ADM Halsey -> Japan's Conquest of the Pacific (Adm Halsey vs Joliverlay) (8/7/2005 1:27:34 AM)
Yes I am playing Japanese for the first time. CHS 1.02 with lovely maps and counters, a lot of hard work was put into that and it was a very good job. Anyway, here goes: Opening shots as you can see Pearl Harbor went over poorly. Nothing sunk. I am going to hit it again next turn to see if I can sink anything. To those of you who are experts with the Japanese comments and suggestion are welcome.[&o] AFTER ACTION REPORTS FOR 12/07/41

I can not get APs to load troops at Palau. I can form the task force but load troops command can not be selected. As the situation developes I will start to make plans for DEI, and other areas. I stuck around for the second strike at Pearl and still no sunk BBs.

Plans for Malaya: I am going to try and stage paratropers to cut off the bulk of the Brits as they fall back to Singapore. Recon of the bases near Singapore will determine what places they will drop. I managed to catch the Repules and the PoW in port and do some damage to them. Plans for the South Pacific and New Guinea I am moving some of my BBs to Truk to support an invasion of Rabaul. Once Rabaul and Lae are secure, Gili Gili may be next. I have a force in route to Guadalcanal to establish air search operations. Once that is accomplish then it is on to Noumea and maybe New Zeland.

Only if I do not get to close to Pearl Harbor. In another game I was playing as Allied I took them on by parking my Lex and Big-E at Pearl. They got to close and 2 Japanese CVs went down and my two CVs badly damaged. He is using the level 4 airfield next to Pearl to evac planes and my have even brought B17s over to help. If so he does not have enough support to keep them all airborne. Hmmm if I where him where would I go with my two little CVs. I know where I would send them and that is where I shall go. A hunting we will go, a hunting we will go! Thanks for the info marky, it is a lot different playing Japan.

marky -> RE: Japan's Conquest of the Pacific (Adm Halsey vs Joliverlay) (8/7/2005 7:58:47 AM)
careful tho[:'(] not even that Deathstar is entirely invincible... if i was him id deploy all his subs... and remember ur ships dont have that much fuel, especially ur DDs unless u have AOs neawrby, tho i cant remember lol

ADM Halsey -> RE: Japan's Conquest of the Pacific (Adm Halsey vs Joliverlay) (8/7/2005 6:21:24 PM)
It looks as if a technical problem is going to cause us to restart. I had a wrond file which was causing map trouble for both of us. I have already sent off the new turn.

ADM Halsey -> RE: Japan's Conquest of the Pacific (Adm Halsey vs Joliverlay) (8/8/2005 3:59:52 AM)
The new game is underway and things are going along fairly well. Wake Island fell on Dec 7th on Dec 8th 3 bases in the Phillipines have fallen also. I am going to stick to my plan that I was brewing from last game. Pearl Harbor again after two days of strikes has not produced a sunk BB except Utah. I am not sure if I will hang around for a third day or not.

marky -> RE: Japan's Conquest of the Pacific (Adm Halsey vs Joliverlay) (8/8/2005 4:29:41 AM)
nono hang around dont make the same mistake nagumo made but thank god he did keep bombing pearl till u sink the BBs, they cant stay afloat forever u just have to put enuff torps into em maybe 7 or 8 per BB do as much damage as u can then if u can head for the west coast and see if u can find any merchies

ADM Halsey -> RE: Japan's Conquest of the Pacific (Adm Halsey vs Joliverlay) (8/8/2005 4:41:21 AM)
My bombers are not being very effective on the torpedo end of things. I want to hunt down the carriers so I do not have to worry about them later. I will see what happens when I get the next turn back.

marky -> RE: Japan's Conquest of the Pacific (Adm Halsey vs Joliverlay) (8/8/2005 4:43:14 AM)
those carriers r prolly long gone well maybe lol good luk

ADM Halsey -> RE: Japan's Conquest of the Pacific (Adm Halsey vs Joliverlay) (8/10/2005 4:48:37 PM)
After 3 days of bombing Pearl Harbor all I come up with is Utah sunk and Oklahoma sunk. There are a lot of other ships badly damaged. Intel from spys on the ground have reported 2 other BBs may be so badly damaged that repairs may not be possible and could be scraped instead of being repaired. Airborne operations in Malaya are on there second day and have secured one base and the fight is on for another to cut off retreating allied forces. I am still trying to get use to the Japanese end of operations and get better organized. I have had a problem with the Combat Report file not up dating so I can not show any status of the battles at the moment. If anyone knows of this problem happening before and know a fix any help would be great.

