so it's been a month in-game since I last posted in all honestly not much has happened that was significant there were battleships lost planes lost but nothing game-changing. but now more recently several things have happened number one I have left singers with air and naval forces due to the fact that my opponent has said he has over 200 warships in the area compared to my let's say 150 and I believe I would have got decimated. in fact the day I decided to leave all his ships went in for a bombardment lucky for me as I believe it could have been a fact of equal casualties but I come out at a loss and the game possibly could have been over.

number 2 I've encircled a large number of the Australian army





and now I'm debating if I should attack it now or wait for my air power to dwindle it down some more my main problem is I believe this will be top priority one for Andy to save or face losing so many units that he can only focus on one major offensive with unit's he has. So I think I'll attack this turn set all my air unit's in the area to attack and see what happens.
But I want to hear any thoughts on this if anyone has any. I think I'll wait at least 2 days for another div to arrive before I attack.

so I have plans atm to try and retake Malaya back I'm planning invasions all along the coast of eastern Malaya, Kota Bharu. Singora, Nakon si have at least around 1 div each stationed their except Kota it seems only a tank BN is their.

atm there are 53 units north of singers I hope to invade exactly when he is about to march into singers I have level 9 forts
6 divs, 1 brigade, 2 rgts, 2 nav guards, verus

53 units with 387000 troops, 4490 guns, 5857 vehicles.

if I can invade after he's crossed the river I should be set his units will be weakened and will need time to march back and get on rails I hope by then I'll own a lot of northern Malaya with Mabey landings at Mersing depending on the size of the garrison that got left behind.

Jul 9th 43,

so in an alternate reality, my carriers were absolutely destroyed. and Andy was about to land 3 divs in Darwin Japan somehow reserved time and saved their carriers but for this to happen the Aussie army is to be saved and allowed to retreat but at this point, it's pretty destroyed from 120k to below 65k men it will most

now in this alternate reality, the crossing at singers wasn't as devasting around 20k this reality it's way more devasting.
