<r> Surprise, Surprise. Terje invaded Mili while the Empire of Japan concentrated everything on the campaign for India. Unfortunately the Marshall Islands had no Air HQ and almost none AV support. These units were shifted towards Fiji some weeks ago to support the operation against Suva.<br/>

<r> Hey Larry,<br/>
<br/>
your Fuel level in Japan is decreasing with around 8k every day. That means in around 75 days your reserves will be gone and some HI factories will stop producing. This is a real critical situation. Your oil reserves are looking good but are decreasing too fast. The ...

Regarding the 'war', I think you did the right decision with the ongoing offensive, you must keep him honest. The Allies master plan of defence looks like a bit too static, basically some reinforced strongpoints, but perhaps you could try to ...

<r> Today the campaign for India has started! Terje is blocking the access to India at Chittagong with a strong fortress (80k men, 1000 afv). 3 BBs hit the fortress Chittagong hard. I expect that Terje will pull back his fighters to Calcutta. After that he can only provide LRCAP for Chittagong. The ...

<r> Almost 1.5h months gone since my last AAR update. It's really time to give a complete overview. The Game is still running with approx. 1 turn the day. Terje is a really reliable opponent!<br/>
<br/>
The economic situation is "light and shadow". 254 oil centers (141 Soerabaja, 24 Medan, 66 Miri ...

<t> Hey Terje,<br/>
<br/>
the German Panzer troops would say something like "Die Russen im offenen Gelände ohne Deckung?! Angriff!". I've never heard anybody speaking about "Russkies". [:D]<br/>
Awesome job! You have almost reached the historical front lines. You have still the offensive on your ...

<r> Again I was a bit lazy with forum updates. The game has moved forward and we're now at end of May.<br/>
<br/>
The overall situation is looking good for the Empire of Japan. In China the "Big Road" was cleared and the next targets are Kunming, Chengtu and Chungking. In Burma Terje tried to test ...

<r> The game progressed with the usual speed of 1 turn the day and we now reached May 1942.<br/>
<br/>
There is light and shadow in our game. The IJA is marching across China and seems to be unstoppable. The Changsha triangle is cleared and the "Big Road" will soon be complete in Japanese hands ...

Great job Terje! [&o] I hope you can seal the pocket! That's a pocket every Axis player is dreaming of.

The Southern Army HQ is now somewhat afraid about Allied land tactics and capabilities. More units are requested to strengthen the Burma defense. [;)]

<r> The IJA achieved a great victory in China. Changsha has fallen after the second attack and over 1k of Chinese combat squads were destroyed. Only a few Japanese combat squads were lost. The main part of the IJA in China will try to clear the area around Changsha (especially the fortress Hengyang ...

<r> The situation around Fiji and Pago Pago is heating up every turn. Both sides are building up their bases. The Surface Combat TFs are ruling the area because the carriers are away for repair and most air fields are too small for bomber use. Two heavy Japanese SC TFs jumped directly into 2 Allied ...

Thanks, I will remember that. <br/>
Reaction range is useful when want carrier battle. But it can be also dangerous.<br/>
Doses TF will react if i will give them reaction range 0? <br/>

So far i newer use reaction range for CV TF. Only ...

<r> Again I was a bit lazy with AAR updates. Here is the overview over the last week.<br/>
<br/>
Our carrier clash ended in 2 vs 2 lost carriers. Kaga and Soryu in exchange for Saragota and Yorktown (sunk 3 turns later because of heavy damages). One sub fired some torps at Lexington but missed it ...

<r> Hey koniu,<br/>
<br/>
good job with the Kongo and good news about KI-45 effectiveness. [:)] You saved all your capital ships while destroying many allied capital ships, great job. [&o]<br/>
<br/>
Thanks for the detailed information about the state of your economy. I'm no expert in long term ...

<r> The KB was lurking north of Fiji for some turns and after allied carriers were discovered near Pago Pago an attack order was given! The Hornet was torpedoed 2 turns ago near the US West Cost, so "only" 4 Allied carriers could be in place.<br/>
<br/>
My attacks inflicted heavy damage to the ...

<r> The game progressed slowly the last month because of working issues and vacation. But now we are returning to the usual 1 turn by day. We finally reached end of March 1942.<br/>
<br/>
I-29 torpedoed the CV Formidable and an Ammo Explosion occurred. Terje withdraw the ship because the repair ...

<r> Hey Lcp, with realistic R&D everything slows down for the first plane in the upgrade path. The factory has to be repaired completely before any research points are produced. PzH mentioned in his AAR that he will get the Tojo in 04/42 with unrealistic R&D. I can be happy if I get the Tojo in 7/42 ...

<r> Hey Liebestod,<br/>
<br/>
thanks for your comments! I would love to see more comments in my AAR. But most activities seems to concentrate on a couple of AARs.<br/>

China is the most interesting region at the moment. Here is an overview over the current situation and my future plans. I ...

<r> Terje and I finished the 100th turn! I'm very happy to play with such a reliable opponent.<br/>
<br/>
The SRA is now under full Japanese control with the capture of Soerabaja. The last defenders retreated into the mountain hex, but they will be destroyed soon. Unfortunately all industry was ...
