[Smeulders]

27th of February 1943

Karsten: Thanks, feel free to post here if you've any questions or comments

A small mistake in the dates earlier, we just finished the 27th.

Burma
An air offensive was launched against Taung Gyi, one of 2 active lvl 4 airfields. (The other is Tongou, Magwe is at 4 but has little to no air support) The Japanese lose a hundred fighters, mainly Oscars. The Allies lose 35 fighters, 12 heavies and 35 medium bombers. The field is 40% damaged. The allied bombers are hit hard, but they'll press on until the field is closed.

Oscars

Oscars? Are you playing PDU off? If so, then you will see a lot of them. I think there are several sentai that do not upgrade beyond Oscar or Nate.

[Smeulders]

Yep it's PDU off. Cuts on both ends, off the +- 150 Japanese planes there were a 100 Oscars. On the other hand both USAAF fighter groups in Burma are equipped with P-40 variants while there are lots of P-38 doing not much at all in SWPac. (Had one P38-E squadron, but they came in first and lost 50% of their number and I'm out of replacements.)

Is this game dead? Or just the AAR?
