[Andy Mac]

I am still trying to decide the optimal split of ships for each mission
 
Most of my modern ships will be used on the Centpac operation I will need to leave 4 or 5 CV's in the West just to keep PZB guessing.
 
I am also moving most of my small AP's and 100 LST's to Rabaul and Townsville to pick up the assault Corps currently residing there.

[Andy Mac]

OK the forces I am leaving behind in the West to keep up the action and try and force the pace.

Saratoga/ Wasp/ Essex/ Tico/ Bennington/ Langley/ San Jacinto/ Belleau Wood and 8 Operational CVE's

I will also leave 4 BB's behind California/Colorado/North Carolina and Washington.

Also Canberra, Shropshire and 6 CL's plus about 75 DD's and 50 DE's

A fairly strong force.

I will also leave 34 AP's/ 103 AK's/ 2 LSD/ 9 LST's/ 53 LCI's/ 10 LSM's and 162 LCT's enough assault lift for 2 - 3 Divisions

So it shouyld be enough to keep up the pace in the West

[Andy Mac]

OK East Offensive ----

Lexington/ Hornet/ Bunker Hill/ Franklin/ Hanckok/ Randolph/ BHR/ Shangri La/ Enterprise and Yorktown/ Antietim plus 3 CVL's

Plu 5 BB's NJ/ Iowa/ alabama/ Mass and SoDAK - I am short of heavies as I have 3 in long term repair on the west coast.

Arkansas (12") plus Wisconsin and Missouri arrive in next 60 days

[duckenf]

why such a limited attack on Singapore? Do you not have enough ac in range for a bigger attack or are you concentrating on suppressing other japanese airfields within range of your strike forces?

[Andy Mac]

I have decided for the time being to attack elsewhere Mersing has fallen I expect Kuantan to fall tomorrow and Khota Baru within the week then I will turn round reconcentrate and force the straight.
 
Until then I am doing the minimum to suppress the AF.
 
Been a few days my Subs are having some success but PZB has large HK groups out and searching.
 
Lautern has been suppressed by B29's out of DArwin and tomorrow 1st Aus Cav Div will land to secure the base.
 
Remember this theatre is now a BLUFF so I need to have lots of activity without overcommitting. (The good news is that as its now a bluff I can operate more freely with the supplies in theatre and not worry to much about re stockpiling !!!)
 
Plans are to secure a toehold on Timor to help make PZB think that I am trying to secure the corridor for the passage of troops. I will then use forces to secure West and North Borneo all for the purpose of convincing PZB that this is my main strike.
 
I am VERY encouraged by the sign of 12th Div moving out of the Marianas ----if he is stripping the garrsion of the Marianas down from 400k to say 200k that becomes a VERY attractive possibility.
 
I have 2 Corps still prepping for Pagan/ Saipan and Tinian so I could go back in quickly after securing the Bonins if I had to.
 
Remember I need to convice PZB that this is the route I have chosen force him to commit to stop me and then I will cut him off at the knees !!!!

[Andy Mac]

p.s. when I am ready to go for Singapore and I have either Khota or Georgetown fully developed I will bring in 5 Groups of B29's and pound the place to rubble ----
 
I have calculated with the supplies on hand I can operate 5 B29 Gps for 2 weeks from bases in Malaya without compromising my supply status too much....
 
2 Weeks of B29's on port or AF attack should be enough to destroy a large chunk of the Japanese supplies in Singapore all the time the 5 B25J Gps and all my FB's will be on Ground attack.
 
After that lot soften up singapore I have great hopes of being able to take the place with relative ease !!!

[Andy Mac]

Just to give the scale 5 Groups of B29's for 2 weeks will cost me 50,000 supplies........before any ops losses etc thats just operational requirements[:D][:D][:D] so I will be using 25% of my total on hand supplies for that little attack in B29's alone....

