RE: RHS Test 9A: 14 Jan 1942: Payoff!

Post by el cid again »

This turn features numbers of land battles won by the Japanese - in Burma,
China and the Philippines - and yet other locations falling by default -
together with the victory points and economic assets of all those locations.
[Virtually every location in RHS has at least resources or potential resources
if uninhabited, and most have some king of industry and infrastructure] These
fall into two groups - those undefended and those hit by proper combined arms
forces - often with air and/or naval gunfire support - often with preparation
on previous days. Indeed, where the next assaults will occur can be seen by
where such preparation is going on already. Both the dai ichi kiddo butai
(one carrier striking force of CVs) and the dai ni kiddo butai (two carrier
striking force of CVLs) remain out of action - repairing from long operations
in the first instance or from battle damage in the second - so these are all
battles with land based air support.

RE: RHS Test 9A: 23 Jan 42: Battle of the Java Sea: How ABDA Won!!

Post by el cid again »

The keys to early war Allied successes are paying attention to fundamentals:

1) Pick points of logistical strength to assemble unexpectedly strong concentrations
of force, air power in particular;

2) Maintain a "good recon picture" so, regardless of the direction or nature of the threat,
you get reports of the enemy approach;

3) When the enemy does approach, throw in the kitchen sink optimized for the situation;

4) Consider using even obsolete biplanes which have low performance when they are appropriate;
in this instance three different types, all torpedo armed, were set up by land bombers and flying
boats;

5) Have submarine and surface forces in position to follow up with attacks on cripples the following
day (which hasn't yet happened - but which will happen tomorrow).

The NEI offers unique opportunities for maintaining a good recon picture. The Allies should always
exploit it.

RE: RHS Test 9A: 25 Jan 42: Battle of the Andaman Islands!

Post by el cid again »

I told the Allied Chair Three player I was concerned that enemy submarines and recon
has spotted his forces at Port Blair. But he believed we could get in faster than they
could react in force. Turned out, we could not. Both ships bringing in a coast defense
unit were sunk outright, and HMS Exeter is in such bad shape I doubt she will make it to
a major repair location.

The enemy also elected to take down two key Allied air bases - at Palembang and at Kewlin
in China - as well as to engage in major land battles of attrition - simply because the Allies
will lose those battles sooner if they suffer enough attrition (in four figures). It appears
14th Army intends to take Bataan soon, and two different armies in China intend to take Sian
and Changsha - also soon - even if it is expensive.

RE: RHS Test 9A: 26 Jan 42: Battle of the Andaman Islands Continues!

Post by el cid again »

Although it is not easy to get distant air strikes against ships to work,
the one time it becomes fairly likely is when task groups have been detected
and tracked in the area for days. This was one of those days - and the
long range Betty's and Nell's lived up to their reputation. As well, submarines
continue to plague the harbor: so far three have been identified. Of three units
sent to reinforce the islands, the only survivors were on two cruisers which
did not unload any of them - because they had changed from fast transport to
surface combat task force assignment. Otherwise, a fourth Dutch unit, a
base force with coast defense guns and a spotter, ground defense elements
and air support elements, is all that is left of the second wave of troops sent
to beef up the location.

RE: RHS Test 9A: 2 Feb 42: 2nd Battle of the Java Sea Continues!

Post by el cid again »

Got to give them credit, the Japanese tried to steal a march, at sea,
by invading Java early. It didn't work out. Yesterday, in confusion,
the ABDA surface force stumbled onto the tail end of their invasion
force - sinking the second wave with an entire brigade - between
surface action and air strikes. Today, in a maximum effort, the
Allies split their force by fuel state. The main body - with long range
ships - came in on the most likely enemy objective - if they came
strait on - a point on the Northern Coast of Java. The Japanese,
thinking fast ships could surely cover two hexes and land, kept it simple.
The heavy Allied units were, in fact, intercepted by a Japanese heavy
covering force of similar size - both had two battleships. The two
biggest more or less sank each other - one on each side. But two RNN
light cruisers and 4 RNN destroyers - with a fuel state that would slow
down the main body - stopped for a minimal refuel at Kilatjati (the historical
IJA landing site). They came on later in time - and disrupted the landing
force - sending it away with the loss of a thousand troops in the first action.
The follow up Allied air strikes, however, did not fare well: the Allies
believed the CVL force was off Noumea (where intel reports put it yesterday)
and they had never sighted it with a proper report in the Coral Sea. Its
fighters decimated the Allied aircraft - and its Vals also hurt the RNN
cruiser destroyer flotilla. All in all, an exciting night battle sequence,
in which Allied radar gave the Allies a significant advantage - resulting
in a tactical as well as an operational victory; the loss of the biggest
battleship in the world and serious harm to a major landing force.
