Playtest of Pacific at War 3 25 14

Here's a T30 look at Burma now. I've only just now gotten all my units into positions on the front line. If Tom has one more unit
I'll be outflanked. And I think maybe I can hold here for a while. I don't have any units coming to the rescue besides two divisions
from Malaya that are on their way here now. But they won't be much help since they are tired and worn out.

Here's the Mongolia situation. There's a Chinese unit sitting on the bridge over the river into northern China so it's
looking like there's no bridge repair going to happen soon. And supply is so low in this area that my units are
going to be low budget for a while.

[larryfulkerson]

I drove my DD's up to the port and some Allied planes dissappeared in a bad intercept accident.

Here's another Jap assault of Port Moresby:

[larryfulkerson]

New turn. Here's what's happening on the border near Bangkok now. The Allies are pushing and shoving their way across
the river and I'm having trouble containing all of them.

[larryfulkerson]

Here's the same view in T33. The Allies are breaking out and pushing the Japs backward. There's one particularly strong
Allied division that is spearheading the whole thing and the Japs don't have anything comparable at hand. It's not looking
very good on this front.

[larryfulkerson]

Here's the situation in T34. It's just getting worse and worse. The Japs are going to have to pull back and get organized
for this assault. This is big. This is bigger than Singapore all of a sudden.

[larryfulkerson]

The front lines in south China are getting ragged. I'm gaining a hex here and there but it's mostly static.

[larryfulkerson]

Things are stalled near Manila also. I've introduced a tank unit and it gained a hex but now it's out of supply.

[thomasharvey]

One more hex taken and the northern Japanese in Burma will be cut off against the river and in the bag for the allies. Allies on the march!

[larryfulkerson]

Here's how the Burma invasion has developed now. The northern group is out of supply and looks to be doomed. This is a
game changer.

[larryfulkerson]

Here's what it looks like in T36. The Allies really ARE on the march.

[larryfulkerson]

South China looks pretty much the same the last couple of turns. Fighting is still going on and the Japs are pushing and
shoving but there's not much movement going on lately.

[larryfulkerson]

Things are happening in North China. I've repaired a bridge over the river but the Chinese are blocking access. My boys are
way too tired and worn out to attempt to push onto the busted bridge to fix it. In other words, north China is still inaccessable.

[larryfulkerson]

This is the face of Borneo now. I've just now evacuated Kuching via sea and landed the land contingent at Brunei to try to
hold onto my foothold on the island.

[larryfulkerson]

I just noticed a potential disaster. An Allied column is marching toward the river in an area where I have no Jap troops. This
theatens Hanoi and eventually Saigon. Not good. And there's no Japanese reserve to draw troops from.

[larryfulkerson]

Here's the result of an assault on Singapore. It went nowhere.

[larryfulkerson]

Okie dokie, new turn. I dropped some paratroops in the path of the invading Allied column. It's not much and it won't contain
anybody very long so I still have a problem in that area.

[larryfulkerson]

Here's the situation in T38. I've managed to salvage some units and form a front line of sorts. It's not going to hold very long
and then there's the incursion near the paratroops that will only get worse. Tom is doing a good job.

[larryfulkerson]

New Turn, new moves. Here's the situation now. Tom is breaking out and defeating my Japs.
