RE: RHS Test 8A: 3 January 1942
This turn is a classic example of conservative (yet aggressive) play by the Japanese team. It is almost impossible to do, and it does require good dice rolls, but Japan managed to fly almost 50% more air missions, yet had zero attrition - less than the Allies had. They set up the possibility of low attrition by (a) flying well rested aircrews and (b) not flying extended range missions.
It was conservative in other ways. They flew significant numbers of fighter sweeps and escorts for bombers into Pegu - in spite of no enemy opposition - on principle. They bombarded Kappa Kappa, in spite of no evidence of enemy opposition, to prepare the way for an amphibious landing. They continued their policy of using artillery on Luzon - after a disaster vs AAA some time ago. After the Allies have depleted supplies and suffered attrition from bombardment, it will be safer to launch air bombardments. There is no particular reason to expend aircraft vs effective AAA in this case. They had minesweepers formed up and sweeping at both Truk and Kwajalein - never mind no mines have ever struck at either point - so when submarines laid mines at both - they were immediately detected and partially swept. And the return of ships to Tarakan was behind a new minesweeping squadron (an earlier one was wiped out by the CD guns and mines there - the CD guns are now gone - but the mines are not).
At the same time, a raider appeared at Fiji for the third time in less than a month of war operations, and it detected numbers of Allied ships in port. A submarine was engaged off the US West Coast, another at Palembang, another at Midway, another in the Coral Sea - they are contesting the sea lines of communications in many places. Significant land attrition was achieved on several fronts - two corps were wiped out in China, two more seem likely to follow, Pegu fell in spite of being fortified and defended by Burma 1st Division and in spite of being attacked by a very small (if combined arms) force - and the lack of action in Malaya is due to the need to march to contact with an enemy retreating faster than even armor can keep up with. Instead of falling in 100 days, Malaya seems likely to fall in about 30.

It was conservative in other ways. They flew significant numbers of fighter sweeps and escorts for bombers into Pegu - in spite of no enemy opposition - on principle. They bombarded Kappa Kappa, in spite of no evidence of enemy opposition, to prepare the way for an amphibious landing. They continued their policy of using artillery on Luzon - after a disaster vs AAA some time ago. After the Allies have depleted supplies and suffered attrition from bombardment, it will be safer to launch air bombardments. There is no particular reason to expend aircraft vs effective AAA in this case. They had minesweepers formed up and sweeping at both Truk and Kwajalein - never mind no mines have ever struck at either point - so when submarines laid mines at both - they were immediately detected and partially swept. And the return of ships to Tarakan was behind a new minesweeping squadron (an earlier one was wiped out by the CD guns and mines there - the CD guns are now gone - but the mines are not).
At the same time, a raider appeared at Fiji for the third time in less than a month of war operations, and it detected numbers of Allied ships in port. A submarine was engaged off the US West Coast, another at Palembang, another at Midway, another in the Coral Sea - they are contesting the sea lines of communications in many places. Significant land attrition was achieved on several fronts - two corps were wiped out in China, two more seem likely to follow, Pegu fell in spite of being fortified and defended by Burma 1st Division and in spite of being attacked by a very small (if combined arms) force - and the lack of action in Malaya is due to the need to march to contact with an enemy retreating faster than even armor can keep up with. Instead of falling in 100 days, Malaya seems likely to fall in about 30.

RE: RHS Test 8A: Evolving Allied Planning
The Allies in Test 8A are attempting to get ahead of the decision curve and create conditions under which it is possible to contest the Japanese offensive, which is running well ahead of history on every front, and suffering no significant setbacks.
The number of significant Allied tactical victories is short: one effective attack on tanker Task Force Two by a force of old destroyers led by an Omaha class cruiser; one tactical AAA victory over the Philippines; a couple of small scale air combat victories being the most significant. Singapore is about to fall. The enemy is actually closer to taking Rangoon than Singapore. Only two hexes on Luzon remain in Allied hands - Clark and Bataan. Enemy raiders and KB itself have been to the Eastern end of the South Pacific sea line of communications, badly disrupting its establishment. The Yellow River plain in China has been virtually lost; North China is more deeply penetrated than ever before seen; South China is in deep trouble; and Central China is severely contested. The enemy is landing on Kappa Kappa today, having taken Rabaul a few days ago. Tulagi and Shortlands also are already enemy occupied.
The original Allied concept was simple - in the SRA fall back and concentrate in Java, taking advantage of existing infrastructures and its central location; attempt to achieve unexpected air superiority over a strong ground defense force supported by strong naval forces. Enemy concentration on immediate operations offered some freedom of movement beyond them. Most of the Malaya Army has been successfully evacuated, resisted effectively only by submarines. [The enemy may have assigned air forces to oppose this, but if so they have failed utterly to strike, probably due to limited search assets generating contact information.] Virtually all available forces in the Indian Ocean have been sent to Java. Surviving elements of the Asiatic Fleet and virtually all of the FEAF have also made it out of the Philippines and are either in Java or nearby able to reach it. One of the Allied players (Chair 3) spent a man-week creating the attached spreadsheet and the text report here below about the initial forces committed to context Java and nearby seas - submitting it to the operational commander of the area (Chair 2).
