PM is still closed. I am hoping to stalemate Kenny long enough to build my next line of defense. The invasion of Russia is schedualed for mid summer.

My general staff is working on a plan for an invasion of Russia.

WHY?? How does this help you slow down the Americans and Co. coming up from Oz or the East Pacific? We know you do better on land combat then Kenny. [&o] I would use some of those LCU's to reinforce those areas because if he manages to hold on there, those HEAVY bombers that you love so much could be based there. [X(]

Do you have some of the Western Aleutians in Japanese hands to prevent transfer of planes to Russia??

Hopefully, Kenny has been building up the forts of all those bases to level 9 and has the fighters/bombers set on training of 90% for over a year.

I agree. despite the VP gain.

Given the slow rate of Allied response I feel the Japanese player is panicking. If he's gonna freak out over losing Port Moresby, I dunno. Looks like he threw all of his eggs into one basket (Asian Mainland) and forgot about the real threat.

Stalemate

Post by RUPD3658 »

PM is still shut down. Not much else happening

Trog: The reason I am panicing over losing PM is due to the masses of 4E bombers that will fly from there. If PM is operational Rabaul can't be held. 600 4E bombers will beat any CAP I put up. If Rabaul falls Truk is threatened and so on all the way to the Home Islands. It has nothing to do with LCUs but rather with the inabilty of the Japanese to stop the 4E bomber threat. That is why I must stop him here as long as possible. The Russian invasion also makes use of units that at the moments are not doing much of anything. The points scored there will make it harder for Kenny to get to 2:1 and may delay the game into 1946 even if the Home Islands are burned to the ground.

Can't catch a break.

Post by RUPD3658 »

To quote Dr Evil "Why am I surrounded by freakin' idiots?" The Bettys who flew such a coordinated strike last turn went in piecemeal against Allied CVs and got slaughtered. If all 330 had gone in together I may have sunk a CV or 2. Even 6 mine hits failed to sink an AK.

I had hoped that the Buna defenders
would be able to hold off an air drop. Allied airpower made this impossible.

Post by RUPD3658 »

This time I tried adding a few hundred Zeros to escort the PM strikes. They all decided to escort the strike on Buna and left the brave but stupid Betty pilots to go it alone at PM. The results were predicatable. Looks like New Georgia is going to be little more than a speed bump to the Allied juggernut. I have pulled back to my next line of defense and dug in. PM is now operational so New Georgia has become untenable

Nice to see that my new Napalm filled mines are working.[:D]

Bloody air battle at Lunga. I got the best of it in the air 231:61 but got plastered on the ground. Final losses were:

292 Tonys
119 B-24s
48 B-17s
44 LB-30s
28 Liberator IVs

Shame that this strike did not break up like mine did against PM. [:(]

Nothing is safe within 10 hexes (plus or minus a few). I hope your training facilities in China are up to replacing these losses along with increaing your production of fighters....and AA units!![:(]

AA units are performing historically and shooting down 2-3% of each raid. They seem to work best against F-5A recon flights.

Factories are builling over 1000 fighter per month as opposed to Kenny's 150 or so bombers. I will gladly trade 1:1.

As to training pilots, I don't bother since they are only going to die anyway. The good ones will survive and the other are just a revolving door of cannon fodder. I am a Darwinist at heart. [:D]

And by the way: Anything with 14 hexes is toast. Thus my Sir Robin-San defenive strategy. [:'(]

I will put up a tougher fight at my next line of defense.
