RE: Port Moresbey Falls !!!!

Post by Andy Mac »

Japanese Div is on the march towarsds New Cal but the convoy has unloaded 2 Inf Regts, an Armoured Regt and a lot of Arty is now in place and ships and supply are moving - the port is so small it takes time to build up
&nbsp;
The long march out of Burma is almost complete troops are digging in at Assam and along the frontier at Cox Bazaar and Chittagong.
&nbsp;
Aircraft are arriving all the time.

RE: KB Spotted in Bay of Bengal !!!!

It seems to me that the AI is attacking to cause Allied casualties which is wearing the allied troops down, is it also causing heavy losses for the AI? And would they be acceptable losses for a human player. Reason I ask is that in stock you can pretty much destroy your offensive ability with a couple of shock attacks, but that doesn't seem to be the case here. Can you now (withing reason) have a blitz of sort's if you have a quality advantage but not a numbers advantage over your opponent? Like what Japan had in Malaya.

Thanks for the great AAR also.

IJA Captures Cox Bazaar

Post by Andy Mac »

Oh crap I should have paid more attnetion Japanese 25th Div hit COx Bazaar hard kicking out a weak allied force

(Cox Bazaar is hard to defend in the new map as its can be bypassed - I guessed wrong and the AI caught me out)

70th Div is at Chittagong witht he recovering 17th Indian Div (a shell)

I am scratching around for help all over.

AI is also hitting Diego Garcia - I may have been over optimistic thats its on the defensive

Colombo is trashed by KB while a IJN TF hits SYDNEY harbour

USN is out of position covering Tahiti I will try a speed run to cover it