Meanwhile, the Chair 1 player played a strategic supporting role. First, he sent a force of three battleships (after evading KB and repairing up damage from moving at high speed) to Java by indirect routing, on a course below Australia. This force crossed the dangerous South Pacific without detection and now is almost certain to arrive in time, and join the two capital ships already there (Prince of Wales and Repulse). Another battleship will leave Hawaii tomorrow, and Warspite is about three days out coming in after repairs at Bremerton. A sixth battleship is to leave Bremerton in six days. These ships might arrive in time for later phases of the campaign. A number of air and ground units with proper command assignments are trying to work their way to the Indian Ocean by crossing the South Pacific or by routing to Capetown from the Eastern USA or Panama. Again, these units may arrive in time for later participation in the campaign.
But the boldest aspect of the Chair 1 concept is just emerging. The context is that the US CV force is unfit for combat with the Kiddo Butai because of the aircraft compliment available to them - and also because it isn't concentrated. USS Yorktown has just entered the map from Panama, and the other three were hiding at Midway. Some of the air units are Buffalos, SBD-2s and TBDs considered inadequate in range for operation in carrier battles vs Japanese carriers, wholly apart from the problem of inferior numbers of carriers and squadrons compared with the Kiddo Butai. For this reason, the US carriers were directed not to engage - or even to betray their location by allowing aircraft from them to be spotted. The proposal actually risks breaking the latter order, but may not do so. The proposal - partially implemented one day ago in game time - splits the force into two parts. The Northern Special Transport Force departed Midway with two carriers (Enterprise and Saratoga under command of Saratoga's captain, who is very good) and all five squadrons of aircraft considered suitable for combat - that is with half the air units they potentially can carry and 5/8 of the number the two carriers normally carry. In company is 4 CA and all the long range destroyers available. They will attempt to extracate Lark Battalion - so the Australian Eighth Division can form up on Java - and other stranded Allied land units in or near the Bismarck Archepellego. The third carrier (Lexington) is returning to Hawaii, with the rest of the escorts, where Yorktown is to meet them to form up the Southern Special Transport Force. Lexington has five squadrons of aircraft on board, 2 of TBDs, 1 of Buffalos, and 2 of SBD-2s. Another squadron of TBDs remains at Midway and will attempt to go to Hawaii by another ship. Another squadron of SBD-2s flew to Johnston Island, where it loaded on an AK and is now also inbound to Hawaii. There the Buffalos will upgrade to F4F-3s, and the SBD-2s will attempt to upgrade to SBD-3s. Yorktown already has F4F-3s and two squadrons of SBD-3s - and yet another TBD squadron. The Southern Force will leave Hawaii with ten squadrons of aircraft, two of F4F-3s, three of SBD-3s, all on one ship. The other ship will carry five squadrons unable to fly on carriers. Exactly what is being sorted out, but candidates include P-40s which fought well in the first days of the war (one has 25 kills) and Marine SB2U-3 dive bomber squadrons, unable to fight from a carrier, but very useful from land bases. Other fast ships will carry land units and air units in company with the force, and it will go to Java by proceeding under Australia - assuming it can get across the South Pacific (which is infested with submarines, raiders and perhaps the KB itself). This route is thought to be possible because of long range search aircraft operating from islands along its route. Originally intended to escort two battleships, these are proceeding independently because they cruise significantly slower than the carriers - and because two of them can sail sooner than the carriers can depart Hawaii. The Northern Force routing is much more dangerous - and is depending on analysis that too many Japanese planes must be forward so rear area search must be minimal if it exists at all. In support of this movement is one tanker force and an independent AVD - which hopes to permit "eyes" forward from allied territory not yet occupied by the enemy combined with flying boats from NEI. The Northern Force will transit with carrier planes resting - only cruiser scouts will be searching. It is under orders to evade and not even to attack targets of opportunity - which are likely to be detected in the Japanese SLOC feeding Midway, Kwajalein etc.
Ultimately the two forces are to meet at Java, forming up with probably only 12 squadrons - all modern with the best range available - 4 of F4F-3s and 8 of SBD-3s. They may then consider carrier operations, but fears it would attract the KB to the area make this only a possibility. They may transit back under Australia to Fiji to contest enemy moves in that area, as was planned some time ago, possibly in company with a British carrier about to enter the map. The TBD squadrons will either be held until they can upgrade to TBFs - or they may be transported forward for use from land bases along with other Navy and Marine squadrons - either on the bases of he SLOC in the South Pacific - or on Java. The plan is still evolving and not all decisions are in place. One land unit likely to make the hop to Java with the Southern Force is the 41st Railway Coast Defense Regiment (outfitted with 16 eight inch rail guns and, formerly in reserve, 8 twelve inch CD mortars, the previous outfit of the same unit). Other ships are departing the US West Coast or Christmas island with air or ground units that may join the Southern Force at some point along its trek.
