Tophat -> Blundering Across the Pacific!! (11/10/2004 4:11:21 AM)
|
This is 2nd AAR between moses and Tohat with a bit of role reversal,tophat is the <Jap imperialist>while moses is that <decadent westerner>.Scenario 15 House rules,good question actually....no taking blind advantage of the japanese 1st turn movement bonus. Only 1 port attack on turn #1 and thats at PH!! No attacking Chinese forces unless they start the game in the hex with you or move into a jap hex. This policy stays in effect untill Singapore Falls for me.....so moses rush more boys in there! I don't know what we are doing about the 2nd Marines anymore,thought 1.3 was going to address this with giving the Div more starting disruption? At this point I say just use it,get it out there so i can get at it! Starting Goal: Economic Independence and Security consistant with National Pride. Don't everyone scratch their head at once now,this is just my personal guideline spelledout so people who bother to read this have an idea of what i'm trying to achieve. And if anyone thinks or cares to comment on a particularly boneheaded move i make be sure to hit me over the head with how I just blew my chance at my goal! In startingoff as the Japanese I did the following to my Production: All Claude production was switched to A6m2 Zero All Nate production also switched to Zero's All Nell production switched to G4M1 Betty I need to check and see if I switch my Jake production to Kates or not. I did also increase Kate production. Engines: All Nissan to Nakajima Hitachi to Nakajima Tokyo I kept producing Ishikawajima All Kawasaki production was halted and shifted to Nakajima the exception to this was maizura<which kept kawasaki production and should meet my needs on this engine.> I did not expand vehicle or armament industry as of yet. I also on turn #1 had not come to a conclusion about what ship construction policy to follow. What hulls to halt and what hulls to accelerate,which leaves me now with a production point deficit. To solve this problem,which was again brought home to me by reading Tanaka's and guv's threads on ship production. Also irrelevant pointedout in stark terms the problem the jap player finds himself in early on regarding being short of production points for his Naval shipbuilding. I have decided at my next opportunity,that would be turn#3 to "Halt" work on the Shinano and use the production points saved to wipeout my deficit and to accelorate some other hulls. Now my reasons for going with halting work on Shinano were the following: Ship is sucking 180 naval production points into a black hole. I won't see this ship untill the war will have been decided,late 44' or early 45' depending on where I find the points to pay for her. The ship only is listed at 60 a/c capacity and for the points just doesn't seem economical. Halting production on this ship i'll probably never see anyway solves a host of production problems and gives me options.Its a No-brainer,we halt production. Ok there are my basic changes to Industry before the game begins.....please feel free to comment or give advice at anytime. Also for all you prospective jap players out there read: 1) accelerated ship thread by guv 2) Why does no one talk about what they do with production/research. 3) Zen and the art of japanese production. Now as to my opening move....i'm ofcourse blasting PH. Wake Island is going to be assaulted as well,i don't want PBY's coming out of there and spying on my dispositions. Conversely i do want to have my flyingboats based out of there spying on the U'S fleet. Also denying Wake as a sub base or refueling stop is important in my estimation. Malaya: Sealoff the peninsula from burma,then march to singapore takingon all comers. take that "big stick policy" and just beat the Brits,Auzzies,Indian and commenwealth troops over the head with it till i reach water. Borneo: Isolate it from allied airbases before taking the oil&resource facilities to minimize damage from bombing. PI: Get this cesspool of Allied troublemakers cleanedup and use the PI bases as staging points dig into the SRA and NG. Guam; pick it off with light forces fast.
