thanks for the generous offer! we may take you up on that, though there is still much being ...

<t> Hey Yamaguchi,<br/>
<br/>
To be honest, I don't think it's a particularly wise deployment. He's blowing up cargo ships and hammering an empty airfield, but perhaps there's a larger plan I'm not seeing.<br/>

The differences are interesting, I think you are wise not to spend many ...

<r> This is the longest I can recall going without a turn from one of my two games in awhile, guess that's a sign to do the AAR!<br/>

The same menagerie of cruisers returns to Calcutta for a second night. I guess he's got enough AKEs at Chittagong ...

Sub attacks between Hokkaido and Sakhalin continue, five today, although only one hits with a couple shells. He appears to have at least one dedicated ASW TF operating here now. So that's at least some resources ...

We score another xAK kill off Hokkaido, USN sub for once.<br/>

An RAF night raid on Diamond Harbour nets ~10 a/c on the ground.<br/>

We clash over the rail line to Kalgoorlie 1 hex ESE of the base, breaking about even with my LRCAP taking ...

Quiet turn.<br/>

The French sub Le Heros gets another xAK off Hokkaido. I don't think I'm probably doing enough to disrupt his economy at this early stage, but I hope this is frustrating and will divert assets that he might otherwise use ...

I've got the bulk of my air power in the Indian theater based at Howrah now that Calcutta is getting hit by cruisers on a semi-nightly basis. He catches on and several raids result in 10 a/c destroyed on the ground and many damaged. I move them ...

<r> I thought very hard (not 3 weeks, I'm just bad at updating my AAR)about pulling out of Kalgoorlie. This feels like about the last chance before he really closes in. He can probably get the airfield closed if he really focuses, as well as cut the rail line. I have nearly 400k supplies stockpiled ...

Bataan falls, ending resistance on Luzon.<br/>
He also takes care of Ledo, which is behind his line in India.<br/>

Good weather at Kalgoorlie today and we are hit hard, significant damage to the airfield and 5 planes destroyed with our ...

We just lost all our carriers in a big CV battle in the Aleutians, which is why his AAR is suddenly resurrected I assume. Now we have two divisions stranded at Adak with no particularly good way to evac, so not exactly great. At least we took Baker I. while the KB was distracted?

Darwin finally gets some attention, bombardment by 4 IJN CAs. There's not a lot there for him to hit. With the lack of overland supply there's not a ...

In India he starts bombing Asansol. I begin pulling out most of ground units, I don't see much value in fighting for an open hex when there will still be two other railway supply routes into Calcutta even if I lose it. I do move in some AA units to pick ...

<r> We're still clicking off the turns at a 2+/day pace, hard to keep up the AAR and maintain that thought. It's funny sometimes I just want to do the AAR and muse but I know he is (or maybe was) a big AAR reader, so if I post while I have the turn I feel like it kind of hurts my strat of pushing ...

The one theater where the Japanese have made no incursions to date is the North Pacific. A couple weeks ago I figured it was far enough along that I should start exploiting it. I've moved a sub tender forward to Dutch Harbor and set up some small convoys ...

Pretty quiet turn...<br/>
His bombers over Kalgoorlie are now flying at 15,000 feet, with rain in the area almost completely ineffective and our AAA still gets one.<br/>
<br/>
RAF continues hitting his retreating units, he's got bombers in action ...

<r> We're really moving through turns quickly now. With the key points defined there's a lot less to check. It's also part of my strategy to prioritize quick turns over being detailed. With my navy in such poor shape my options are limited, I think getting him turns quickly will play into some of ...

I have been trying to get a RAN/RN SCTF into position to make a run at the convoys unloading at Perth but he's got his air search set up well and a couple Netty strikes sink the CL Mauritius. I don't think there's a way to do this plan without ...

<t> Did you deploy any US Army units to India or just used the Brits and Indian troops?<br/>

Have you noticed that your flak is particularly effective against Japanese air? My opponent has started getting pretty frustrated with the Allied DBB flak in my Catfish game, would have thought CT ...
