As you can see I am low on Zekes, and one carrier will not even fly planes as the CVL that was damaged in the SF raid had it planes fly to the Kaga, and thus is 20 planes over max. So it's groups will not fly. So the death of KB is here, but the went out with a bang. I am just glad I did not have to face the uber death star, it would have look silly. This turn I did shot down over 100 P38's as see flew them on bombing missions. I LCAP'd Toyko and shot a bunch of planes down.
"Ours was the first revolution in the history of mankind that truly reversed the course of government, and with three little words: 'We the people.' 'We the people' tell the government what to do, it doesn't tell us." -Ronald Reagan
over 100 P38's as see flew them on bombing missions. I LCAP'd Toyko and shot a bunch of planes down
fb's should not be able to escort the same range as they bomb that IS silly.. and why would my 38's that kill Zeta's palnes notdrop there loads and do it again? this model is not too good in this respect.. fortunatly my pools are gfull something like 2000 38's!
I had some weak cvl's and cv in Pearl.. they sortied out and found this group first .. the rest of my backups are around the corner and DS is soon to appear.. we are planing on bombing hte liferafts!

WOW, 4 kami hits.. but then again with fow??? took very little damage..
the rest of my fleets will engage soon.. I probably will lose a small carrier if he lances another lucky kami attack
in other news COSTAL china.. near HK Canton was seized by troops of the combined SEA force pool, ALLIED FORCES SUPREEM CAOMMANDER GEN D MAC STATES: " WE have a unique opertunity to sieze HK, ass well as bag 450k fleeing out of food JApanees troops...
The Chineese greater wusan front Army is already digging in in Canton nezxt to this hex.. so reinforcments from there wil lbe unable to enter the disputed invasion hex.. uprail the JAps hav several units.. but it is sure they will not invade.. as PI holds ove 35 combat units that could easily land upline and cut off there retreat too.... after this modified attack...
from the origoanl Springboard scheduled for 11 01 and scraped.. now renamed switchblade the Allies hope to deal a death blow to the remaining Burma and AJp 25th army.. MALY AREA...
If this is aas successfull as it could be.. Z will be hjard preesssed to not draw reserves from MAnchuria to dfend the coast .. and if Shangi is eventually liberated.. this provides another large point boost plus an air base..
note several new cv.. bb and B29 are coming out soon.. in teh next 2 months.. expect attacks to increase in MArch - Aug culminatiting with a win lose decision on the Hisatorical vj day

On land things continue on pace as HAnoi completesurronded and facing overwhelmig air aattacks dropped a fort level against troops from the Viet area army.. Chineese troops advancing into Canton..that now is the HK temple of doom! 400 k Jap troops..
Multiple inbound Allied Divisions armored and artillery units..
Z still has some BB's.. I may need to sortie my CVE in this region to stop him...
it is a concern
ok, jsut as the DS shows it looks like no miore flats.. BB's in reports may be oilers.. appears Z also may have used some CA's.. MY goal is to sink everything.. he has mad it to around Dutch H
HAnio drops another notch.. Chineese are shelling Canton.. civilians fleeing everywhere..
more troops land at contested hex next to Canton .. I found a missing CV, sentit up to Seattle a tur nor three before THE RAID..
The public uproar has died down some afterthis shocker, and the photos of JAp carriers sinking being releassed to the press have had a calming affect on moral... few dockworkers where injured, and although many DD and two Carriers where lost, this is far from the worst defeat of the war, One admiral is qouted as stating, off the record he wished this had happened months earlier because we have been chasing thos guys around jap waters and having to cover every invasion has been a challenge..