Here below is the report written by the Chair 3 player on forces available. Attached is a four sheet spreadsheet with even more detail.
FORTRESS JAVA: A PROPOSAL
The Japanese advance into Malaya, the Netherlands East Indies, and the Philippines has been rapid and very focused upon a particular set of doctrines. Notable aspects of the enemy’s behavior include:
1) Maintenance of air superiority over their land and naval forces.
2) Emphasis on tactical air support at the expense of directly attacking our airpower.
3) Rapid opportunism in terms of exploiting a weak location.
4) Heavy escort of naval operations by CVL’s, BB’s or both.
In terms of risk to their forces this is fairly conservative behavior. Howerver it has enabled spectacular gains on land in Malaya and it has minimized enemy naval losses. The Battle of Malaya was lost at the Battle of George Town when the enemy demonstrated their ability to defeat a division with repeated air attacks. Somewhere, at a place of our choosing, it is vital interest of the Allies to check the enemy’s momentum. That is the purpose of this plan.
Strategic Goals:
1) To check the enemy’s advance into the SRA and to force them to expend more time and resources than they currently plan to employ.
2) To delay the complete subjugation of the SRA for as long as is feasible.
Objective
To defeat the enemy’s efforts to seize a landing beach on Java, by either destroying the landing force or rendering it combat ineffective.
Means:
1) Establish a condition of air parity.
a. Encourage the enemy to enter into an attritional air campaign as a pre-emption of having to defend at sea or on land, buying us more time.
b. Or rejecting option above, encourage the enemy to take risks with their naval and land forces.
c. Rely upon the defender’s air advantage and AAA to inflict severe air losses on the enemy.
2) Establish a condition of naval parity.
a. Disrupt enemy invasion forces as a force multiplier for our land forces.
b. Search for opportunities to take out key enemy naval assets.
3) Defend locations that require the enemy to face means 1) and 2) prior to attempting a lodgment on Java. The enemy’s invading land forces shall either
a. Face an intense disrupting resistance at the shore under conditions of our local air superiority, allowing us to contain the landing at the beach.
b. Be allowed to land and face a concentrated counterattack by a superior land force under conditions of our local air superiority.
i. We will rely upon our good interior lines of communication to re-concentrate and to defeat similar threats elsewhere.
Battle location
Java has been selected as the point of this resistance largely due to the fact that the enemy has been able to establish air superiority in the regions that it is currently attacking. As a matter of necessity Allied forces must withdraw to some location in order to concentrate. As a matter of necessity that location has been Java. However, Java has the following advantages:
1) It is a central location that offers a degree of safety to our forces withdrawing from other fronts.
2) It is a location with ample resources within striking range of much of the rest of the SRA. It is a location that the enemy must take in order to secure their possession of the SRA.
3) It has multiple mountain locations that are defensible.
4) Java has an excellent base infrastructure possessing multiple reduncancies, with a first class naval base, multiple second class airfields, and several airfields that can be upgraded to first class status.
5) Java has an excellent road and rail net.
6) Java has a relatively open escape route via Tilitjap on the south coast.
7) Java has three non-malarial locations: Batavia, Soerabaya, and Malang.
Java has disadvantages that must be considered:
1) The island is big with multiple landing beaches. We cannot defend every beach and have confidence of containing the enemy at that location.
2) It is likely that prior to an invasion attempt the island will be surrounded by enemy air bases with substantial air forces to the west, north and east.
3) The enemy will have ready access to excellent refueling and repair facilities that will allow them to maintain operations.
4) The island is not exceedingly far from Truk, the most immediate potential source of substantial enemy air and naval reinforcements.
5) The Island is not within support range of other island bastions; nor do we have the forces to create such bastions.
6) An enemy naval force south of the island would disrupt reinforcement or evacuation operations involving Java.
Summary of Forces Available for this Operation
Available Air Forces
Our ability to contest the airspace over Java and its approaches is the key to our ability to conduct this operation. Currently we have barely sufficient base forces to support the available air force. We are looking for more base forces at this time.

This force is augmented 4 coastal defence units and CD guns in a few base forces. One CD unit is fixed at Soerabaya; the other units are mobile. Tanker and replenishment support is weak in our view so we will be looking for additional assets to send to Java.
Land Forces Available for this Operation
We have approximately 3 and 2/3rds divisions with which to defend the island:
BA 18th Division
KNIL Java Division
IA 9th Division (one brigade needs time to rest)
AIF 8th Division (2/3rds strength and all brigades need time to rest)
Mechanized forces supporting this are 1 battalion of Stuart light tanks and 3 battalions of tankettes and armored cars.
Supplementing this force are two IA Brigades and one KNIL RCT. In addition we have about 5 militia battalions.
