No. All units are fully supplied, morale is high, disruption and fatigue are low.
Swift's units should be suppressed as he has been bombarded from the air
and sea. The fortifications have been reduced to zero.
Having said that, I'm probably just being impatient. I can't see his units surviving
for any more than a few days!

I've always found Rabaul a slightly tougher nut to crack compared to some bases. I definitely order the POW's on a Death March afterwards [;)]

Maybe that's why they refuse to surrender?
I wonder what would happen if I offer the allied troops
a trip to Bangkok if they surrender now? [:D]

From having been to Bangkok i'd throw my rifle down straight away.

Hell if you offered Ko Samui as a destination i'd even give you my rifle [:D]

A good bombardment in Palembang but what was I- 26 thinking?
Instead of torpedoing a merchant, it surfaced and engaged in a gunnery battle!
The merchant was sunk but I-26 has been damaged and will probably not
maKE IT HOME!

after attacking this city with 6 heavy ART units, 4 ENG units, 2 ARM units and around 15 INF units - do you really wonder why the city is damaged ( besides I also had an ENG unit there- they may have put some demolition charges here and there [:'(] )

ORIGINAL: swift
Thr Battle of Yenen ends but with a high price for the Japanese.
They are left victorious over a city in ruins!

after attacking this city with 6 heavy ART units, 4 ENG units, 2 ARM units and around 15 INF units - do you really wonder why the city is damaged ( besides I also had an ENG unit there- they may have put some demolition charges here and there [:'(] )


Nothing a few coats of paint won't fix though! [:D]
