Plus it's nice to see green dots on the main map, isn't it?

I'm looking at going straight in to Okinawa, no attempt at subterfuge.

The USA 31st ID was hardest hit, now with 131 AV, followed by the Aus 5th Div, now with 217 AV. A couple of armored units also came away limping. Three of the infantry divisions, all four tank destroyer Bns, and one Tank Bn have been placed in reserve to recover. Total AV at the moment is 1778.

We will allow several days, possibly as long as a week for recovery, while a few 4EB are tasked to bomb the base and keep fortifications from being rebuilt. Possibly the 31st ID will be pulled back to avoid losing large numbers of squads next time, but considering how much artillery this formation has on hand they might be left in place to bombard instead. Two Aus Bde and five Chinese Corps/Div totalling about 1,700 AV will be brought in for the next attack. The soon to be repatriated Chinese troops are our secret weapon and their appearance should cause panic, chaos, and stampeding among the enemy forces.

Meanwhile the exploitation drive on Pakhoi will seize that location about the time of the next attack at Lang Son. Support units to get the base running and building and three tank units will be brought in by small vessels from Haiphong. From there Kwangchowan will be taken by infantry while the armor cuts the main supply line to Lang Son if it still resists, or cuts the retreat of Imperial units if it doesn't. The 2EB at Hue will be moved to Hanoi and Haiphong, and the 4EB at Quinhon will be moved to Hue. In concert with fighter sweeps from Hanoi/Haiphong, from Hue they can close Canton airfield, which is a major enemy fighter and bomber bastion. From Hue they can also reach Kweilin, which presently scouts as having more than 180 fighters! These could be massed to oppose shipping into Pakhoi.

Sweeps of Samah and Manila met no opposition. Samah was repaired and aircraft were based there yesterday so today several groups of A-24G closed it, losing 6 to ground fire.

Our troops keep pouring into Probolinggo, though not on the scale of other theaters! Much of the Rgt from Ternate will begin unloading there tonight. The Rgt at Bandjermasin is loading on two APD convoys (landing craft convoys to follow) and will set off at once for Tjepoe. The Imperial position just west of Soerabaja is truly getting smashed from the air. Our Bn there is content to wait for friends and for other units to cut avenues of withdrawal currently open to the enemy.

Loading of supplies for Okinawa continues, including among a few of the convoys that I mistakenly thought had finished loading yesterday at the smaller port of Anatahan. This time will get the LST supply convoys fully loaded and in position. The subs are on their way and will be on station to oppose enemy interference. We have a rare day with solid recon on all of the first three targets.

Naha: 17 units; 54,160 troops; 511 guns; 179 AFV
Nago: 11 units; 32,280 troops; 205 guns; 151 AFV
Daito Shoto: 16 units; 27,740 troops; 306 guns; 199 AFV

Indochina.

Our subs identified yet another mine field at Merak. As before, this sub was not ordered to venture into that port and I think it was on the way to Colombo to withdraw. Obviously the Sunda Strait is on the list of narrow straits. Have to find a better route!

Half of our armour has caught up to the fleeing enemy north of Singora. They will wait until tomorrow when the rest of the armour arrives and perhaps one of the divisions too. BB King George V has arrived at Aden.

De-zombificaton of the jungles continues.

One unit was destroyed when our forces attacked the zombie campsite, but I don't know which one. We attack again tomorrow, then move to the adjacent hex and deal with that unit. Bad weather severely hampered air strikes on Lang Son resulting in no hits on the base and only entertainment for the troops targeted. It looks like 4 miles per day bearing down on Pakhoi, hopefully that will speed up during the second 1/2 of the 46 miles, which is a clear hex with a secondary road to that hex side. The first two divisions are at 24 miles, the other two at 20 and 16 miles.

Tjepoe is unoccupied. The rail line passing through might have accounted for the recon reports of troops in the recent past. One or both of the Imperial units west of Soerabaja are now moving into that city.

Two last convoys carrying field artillery units are still loading extra rounds at Anatahan. They've been ordered to forgo topping up supply and move to join the others. Tomorrow the smaller convoys will be combined, the current minimal escorts strengthened, and the whole show ordered to move out.

Indochina.

Status: offline 		Basically speaking a week of travel time. 26 hexes from the assembly point to Naha. Stopping one hex short means 25 plus a day. 25 hexes from the assembly point to the hex just short of Nago, which then entails a jog through another island base hex to get to Nago. The slowest are the LST, which I did use for some troops as noted earlier and many of which are loaded only with supply. They steam at 4 hexes per day, maybe sometimes 5, so they will be the limiting factor. I've tried to keep short range ships out so they don't slow down convoys by refueling.

There are so many subs ahead they just must be noticed. Will that trigger any alarm? I plan to order the B-29 strikes on the airfields to commence 3 - or probably 4 - days ahead of arrival so that the airfields are shut down before the fleet is within bomber range. The B-29 raids will raise the alarm but I'm figuring that naval search will have found the fleet by then. Amazingly, no known sightings thus far!

Ranges have been adjusted.