ADM Halsey -> RE: Japan's Conquest of the Pacific (Adm Halsey vs Joliverlay) (8/12/2005 4:30:21 AM)
12/14/41 Things are not moving along at light speed but they are moving. This is my first time playing the Japanese. Bases taken so far: Hong Kong, Wake, Guam, Makin, Tarawa, Vigan, Aparri, Legaspi, Alor Star, Kota Bharu, and Batan Island. Airborne drops have been conducted in Malaya to try and cut the retreat of allied forces. So far they have take one base (Malacca) and Kuantan is still being fought over. I have landings underway or to be conducted at Kuching, Baker, Lunga, and Cagayan (underway). Losses so far are as follows: Allies AK = 13 AO = 1 AP = 1 AVD = 1 BB = 2 ML = 1 PG = 2 PT = 2 TK = 1 Japan SS = 2 I am not sure if I am way behind the curve on expansion, but I need to sink more ships that is for sure. Well more later.

ADM Halsey -> RE: Japan's Conquest of the Pacific (Adm Halsey vs Joliverlay) (8/14/2005 1:53:47 AM)
12-17-41 Baker Island has fallen as well as Tarawa. I am thinking about Johnson Island as my next targert. If I do, it will have to be later in the month toward the end. I do have a question for anyone here that might read this. What would be the harm in Maxing out naval shipyards by expanding them as far as I can? (Other than eating up supply.) Would the ultimate plus mean faster build times on my ships? Remember this is my first time playing the Japanese and any tips would be great. I have almost cut Malaya in two. Its should be done by 12-18-41. Then I will take out the bases north of that line. Once done then on to Singapore. My subs near Hawaii had a chance to put a fish in the Lexington but failed to do so. The commander of the sub was reported as killed in action by the XO of the sub. [:D]

12-22-41 Things are moving along slowly. So far there has been no naval action to speak of. The Brits managed to put some bomb on a few ships off Malaya.

This will give me a chance to knock off some more allied shipping. Troops hit the beach at Rabaul to secure a forward air base in the South Pacific. I want to keep the allies guessing as to where my next main push will be after that. I am gathering forces to try for Johnson Island. It will give me a base to keep shipping near Pearl busy dodging torps, them if my luck holds out I will try to pick off Hilo.

Those B17s took to the skys and ran before they could be bombed. So far they have only done some damage to an AP and AK. So far the only ship losses I have are subs. The commander of the airforces responsible for bombing Clark Field is now commanding a Recon wing in China.

ADM Halsey -> RE: Japan's Conquest of the Pacific (Adm Halsey vs Joliverlay) (8/19/2005 5:43:04 AM)
12-31-41 Rabaul has fallen a day later than I expected. I have moved some LBs up along with some scout planes. I have spotted the American forces near Borneo and was unable to hit any ships. Only 9 Nells went in after them. I have noticed that my planes are not flying on a regular basis on there assigned mission. Except for Recon and a few Naval all other mission such as ground attacks are not flying. They are located at bases that can support the planes, also supply is good along with enough aviation support. I am moving 1 DD and 1 AV out toward Johnson Island to do a little Recon before the invasion fleet gets there. They should be moving out in the next couple of days.

02-21-42 Well it is February 1942 and I have still not been able to draw the American carriers out to do battle. I have taken Johnston Island and have a base to attack shipping in and around Hawaii. Manila is giving me trouble and Singapore is still in the allied hands. I have Lugnaville (sp) and I am expanding the base there. I will be reenforcing Lae and may try for Canton Island next. I have just deployed the newly finished Junyo and she will be steaming to Truk in a few days. In China: Yenan has fallen with heavy casualties on their side. (31757). All in all I would say it was a good day.
