KPAX -> RE: Countering Japanese LBA in 42. (8/31/2004 9:11:09 PM)
|
It is mid Dec 41 in my PBEM. Had most of my bombers on 100 ft Naval attack. They typically get creamed, but do get some nice pops in on AKs / APs. They did get several in on a BB (not much daamge though causing 5 SYS damage takes time to fix), nice damage to a CA, and put a DD on fire. Experience needs to be 60+ for skip bombing. Since I can not / will not get all my LBAs out of DEI (becuase of PP cost) I intent to use them to my fullest extent. I have moved out the recons some patrols and Buffalos (that convert to Huricanes II) out, the rest can stay and fight. Since my foe went for Palambang, which they took easily since there are no troops stationed there, without going for Singapore, I intend to bomb Palambang airfiled until it is not usable. I think from there, with a dozen DDs I left in DEI to do some damage. I should be able to force him to make a big committement of LBA and hopefully his CV TF enough so that I can juggle some things around for a bit. IMHO, use those figthers / bombers in DEI to their fullest extend.