AAA Forces Available for this Operation
We have substantial anti-aircraft resources that employ excellent equipment.
7 heavy AA regiments
1 light AA regiment.
In addition several base forces have substantial AAA armaments.
Operational Plan
Preliminary Operations
Preliminary operations are not defined in this document but they are based around three primary goals:
1) Reinforcing Java with additional land and air forces.
2) Establishing an observational network as far north as possible.
3) Fuel depot operations to serve as naval deployment locations.
Reinforcement Operations
These are already under way mostly from Singapore and Sumatra.
However air transport assets can be used to supplement the evacuation from locations where it is not safe to operate ships such as Kuching.
We are currently considering some longer range reinforcement operations that entail some risk to the units committed to the task.
Forward reconnaissance emplacements
Using airfields, AVPs and CSs we will attempt to gain as much early warning on the enemy naval approach to Java as we can.
Fuel Depot Operations
We have two tankers that will require escort to establish fuel depots at Ambon and on Timor to allow some of our naval forces to harass enemy landing operations on the eastern approaches to the NEI. Having a second port of call will provide the bulk of the surface fleet operational flexibility against the enemy. We are investigating obtaining a few more tankers or replenishment ships for these operations.
Harassing Naval Operations
Once fuel depots are in place, we can task as yet undefined surface naval forces to challenge or disrupt smaller landing attempts on the northeastern or eastern flank of Java. Such harassing operations should be done so as to not jeopardize the bulk of our surface striking force but to by Java time before the main battle.
Primary Operation Plan
This is the main plan for the defence of Java itself. This plan is based on the Land Defense Plan and then worked up from there. The detailed allocations for the Prime Operation Plane can be found in the attached spreadsheet.
Land Defence Considerations
It is assumed that the enemy will attempt multiple landings on the island. It also assumed that the enemy will have the choice of landing simultaneously or in succession. To accomplish our objective we will need to neutralize or defeat one landing while containing, or being prepared to contain, the other landing locations. The available force is not enough to defeat a determined landing effort at every possible landing location. Accordingly the plan must prioritize based upon best assessment of the enemy’s intentions and the geography of Java itself.
It is believed that the enemy will rule out the best ports, Batavia and Soerabaya, because they expect these positions to be strongly defended by coastal defence guns and fortifications. We rule out Tilitjap in the belief that the enemy will rule it out due its distance from air support, the potential hazards of reaching it through straits, and the likelihood that is a reinforcement collection point for our troops. Our conclusion is that while those locations are major operational targets they will not be landing beaches. Of the remaining beaches, Merak, Samaranga, and Probolinggo offer level 2 ports or larger. Samaranga is a special case in that it is a level 5 port and sits astride the island at its narrowest point; enemy possession of Samaranga could divide Java into two zones of resistance, cutting off the east from the evacuation port of Tilitjap. Tjepoe is of some interest: while it is a poor port, if captured there is a zone of poor communications around it that might allow the enemy to build up unmolested. Kalidjati is astride major rail and road lines east of Batavia but offers a poor port. Malang and its neighbor Probolinggo offer access to a complex of air bases and ports that spread to the eastern tip of the island but we note that a force in the mountains of hex (57,106) might prevent a linkup with enemy forces coming from Bali. We conclude that the enemy has two basic choices of their axes of attack: Merak and at least one port on the north coast, or Merak and Malang-Probolinggo. Unfortunately this list of possibilities is somewhat too large for us to consider containing all of them at the beachhead. Accordingly we must rely upon a powerful mobile force to compensate.
An enemy airborne assault is a real possibility. The likely targets are Buitzenzorg, Djojakarta, and Lamoedang.
Land Defence Plan
Given the above considerations, we plan to place substantial forces at the following locations: Merang/Batavia, Samarang, Tjoepe, and Malang. The forces at Samarang and Tjoepe will be strong and when alerted to level I will be placed in strategic movement mode for rapid transport to other landing zones. The Malang position is a critical position for us as we are essentially conceding the eastern peninsula of Java extending to the east of that location. The region east of Malang includes the port of Probolinggo, which in our view will be of high interest to the enemy. Probolinggo is the one port of level 2 or higher at which we will depend upon a concerted counterattack to remove the enemy from this position, should they capture it; it is closest to a trap position that we can manage to create. The port at the eastern tip of Java, Banjoewang and on the island east of Soerabaya, Sumenep, will be left undefended, however we will place a force in the mountains east of Pobolinggo to prevent a linkup with the eastern tip of Java.
The primary mission of the KNIL Java Division, the BA 18th Division and our small tank force is to eliminate an enemy lodgment of our choice. The land forces will defend the island by eliminating lodgments in succession.
Small forces will be detached to all non-used airfields to discourage an enemy airborne assault.
We will place the most weakened elements of our primary defence forces in non-malarial positions. This is a major reason that the Australians are slated for Malang and why the worst of the Indian brigades is slated to recover in Batavia.
