Looking at jap production, noted some bases below 20000 supply.

Most bases should be below 20,000 supply. And even if you want to be over 20,000, at many locations it will never get there unless it is a port
you can dump supply into by ship. To grow industry reliably, you should have over 10,000 plus 1000 for each different industry you want to
grow. To engage in effective construction, I find twice the requirements of units at the base plus 2000 points perfectly adequate. Somewhere
around this value also planes become eligible to use drop tanks.

The Great Raid continues, with an attack on Canton Island!

The Great Escape, or The Second Battle of the Malacca Strait
continues, with many surface, air and submarine engagements.
The slaughter of the laden ships headed North out of Singapore
continues. However, fast transports successfully escaped
Southward, engaging an enemy patrol squadron along the way.
The theory that giving warships troop capacity would allow
fast transports to work turns out to be true - so we will complete
that process for all warships (except those not allowed to
be fast transports).

Submarines continue to be a plague to both sides. But some
ASW ships, in spite of early and relatively ineffective weapons,
are starting to score regularly. An enemy sub boldly sailed right
into Kwajalein - and sank a tanker - but maybe doesn't like what
happened to it - even if it did manage to miss the mines laid there.

Where is the naval gunfire support they said we would have?

Sitting in port, forgotten, and having a lot more fun on liberty
than if they had done their job!

note the red impassible hexes in china.

More precisely, impassable hexsides.

These represent the channeling of movment by the Yangtze Gorge - you can
move along the gorge (there are trails where there are not roads) but you cannot
cross it!

China north central plain.

As Japanese flag symbols on locations make clear, the rail link from North China to
Wuhan is now under Japanese control. Just off the bottom of the screenshot,
Japan is driving West along the RR from Shanghai to the link up with the North-South
line, just visible one hex SW of Changsha. From here on South, however, is rough
country, and it may not be so easy to sieze the line all the way to Indochina.

What happened to an allied TF. Why is the Marblehead all by herself?

The a24 seems to be a good DB, but the pilots need exp in the 60s to get a lot of hits.

She had problems with ops points at Batavia - refueling upon entry - she could not keep up with Western Force when they left -
several days ago. So she led her own force - joined by two DD. The main body was looking for trouble, hunting invasion
transports related to Palembang - but failed to make contact. Marblehead went direct to Singapore to meet them - and did.
She and her consorts got hung up loading troops to evacuate - and elected to run North instead of South like the rest - who
departed a day earlier. But she got hurt on the way - and stopped at Benkolis Island - dropping her troops - now trapped
at an isolated point near Sumatra. She hid out a while, repairing damage, and was trying to escape - too badly damaged to
attempt to carry troops.

FYI - Repulse - long thought sunk (only 94% sunk on the first day) - did escape Singapore - and dared to try to take
HQ troops with her. This probably was a mitake - but they eventually did survive to reach Batavia - some are still offloading
today. But in general it is unwise to carry troops if the ship is likely to sink!

Lacking troops and air units with experience to choose, the Aussies send in anyone up
to strength! Like Stalin, the Aussie commander (me) figures that combat will give them
experience!

A 'quiet day' - a new Japanese invasion axis appeared today - from the East -
aimed at the West end of New Guinea. Together with attacks on/near Tarakan
by light airborne troops for two days, this may indicate a new offensive is beginning.
Otherwise the main event of the day was a major Japanese transport and warship force arriving at Palembang - met by many Allied bomber attacks out of Batavia.
