Dodging the Atomic Bomb - cannonfodder (Allies) vs Dennishe (Japan)

[dennishe]

Due to fog of war and the many reports of ships that sank/not sank and sank again, I've no clue what floats and what doesn't float. And just like in the real war, LGEN Imamura's ship sank and he had to swim. The 16th Army main unit has been destroyed and will return later. LGEN Imamura is still in the database and will resume command later on. For now some MGEN has taken over command of the 16th Army/2 unit...

When I move in my carriers like this, I typically loose a couple of them. Bad weather, misorganization and bad luck destroyed my chances today. Let's hope I get another shot tomorrow. There are hardly any targets for the US carriers anyway. Now I'd rather have them staying for a couple more turns...

[dennishe]

Banzai!

I need more troops at Java to close the deal. Also at Sumatra by the way. The British garrison at Singapore is cracking freeing up the 25th Army soon. At least the number of submarines hitting my ships has decreased and also the Allied bombers are gone after a couple of good bombardments by KB.

Here are some charts of aircraft and engine production. I'm currently mainly ramping up engine production. Aircraft production will follow later. Also note that I'm not going to build any LBs except for the Ki-51 which will be a trainer. I won't build many Lily's and instead will focus on the Helen. I'm building Nates until its engines are out. These will be trainers as well. I'm not building the G3M2, but will build quite a lot of G3M3's.

Moving in on Rabaul. Will most likely be a tough nut to crack as wel...

[dennishe]

finally captured singapore.

[dennishe]

The Japanese economy is booming...

Some British carriers turned up. Hardly any damage and shot down many enemy planes. Unfortunately, the carriers are just in a small gap, where my Nells and Betties cannot reach with torpedoes a little south of Oosthaven.

The Royal Navy is become a little bit of a pain. Should have send in heavy escorts perhaps. And for sure should have had more eyes open in the skies.

[dennishe]

A small victory, but still very annoying for the Allies [:D][:D][:D][:D][:D][:D][:D][:D]

[dennishe]

The CV Hiryu got hit by one torpedo. Now hoping that no escalation of further damage occurs...

[dennishe]

I got to be more careful with my escorts. Another convoy was caught by enemy warships. I did manage to sink them though...

Awesome AAR
