here's the reason why we attacked Lae's airfield recently, I am really glad that CF move his fighters out due to the overpowered effect of my P-38 strato sweeps... amazingly enough he still moved in his convoy though, we have several squadrons of USMC dive bombers plus USAAAF Marauders set to low nav attack at Port Moresby... weather is a little problematic today though...

our bombers come in completely split up, many failed to locate the TF completely... enemy Cap over Lae would have caused havoc within our strikes... I think CF would have been better off to fly in his fighters the day his convoy is supposed to arrive...

now that was truly an interesting combat too... we spotted this unit attempting to cross the river North of Sian and thought it would just be a feint and the unit would be stopped before it crosses the river as it would be suizide to attack into our stack of Chinese Corps that sit in rough terrain but CF sent his single division across the river nevertheless... the result is a totally trashed IJA div and I am sure we will kick the unit back across the river tomorrow causing horrible losses within the enemy div for literally no losses on our side...
the way Cuttlefish operates his IJA combat units in Northern China they are easily handled by my Chinese hordes...

Defeated Japanese Units Retreating!
here comes the next attack by the Chinese Army attacking at Kienko, as expected the enemy is kicked out and forced to retreat over the river... our attack does some nice damage, these two units literally got no combat power left and we will now pursue them shock attacking over the river in three turns... our bombers from Chungking will take make sure the enemy will be slowed down so we catch them with our shock attack...
means within a week we will completely trash two strong IJA divs plus a bgd in Northern China for minimal losses within the Chinese (speaking about destroyed squads/equipment - really don't care about a couple of hundred disabled squads spread out over a dozen units)... as it stands now, the Northern China adventure turns out badly for the Japanese...

RE: Continental Clash - Cuttlefish (J) vs castor troy (A) - 
one Mitchell is claimed by flak fire... 
quite nice of him to do so... what really wonders me though is why did he send an artillery rgt together with that bgd to take an empty unimportant base in Northern China when he doesn't send any support units or artillery with his invasion of Java? 
... unfortunately, this will never ever be changed, not even tried to so we will go on hoping to have fighters that can reach higher than the enemy...
