Shikuka: These enemy BBs don't have escorts and are showing smoke and fires.

Shikuka: Lonely enemy BBs are low on ammo. Will my LBA get a crack at them in the morning?

Shikuka: The enemy BBs continue to press forward. This is only the second enemy altercation against merchant ships pressed into emergency defensive service tonight. My combat TFs (of all kinds) have fought hard to keep the wolves from the sheep.

Shikuka: More good shepherds throw themselves at the wolves.

My ASW forces will be badly depleted after this night's fighting.

Shikuka: Will there be any PT TFs left to fight after this turn? Will there be anything left?

Shikuka: PT TF takes care of one enemy DD (that's five so far, I think).

Shikuka: Looks like confirmation of a 6th IJN DD sunk.

Shikuka: This PT TF wiped out without scoring any hits.

Shikuka: This enemy DD TF is dealing death to PT TFs.

Shikuka: A measure of revenge. IJN DD number 7?

Canoerebel -> RE: Notes from a Small Island (5/21/2018 1:50:35 AM)

Shikuka: Number 8?

Canoerebel -> RE: Notes from a Small Island (5/21/2018 1:55:19 AM)

10/2/44

Shikuka: Two hits.

So, Yamashiro and Fuso are both damaged fairly heavily.

Canoerebel -> RE: Notes from a Small Island (5/21/2018 1:57:29 AM)

I think that may be it for the nighttime phase.

The daytime phase is pretty active. I may end up summarizing or cutting things short. This is taking two lifetimes. Let's see.




Canoerebel -> RE: Notes from a Small Island (5/21/2018 1:59:48 AM)

10/2/44

Shikuka: Both sides are gassed at this point. I hope this DD TF survives the day and remains at Shikuka to replenish. It might be all I have left.

Shikuka: 9 and 10?

Shikuka: DMS vs. AMC in this arena of death.

Shikuka: APD vs. AMC.

Shikuka: Sunfish scores twice against badly damaged Fuso. Sinking sounds heard.

Shikuka: One AMC confirmed sunk; one HF/HD.

Good to see this Fletcher TF still fighting and still floating.

Shikuka: This tough enemy CL TF packs a wallop.

Shikuka: Allied LBA elect to go after KB as opposed to the enemy BB/CA stuff. Enemy CAP is stout but not uber. I have a lot (ALOT) of fighters and 1EB at Shikuka. Do they get savaged? Do they get through?

Shikuka: Weird package with only a few strike aircraft. A couple survive to launch. No hits.

Canoerebel -> RE: Notes from a Small Island (5/21/2018 2:28:34 AM)

Escorting fighters seem like mincemeat in AE. Or is it the way I handle them?




Canoerebel -> RE: Notes from a Small Island (5/21/2018 2:35:53 AM)

10/2/44

Shikuka: Funny, the ship interactions were accurate - no sync bug. But I think there is some sync issues with the air attacks on KB. So I'm going to summarize.

There are many strikes going in. Escorts and strike planes get savaged but gradually wear down the Zero CAP. My losses are very heavy.

The first strike to score is some unescorted Helldivers that find that tough CL TF without CAP (I would've like more of these!).

This is the second CL sunk in two days, and makes about 9 in the past month.

Shikuka: Brutal losses. Marianas Turkey Shoot in reverse. I don't look forward to looking at the Air Loss totals when I open the turn.

Canoerebel -> RE: Notes from a Small Island (5/21/2018 2:43:09 AM)

10/2/44

Shikuka: I'm not showing all the packages. They all look pretty much like these.

My thoughts at this point:

1. I'm glad I only committed about 1/3rd of my carrier air (the rest being LBA).
2. Will enough survive to fill each flattop fully?

10/2/44

Shikuka: Terrible losses. This looked like good odds when it started.

10/2/44

Shikuka: The enemy CAP is finally tuckered out, making me think, "Darn, I should have committed more, after all!"
