RE: What could possibly go wrong? Wargamr(A) vs njp72(J)
The turn is gone the deed is done the reply will come within a short time.
My opponent surmised I might wait to rebuild some CV support.
I replied that I have an unsinkable carrier right off his coast, the USS Kunashiri.
Sure, I could have sat back and bombed him for a few months and been much better off but that isnt exactly my specialty...

Astounding to see all this action, and both sides getting their licks in.

Like I told NJP. I could have sat back and bombed him for a few months and been a lot better off but what the hell :] We are starting our 2nd game so I am trying to accelerate things although who knows, I might just step in it big here.
5 divisions plus 2 armor regiments plus 4 anti-tank units plus FLAME TANKS!!! WOOOOHOOOO!!!! Plus plus plus. My cap and LRCap is pretty light but I can do LRCAP from 2 hexes so the attrition should not be horrible. If this doesnt work and my troops are left stuck on the beaches it could be a disaster.
These are just the east coast troops and have nothing to do with the preparation for landing on the west coast beaches. I am getting a force put together to sack canton and then maybe take out Hong Kong as well and would like to take down Shanghai before that set of invasions. Also, I need to get the current transports over to that area.

RE: What could possibly go wrong? Wargamr(A) vs njp72(J)
November 13, 1944
Over 2300 AV landed on the beaches on D-Day. The carriers are going to rush in and defend at 0 hexes. If they take a beating then so be it as long as the attack succeeds. If the troops get hung up on the beaches then I could be in real trouble. However, he has less than 30K troops with 1 Division (the 77th) and about 9 other units against most of 5 divisions and lots of armor.
Even if he has 700AV which I seriously doubt it is a clear hex so the forts will be his only other benefit.
On a side note, the remaining surface fleet of Japan along with his carriers showed up about 10 hexes west of Shanghai in an attack posture. I am not sure what he is going for but there are 2 badly damaged ships in Wenchow that he would like to finish off. Moved over 100 fighters for CAP.
We will know within hours....
Here is the combat for the 13th.

Over 2300 AV landed on the beaches on D-Day. The carriers are going to rush in and defend at 0 hexes. If they take a beating then so be it as long as the attack succeeds. If the troops get hung up on the beaches then I could be in real trouble. However, he has less than 30K troops with 1 Division (the 77th) and about 9 other units against most of 5 divisions and lots of armor.
Even if he has 700AV which I seriously doubt it is a clear hex so the forts will be his only other benefit.
On a side note, the remaining surface fleet of Japan along with his carriers showed up about 10 hexes west of Shanghai in an attack posture. I am not sure what he is going for but there are 2 badly damaged ships in Wenchow that he would like to finish off. Moved over 100 fighters for CAP.
We will know within hours....
Here is the combat for the 13th.

RE: What could possibly go wrong? Wargamr(A) vs njp72(J)
Hokkaido - November 1944
NJP has 1000 AV in the jungle/rough hex west of Bihoro. It will be a tough fight through here. I have troops moving both northwest and southwest to flank this position.
In the mean time I plan on expanding the airfield at Bihoro to level 9. If I have too much trouble on the ground I will level Sapporo from close range and any other significant industry and just leave the Japanese troops stranded here while I move on to the main island.

RE: What could possibly go wrong? Wargamr(A) vs njp72(J)
Kyushu - November 1944
Troops continue to build up and take islands on the west side of Japan. Plans to take 3 more are in progress. This is to bide time while a major operation goes in against canton and another prepares to go against Shanghai.
Once these are complete it will be time for a full invasion of the island on the west end.
Point wise I am at 1.48 of his score so there is a long way to go for me to win. I need somewhere in the range of 27,000 vp's currently.

RE: What could possibly go wrong? Wargamr(A) vs njp72(J)
China November 1944
2 pockets of resistance have been eliminated. 3 more remain with one being a lone division toward the west side of the map. The other resistance is in the main cities in China. 3000 AV are massing at Canton and close to 5000 if not more are near Shanghai.
The Chinese troops are filtering through china relieving all the other nationalities of their duties and those troops are moving south and east to prep for an invasion of mainland japan after removing resistance.
NJP has somewhere in the range of 300,000 - 400,000 troops stuck in China, most of them out of supply. He is turtling them up in wooded/rough hexes with no road access which is fine with me. It just lets me get further onto mainland Japan before the game calls the match ;]
