 casualties reported Squads: 51 destroyed, 133 disabled Non Combat: 10 destroyed, 38 disabled Engineers: 3 destroyed, 16 disabled Guns lost 31 (9 destroyed, 22 disabled) Vehicles lost 178 (34 destroyed, 144 disabled) Assaulting units: 76th Tank Brigade 46th Engr-Sapper Bde 3rd Amurskaya Tank Brigade 40th Rifle Division 34th Rifle Division 72nd Tank Brigade 77th Tank Brigade 13th Naval Infantry Brigade 205th Rifle Division 1st Amurskaya Tank Brigade 209th Rifle Division 1194th BM Howitzer Regiment 215th Howitzer Regiment 386th Howitzer Regiment 199th BM Howitzer Regiment 50th Cannon Regiment 165th Hvy Howitzer Regiment 1192nd BM Howitzer Regiment 221st Corps Art Brigade 1134th Howitzer Regiment 219th Corps Art Brigade 78th/186th PVO AA Battalion 1124th Cannon Regiment 1132nd Howitzer Regiment 1132nd Howitzer Regiment 424th Hvy Howitzer Regiment Defending units: 57th Division 5th Ind Engineer Regiment 2nd Border Defense Fortress 77th Infantry Regiment 1st Ind Field Artillery Regiment 4th Ind.

Feb 24, 1942 This is important. Having vacated the hex to go and take Padang, the Japanese left Benkolen open and the refugee units sitting one hex away just moved in to take it. This is timed to match the approach of some just a few days away. I'll fly in some air support, some supply, and have a few days to get ready to cover the invasion. At Palembang Lowpe has a level 5 field, lots of fighters and some bombers, but could fly in a lot more. Before all troops arrive I'll need to challenge the CAP there and whittle down the fighter cover. That requires Merak to get to level 2 airfields. It's nearly there, so all is on track. This map shows the extended plans for landings and troop movements on Sumatra. If Sabang has attracted all of the attention it has, this may attract more. Palembang is vital to the Empire. We're going virtually all-in, and I think he will too. What that means I don't know yet, but it's certainly going to shake things up. Possibly the KB will reform and the fighters that have been landed will rejoin it. We have to be quick and we need the AA to land soon!!! -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- AFTER ACTION REPORTS FOR Feb 24, 42 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Ground combat at Benkoelen (45,91) Allied Deliberate attack Attacking force 1445 troops, 0 guns, 0 vehicles, Assault Value = 33 Defending force 0 troops, 0 guns, 0 vehicles, Assault Value = 0 Allied adjusted assault: 14 Japanese adjusted defense: 1 Allied assault odds: 14 to 1 (fort level 0) Allied forces CAPTURE Benkoelen !!!