[ny59giants]

Good idea to keep PzB off balance with some continued pressure in Malaya and then trying to take the rest of Borneo. I think any pause will leave PzB thinking that your logistics need to be shored up again and he will not be thinking about an attack on Wake/Marcus.
Your attack via YELLOW needs to be sudden without any warning to give you the max on surprise. [:D][:D]

[Andy Mac]

Aye thats the plan keep the pressure on for as long as I can keep him looking West.....I would like to land on Wake, Marcus and the Bonins within a week or so of each other and then I may look again at the Marianas if he has reduced the Garrisons
 
Re The West a more detailed plan is germinating in my mind !!!!
 
1st Aus Army is securing Malaya with 7 Divs and may consider an attack on India or Ceylon in the future (Ceylon is worth a lot of points and would give me an advanced base)
8th US Army will lead the assault on Borneo with about 5 Divs
ABDA Corps is going to advance up from Timor to try and extend my are of operations (3 Cav Divs)
 
That will leave significant forces not yet committed in theatre that I am not able to assault lift not sure what to do about them I have a few large AP's so I could just lift them perhaps I should be moving more forces into Malaya to use it as a base of operations for all the distraction operations to come.
 
Sticking another Corps and 5 or 6 Divs into Malaya would certainly get PZB's attention !!!
 
 

[Andy Mac]

[:D][:D][:D] wow my half century 50 pages and 47,000 hits I reflect in PZB's glory you all just read I am sure to see how the allies fail once again !!! [:D]

Thanks to everyone who reads onwards to 45 !!!!

[Andy Mac]

15 months on General Andy Mac has at least re invaded the British stronghold of Malaya !!!!

ORIGINAL: Andy Mac

Admiral PZ "Yamamoto" B in a cruel twist of fate that just feels wrong send several sqns of Zeroes on a LR Suicide mission to intercept Admiral Nomad over Port Moresby 200 zeroes were sent and the sole Corsair on Escort managed to shoot down 199 of them...the last pilot seeing the futility of mixing it with the Marine F4U rammed admiral Nomads plane.

As a result the British Field Marshall Andy Mac is brought out of retirement from his beach house near Perth where he had been quietly drinking himself into oblivion wondering why Churchill had overlooked him for active command. (perhaps because he made Percival look competent but thats another story !!!)

In what is obviously a clerical error Andy Mac has been placed in command of all allied forces in the Pacific Theatre

(Curtin is reported to have said that drunken sot what the hell is Churchill playing at !!!)

General MacArthurs alleged response is unprintable.

No one knows why a British General has been appointed to take over a naval and air war after the British Army was so decisively defeated in India only time will tell what new screwups Andy mac can bring to the roll of dis honour of the British Army in this theatre.......

Congratulations Andy.........carry on the good fight.........and we your faithful audience will continue to enjoy............

[HarryM]

Congrats to you both, I check this and PZB's AARs everyday! [&o][&o][&o]

[ny59giants]

Sticking another Corps and 5 or 6 Divs into Malaya would certainly get PZB's attention !!!

This is true, but if you could use them to accelerate your complete conquest of Borneo and then PzB would be thinking strongly about you invading PI. This plus your attack of Wake/Marcus/Iwo Jima will force PzB to have to focus on two avenues of attack.

Your ability to begin strategic bombing of the Home Islands needs to move towards the front of your thinking IMO. I had not been looking as closely at the date as I should have. Then, I noticed that the end of '44 is upon you and YIKES!!
I think the Japanese get some good planes if this games moves towards '46. [:-]

[Andy Mac]

No question time is a factor but my original intent was to shif forces to Malaya and then use that advance base to strike out
 
Yellow is good to go now which would mean all being well 3 weeks to take Iwo...
 
Winning is going to be damn tough in this game I am at 56k toPZB's 72k score yup thats right folks PZB is still leading.
 
I need 2:1 before August to get a Victory anything after that and I am purly fighting for honourable draw !!!
 
My Subs strike and two tankers are burning....
 
I am landing 1st Aussie Cav at Lautern I NNED to Keep PZB focussed on my left so my right can sucker punch him !!!
