Not if I can just kill Lt. Putnam

May have to send a SNLF hit team to take him out.


ha!...you think i would throw all my eggs in one basket like that??...fool!, i already have another pilot with 15 kills. Not only that, but i also have a Dutch Catalina pilot with a kill. A zero pilot looked at him the wrong way, and he was sent cartwheeling into the ocean.

Freakin' Dutch

Must have been an Oscar he shot down. I am sure I lost a few to aggressive tropical birds that got defensive of their turf. I have only 5 Oscar pilots with kills (1 each). Their lifespan in combat is very short. I have Sallys with more kills.

India or OZ make no sense due to the good rail lines. Sri Lanka can't reach any freindly base. Same with China.

No C-47s captured on the ground at recently captured bases in India to indicate that they are even in theater.

Much be Noeuma area trying to avoid Bettys/Mines

He may be flying supplies at extended range. That's a good way to use up C-47s, particularly in thunderstorms. He may have also forgotten to take some off of training. That's another great way to lose planes, again, particularly in thunderstorms.

If the Allies come out with 3 lost CV's vs. 2 Jap CV's lost, that is a win in the long run.

sure...but since this a joint AAR...theres not alot of information to be had. But you can see the order of battle over the last 2 months there with my picture below. IMO i believe Tom is gonna need more forces to take India, as i'm pretty entrenched in the major cities.

quote:

actually the Allies (me) lost 3 CV's and japan (Tom) lost 2 CV's. Still a "win" in the long run, but in the short run i'll be severely hampered with only 5 CV's (3 american, 2 UK) versus 5 IJN fleet CV's, the Hiyo (wouldn't exactly call it a CV), and numerous smaller ones.

haha...forgot about football. Been too busy watching the Mets. However, regarding the Jets i'm lead to believe that everything is riding once again on Penningtons shoulder. So basically the Jets have the same odds of winning the super bowel as i have of winning this game by getting less than the 1:3 points in order to prevent autovictory in 1944 (currently its like 27000 pts to 7000)

Invasion forces have departed from Java for as yet classified destinations. Things will get exciting again in about 2-3 weeks.

In China the foot race continues with all Chinese troops in the South racing for Chungking. Currently China only holds Chungking, Chentu, Yunan, and Kunnming. 5K worth of Jap troops are in pursuit.

No real reason to:

1. Train C-47s
2. Move supplies in Oz/India due to rail lines

Must be New Calidonia area.

I am just glad these losses help offset my Sally Ops losses. The freakin' thinks must be made out of rice paper and chop sticks since I can't move them from the hanger to the runway without suffering an Op loss.

I usually come to this website first and check the AAR and other things. Then, it's off to my two NY Giants message boards to check what is going on there. I don't mind the Mets winning, as long as the "Evil Empire" doesn't win enough to make the playoffs, I will be happy in MLB.

It is nice to have occasional screen shots as I look at enough AAR's that I cannot always keep the current situations clear.

Make sure he Japs stay away from Karachi. Don't want another AAR complaining about the "Star Trek" effect.

I am stuck at Bombay facing 1-2 full stregth units and a bunch of tattered ones. If I can't dislodge them with most of my forces then 4-5 UK Divisons at Karachi should be able to hold on forever. I hope to just bottle him up there. Of course any units that get cut off and surrender before reaching Karachi will be a bonus!

Hate the Mets but hate the Yankees more. Philly still has a chance at the Wild Card so I haven't given up hope yet.

Looking forward to Seeing the Eagles without TO. Hopefully we can provide him with a career ending injury when he comes to town.

The questions are

1. Where will the landing(s) be?
2. Is the invasion of OZ still a possibility?

that would be one hell of a deception plan. Either way, i'm prepared for either type of invasion, so in the words of a forgotten senator "Bring it on"

here's my intel...

56th Brigade is loaded on AP,Turusima Maru moving to Trimcomalee
38th Division is loaded on AP,Hakozake Maru moving to Madras
48th Naval Guard Unit is loaded on AK,Kansai Maru moving to Madras

To do list:

Shoot captains of Turusima Maru, Hakozake Maru, and Kansai Maru along with commanders of 56th Brigade, 38th Division, and 48th Naval Guard unit.

So much for those people who say that Allied Sig Int is useless.
