Status: offline 		Even though the carriers are steaming north the TF's were still in range of my Zeros and there was a strike carried out even though I didn't order it. That may mean that I need to remove Pearl as the target assigned to my KB aircraft.

Status: offline 		I discovered an Allied TF and sent one of my SCTF's to the path of it so that it might be intercepted and there was a night-time combat when I ran into it. I sank two TK's and damaged a lot of ships and didn't get a scratch on any of my ships. The perfect intercept.

Status: offline 		Your sweepers should be much higher than his CAP. If you also put a small (10%) LRCAP at the base, you will increase the enemy OPs losses. Those LRCAP fighters don't have to be the best.

I'll try that. Thank you very much. I'm learning a lot from you guys; thanks all of you.

Status: offline 		Turn both ARM and VEH back on. You will need massive stockpiles of both for the new units coming in. You will also need the points for your upgrades.

Status: offline 		You will also have to build the rest of the armoured division with your stored vehicle points. Some of the units are already in, the rest are reinforcements. Other divisions form when the mixed brigades get another unit. The depot divisions that come in much later also need the points. So a good stockpile does not hurt.

Status: offline 		Brian and I have restarted with the newest version of BTS-L and he's the Japs and I'm the Allies and he has sent me his turn one moves and I'm in the throes of doing my turn one moves and I see in the Industry dialog that there's no VEH or ARM points at game start. I guess that's normal.

Status: offline 		I think I may have found a tiny problem with the scenario...there don't seem to be any ARM or VEH factories. Do the Allies just have none for a good reason. Am I coming to this Allied side as a former Jap side player and don't know that this is normal?

Status: offline 		Brian and I have just entered March '42 and here's a list of all the Allied ships he has sunk so far. Only one SS I noticed and it was sunk by a mine. He's doing really well. He just captured Palembang. Singapore and Clark Field will fall any day now. I still own Manila but he's bombing it every day. Great game so far.

Status: offline 		Though that is a very long list I would like to see your list of his ships that might have been sunk and since you didn't emntion it am I safe to assume Bataan is still in your hands?

Here's the current situation in the PI. It appears that Brian has opted to march south one city at a time and right now he's working on Clark Field. He's doing all kinds of bombing and my guys are getting a higher and higher Disruption level. More than one Allied unit is completely out of supply. The Jap ground attacks have slaken off lately so he's probably letting them rest a bit before the effort restarts.

Singapore
Palembang has fallen but I still hold Singapore. But 2/3 of the Singapore defenders are completely out of supply, disruption levels are high and morale is sinking. It's a foregone conclusion that Singapore will fall soon. I expect Brian to clear out Sumatra and clear out Java next.
