RE: Attack !!!!

Post by Raverdave »

Been waiting for the paras.....I know that Luskan likes to use them but have been a bit surprised that it has taken this long for them to show up......supply probelms?  Aircraft numbers problems?  He forgot about them?    I had no intention of defending Akyab, it has served it purpose of being an air-bridge for the RAF fleeing Singers.

P-39D Airacobra x 11
B-25C Mitchell x 9
B-26B Marauder x 20

Well, the paratroops were initially slated for Java, but things were going so well there that I didn't even bother to send them in.  They're going to do some behind the scenes base grabbing in Burma and China for a while.

Well, KB sailed past Maleaop and Raver's level bombers, dauntlesses and wildcats tried to squish it! A huge air battle ensued, and KB emerged undamaged and victorious - looks like it cost me 30 planes (and about 21 pilots?) all zeros, whil it cost Raver a whole lot more - about 120 planes all up.  Foolish move on my part - could have ended badly - lesson learnt.
 
In other news, another 4000 allied troops march off into captivity as another island off java falls.  Oh, and my paratroops took Akyab without much of a fight.

Unsuccessful attacks across the board at Clark and Manila.  Just nothing budging there - the troops are well supplied and supported, but exhausted.  My fresh troops on Java have 1/100th the firepower but they've conquered 75% of it in a few days.  They got held up at Tjilitjap this turn, but that was because my armoured spearhead was shock attacking & pursuiing the enemy to keep the momentum rolling.
 
I continue to bomb Singapore, and this turn reveals how few aircraft Raver has left at Malaeop.  I'm waiting for a resupply convoy . . . [:D]

RE: Attack !!!!

Luskan straffs my only resupply ship at Singers.  She was on her third re-supply run, and this time her luck ran out.  But while she is badly damaged the remaining cargo can still be unloaded.  The troops at singers are now well and truely on their own.  Supplies (or lack of them) are going to the reason for the fortress falling.
 
Aussie troops storm the shores at Thursday Island as part of stage one in the retaking of PM.  This will be the clearest signal to Bananana boy that Iam serious about PM but it is pretty hard to hide such an event.
 
The boy wonder conducts the biggest air raid to date on Maloelap and my air defences are found wanting.  I'm going to have to do something to prevent these raids from getting worse.  Lucky for me his bombers are crappy and they only do 10% damage to the airfield.

For now they're crappy - but you can expect that to change when (if) singapore and Manila fall. 
 
I started bombing manila this turn - not a lot of damage, but it is a start.  Same with Maleaop.  I'm going to reduce Maleaop a bit (like I did Wotje a bit) but I'm really hanging out fo any allied resupply convoys there.  Any free transports Raver sends my way now are transports I don't have to worry about later.  With 1 CV damaged and another one sunk, Raver won't want a CV vs CV clash for another few months at least, so it is too much to hope that they stray into range too often.
 
As for Thursday island . . . well Raver was just checking how dangerous PM, GG, Rabaul and Lae would be to an invasion.  I'll be taking steps to rectify the complete and total lack of japanese response to the allied invasion very soon!