Feb 25, 1942 The Japanese invade Alexandrvsk!! This is slightly unexpected and definitely dangerous. I'd seen a lot of ships the past turn piling into the straits between Sakhalin and the mainland, but assumed they were either retreating from Toyohara still or getting a bombardment ready for one of the bases. As it turns out the mini-KB is here with an invasion fleet and a few SCTFs. I'd placed a few Soviet DDs at Alexandrovsk to protect the base and removed the MIGs out of bombardment range, but LR CAPed. As the IJN arrived the Soviets first engaged a 3 ship ASW TF of good Es, sinking to of them. These are gold in the early war, so this was a good starting action. After that a CL led TF entered the area, and the Soviet DDs mauled the Tachikaze and put a few hits on two other DDs before retiring. The 130mm CD guns then got into the action, hitting BB Ise and a big xAK. The Soviet DDs then engaged the mini-KB in a knife fight at close range and put some decent damage onto CVL Hosho, but lost the old Voikov to a long lance. All in all a great first showing and that should put some fear into the IJN about bringing important CV Bfs into this narrow territory, at least while the Soviet Navy is intact. It'll be a while before the USN can get ships over to support, so these DDs are it for now. The Soviet subs have done nothing against the combat ships here. They're all quite slow, which probably means they're better suited to merchant raiding. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- AFTER ACTION REPORTS FOR Feb 25, 42 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Night Time Surface Combat, near Alexandrovsk at 126,41, Range 2,000 Yards Japanese Ships E Hachijo, Shell hits 8, heavy fires, heavy damage E Kunashiri E Ishigaki, Shell hits 5, heavy fires, heavy damage Allied Ships DD Rezvyj DD Retivyj DD Redkij DD Voikov Low visibility due to Thunderstorms with 75% moonlight Maximum visibility in Thunderstorms and 75% moonlight: 2,000 yards -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Night Time Surface Combat, near Alexandrovsk at 126,41, Range 1,000 Yards Japanese Ships CL Nagara CL Kitakami DD Arashi DD Asanagi DD Yunagi DD Sawakaze DD Hokaze, Shell hits 2 DD Tachikaze, Shell hits 3, on fire DD Yugao, Shell hits 2 TB Otori Allied Ships DD Rezvyj DD Retivyj DD Redkij DD Voikov, Shell hits 2 Poor visibility due to Thunderstorms with 75% moonlight Maximum visibility in Thunderstorms and 75% moonlight: 2,000 yards -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Pre-Invasion action off Alexandrovsk (126,41) - Coastal Guns Fire Back! 174 Coastal gun shots fired in defense.

Feb 25, 1942 Subs dropped about 90 mines in a shallow open water hex next to Singers the 24th. The next day a big SCTF went right through with two BBs and a gaggle of DDs. The DD spontaneously cleaned up 13 of the mines. Grrrrrrrrr! [:@] Now I've got to face a bunch of fresh big nasty ships I wanted to get crippled. There are still 30+ subs in the straits, so maybe one or two will actually get lucky, but I haven't had much success agains the BB Bfs lately, even though about 10 have moved through massed subs over the past month. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- AFTER ACTION REPORTS FOR Feb 25, 42 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- TF 142 encounters mine field at 49,85 Japanese Ships DD Asagao DD Shinonome DD Shigure DD Ushio DD Yudachi DD Shiratsuyu DD Karukaya 13 mines cleared ASW attack near Singapore at 49,83 Japanese Ships DD Yamagumo BB Mutsu CA Chikuma CL Yubari DD Asagiri DD Shigure DD Shiratsuyu DD Hamakaze DD Karukaya DD Asagao DD Minekaze DD Ushio Allied Ships SS Porpoise SS Porpoise launches 4 torpedoes at DD Yamagumo DD Karukaya fails to find sub and abandons search -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ASW attack near Singapore at 49,83 Japanese Ships DD Minekaze BB Mutsu CA Chikuma CL Yubari DD Asagiri DD Yudachi DD Shigure DD Shiratsuyu DD Hamakaze DD Karukaya DD Asagao DD Ushio Allied Ships SS Cuttlefish SS Cuttlefish launches 2 torpedoes at DD Minekaze DD Karukaya fails to find sub and abandons search --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Feb 25, 1942 At Vladivostok Oscars wreak havoc on the old beat up Soviet biplanes and open cockpit fighters. Even a low CAP won't do the trick. The Oscar is almost as manoeuvrable as them anyway, so it probably will never work. I'll change things up. Luckily no bombers follow. I'll set them higher and might bring the MiGs back, plus send more AA back here. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- AFTER ACTION REPORTS FOR Feb 25, 42 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Morning Air attack on Vladivostok , at 112,46 Weather in hex: Light rain Raid detected at 45 NM, estimated altitude 21,000 feet.

