Actually, other than the loss of the carriers, that might be a fight that I want as the Allies.

Hobart is good defensive terrain and if he can keep it supplied, there is a good chance for bleeding those units and at least keeping you focused at the end of a long logistical chain.

Will grant that point, however, he will be completely cutoff from supply. Since I was using this location as a jumping off point for taking New Zealand I am in very good shape with supply and troops. Fuel is a little dicey but should be OK once I have sunk about 100 more Allied ships.

If the Allies got 100k of supply perhaps it will hold, but...how long??

Anyway, if the allied player quit, I would be happy to follow the game. It's really interesting!!

August 29, 1942

USS Saratoga has tried desperately to escape the Japanese Sea Eagles over the last three days. Day ONE saw a pair of bombs hit her with an Ammo Storage Explosion. Day TWO saw six more bombs and a Fuel Explosion occur. Now, limping along for home with 2 DDs, she is found at a range of less then 100 miles from 3 Japanese CVs. A FINAL Strike of 23 Zero and 48 Val is launched. Both DDs take 3-4 hits and sink. Their charge takes EIGHTEEN bombs and rolls over under the joyous eyes of the Nipponese pilots.

Allied Losses for the Day:
CV Saratoga, CL Phoenix, 8 DDs, 6 AP, and 3 AK with nearly two dozen more damaged

All this carnage is really impressive, you should rename your AAR "AFB worst nightmare"

your opponent is very brave to not surrender and als... a little masochist

September 5, 1942

Another day brings battle (massacre) for shipping at Hobart. A two BB Bombardment TF swings into Hobart and battles its way through PT Boats, a DD, does its bombardment of the AF--Pt (destroying 11 planes and doing 445 Casualties), and moves away only to run into 3 AP and 2 AK attempting to unload their cargo. Suffice it to say these wessels are no more...

Total KNOWN Losses for the Allies in this Operation:
CV: Saratoga and Wasp
CVE: Hammondsport and Long Island
CA: Quincy
CL: Phoenix and Detroit
DD: 21
AK: 22
AP: 23
AV: 1
PT: 10

GOODNESS!

September 7, 1942

The last organized resistance on the continent of Australia ends when the 3rd Inf Div and a batch of Base Forces surrender to the first Japanese Attack at Alice Springs. The campaign has taken about 8-10 weeks longer then I planned (it is, after all, a BIG place!) but it has been magnificent. The Victory Point tally is now 5-1 in favor of Dai Nippon.

BANZAI!

September 8, 1942

Just another day at the office:

1. A STF sinks AP President Polk and an AK.

2. The KB launches 42 Z, 41 V, and 42 K sinking 5 AP and an AK near New Zealand. Another couple of AKs are seriously hit and left in sinking condition.
