Allies press out of the bridgehead but not without losses.

20/7/45

Nagasaki has fallen. For a decisive auto, he needs two more V location cities before 1/9/45. I don't think he can do it as he is doing too much elsewhere.

Plus my Kamikaze and subs are giving him a hard time, his supply corridor is still too narrow. Today, two large Kaiten seem to have struck Bunker Hill and caused an ammo storage explosion.

21/7/45

Some general interest screen.

I still have a strong navy hiding in DEI. We are planning a big raid with the remaining units from J and DEI in the next few days on allied bomber bases. He is building for a big final push. We plan to disrupt that.

He has one victory location and is in the hexes of 2 more, which, if he takes before 1/9/45, will trigger auto victory provided VP are better than 1.75/1, which they are - it's going to be close. After that, in this mod, the best allied result is a minor.

1/8/25

Soviets wake up, and we will bomb Vlad tomorrow.

Huge battles rage for air supremacy over Western Japan. We are running out of planes...

We plan a Ten Go op very soon to bombard Okinawa with, yes, the Yamato and others. First, we are running our CV under bad weather to make a massive interdiction of his supply lanes and divert his carriers away from my Okinawa opp.

4 and 5th Aug 45

Raid by us on Vlad

Our remaining CV pass into the central PAC from DEI to interdict the supply line and cause a diversion for out Ten Go opp with remaining surface units.

Massive Allied raids on Hiroshima - disorganised and suffered losses but caused a lot of damage. Got to stop them soon or lose in short order.

Musashi is sunk in port at Hiroshima - not sure how??

patch soon, just waiting on a couple of players to make sure a fix works.

10 The Aug 45

BB TF Fails to make breakthrough for bombardment and both BB take several 12 inch hits for only one in return - very annoying

In the South out of DEI my CV ambush many transports before fleeing again.

allied air sweeps start over Tokyo.

Well, September 45 is nearly here. Sweeps over Tokyo continue, but the bombers are not risked. The Allied landings are bogged down. He lacks 2 V locations ( which are attacking ) before 1/9 for auto victory.
