Spooky:)(A) Vs Terp(JPN) a begginers Clash

[Przemcio231]

This is an AAR about game where im am the Allies and Terp play's as JPN, We are at about 15th of Januart 1942 and as for now the following Happened.

Pacific - The War begun with the Japs Bombing Pearl of course lots of planes destroyed on the ground and on BB sunk im not sure wich. The rest of the BB's got damged and send to West Coast for Reapair only USS Arizona reamained in Pearl as she sustained only 5% sys damage... the US Navy quickly Retaliated when USS Lexington lunch her air group on the Jap TF near Wake resulting in sinking probably entire TF... after that Lady's Lex planes accidently spoted Jap replenishment TF meant for the KB of course most of it now rests on the buttom of the Ocean... as for now the only big US Navy op here was the supplying Midway and Wake in this Op i run onto a part of the KB as he divided it sending a part of it to the Salomons... any way he also captured Baker Is and im planing to retake that... any way i spoted the part of the KB near Johnston Is and im thinking about hitting it with my 4 CV's from Pearl... i wounder will it Work

South East Pacific - Here the Japs are making some good progres as he captured most of the Salomons and New Brittain with Rabaul... i can't do anything to stop him right now my positions on Fidzi and Numaea are strong reinforced with some 2E bombers now i will transfer here few enginiers that showed up in SF to build up some bases...

Australia and New Guinea - Port Moresby is secured now as i moved in there the 24th FG winthrawn from Manila and those P-40 proved invaluble there when the Part of KB sailed between NG and Aus and bombed my supply ships bringing in some more supply to PM lucky form me the struk empty AK's so leses were minimal... and 24thFG shoot down about 30 Kate's and Val's during those attack as they were unescroted[:D] in Darwin a squadron of B-17's is conducting daily raids on Ambonia to shut down the Airfields there as for now i only encountered about 20 Zeros and Cloude's from CVL Zuicho stationig there. All of North NG is in the Jap hands he also captured Lae and Salamua i have units in the PM and Gili-Gili[:)]

DEI - Here the Japs were able to capture most of the Borneo and northern part of Celebes + the island wich cut DEI from NG and Australia i have some Forces on Timor and this is the Only place in the DEI that i want to Defend... all naval Assets of ABDA were sent to Australia togheter with Force Z from Singapure all advible supply was transferet from Java to Darwin and Timor some subs are conductin Patrols in the Area but with no succes so far...

Philipines they are falling im holding Batan , Clark and Manila + some in south Luzon there are heavy fighting over Clark as for now im holding firm but my supplys are running out i think i will be able to stand my ground there till the end of the month. the rest of the Philipines are unocupied by either my or his forces...

Malaya Here heavy fighting in Johore Bahru this base just N from Singapure im Repulsing attack after attacl but the japs have 4 to 1 adavtage in soldiers so i thing i will be overrun and force to the singapure soon...

Birma Jap Blitzkrieg was stooped one hex N of Mulehim or something like that a base N of Tavoy here Briman forces reinforced with Indian Armor Brig and one Indian division were able to force the japs to witthraw and the RAF is bombing the reatriting Japs, Rangoon saw some heavy A2A fighting when the AVG clashed with the Jap Army Air Force my forces emerged victorius...

China Not much happening the only place where the japs are attacking is Yunen but over 50.000 brave Chinise soldiers is holding the place...[:D]

[Przemcio231]

High Alert Japs are invading Wake ageain but lucky for my my CD fired and damaged all the jap ships:

Coastal Guns at Wake Island, 82,63, firing at TF 182
TF 182 troops unloading over beach at Wake Island, 82,63

474 Coastal gun shots fired in defense.
Japanese Ships
CL Katori, Shell hits 28, on fire
AK Canton Maru, Shell hits 2, on fire
AP Kaito Maru, Shell hits 11, on fire
AK Indus Maru, Shell hits 9, on fire, heavy damage

