Yeah, I know that experience with fashion show/shops too. I've already divided division and ready to evacuate this unit - but as long as i have KB in the area invasion is out of the question. You may say that i'm meticulous - and you are probably right - but keeping this unit at GG will force Andy to plan invasion carefully. Which means he will set preparation for GG at least to two division. Quite a lot players forgeting about preparation points but this could be an edge between 2-1 and 0-1. All i need is well judging when i really must evacuate 5th division from GG and avoiding trap. As for his TF this were combat ships (DDs) so no PTs yet. Thanks for compliments - i was always interested in these details and i pay attention to them. Since my english sucks, this details are only hope that other players can learn something about the game (yes, rather than keeping secret for myself and bitching about bad design i'm ready to share my knowledge with JFB - although i keep some tricks just for myself. I'm good, but not THAT good) I've prepared more details for you but lots of action prevents me to post it.... Yes, Thayne was one of my favourites too. AFTER ACTION REPORTS FOR 03/23/43 CHINA Andy is pretty scared with Konichiwa-go and sent bombers on targets in China. Night Air attack on Kweiyang , at 41,35 Japanese aircraft no flights Allied aircraft B-24D Liberator x 4 Japanese aircraft losses No Japanese losses Allied aircraft losses B-24D Liberator: 1 damaged Japanese ground losses: 9 casualties reported Guns lost 1 Airbase hits 1 Aircraft Attacking: 4 x B-24D Liberator bombing at 7000 feet My Samurai's are not willing to surrender just because they met few Corsairs! Banzai! Suprisingly, AVG scored two or three kills which means his Corsairs were defeat in A2A. Eight Corsairs for 8 Tojos and one Tony aren't bad trade! Day Air attack on Kunming , at 39,33 Japanese aircraft Ki-44-IIb Tojo x 52 Ki-61 KAIc Tony x 72 Ki-21 Sally x 27 Ki-49 Helen x 59 Ki-46-III Dinah x 5 Allied aircraft F4U-1 Corsair x 7 P-40E Warhawk x 13 P-38G Lightning x 6 I-153c x 3 Japanese aircraft losses Ki-44-IIb Tojo: 8 destroyed, 1 damaged Ki-61 KAIc Tony: 1 damaged Allied aircraft losses F4U-1 Corsair: 8 destroyed P-40E Warhawk: 10 destroyed P-38G Lightning: 6 destroyed I-153c: 2 destroyed Allied ground losses: 136 casualties reported Airbase hits 3 Airbase supply hits 2 Runway hits 54 at 6000 feet B-17 visited Kweiyang during day phase - i'm more than sure he is glad when i've said him "no, you can attack with heavies my bases in China" few months ago. He was generous and offer me "no heavies will attack targets in China" after i accept house roule no attack on Chengtu and Chungking. But i felt it would't be fair to restrict him from doing that. One Tony Sentai is set at 50 % CAP. Day Air attack on Kweiyang , at 41,35 Japanese aircraft no flights Allied aircraft B-17E Fortress x 9 Japanese aircraft losses Ki-46-III Dinah: 1 destroyed Allied aircraft losses B-17E Fortress: 9 damaged Japanese ground losses: 49 casualties reported Airbase hits 4 Airbase supply hits 1 Runway hits 8 Aircraft Attacking: 6 x B-17E Fortress bombing at 7000 feet 3 x B-17E Fortress bombing at 7000 feet And, that wasn't all. I do not know if i pissed him when i said "you are predictable" or he is just scared about Kunming and he run into mistakes. But, honestly, i don't care for that Day Air attack on Chungking , at 43,32 Japanese aircraft Ki-61 KAIc Tony x 25 Ki-21 Sally x 94 Allied aircraft no flights Japanese aircraft losses Ki-21 Sally: 1 destroyed, 7 damaged Allied aircraft losses P-38G Lightning: 7 destroyed Boomerang II: 5 destroyed P-40E Warhawk: 4 destroyed Allied ground losses: 379 casualties reported Guns lost 1 Airbase hits 3 Airbase supply hits 1 Runway hits 33 at 6000 feet Quite a lot destroyed planes on the ground - this time AF wasn't operational and he paid for gambling. Second air strike was worse, my LBA have less experienced crew and attacked at higher attitude... Day Air attack on Chungking , at 43,32 Japanese aircraft A6M2 Zero x 27 Ki-21 Sally x 28 Ki-49 Helen x 36 Ki-46-III Dinah x 6 Allied aircraft no flights Japanese aircraft losses Ki-21 Sally: 4 damaged Ki-49 Helen: 5 damaged Allied aircraft losses Boomerang II: 1 destroyed Allied ground losses: 31 casualties reported Airbase hits 1 Runway hits 17 at 12000 feet I can expect more 4E bombers tomorrow - if Kunming falls it will cause a collapse of Chinese theatre. But the funny thing is that my bombers can not attack his ground units while he can do it! (rule says that bombers have smaller chance to attack enemy ground units if they are in same hex with friendly units) - i smell another anti-Jap conspiracy! Day Air attack on 22nd Division, at 39,33 Allied aircraft Wellington III x 6 B-17E Fortress x 12 B-24D Liberator x 8 IL-4c x 6 Allied aircraft losses B-17E Fortress: 1 damaged Japanese ground losses: 86 casualties reported Guns lost 3 at 7000 feet General Pauk decided to rest his troops because our recon says no reinforcements available for Kunming defenders in next three days... Well, i have better leaders and my troops should rest faster than enemy. But, i'm not pretending that i'm ground combat guru... Ground combat at Kunming Japanese Bombardment attack Attacking force 12757 troops, 128 guns, 0 vehicles, Assault Value = 2711 Defending force 81645 troops, 6 guns, 0 vehicles, Assault Value = 2063 PACIFIC/PNG KB wasnt spoted today so he doesn't know I'm so close to him. My plan is to move closer (6 hex) to PM and send DD division to deal with 2 remaining PTs and CA division to bombard PM. After that, fast BB will finish the job (i hope). Yes i'm risking KB pilots if he move Liberators to PM (he have Lightings in PM too) but i do not want to have another fight with Corsairs! Lets see who did better plans! Grrrr.... i run out of the luck with PT boats. Enemy was suprised but only 2 DDs opens fire on enemy (aggresive commander!)while PTs fired just two torps - 50 % rate! Minekaze class DD probably is not going to make it.... Night Time Surface Combat, near Nauru Island at 79,91 Japanese Ships CL Kuma DD Hatsuyuki DD Mutsuki DD Hakaze, Torpedo hits 1, on fire, heavy damage DD Yakaze DD Kuri DD Manazuru Allied Ships PT PT-146 PT PT-147, Shell hits 21, and is sunk PT PT-148 PT PT-149 PT PT-150 PT PT-151, Shell hits 2, and is sunk PT PT-152 PT PT-153 PT PT-154 PT PT-155 PT PT-156 PT PT-157 DD Kuri didn't get any exp point (66/71) while Yakaze is awarded with one and now is 74/75. BURMA Nice way to train his pilots - keep it on, Andy Day Air attack on Mandalay , at 33,30 Allied aircraft Boomerang II x 5 Allied aircraft losses Boomerang II: 1 destroyed, 3 damaged Aircraft Attacking: 4 x Boomerang II bombing at 2000 feet
