Capt. Harlock -> House Rule (2/15/2006 10:30:54 PM)
Does this apply to fighter-bombers and torpedo bombers attacking land targets? Seems a bit limiting for fighter-bombers, since they historically did much damage by strafing.

Sneer -> RE: darwin again (2/16/2006 12:08:21 AM)
no level bombing only there is no need to think about fb now current rule is good Raver can achieve similar results as before on my bases but he will loose some planes

Capt. Harlock -> RE: darwin again (2/20/2006 1:01:57 AM)
Wow -- remarkable results from the pounding at Darwin. If I didn't know better, I'd say you were softening it up for invasion.

Sneer -> RE: darwin again (2/20/2006 10:44:27 AM)
50k troops reported and probably 7-9 forts today + hundreds of planes and supporting bases not encouraging enough I wanted to show that bases with so many a/c parked are vulnerable looks like Raver has 300 b-17 there used to bombing campaign and sth like 150 other planes in case naval attack would be desired and for cap purposes ( b-17 don't need cap as unless he hit my mayor base i would only loose pilots) good news is that many disbanded air sqn are back - or will be back and squadrons which got remanents earlier has often 10-15 surplus 80 exp pilots Raver has never pointed that directly but Southern DEI is a place he wants to fight and where I'll face his offensive movement in 43 Gilberts / baker / canton is too difficult to attack early - maybe with multiple axis assault in 3-4 points northern approaches are secured much better than in any AAR I read on forum so it should hold long enough - even if us fleet would be involved India - will be difficult to gather enough troops to have advantage in numbers in early 43 so it is late 43-early44 to fight so it is southern DEI where most interesting fights will take place

pauk -> RE: darwin again (2/20/2006 11:37:05 AM)
Actually i'm bit suprised that Raver is easy going with his planes. I would never expect that from him...Ok, you can do it once, but not twice or more.

Sneer -> RE: darwin again (2/20/2006 12:02:38 PM)
to be honest it was second action within week 1 one was poorly coordinated and brought only 90 planes there is a lot of thunderstorms in region - as well as all over the world so it is easy to hide under clouds

It is simply the quite before the storm.

Capt. Harlock -> RE: 1st september status (2/25/2006 10:47:29 PM)
quote: It is simply the quite before the storm. "Calm" before the storm. Interesting . . . at this point time works for and against both sides. It gives the Japanese a chance to build up their resource and production levels, but it also gives the Allied combat units a breather. The USN is not quite ready to take on the Japanese in all-out battles, although a coordinated attack with the remnants of Eastern Fleet might accomplish some good. How is the training of the TBF squadrons coming?

Sneer -> RE: 1st september status (3/2/2006 12:56:04 PM)
i think i know what Raver can do and want to prepare as good as I can I could not force him to decisive battle so i'll try to catch him in middle stage of war Good info is that today -9/18/42 - oscar stopped to be a frontline fighter - all groups besides training ones are equipped with Tojo/Tony low activity allows me for supply accumulation - almost 3,2mln now even if I spend a lot and repair all r&d factories at once also i can finish china without need to move a/c and supply somewhere else Fleet is in excellent shape - I carry out intensive air training in PI - fighters sqn are considered ready after reaching 75-78 lvl sallys /helens are trained to 85-95 and nells/betty had very low combat losses so are nearly as good as at war beginning 3rd carrier duvision+ light carriers train its air groups now- they were low on exp as part of pilots started as rookies and light carriers had no opportunity to rebuild cadres I made enormous effort - not seen in any of my games - to fortify my perimeter - can't wait to see results to be honest i miss my daily reports when game was full of action

Raverdave -> RE: 1st september status (3/3/2006 12:43:56 PM)
Sneer, you can horde supplies and oil till the cows come home, but at the end of the day it is not going to do anything for you. I am coming and I am carrying a big stick.[sm=00000028.gif]

we entered 10/42 today - situation update china - operations against inner allied bases started - chungking/Kwieyang targeted kungchang surrounded forces left and guarded - only land & air bombardment - waiting for patch - maybe this bug will be solved - i see weird situation there - number of chinase troops shown in combat report grows steadily north - quiet - recently reconed aleutians midway- wake region - allied sub activity - gato hit by nell baker/canton/gilberts S36 recently hit by mine - we have mine war on pacific salomons - quiet timor/n.guinea - allies occasionaly train bombers crews over less protected bases burma/east india - air war only - occasionaly Benares and sometimes other place under bombers/ FB raid [image]local://upfiles/10540/FC935CD7A35942D699ABE3015F074540.jpg[/image]

Sneer -> RE: darwin again (3/11/2006 10:27:58 AM)
you could always try to divert my supply as it was limited for a long time by any kind of counterattack 10/7/42 kweiyang taken with ease china is doomed I'm very surprised that i managed to take this base on first day of assault - looks like second ring of bases was not fortified heavily within 2 months I expect only Chungking in chinase hands 3.3 mln of supply - I start to prepare many fuel/supply dumps at chosen locations on perimeter line 2. Till september every ton of supply was sent to china and for a/c training as well as forts doing - very little was in operational reserve instead of serious fights. Now situation changes very quickly - in 2 month I will be ready for anything Raverdave can bring to me. Another experianced Kwantung Division should be released tomorrow with destination of Mobile Reserve.

Sneer -> RE: Disaster in China (3/12/2006 2:01:02 AM)
I don't understand this part about usefulness of this AAR. i hope this AAR will back to life when allied decide to do sth. difficult to say what to do with chinase army - there are several plans but first I need to clear inner ring of bases - it will be easy and will take up to 2 months. than I will face Chungking - I expect Raver to make last stand there. there will be sth like 25 big inf units free enough to make a big mess on continent All what happen and what is not seen is part of bigger plan which usefulness will be checked in next few months. I often thought about harassing pacific island and in the end found that balance of advantages is relatively small over costs in scenario where allies denies any decisive battle in 1942. Conclusion was that it is not profitable in long run. Am I right ? we will checkit sooner or later

Timor area always is weaker than North OZ bases but its purpose is not of offensive nature it is a shield where troops and planes rotate to be honest i prefer to fight you there not in pacific :-) i need ports for damaged ships you know ... otherwise brave japanese sailors will sink them during repairs in 2 months i will have 5 reserve divisions in mobile force [:D] ready for action together with attached transport units
