Two of the three TFs have been spotted now. Here is where AdmSpraunce must make a decision take them on or let them go by. I hope he gives it a try with some surface ships.

We need the target practice.

My air units are shot, I am having great trouble getting new pilots out of Machukuo to refill my loses. I have been moving unit and disbanding the fragments. roll on patch 2, the problem is that at the rate we are playing turns we will be in 43 before it arrives.

Today 2:9 Bad day in china

Sub operations have been killing me. The japanese ASW is hopeless even with the best commanders assigned the allies just seem to blow through. They slip into port sink a ship and leave while the ASW just sit there. While at least 1 of my subs gets attacked and damaged per day. I have a lot of subs returning for repair, I would say 1/3 of my subs are in transit at any time.

I know there are some changes coming in patch 2, but I just cant seem to lose this felling that when the dud rate is removed in 43 the sinking rate will sky rocket.

looking at the numbers below and the sinkings list above. 74 ships sunk by subs already at 15% hit rate. If we double this to match the rate the japanese are getting 30%. I could lose 148 ships in the first 6 months of 43 just to subs. That is almost the entire convoy system I have running in the home islands at the moment.

I don't think we will ever see a japanese player get a draw or win against an allied player in PBEM. I think even the worst allied play can win before the end of 44. I will put it right here AdmSpruance will finish me off before june 44. So far his playing style has been very controlled I hope my two TF raids have made him rethink some of his plans. The next big fight is going to be java in the next month and when I move my ships for this attack I expect him to go after lunga.

WooHoo my subs rock CV Formidable and CA Exeter both damaged. If the report is correct CA Exeter has sunk. There is still about ten days before my invasion of Java Starts. I have spotted major naval forces around the bottom end of Java, I think AdmSpraunce is going to try and hit my invasion force as hard as he can when they show up.

AdmSprunce has started his recon efforts into the canel area I expect to see this for the next month before he comes calling. Time to start moving in my LBA forces to meet his landings. I also intend on flooding the area with subs as well.

AdmSpraunce was stung today by his airforce running off to attack its own targets. I think he was going after the landing forces at Bandjermasin. The problem was that his search spotted CVL Shoho coming into Singapore. With singapore being the same range his bombers went after the bigger target and ran right into Singapores CAP. Ouch!!!

Oh also 2 move torpedo hits on CV Formidable this should put her out of action for the coming fight or can I hope for her to sink. Would be good but with allied damage control chances are slim.