Japaneese spies working for the Rusians, commies of course have sent info to us that a major BB raid against our beachhead in china is under planning stages.. resources are being sent there as we speak...
score now approaching even.. 4k behind the great Z! Tokyo still giving it up to my bombers and just T alone will bring my close to 2-1 it will be interestingto see how well HK/ Canton does after the very harrd time I had attacking MAnilla, iinitially at least
The unit shows yellow, but in reality there are more US troosp in that hex near cantoon, and more coming.. Major offensive to seize castol ports and Air bases from which to remove JAps from the continent and also support Island invasions[>:]
Points closing on 4 k deficet.. after we sink his ships in Northern pac.. and take out HK canton.. wqee will be ahead.. unless he gets me 262's and abombs and horton long rang bomgbers and nukes Seattle!
Kirishimi and Hiei about to be gooners if they have not already sunk, a lone cvl was found [:D]
not much remaining not on fire, but my guys neeed the practice, even Wisconsin, heading into port to refuel got a alucjky night engagement and sunk a CA and took no hits
another turn of bombingthe remnants.. two BB''s take massive damage.. I think the japs are using that same stuff the fishing industry uses on small boats.. so that the boat istelf cannot take on water and sink!!!! Multiple torps now into each.. most of my fleets getting a top of at the alution gas stations![X(]
China is now the theater... Many units are still in PI, and IWO, but a good amount of those still in South East Asia area.. Viet army.. have been moved to Taan and Hanoi.. as Hanoi fell, soon those guys will be released to attack Canton too.. the US troops should be suffisient to dislodge the japs in the non base hex along the coast.. other news..
Essex made SF with apx 30 sys damage, I think she had 8 before the KAmi hits...
after another round the Hiei and Kirishima go down, no kidding I thing they each had over 50 bomb hits and over 10 torps.. sure are tough to sink!
some DD and ca remnants, and one cv "report" probably a oiler are all that is left...
more troops poor into China, Z manages to tangle with my escorts over Tokyo, ratio 1-1, a "win" for him in points but a "win" for me in pilots and planes, I seem to have no limit, 400 p38's still in the pool
new 29 are being released from the training pool in the next month.. these new GROUPS !!! will need a home any suggestions?
After we get through training them on the china coast I was thinking Okinawa does look interesting.. Z's fleets never have shown up near china, but then again I have 4k airplanes in and aroung the action there!
Z triumphs also by repulsing an attack near Canton .. but evan at 0-1 od in a non base hex he took higher losses, I believe these troops are going to be hard pressed to hold out for long...
current deficat closing on 3k
Japanese Ships
DD Hatakaze, Shell hits 1, and is sunk
Allied Ships
BB North Carolina
BB Wisconsin
DD Braine
DD John Hood
More troops poor into China, estamites are under 2k in Hanio, the defeated troops there will when finally knocked out will releas a new group able to reach canton, last attack showed 500k jap troops! the must be really hungry, I would hate to be a rat or other edible in that morase!
British area force overrun HAnio, now moving to join their Chineese allies beseiging Canton/Hong Kong.. the land hex nextdoor to Canton also cleared, marines and armor spearheading move toward Sachow.. naval air granded as few targets remain, now to figure out what to do with my deathstars...I should be able to put over 2k of ds air by summer 45 I really really want to attack Korea[:-]
Us NAval forcesarguing for an attack against enemy fleetts in port, MAc arguing for more bombing of military targets in China, Joint Chiefs advisory counsul looking at possible alternatives to Okinawa as report of enemy troops may be as high as 200k
Ground unit bugs remain consistent in this game, I cannot get units to move while others in same hex and supply state will??? so must pput all to all move , then wait one turn and rmove orders to those you dod not want to fallow, else it screws the rutine AAAUUURGGH!
another jap city burns, current deficit 3k, over 3k in Strategic points
we are now in the 2600 deficite range, More troops still pooring into china, first 51's showing up now.. nice long range fighters[:D]
Cantoon looks like it may take some time to take.. but those troops will not be available to help where he needs them up the coast...
In other news?? notreaqlly anything.. my air power is bombing the ground units... after 50 days of this they will be toast, and my strategic forces continue to raid Tokyo and cities nearby.. until we get larger airfields they are using Iwo...
