Status: offline 		we are currently in 27.1.1942 with our game, flipping 3-4 turns a day so I'm waaay behind with my AAR.
All I can tell you is that this game is total slaughter of our little digital men. My opponent is incredibly aggressive and so am I.
Don't know how far will this game go but it sure is fun!

As KB is returning to rearm and refuel to Kwajalein, it’s air-groups are practicing ASW warfare. I’ll try to work them up to at least skill 50 so they can be put into good use in shallow waters around Borneo where Dutch subs are lurking and giving us pain. Truk is expanding to port lvl 7, needed for our Battleships rearmament needs. Our subs are positioned around Hawaii and West Coast but also waiting beneath several US island ports, waiting for US garrisons to arrive.

CENT.PAC. AREA

No noteworthy events today.

PI AREA:

We’ve arranged for dozen of AMc’s to try and de-mine Bataan straits. Idea is to position 3 AKEs in Batangas and conduct daily bombardments of Bataan but for that to work, we’ll need that area at least partially de-mined. Problem is, artillery in Bataan is simply murderous:

TF 308 encounters mine field at Bataan (78,77) - Coastal Guns Fire Back!

15 Coastal gun shots fired in defense.

Japanese Ships
AMc Toroshima Maru, Shell hits 9, on fire, heavy damage
AMc Kaiyo Maru #1, Shell hits 6, heavy fires, heavy damage
AMc Hinode Maru #17, Shell hits 9, heavy fires, heavy damage
AMc Choun Maru #7, Shell hits 8, on fire, heavy damage

Our bombing of Cagayan continues with one B17 bagged this time:

Morning Air attack on Cagayan , at 79,89

Weather in hex: Partial cloud

Raid spotted at 16 NM, estimated altitude 6,000 feet.

Our troops that landed in Lingayen couple of days ago, and received a grubbing while doing so, managed to force-march to Clark Field, DA it and take it over! It helped that Allies have withdrawn from Clark towards Bataan but we are glad it worked out this way. Now we’ll send bunch of engineers to repair the airfield and put it into operation. Manila is next!

There is no major damage so it will have to sped few weeks in repair yards of Pearl to be OK but anyway it’s great news for us. We’ve decided to split KB in two parts, fast group consisting of Shokaku, Zuikaku, Hiryu and Soryu and fast BBs Kongo, Haruna, Hiei and Kirishima is setting towards Truk and from there to DEI where it will hunt for subs and aid our troops in capture of remaining bases, just like it did at Wake. Our slow CVs Kaga and Akagi, together with CVLs will create another group which will protect Central Pacific area.