Japanese ground losses:
848 casualties reported
Guns lost 3

Allied ground losses:
89 casualties reported
Guns lost 1

In Response CV TF leaved Pearl and its steaming to Wake i will have to be carfoul as part of the KB is spoted heading E south of Johnston... the other part of KB is spotted between NG and Aus but no CV's in it either my recon is crappy or he's up to no good so my CV need to be carfoul... Japs landed in Buna but their numbers are to low to threaten PM. In China brave Chinise pilots achived a great victory ageainst the jap terrorists scoring 3 to 1 ratio[:D]

But the Air Base was hit only 2 times so no problem...
In other Fronts my Daily Air Raids over Mulaim(?) for the first time encountered some resistance... 4 Zeros tryed to stop my bombers and all of them are dead[:D] In 2 Days all of my US CV's will be in Pearl and Operation Sweep will commence... the main goal will be to track the part of the KB that is lurking near Hawaii... Some jap ships are spotted moving between Aus and NG i wounder if it is the other part of the KB... There are some plans to liberate Baker Is... one US Marine Div is in PH loaded on ships but i just wounder if its not to early to start such an action... [:D]

[Przemcio231]

1/19-20/1942

Nothing Exeptional happend during those days... usual "Washing Machine Charlie" visits over Clark and Singapore also Manila was bombed... My big Succes is that i forced Japs to stop atacking Clark , Johore Bahru and Yunen and start to bombard my positions... maybe i will be able to last few weeks more[:D] In the Pacific i noticed that "Big E" is at sys damage 11 so it will return to Pearl for Maintinance as i can't find parts of KB anywhere... Now i noticed some Base forces in SF so the will be Send to Island in the South Pac to establish some bases there[:D] another Base Force is moving to PM to support the Aviation there... my opponent is taking Luisiade Arch Islands... im curius what is he up too...

[Przemcio231]

1/21/1942
Another quiet turn my forces were able to fight of a stalmate in Clark , Yunan , Johore Bahru some daily air raids on Singapure and Manila any way nothing new... Some Base Forces and Aviation Reg left SF direction Numaea and another Australian Base force will be unloaded in the PM tommorow i hope that it will work... i also sended a Squadron of B-25's to PM by Ship any way a single AK will also deliver Supply to Wake i hope it will not get sunk... My plan for now is to transfer as much Supply , Fuel and Troops to SouthWest Pac and begin any ofensives from this Area i need to send some Naval units to the Area i think Arizona , 2-3 Ca's and about 10 DD's will be send to the area... Japs held Baker and i think of Retaking it... also a TF consisting 2 CV's is sailing into this Waters... the other CV's are reapairing in Pearl...

[Przemcio231]

1/22/1942

Ehhh another Boring turn usual stuff in usual places... but one thing for Sure the Japs are up to something BiG[:-][:-][:-] need to take some precousions... first of all:
-Forces in the South West Pacific will be Reinforced with 10 DD's + 3 Cl's it will give me like 2CV's BB , BC few CA's and CL's + about 30 DD's in that Area + numerous SS wich will act as Recon Units some Base Forces are beaing relocated to the Area so i plan to build a base in Esprito Santo to hause some Patrol Boats in China im beeing Pushed into the Hanghow Area... nothing serious...

[Przemcio231]

1/23/1942

Another boring day only interesting thing is that my bombers hitting jap Division in China Encountered 40 Zero CAP and most of them were killed[:@][:@][:@][:@][:@][:@][:@]
I spotted Part of KB near PM ageain but my convoy did make it and now i got more units there to support larger Air Force there[:)]

Few relative quiet days... Johore Bahru has fallen but i was aware of that happening so now my only forces in Malaya are in Singapure... Clarks is Still holding as well as Yunan so every thing is good[:)] In Burma the Japs stoped their offensive and it appears that i was able to slow them down... in the DEI some jap landings on some minor bases between Timor and Java.