Because air power is deadly to land forces once the enemy has landed it will be necessary to detach AA units allocated to base defense to our land forces.
Tilitjap will be the primary reinforcement and evacuation point.
Naval Defence Plan
Most naval units have been detailed to ‘forces’ which are squadrons of battleships or cruisers along with an attached destroyer escort. The naval defence plan consists of the following layered concepts:
1) Minefields will be placed according to priority list of expected invasion sites; we will not augment the existing mine defences at Batavia and Soerabaya.
2) AMc wills be deployed at defended invasion beaches to maintain minefields and to provide a sudden interference forces against enemy amphibious forces.
3) PT boat squadrons will be deployed near the invasion beaches to interfere with enemy minesweepers and amphibious forces.
4) Two light cruiser forces, called Interception Forces, consisting of our shortest ranged light cruiser and destroyer forces will be deployed at Batavia and Denpassar. Their mission is to interfere with enemy amphibious forces.
5) Submarine forces will be based at Batavia and Soerabaya. Their primary targets will be enemy carriers, battleships, and cruisers. We will be looking for occasional lucky hits to improve our numerical odds in other levels of this conflict.
6) The bulk of the fleet, consisting of our longer ranged forces (1st, 2nd, 3rd Battle Forces, 1st Cruiser Force, 1st and 2nd Light Cruiser Forces), will be based primarily at Soerabaya. Denpassar, Timor, Ambon, or Darwin will serve as alternate locations for either the entire force or detachments on missions. The missions of this force are:
a. To opportunistically engage enemy landing attempts against other islands along the approaches to Java.
b. Under substantial air support to challenge enemy naval forces in the immediate vicinity of Java.
7) One squadron of destroyers will be kept at Soebaya to detach destroyers for other missions such as tanker or minelayer escort.
8) Anti-naval air forces, torpedo bombers escorted by Brewster-339s, will be husbanded to strike high value naval targets: carriers, battleships, cruisers.
9) We will base substantial naval transport forces at Tilitjap to enable the first wave of the evacuation of Java, when that decision is made.
Air Defence Considerations
While we can field over two hundred fighters, less than half of them are first class fighters (P-40 variants) that have any prospect of being backed by substantial replacement production. Our Brewster stocks are essentially fixed and will be used in this campaign but they will not be replaced.
We have no dive bombers and only a limited number of ancient torpedo bombers. However our torpedo bombers are have relatively long ranges.
We have only a limited number of longer ranged fighters (Brewster B-339’s) to support the fleet and to escort torpedo bombers.
Our assessment of enemy air operations indicates that the enemy has a marked reluctance to engage in counter airbase operations. The enemy regards the fighter plane to be principal means of establishing air superiority.
Air Defence Plan
On Java we intend to put up enough resistance in the air that the enemy will have to consider conducting such a campaign against Java. If the enemy pursues a counter airbase strategy we will provide only enough air resistance over our airfields to disrupt their bomber formations; our primary weapon will be the anti-aircraft gun. By relying upon AAA we can lengthen the duration of time that we can maintain fighter defenses, thereby lengthening the campaign.
We will base the bulk of our units in four air bases (Batavia, Bandoeng, Madican, and Soerabaya) while we develop two airfields to improve their potential as backup air fields (Djojakarta, Tilitjap). By concentrating our air power we can concentrate our substantial flak units to cover them. Unfortunately it is more important to build up our beach defences
The core of our fighter defences will be the P-40 fighter. Brewster Buffaloes and Demons will provide surge air strength. Until we have evacuated the fleet or expended the torpedo bomber force, Brewster-339Ds will be reserved to support anti-naval operations only: naval air cover and torpedo bomber escort.
Bomber forces will be used primarily to attack enemy lodgments and captured ports on Java with the goal of neutralizing any enemy forces that land on Java. This will allow our land forces to annihilate enemy lodgments.
On occasion fighter and bomber forces will be surged to support anti-naval efforts by the torpedo bomber forces and by local surface naval forces.
Overall Plan of Operations
The enemy will be presented with a choice of actions: conduct an air campaign against Java, take a chance by risking their naval and land forces against Java, or a combination of these actions. We will seize opportunities to damage their heavy naval units. We will disrupt their minesweeping and landing forces. We will strike to eliminate each enemy lodgment in succession. If our fleet is forced to evacuate due to naval or base losses we can continue the campaign. If our supplies or aircraft strikes fall below the minimal level estimated to conduct an evacuation with some degree of safety we will commence evacuation operations starting with our pre-positioned transport fleet at Tilitjap.
Specific Allocations
The specific allocations of can be found on the attached Excel spreadsheet. It can be dumped into an email message by request.