Feb 25, 1942 Looks like he didn't bring enough for Alexandrovsk. I'd been sending the Sakhalinskaya Rifle Bde from Okha for weeks since the main LCUs moved out to Shikuka, and just sent the para unit in too. I'd been feeling nervous about this kind of thing, but thought he'd try it on the mainland. Luckily for me this I can cover, and the division will be back in full force after a few more days. With forts 5 the place is definitely secure, and this looks like another Japanese infantry unit that might suffer. Shikuka could be in trouble though. I have a distraction ready, but need some time to get US troops over. I finally got the command change to work (not sure why it took a few days, but maybe there is a threshold for unit size to do it?). Can send planes here too once the runway gets fixed. Nice spot for a few 4Es, eh? [8D] That makes me think he'll go all out to wreck it and counter invade. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- AFTER ACTION REPORTS FOR Feb 25, 42 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Ground combat at Alexandrovsk (126,41) Allied Bombardment attack Attacking force 5006 troops, 159 guns, 0 vehicles, Assault Value = 186 Defending force 4596 troops, 30 guns, 4 vehicles, Assault Value = 151 Assaulting units: Sakhalinskaya Rifle Bde /1 79th Rifle Div /1 202nd Airborne Bde /2 Alexandrovsk Naval Fortress Defending units: Guards Mixed Brigade 33rd Ind.AA Gun Co --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

PILOTS This is what P-38E pilots look like after two months in combat in late 41-42. These guys were switched out of the AVG and almost all kills were made int eh 21st PS in the P-38s. Boyington is the first to crack 90 EXP, but G.S. Welch leads all with 14 kills. A few very good 10+ kill pilots have been KIA, but not too many. Pilot safety is high in these planes flying mostly over our territory or nearby. There are only 17 P-38s left to keep us going until May when they go into a limited production. I'll save them right now for the Palembang operation. They'll be sweeping with Hurri IIb from Singers while both P-39D, P-40E and some other Dutch planes will be escorting and LR CAPing from Benkolen and Merak. If we lose them suddenly Singapore becomes vulnerable. The Hurris and USAAF groups can keep up a decent defence, but the Lightnings are the reason this game changed to first force the IJN to bombard the base with BBs, thus putting a good 3-4 in the yards for a month or two from mines, killed off 5-10 DDs, and then also kept the forts going up since there was never any sustained bombing of the base. If they can get to level 5 it's going to be good for the defence. Just at 4.53 now. [image]local://upfiles/37283/9CC40ACF2AA140B8AC4D5AB050D37268.jpg[/image]

CBI This is the state of things over in Burma. The progress o the destruction of Magwe oil is going okay. He doesn't seem to have the fighters available to keep an extended CAP up here int he face of AVG and RAF sweeps. The B-26 is very effective, and the 4E are now adding in as our sweeps weaken from the newly level 5 Calcutta. So hopefully we can really put the hurt on here and bring Magwe oil right offline. The IJA is sitting in Lashio with two divisions healing up disabled squads while we air transport some small Chinese units and the Burma division in from Myitkyina. Lashio is great terrain, and if the next attack holds decisively, then this could be a long battle. [image]local://upfiles/37283/AB562BEB09274CC1956BAC37BA3EF033.jpg[/image]

Feb 26, 1942 The 26th starts with a stunningly good bombardment from CA Tone at Shikuka.

Singers seems likely to live or die primarily on supplies. How much do you have there, and what are your prospects for getting in more? How are the replacements for the reinforcing LCUs in that base?

quote: ORIGINAL: Kofiman Singers seems likely to live or die primarily on supplies. How much do you have there, and what are your prospects for getting in more? How are the replacements for the reinforcing LCUs in that base? This is true. I've been flexible about use so far, but of course when troops move in the HI shuts down so less is available. It's around 18k now. It's going down more quickly though with combat in the hex, so I do have hopes of getting more in. I've never managed to do this, but I have a few new tools. One, the CM Abdiel, does 38 knots and holds 550 cargo. So that could be every other turn from a nearby base, but I have to switch the ship around to the Java area to start. Unless it connects with anything in the night he might never actually know it's making those runs from Batavia. Secondly, I have about 30 xAK filled and steaming off of Sumatra waiting to see if the IJN will bugger off or if any more arrive from the South China Sea. If there is a moment of calm, I'll try to sail some near Sumatra and through. This of course would work much better if Palembang airfields are suppressed, so that will be the primary goal in the near future.
