Walter has been clear that things are extremely bleak for the Empire. At this point it's about seeing how he can arrange defense of the Home Islands.

That is fine as well, and props to him for not giving up. It's entertaining :)

China west. Now moving on the zombies near Nanyang. Also now moving on Sian, where the first unit will emerge from the forest to the W tomorrow and attack - alone - the following day. The day after that two units will shock attack across the river on the road from the NW. I'm hoping that the two day attack process will make the shock attack both less painful for us and more effective against the defenders.

Philippines. Increased air ops against the defenders at Manila, and pretty good recovery by our troops there. The units withdrawing still need to do so and the rest need time too. (Yesterday's picture, sorry.)

Home Islands west. More night strikes on our fleet. Our night fighters many a number of intercepts and took down several, as did flak. Weather helped to hide our ships too, which all escaped without harm. The fleet is pulling back from Shikoku to replenish for the next two invasions (Saishu To and Kumamoto). Some of the surface combat TF ships are just beaten up and need repairs.

Recon of Kumamoto is showing 60,860 troops, 550 guns, and 489 AFV. We are going to have to hit that place hard from the sea and the air for the forces assigned to take it without shattering themselves. It is Clear terrain.

Osaka/Kyoto. More B-29B raids. Weather was bad and many strayed but some found the mark. The B-29B crews are showing fatigue and will stand down.

There is lots of very effective flak reaching 10,000 ft over Manila, compared to now none whatsoever over Shanghai. I figure that supply (-) at Manila was partial - just for one or more units - but nothing like the whole magilla. So with Urban Heavy (I think it is) and some good fortifications I guess we still have our work cut out for us. There are lots of medium bombers plus the Australian B-24 groups hitting them to chew up supply and chip away at the troops.

You do realize that MacArthur did it with "severe restrictions on Artillery and Air power attacks"


Well at least till mid February - then he opened up the pandora box.


Since I deem your campaign to be superior to MacArthur's in every way I hope you will save all the historic buildings of Manila..

China west. Tomorrow the Chinese 66th Corps will make a solo deliberate assault at Sian with two squdrons on B-25D in support. The following day two other LCU will make a river-crossing shock attack that I hope will be aided by the attack tomorrow.

China frontier. Continued attacks against our valiant TD Bn were not intercepted but still did no permanent damage. They continue moving. USA Rangers have cut off the plains zombies' forward movement and two aormored units are moving in from the flanks.

Home Islands west. Tomorrow the Kumamoto invaders farthest from the objective will begin loading. We have even more ships heading for the yard at Hong Kong do wear and tear and minor and not so minor battle damage. The first 3 divisions have reached Matsuyama and the fourth will arrive tomorrow. The armor and artillery is lagging far behind on that stupid trail. Rather than waiting, once all 4 divisions are in place they will attack at once.

Air losses. Matsuyama is really tough on aircraft flying at 5,000 ft, and they only have 189 guns!