The number of significant Allied tactical victories is short: one effective attack on tanker Task Force Two by a force of old destroyers led by an Omaha class cruiser; one tactical AAA victory over the Philippines; a couple of small scale air combat victories being the most significant. Singapore is about to fall. The enemy is actually closer to taking Rangoon than Singapore. Only two hexes on Luzon remain in Allied hands - Clark and Bataan. Enemy raiders and KB itself have been to the Eastern end of the South Pacific sea line of communications, badly disrupting its establishment. The Yellow River plain in China has been virtually lost; North China is more deeply penetrated than ever before seen; South China is in deep trouble; and Central China is severely contested. The enemy is landing on Kappa Kappa today, having taken Rabaul a few days ago. Tulagi and Shortlands also are already enemy occupied.
The original Allied concept was simple - in the SRA fall back and concentrate in Java, taking advantage of existing infrastructures and its central location; attempt to achieve unexpected air superiority over a strong ground defense force supported by strong naval forces. Enemy concentration on immediate operations offered some freedom of movement beyond them. Most of the Malaya Army has been successfully evacuated, resisted effectively only by submarines. [The enemy may have assigned air forces to oppose this, but if so they have failed utterly to strike, probably due to limited search assets generating contact information.] Virtually all available forces in the Indian Ocean have been sent to Java. Surviving elements of the Asiatic Fleet and virtually all of the FEAF have also made it out of the Philippines and are either in Java or nearby able to reach it. One of the Allied players (Chair 3) spent a man-week creating the attached spreadsheet and the text report here below about the initial forces committed to context Java and nearby seas - submitting it to the operational commander of the area (Chair 2).
Meanwhile, the Chair 1 player played a strategic supporting role. First, he sent a force of three battleships (after evading KB and repairing up damage from moving at high speed) to Java by indirect routing, on a course below Australia. This force crossed the dangerous South Pacific without detection and now is almost certain to arrive in time, and join the two capital ships already there (Prince of Wales and Repulse). Another battleship will leave Hawaii tomorrow, and Warspite is about three days out coming in after repairs at Bremerton. A sixth battleship is to leave Bremerton in six days. These ships might arrive in time for later phases of the campaign. A number of air and ground units with proper command assignments are trying to work their way to the Indian Ocean by crossing the South Pacific or by routing to Capetown from the Eastern USA or Panama. Again, these units may arrive in time for later participation in the campaign.
But the boldest aspect of the Chair 1 concept is just emerging. The context is that the US CV force is unfit for combat with the Kiddo Butai because of the aircraft compliment available to them - and also because it isn't concentrated. USS Yorktown has just entered the map from Panama, and the other three were hiding at Midway. Some of the air units are Buffalos, SBD-2s and TBDs considered inadequate in range for operation in carrier battles vs Japanese carriers, wholly apart from the problem of inferior numbers of carriers and squadrons compared with the Kiddo Butai. For this reason, the US carriers were directed not to engage - or even to betray their location by allowing aircraft from them to be spotted. The proposal actually risks breaking the latter order, but may not do so. The proposal - partially implemented one day ago in game time - splits the force into two parts. The Northern Special Transport Force departed Midway with two carriers (Enterprise and Saratoga under command of Saratoga's captain, who is very good) and all five squadrons of aircraft considered suitable for combat - that is with half the air units they potentially can carry and 5/8 of the number the two carriers normally carry. In company is 4 CA and all the long range destroyers available. They will attempt to extracate Lark Battalion - so the Australian Eighth Division can form up on Java - and other stranded Allied land units in or near the Bismarck Archepellego. The third carrier (Lexington) is returning to Hawaii, with the rest of the escorts, where Yorktown is to meet them to form up the Southern Special Transport Force. Lexington has five squadrons of aircraft on board, 2 of TBDs, 1 of Buffalos, and 2 of SBD-2s. Another squadron of TBDs remains at Midway and will attempt to go to Hawaii by another ship. Another squadron of SBD-2s flew to Johnston Island, where it loaded on an AK and is now also inbound to Hawaii. There the Buffalos will upgrade to F4F-3s, and the SBD-2s will attempt to upgrade to SBD-3s. Yorktown already has F4F-3s and two squadrons of SBD-3s - and yet another TBD squadron. The Southern Force will leave Hawaii with ten squadrons of aircraft, two of F4F-3s, three of SBD-3s, all on one ship. The other ship will carry five squadrons unable to fly on carriers. Exactly what is being sorted out, but candidates include P-40s which fought well in the first days of the war (one has 25 kills) and Marine SB2U-3 dive bomber squadrons, unable to fight from a carrier, but very useful from land bases. Other fast ships will carry land units and air units in company with the force, and it will go to Java by proceeding under Australia - assuming it can get across the South Pacific (which is infested with submarines, raiders and perhaps the KB itself). This route is thought to be possible because of long range search aircraft operating from islands along its route. Originally intended to escort two battleships, these are proceeding independently because they cruise significantly slower than the carriers - and because two of them can sail sooner than the carriers can depart Hawaii. The Northern Force routing is much more dangerous - and is depending on analysis that too many Japanese planes must be forward so rear area search must be minimal if it exists at all. In support of this movement is one tanker force and an independent AVD - which hopes to permit "eyes" forward from allied territory not yet occupied by the enemy combined with flying boats from NEI. The Northern Force will transit with carrier planes resting - only cruiser scouts will be searching. It is under orders to evade and not even to attack targets of opportunity - which are likely to be detected in the Japanese SLOC feeding Midway, Kwajalein etc.
