AE AAR v the AI 1943 edition

RE: AE AAR
OK Tarawa and Baker Island Invasion forces have commenced loading
Baker Island is an atoll so a single Div is about all you can take so 25th Infantry Div is getting the Duty
Tarawa is a series of atolls so two marine Regts of the 3rd Marine Div and the full 43rd Inf Div will assault that target.
I am weak in carrier air as most of the CVE's are in fact CVR's - only two operational fleet carriers make this a risky proposition but I am going for it !!!

RE: AE AAR
OK a few points my follow on attack failed the Japanese were not as disrupted as I had hoped but a Bde has managed to flank them and beat them into Perth

In other news it looks liek the AI has not totally evacced Western Australia I can see two or three other units floating about I need to cover my LOC back to the railhead

RE: AE AAR
Just to explain one of the niggles you will face with AE and pursuit attacks
When a unit successfully pursues a retreating unit NEITHER side gains control of all the hexsides unless one side or other had a unit in the hex before the combat - That means the pursuing units can keep on moving and exit any of the hex sides - de facto moving through the enemy stack thats been retreated.
Negating it is easy just have a unit in the hex protecting your line of retreat or hope to god you can get out of the way or knock the pursuing units out befor eth emain force arrives
(Units cannot attack and pursue in same turn now)
So Pursuit is less powerfull but when it works is still devastating

Yup. I confirmed that when I went to pinpoint a spot for Andy. BTW, I'm running Firefox. How about you?
Yes
RE: AE AAR
OK guys I need to go sleep before work tomorrow if I get a chance I will run it on until the end of the Gilberts and Akyab campains
I hope this has helped give you a glimpse into AE a little more and how it actually plays out.
I will leave you with the following turns
and a few observations
1. Akyab is going to be a hard fight even with 5th Div being retreated a few times thats a strong garrison and a lot of AA guns no wonder I have been taking heavy flak casualties,

2. KB is around and it wants to play.... Japanese aircraft attacking my TF en route to Baker picked up Soryu at least and their may be others - I only have two fleet carriers this could get very messy....

I hope this has helped give you a glimpse into AE a little more and how it actually plays out.
I will leave you with the following turns
and a few observations
1. Akyab is going to be a hard fight even with 5th Div being retreated a few times thats a strong garrison and a lot of AA guns no wonder I have been taking heavy flak casualties,

2. KB is around and it wants to play.... Japanese aircraft attacking my TF en route to Baker picked up Soryu at least and their may be others - I only have two fleet carriers this could get very messy....

RE: AE AAR
I didn't know there were so many all weather planes in India and Burma. There seems to be strikes launched and targets found even if the weather is heavy rain or thunderstorms. Besides it showing what the weather over a base/target is, what does it do to planes effectiveness??

RE: AE AAR
I saw a Japanese unit at Baker wiped out by attrition. That was awfully quick. Has AE modified how long IJ forces can hold off after being forced off-base?

RE: AE AAR
that explains why I've never seen it in the other AAR's before.
So if your forces have puny guns you shouldn't bombard somebody with BIGGER guns[:D]

RE: AE AAR
Andy, here's how to get rid of the white space in MSPaint - I'm assuming you're taking the screenshot and pasting into MSPaint:
1. after pasting, use the rectangle select tool and select the area you really want.
2. after selecting, Edit/Copy (or Control-C)
3. In MSPaint, select File/New to get a new, empty image
4. Then paste into the new image what you selected in 1 and 2. Save that one, and you're done.

RE: AE AAR
ORIGINAL: Alikchi
You said "enhanced scenario Japan division" being faced at Culverin - does that mean that the Japanese have additional divisions or have some of the historical divisions been upgraded in some way?
You can see the name of the division in the combat report, Alikchi. 6th Guards Div is a new one.

RE: AE AAR
Yup looks like a significant chuck of KB its to bug out and scatter - unfortuantely thats a sizable chunk of my amphibs so I need to run and hope the AI will be deterred by the Canton Island Air Group
I have a Maine Corsair Sqn and a couple of dauntless Gps on Canton as well as a B17 Sqn on 100% naval search - they just paid there way didnt they....
I will retreat in that direction and put move a sqn of P38's onto Baker Island now that its captured
If I run far enough and fast enough I may get out of it
A few observations about the western Australian campaign
Dependence on a single rail hub is dangerous. A mobile unit such as a Japanese Recce Unit or the Aus A/C Regt can move fairly quickly on open terrain - I relied on the AI being quite weak when I advanced but even then I was a bit plodding consoldiating my force before moving.
The reason I did this was to avoid bad habits - it was unlikely the AI would flank me - not impossible but unlikely you always need to watch for the vital supply line getting cut.
Even running through the test turns I did last night has shown me a couple of bugs.
I think Akyab is looking like being brutal for the allies best part of three dug in Japanese Divs - I dont have 100% air superiority and if I commit to many of my forces to a wasting battle at Akyab then they will not be rested for a 44 offensive
I will probably commit another couple of Divisions but I need to watch my flanks - this is a key difference in land combat in AE - th emovement speed off road in reasonable terrain is NOT the deterret it is in stock - especially in PBEM you must keep an eye on your LOC and garrison it accordingly. If there is ANY danger of a retreat and pursuit you must have a unit backstopping your main force or you may find pusuing armour getting into your rear without a fight.
The changes to land combat are not as obvious as the air and sea changes but in many ways are even more profound in their impact on the game

RE: AE AAR
Nice to see that AI is reacting to invasions. And even the Sub vs Sub attack was nice touch.
I think your invasion fleet is in trouble...want to try take the KB on with 2 CVs? [:D]
