Okay, I have set my general strategies for turn five. West Coast No IJN subs found this turn, I have begun to load supplies for PH in all 3 major west coast ports. They will take the southern route around his sub zone. Pearl Harbor Remains pretty shot up. I have shut down all fighters and bombers, (not like they could do anything if he came back) for morale boosting training. I will continue my ASW patrols as always (a sub found I just cant get to him until im sure Xargun continues north away from Pearl). Wake Sure wish he would take this so it would cut down on my temptation to reinforce it. Alaska Ordered a supply convoy to Anchorage to replace all the food and guns the 4th is taking to Dutch Harbor. China Nothing major here, he hit troops next to Nanchang with air, I will let him, resisting to urge to activate AVG just yet. I still am gathering airpower for that strategic air campaign. Burma I have loaded over 150K in fuel from Rangoon in one of the big transport groups, the second one left port empty for some bizarre reason, so I have ordered them back so they can grab all the oil. The third one is a day away or so. Im sure his Imperial Guards are headed north so I have to get this shipping out of here quickly. TF 1022 is headed for Andaman Island chocked full with the 44th Indian Brigade. In the past he likes to grab the place with sub commandos and set up an airfield to harrass my shipping. This turn it will be a fight. I bombed Bangkok last turn with some martins hitting his manpower and causing 5 fires. I will do that again until the martins tell me (under 50 morale) they need a day off. Not really expecting to do much more then force him to CAP Bangkok. Malaya The Singapore AF continues to fly as he still hasnt made a serious attempt at the airfield there. The evacuation of Alor Star should be completed this turn. I am moving up my Dutch Transports to begin to evacuate non-combat personell (base units) and the Aussies once he attacks them. Ideally I would like to move as much of the Brit/aussie stuff to Burma as I can. DEI Force Z refueled at Tiljilitjap this turn and is leaving for its run to Broome. I have consolidated 45 Martins at Soerbaja and are resting them, In the next day or two I will hit Balik with them. I continue to shuttle my P40s through DEI enroute to Burma. The first 3rd of the 24th arrived in Rangoon today. I hope it will be a nice surprise for him when he makes his move int Burma to be facing all the P40s from AVG AND the 24th out of PI. Australia Trying to decide where to base my main north Australian defense. Tradition says Darwin, but he usually bombs the hell out of that maybe west at Derby or Wyndom PM I need to save some PPs and start converting Aussie troops for the defense of this place. Just a few more squads to evac from PI. Noumea Im going to send the commandos to Guadalcanal, with some supplies. Not a bunch just enough to contest the place. They will depart from Pearl as soon as i can assemble enough submarines for the Op. PI The 34th flew out of Manilla today (P-35s), other then that not much different there.