Ultimately the two forces are to meet at Java, forming up with probably only 12 squadrons - all modern with the best range available - 4 of F4F-3s and 8 of SBD-3s. They may then consider carrier operations, but fears it would attract the KB to the area make this only a possibility. They may transit back under Australia to Fiji to contest enemy moves in that area, as was planned some time ago, possibly in company with a British carrier about to enter the map. The TBD squadrons will either be held until they can upgrade to TBFs - or they may be transported forward for use from land bases along with other Navy and Marine squadrons - either on the bases of he SLOC in the South Pacific - or on Java. The plan is still evolving and not all decisions are in place. One land unit likely to make the hop to Java with the Southern Force is the 41st Railway Coast Defense Regiment (outfitted with 16 eight inch rail guns and, formerly in reserve, 8 twelve inch CD mortars, the previous outfit of the same unit). Other ships are departing the US West Coast or Christmas island with air or ground units that may join the Southern Force at some point along its trek.

To accomplish our objective we will need to neutralize or defeat one landing while containing, or being prepared to contain, the other landing locations. The available force is not enough to defeat a determined landing effort at every possible landing location. Accordingly the plan must prioritize based upon best assessment of the enemy’s intentions and the geography of Java itself.
It is believed that the enemy will rule out the best ports, Batavia and Soerabaya, because they expect these positions to be strongly defended by coastal defence guns and fortifications. We rule out Tilitjap in the belief that the enemy will rule it out due its distance from air support, the potential hazards of reaching it through straits, and the likelihood that is a reinforcement collection point for our troops. Our conclusion is that while those locations are major operational targets they will not be landing beaches. Of the remaining beaches, Merak, Samaranga, and Probolinggo offer level 2 ports or larger. Samaranga is a special case in that it is a level 5 port and sits astride the island at its narrowest point; enemy possession of Samaranga could divide Java into two zones of resistance, cutting off the east from the evacuation port of Tilitjap. Tjepoe is of some interest: while it is a poor port, if captured there is a zone of poor communications around it that might allow the enemy to build up unmolested. Kalidjati is astride major rail and road lines east of Batavia but offers a poor port. Malang and its neighbor Probolinggo offer access to a complex of air bases and ports that spread to the eastern tip of the island but we note that a force in the mountains of hex (57,106) might prevent a linkup with enemy forces coming from Bali. We conclude that the enemy has two basic choices of their axes of attack: Merak and at least one port on the north coast, or Merak and Malang-Probolinggo. Unfortunately this list of possibilities is somewhat too large for us to consider containing all of them at the beachhead. Accordingly we must rely upon a powerful mobile force to compensate.
An enemy airborne assault is a real possibility. The likely targets are Buitzenzorg, Djojakarta, and Lamoedang.
Land Defence Plan
Given the above considerations, we plan to place substantial forces at the following locations: Merang/Batavia, Samarang, Tjoepe, and Malang. The forces at Samarang and Tjoepe will be strong and when alerted to level I will be placed in strategic movement mode for rapid transport to other landing zones. The Malang position is a critical position for us as we are essentially conceding the eastern peninsula of Java extending to the east of that location. The region east of Malang includes the port of Probolinggo, which in our view will be of high interest to the enemy. Probolinggo is the one port of level 2 or higher at which we will depend upon a concerted counterattack to remove the enemy from this position, should they capture it; it is closest to a trap position that we can manage to create. The port at the eastern tip of Java, Banjoewang and on the island east of Soerabaya, Sumenep, will be left undefended, however we will place a force in the mountains east of Pobolinggo to prevent a linkup with the eastern tip of Java.
The primary mission of the KNIL Java Division, the BA 18th Division and our small tank force is to eliminate an enemy lodgment of our choice. The land forces will defend the island by eliminating lodgments in succession.
Small forces will be detached to all non-used airfields to discourage an enemy airborne assault.
We will place the most weakened elements of our primary defence forces in non-malarial positions. This is a major reason that the Australians are slated for Malang and why the worst of the Indian brigades is slated to recover in Batavia.
Because air power is deadly to land forces once the enemy has landed it will be necessary to detach AA units allocated to base defense to our land forces.
Tilitjap will be the primary reinforcement and evacuation point.
Naval Defence Plan
Most naval units have been detailed to ‘forces’ which are squadrons of battleships or cruisers along with an attached destroyer escort. The naval defence plan consists of the following layered concepts:
1) Minefields will be placed according to priority list of expected invasion sites; we will not augment the existing mine defences at Batavia and Soerabaya.