The Okinawa invasion fleet has been polished and is underway. Although none of the invasion fleet has been spotted so far as I know, the two large support convoys heading to Iwo Jima have been spotted. Very likely they are sufficient warning that we are on the move. Due to those convoys heading to Iwo Jima, there is the possibility that the other Bonins will be thought the targets. But more realistically, Okinawa is a super-obvious target, so the fact that those support convoys have been sighted must be regarded as the curtains rising on Act I. The B-29 groups are being ordered to hit their targets starting tomorrow. Groups at Saipan will strike the airfield at Nago, those at Tinian will strike Naha, and those at Guam will strike Amami Oshima. That gives us normal range to both bases on Okinawa, and extended range to Amami Oshima.

Indochina.

All units at Lang Son have reduced disruption, only one unit above 10%. A few are now on reserve to help boost morale. Chinese Army units at Hanoi are now all ready and will begin moving. call it four days moving with an attack on the 5th day from now.

Meanwhile, our divisions bearing down on Pakhoi are moving fast indeed, with the lead two at 40 miles and the others at 36 and 32 miles. At least two divisions should be there tomorrow and will attack the 1,600 troops at Pakhoi the following day.

The 2/9 will continue attacking, but these Imperial units will almost certainly retire into Soerabaja before more Allied firepower arrives. The ground truth revealed in this attack shows the devastating claims made by our striking air groups were not exaggerated.

Our P-47D25 group at Taytay more than made up for the dive bomber debacle yesterday. But the Empire was ready for our B-29 strikes.

Air losses (below) count 37 of the sky beasts turned into aluminum trash cans. Crikey! As discovered in other PBMs, in the game even B-29s really need escorts or sweeps. Size 2 Amami Oshima shows 3% damage + 21 fighters, Size 3 Nago shows 28% + 0 fighters, and size 4 Naha shows 15% + 9 fighters. 40 bombers at Naha and 27 bombers at Nago, none at Amami Oshima. Tomorrow all B-29 groups will concentrate on Naha. The 29 and 20 auxiliary types at Naha and Nago are presumed not to be kamikaze. Or is that wrong?

The subs are mostly in their patrol zones now for the Okinawa operation and several of them have been spotted. The convoys moved slightly better than expected with all convoys keeping pace, now 21 hexes from Naha. Kweilin has about 70 fewer fighters than yesterday and I presume they are repositioning to support Imperial forces on Okinawa.

Indochina. Notice that just SW of Kunming the Imperial units are beginning to withdraw.

You can more or less assume though that he knows now you're coming. What remains to be seen is whether or not he can move additional assets to defend those islands.

what is the latest raw intel data of spotted troops at Okinawa?

My guess is the attack will be anti-climatic and go off well. But it is only a guess. The ground combat may take quite a while...


This
quote:


Naha: 17 units; 54,160 troops; 511 guns; 179 AFV
Nago: 11 units; 32,280 troops; 205 guns; 151 AFV
Daito Shoto: 16 units; 27,740 troops; 306 guns; 199 AFV

I think is is still good enough. The guns might be a couple of dozen higher, but these figures float even with the best DL for several turns.

I think that Walter sees Okinawa as a prime target and it got a respectable chunk of the Empire's scarce engineers a long time ago. I figure minimum 7 fortification level at both bases. I will be slightly pleased if Nago is only level 6 and not really surprised, but I expect 7 there and at least 7 at Naha. How practical is 8 or 9 for the Empire? That's where I really expect fortifications at Naha.

So that will put the defense far above the offense when you consider terrain and the way AE slices attackers' AV until they start to overcome the defenders guns/artillery and so on.

Daito Shoto should be different. I expect lower fortifications, although level 6 would not surprise me. The required shock attack will also start things rolling, although that will be ugly. That's why I have the power of 3 USMC divisions (one in regiments form) plus the other stuff. I expect that to take at least a few days, maybe a couple of weeks. But then I can get PacAO onto Daito Shoto where I hope it will influence events on Okinawa.

Lots of AKE, fuel, and supply at Iwo Jima now to reload bombardment ships. The distance to Okinawa is a problem, but Daito Shoto will get priority until it falls and we can move AKE there.

It would be great to have those RN battleships in the Pacific right now!

Lowpe-

Your AV numbers don't match with what witpqs posted, right? Or am I missing something here.

If your numbers are right, sheesh i would have to agree that the Japanese look damn strong on Okinawa!

Interested in having this clarified for me so I can understand in better detail what force witpqs will be facing!

I didn't post AV numbers - I don't have them. I think he is estimating based on number of troops using a 30 to 1 rule of thumb.

Yeah, I think they are real strong! It will be a tough slog.

Usually when I see stacks with 15-17 LCUs or more a large percentage turn out to be base forces and engineers and such that contribute little to the overall AV in the hex.

Given the sizes of those stacks I presume you are not using stacking limits.

How, pray tell, does one go about taking down a level 6 fort with 1800 AV?

Seems you would need two weeks of daily naval bombardment to disable 50% or more of the squads before you could even consider hitting the beach.

Otherwise you would need about 5.5k AV to hit it with any chance of success.

And that's just one of the three targets.

Ok, my mistake. I read AFV, but thought AV. Hey, what is AFV?

But, yeah, from what Hans is saying, if there is that much AV there, Okinawa is going to be tough! Bloody!

Can't wait!
