31st August -42 _____________________________________________________________________________ Only got the replay and CR so you will have to make due without screens for now. ------------------------ NORPAC/WC ------------------------ Sometimes the game just conspires against you. This was certainly such a day. I have 440 Fighters set to sweep Coal Harbor. Due to range and stacking issues I couldn´t send them from the same airfield as the bombers flying from Seattle. So to minimize the risk of sweeps raining in while bombers flew...I divided my fighters to 3 different airfields. Vancouver, Oak Harbor and Bremerton (if memory serves me right). Of course they ALL 3 rain in except Seattle. As I havn´t the turn file its hard to predict the damage but its not looking good. quote:
Morning Air attack on Coal Harbour , at 204,49 Weather in hex: Moderate rain Raid detected at 40 NM, estimated altitude 16,000 feet. Estimated time to target is 12 minutes Japanese aircraft A6M2 Zero x 23 A6M5 Zero x 8 Ki-44-IIa Tojo x 30 Allied aircraft B-17E Fortress x 50 B-26 Marauder x 11 Japanese aircraft losses A6M2 Zero: 1 destroyed, 4 damaged A6M2 Zero: 2 destroyed on ground G3M2 Nell: 1 destroyed on ground G4M1 Betty: 1 destroyed on ground Allied aircraft losses B-17E Fortress: 2 destroyed, 22 damaged B-26 Marauder: 3 destroyed, 2 damaged This was followed by 4 smaller raids. Hard to predict losses but it will be ugly. Do I need to mention weather forecast was "clear"... Not a happy camper right now. Yuck. ------------------------ China ------------------------ Bad news continue to pile on here. I really don´t know why I even try to defend. I´m probably better off just running back to Chungking or the mountains. quote:
Ground combat at 75,50 (near Kweiyang) Japanese Deliberate attack Attacking force 37412 troops, 509 guns, 1096 vehicles, Assault Value = 1205 Defending force 28794 troops, 165 guns, 0 vehicles, Assault Value = 417 Japanese adjusted assault: 941 Allied adjusted defense: 307 Japanese assault odds: 3 to 1 Combat modifiers Defender: terrain(+), experience(-), supply(-) Attacker: Japanese ground losses: 178 casualties reported Squads: 0 destroyed, 17 disabled Non Combat: 0 destroyed, 14 disabled Engineers: 0 destroyed, 0 disabled Vehicles lost 22 (1 destroyed, 21 disabled) Allied ground losses: 11326 casualties reported Squads: 378 destroyed, 5 disabled Non Combat: 280 destroyed, 39 disabled Engineers: 26 destroyed, 2 disabled Guns lost 23 (20 destroyed, 3 disabled) Units retreated 5 ------------------------ India ------------------------ Good news here though. quote:
Ground combat at Dacca (56,38) Allied Deliberate attack Attacking force 84252 troops, 1526 guns, 923 vehicles, Assault Value = 2546 Defending force 48012 troops, 569 guns, 234 vehicles, Assault Value = 1271 Allied adjusted assault: 1160 Japanese adjusted defense: 1535 Allied assault odds: 1 to 2 (fort level 3) Combat modifiers Defender: preparation(-) Attacker: Japanese ground losses: 2226 casualties reported Squads: 7 destroyed, 207 disabled Non Combat: 2 destroyed, 64 disabled Engineers: 0 destroyed, 36 disabled Guns lost 77 (5 destroyed, 72 disabled) Allied ground losses: 957 casualties reported Squads: 10 destroyed, 213 disabled Non Combat: 1 destroyed, 22 disabled Engineers: 0 destroyed, 23 disabled Guns lost 44 (1 destroyed, 43 disabled) Vehicles lost 7 (1 destroyed, 6 disabled) My guys were pretty high FAT/DIS before the attack. So this is an excellent result considering Japanese troops were well rested and dug in behind forts. Have to wait for the turn until I know if another attack is doable. Jeff is trying to get the hell out so this was probably my only chance. But with the abandonment of Dacca the Japanese Indian expedition is over.
