Wow. I'm as surprised as you.

I thought for sure you'd cause a mass surrender. (one of my peeves about allied troops vs Japanese troops) I'm guessing that number of vehicles on the allied side is what made the difference. If he had one or two tank divisions, they'd be quite powerful. They don't tend to get disablements like troops do, either. The other thing that could be happening is that his troops may be at 90 or more exp from fighting so much and your manchuria troops may be a lot less (I'm assuming most of them have just started fighting a lot).

bc

Or perhaps his troops were lacking supplies?

I think the defender gets twice the strength due to urban terrain plus air and sea attacks have disrupted many of the Japanese ground units. Plus my prep points are all pretty low.

Ouch.. it's urban? .. No surprise then. Urban terrain grants a 4x bonus for the defender

4X? I had thought it was only 2X. Do you know if this applies to a defender when it doesn't control the hex?

The subs are all stuck at one day even though there is over 5,000 naval production points stored up.

Note to self: halt production of all Ha-class Jap subs as soon as they are eligible to be halted.

EDIT: I noticed that the Ha-206 is missing from the picture, did that sub get produced and appear normally?

No, the Ha-206 isn't included in the OOB. It's not a big deal as far as bugs go, but I wanted to see how much the Type 22 radar improved sub performance.

Did Everybody go off on vacation?

Your public await you

I have (had) a China only game with Dude (he was clobbering me). He sent me a note that he needed a WitP hiatus. His last login date to the boards was Oct. 8.

So it might be a little while longer yet.

Just FYI.
