Belphegor -> RE: WPO Beta AAR: Sprior(IJ) vs Belphegor(Allies) Campaign 1. (9/26/2005 6:01:05 AM)

The coastal defences are the only thing working in Hangchow.... 2 DDs sunk (I think) so far...

I can neither confirm nor deny the Allies claims ast to losses at Hangchow. What I can say is this; opposed landings hurt - but then what do you expect when you try to land fully loaded combat troops using the ships' jolly-boats?

Anyway, here are the Naval reinforcements japan can expect soon (I have removed merchies and auxiliaries for clarity)

Belphegor -> RE: WPO Beta AAR: Sprior(IJ) vs Belphegor(Allies) Campaign 1. (9/28/2005 5:00:27 AM)

Hoping for the final push on Midway tomorrow. All damaged ships have made it back (all that will make it back) and a tally presented tomorrow.

The US Battle Fleet is effectively 1/3 strength while the remainder repairs. I am unable to send help anywhere currently. Not much else to tell. I don't know how far the IJN fleet has pulled back, reports of two BBs sunk near Marcus I.

Belphegor -> RE: WPO Beta AAR: Sprior(IJ) vs Belphegor(Allies) Campaign 1. (9/28/2005 6:36:18 AM)

Most of the lasting damage to the IJN was done by my battleships. 3BBs and a BC lost for Japan. There were a number of other shipping losses for Japan, mainly to the CD guns.

Quiet turn.

Hint: You will need to convert AKs to AS and AR to support long-range operations as the IJN.




Belphegor -> RE: WPO Beta AAR: Sprior(IJ) vs Belphegor(Allies) Campaign 1. (9/29/2005 5:21:14 AM)

My major naval losses so far... I have a lot of damaged ships, but have been fortunate that I haven't lost a lot entirely.

Mindanao finally falls! The build-up in China continues, 3 divs now ashore... Reinforcements on way to PI.




Belphegor -> RE: WPO Beta AAR: Sprior(IJ) vs Belphegor(Allies) Campaign 1. (9/30/2005 2:41:20 AM)

Equally as important as the announcement that Mindanao falls to the Japanese is the fact that the last Japanese forces on Midway surrendered today.

The first attempt to capture Midway has failed! I hope that it is also the only attempt, although with more reinforcements soon to arrive, I welcome the opportunity to destroy the Japanese hopes so close to my home bases.

Hangchow falls! Now my TFs can dock and unload without having to brave the surf...

the PI looks like this:

Belphegor -> RE: WPO Beta AAR: Sprior(IJ) vs Belphegor(Allies) Campaign 1. (10/2/2005 2:44:00 AM)

The fall of Hangchow means the seige of Shanghai. Not much to do about it ecept interdict the supply shipments. Looks like time for the US Asiatic fleet to make another appearance... after they finish repairing.




sprior -> RE: WPO Beta AAR: Sprior(IJ) vs Belphegor(Allies) Campaign 1. (10/2/2005 4:50:05 PM)

7/25

It does indeed. IJA troops cut the Shanghai railway at Soochow.




Belphegor -> RE: WPO Beta AAR: Sprior(IJ) vs Belphegor(Allies) Campaign 1. (10/3/2005 6:30:21 AM)

Things are moving too fast in China. Shanghai will be isolated as I expect the Japanese will take Soochow shortly.

We seem to have got inside the Chinese reaction loop. Hurrah!

Other news: still plugging away at PI. Manilla is the big kahoona of VPs (3600) for the Japanese. Gotta take it.




Belphegor -> RE: WPO Beta AAR: Sprior(IJ) vs Belphegor(Allies) Campaign 1. (10/4/2005 6:02:49 AM)

The defenders of Clark Field... remember, this is from an earlier Beta version... as Tankerace mentioned, you won't have this many troops to play with in the PI. But I do [;)]

Belphegor -> RE: WPO Beta AAR: Sprior(IJ) vs Belphegor(Allies) Campaign 1. (10/7/2005 7:21:32 AM)

Not much to report at this point. Still repairing most of my fleets. And getting my transports in order. Again, you want to see something, please let me know.

Thanks. That one was caught in a version after we had begun the PBEM game.





Tankerace -> RE: WPO Beta AAR: Sprior(IJ) vs Belphegor(Allies) Campaign 1. (10/9/2005 10:29:04 PM)

Yeah, we caught it early on in the small scenarios, didn't know it wsas in the big ones until alter. Don't worry its already fixed.




Alikchi2 -> RE: WPO Beta AAR: Sprior(IJ) vs Belphegor(Allies) Campaign 1. (10/10/2005 9:12:57 AM)

Could I see what the stats are on the Iron Duke? (Has she changed any since 1918?)

Oh, and do the British resell HMS Canada back to Chile in this scenario? Always loved that ship. If you have it around, could I see it too?

Thanks! [:)]




Tankerace -> RE: WPO Beta AAR: Sprior(IJ) vs Belphegor(Allies) Campaign 1. (10/10/2005 9:42:04 AM)

Posting those screens in a new thread in about a minute.