2) AMc wills be deployed at defended invasion beaches to maintain minefields and to provide a sudden interference forces against enemy amphibious forces.
3) PT boat squadrons will be deployed near the invasion beaches to interfere with enemy minesweepers and amphibious forces.
4) Two light cruiser forces, called Interception Forces, consisting of our shortest ranged light cruiser and destroyer forces will be deployed at Batavia and Denpassar. Their mission is to interfere with enemy amphibious forces.
5) Submarine forces will be based at Batavia and Soerabaya. Their primary targets will be enemy carriers, battleships, and cruisers. We will be looking for occasional lucky hits to improve our numerical odds in other levels of this conflict.
6) The bulk of the fleet, consisting of our longer ranged forces (1st, 2nd, 3rd Battle Forces, 1st Cruiser Force, 1st and 2nd Light Cruiser Forces), will be based primarily at Soerabaya. Denpassar, Timor, Ambon, or Darwin will serve as alternate locations for either the entire force or detachments on missions. The missions of this force are:
a. To opportunistically engage enemy landing attempts against other islands along the approaches to Java.
b. Under substantial air support to challenge enemy naval forces in the immediate vicinity of Java.
7) One squadron of destroyers will be kept at Soebaya to detach destroyers for other missions such as tanker or minelayer escort.
8) Anti-naval air forces, torpedo bombers escorted by Brewster-339s, will be husbanded to strike high value naval targets: carriers, battleships, cruisers.
9) We will base substantial naval transport forces at Tilitjap to enable the first wave of the evacuation of Java, when that decision is made.
Air Defence Considerations
While we can field over two hundred fighters, less than half of them are first class fighters (P-40 variants) that have any prospect of being backed by substantial replacement production. Our Brewster stocks are essentially fixed and will be used in this campaign but they will not be replaced.
We have no dive bombers and only a limited number of ancient torpedo bombers. However our torpedo bombers are have relatively long ranges.
We have only a limited number of longer ranged fighters (Brewster B-339’s) to support the fleet and to escort torpedo bombers.
Our assessment of enemy air operations indicates that the enemy has a marked reluctance to engage in counter airbase operations. The enemy regards the fighter plane to be principal means of establishing air superiority.
Air Defence Plan
On Java we intend to put up enough resistance in the air that the enemy will have to consider conducting such a campaign against Java. If the enemy pursues a counter airbase strategy we will provide only enough air resistance over our airfields to disrupt their bomber formations; our primary weapon will be the anti-aircraft gun. By relying upon AAA we can lengthen the duration of time that we can maintain fighter defenses, thereby lengthening the campaign.
We will base the bulk of our units in four air bases (Batavia, Bandoeng, Madican, and Soerabaya) while we develop two airfields to improve their potential as backup air fields (Djojakarta, Tilitjap). By concentrating our air power we can concentrate our substantial flak units to cover them. Unfortunately it is more important to build up our beach defences
The core of our fighter defences will be the P-40 fighter. Brewster Buffaloes and Demons will provide surge air strength. Until we have evacuated the fleet or expended the torpedo bomber force, Brewster-339Ds will be reserved to support anti-naval operations only: naval air cover and torpedo bomber escort.
Bomber forces will be used primarily to attack enemy lodgments and captured ports on Java with the goal of neutralizing any enemy forces that land on Java. This will allow our land forces to annihilate enemy lodgments.
On occasion fighter and bomber forces will be surged to support anti-naval efforts by the torpedo bomber forces and by local surface naval forces.
Overall Plan of Operations
The enemy will be presented with a choice of actions: conduct an air campaign against Java, take a chance by risking their naval and land forces against Java, or a combination of these actions. We will seize opportunities to damage their heavy naval units. We will disrupt their minesweeping and landing forces. We will strike to eliminate each enemy lodgment in succession. If our fleet is forced to evacuate due to naval or base losses we can continue the campaign. If our supplies or aircraft strikes fall below the minimal level estimated to conduct an evacuation with some degree of safety we will commence evacuation operations starting with our pre-positioned transport fleet at Tilitjap.

RE: RHS Test 8A: 7 January 1942
There are indications the Kiddo Butai may be SE of Wake Island. Yesterday Japanese destroyers attacked a submarine well East of Kwajalein. Today carrier planes twice attacked a submarine NE of yesterdays ASW action. Since that area is not one in which Japanese transports should be using to feed island bases, and since destroyers and carrier aircraft are associated with KB but not line of communications convoys, and since the CVL force is in the neighborhood of Borneo - it must be the KB is headed more or less for Midway or Johnston Island.

RE: RHS Test 8A: 10 January 1942 Port Moresby Falls to first assault.
OK - so what happened to those USN carriers between Truk and Saipan, anyway?
Otherwise, we have substantial numbers of Japanese task groups in the Malacca Strait
as well as the Makassar Strait, and Port Moresby fell to the first assault by a
division sized force.
