day 5
slightly better day
enemy cruisers hunted running through mallaca straits
it was also probably last day of significant losses to my transport division
enemy is in full retreat in malaya - if I know he will go for full flight I'd attempt to block part of his forces with paras - but paras are far away and unable for such operation within critical next day
given the position of torpedo attack on West Virginia Andy post poned his planes - or it was a bluff ?
if so I move KB back to Java - soon fuel will be low but i want Andy to go for Kwal - i feel prepared - there is no chance he can block 170+ torpedo planes and i think of moving to airfields units from my 2 CVL - another 30 planes
so 200 torp planes as well as almost 100 zeros is there waiting
let him come
his BCs must be safe but slightly withdrawn from theater after refuelling - i thing in 4-5 days i want to raid darwin harbour
meanwhile i will strike soerabaja

enemy cruisers hunted running through mallaca straits
it was also probably last day of significant losses to my transport division
enemy is in full retreat in malaya - if I know he will go for full flight I'd attempt to block part of his forces with paras - but paras are far away and unable for such operation within critical next day
given the position of torpedo attack on West Virginia Andy post poned his planes - or it was a bluff ?
if so I move KB back to Java - soon fuel will be low but i want Andy to go for Kwal - i feel prepared - there is no chance he can block 170+ torpedo planes and i think of moving to airfields units from my 2 CVL - another 30 planes
so 200 torp planes as well as almost 100 zeros is there waiting
let him come
his BCs must be safe but slightly withdrawn from theater after refuelling - i thing in 4-5 days i want to raid darwin harbour
meanwhile i will strike soerabaja

mallaca straits is unhealthy to allied navy but Andy is stubborn
US TF demonstrates 20+ hexes away from Kwal - either Andy waits for reinforcements from west coast or it is "operation in beiing"
i'm low on sorties and fuel in DEI so tomorrow will be probably last strikes
San fernando has now 5 cut off enemy units - they are too strong to be left behind - 2 inf div and 2 arm rgt ordered to finish them - i will provide BB support for them

inf div and bde from HK will be send to malaya - loading will start tomorrow
as well as inf div from tientsin - already on route
2 inf div currently beeing deployed in pacific
my troops should enter manila within 3-4 days and i should assault city at least 2 times till the end of month
within week time i should reach johore baru
it is good delay place so probably andy will make use of it
that's why i will concentrate forces before any assault
liz heavy bombers moved to malaya - i will pay visit in port soon
mainKB force should reach palau this turn
lost contact with enemy forces - looks like there will be no offensive action as time pays against andy here
probably troops will go to suva /canton /baker area

no sign of carriers - looks like they are far away - maybe heading fo hunting in dei - main KB part in palau waiting
small cv raiding force - 2cvl+2cve will try to intercept convoy heading for canton -1 want to send AMC - if it will be spotted and sunk by carriers i will withdraw otherwise i enter

18th dec
second CA consisting Tf close to pheonix isl - maybe carriers ?
my nells found andy's cruisers running off Singapore and put few torps in them - i put additional bombers at kavieng - however without CAP
Adding up few facts - air offensive against nearest base + run from cruisers there could be an attempt of moving out heavily damaged BB - i'm sure not all of them are at 90+ sys and some maybe less damaged thus able to do 5+ knots
my small KB will move at full speed and will reach Beolietong area in the morning - it will finish cruisers and check area - I bet that mallaca straits will be used to escape no more
subs will be moved to other position next turn

my nells found andy's cruisers running off Singapore and put few torps in them - i put additional bombers at kavieng - however without CAP
Adding up few facts - air offensive against nearest base + run from cruisers there could be an attempt of moving out heavily damaged BB - i'm sure not all of them are at 90+ sys and some maybe less damaged thus able to do 5+ knots
my small KB will move at full speed and will reach Beolietong area in the morning - it will finish cruisers and check area - I bet that mallaca straits will be used to escape no more
subs will be moved to other position next turn

RE: IS 2 Sneer vs Andy Mac
looks like i hit!
small KB jumped in Java sea and found running Warspite - target practise for kates
recon shows Surface TF in the straits - i'll hunt them
Rodney is hit today in port
i miss Malaya and POW in calulations
one BB if spotter is right was seen in Singapore harbour
so one maybe running away - i will hunt this group
additionally - i expect andy to put bombers on naval- so they should not take off tomorrow from lack of targets - DB were moved into kuantan and airfield will be attacked tomorrow with nell on naval attack - so if sth will be spotted in the harbour there is good chance they will strike when cap will be wounded
2 inf div is directed to rabaul - invasion of PM is planned within 3 weeks
my baby KB will attack surface TFs at canton Isl
i start thinking about redeployment in china - there is big mess - using cavalry div in rear areas should free 5-7 inf div for frontline duty

RE: IS 2 Sneer vs Andy Mac
small kb low on fuel after this raid - northern route too dangerous - torp planes + PT boats - going to Davao
Bataan taken
baby KB chased by US carriers - hopefully they missed my place - they have 2/4 hexes speed advantage - so it may be hot - i'll try to force them to burn their fuel in chase so they will be unable to strike
nells ordered to strike on 2 damaged cruisers in palembang
there is a movement like on highway close to singapore i fear he may sneak single transport with supply
good news -retalitory strike on kuantan hit almost empty airfield -all DB were moved to singora
also blockade of PI is almost 100% working - my naval forces hunted many ships - rest - almost all was hit by my bombers
singapore with so strong airpower is a pain in the ass

baby KB chased by US carriers - hopefully they missed my place - they have 2/4 hexes speed advantage - so it may be hot - i'll try to force them to burn their fuel in chase so they will be unable to strike
nells ordered to strike on 2 damaged cruisers in palembang
there is a movement like on highway close to singapore i fear he may sneak single transport with supply
good news -retalitory strike on kuantan hit almost empty airfield -all DB were moved to singora
also blockade of PI is almost 100% working - my naval forces hunted many ships - rest - almost all was hit by my bombers
singapore with so strong airpower is a pain in the ass

RE: IS 2 Sneer vs Andy Mac
ORIGINAL: Sneer
singapore with so strong airpower is a pain in the ass
Hi, i found that defensive position in Malaya skies can achive air victory.
Since every clever Allied player using his planes in the offensive actions his airfields are almost empty (no CAP no grounded planes) it could be good idea to ambush him with 60-80 Zeros and break his will to fight there. (it worked against Andy)

RE: IS 2 Sneer vs Andy Mac
you may see i often use 60-80 fighters in one place but...
remember there are more planes in this mod - 2 spitfires + 4 hurris sqn + defiants + 2 beufighters +2 wirraways+ dutch
second there is whole AVG here and third there are sea hurricanes taken off CV - 3 sqn of them
there is no way a tactic from stock version to work
nominally he has 17 sqn of Fgt or FB in singapore + dutch it is over 200 of fighters
80 zeros can't break their will [;)]

RE: IS 2 Sneer vs Andy Mac
to be honest i don't have any brightest idea how can i capture singapore within 2-3 months - it looks like half year campaign at least
RE: IS 2 Sneer vs Andy Mac
1st day of heavy beating delivered to JPN
it is one thing to read that NIK mod has leaking cap and second one to see 30+ elite zeros unable to disrupt attack of 17 unescorted dauntless ( only 1 was shot down )
i fear that from one extreme ( stock version) we moved to second extreme -( Nik mod)
carrier battles will be extremaly interesting in this game - a lot of sunk ships should be seen
i gambled to stay with my forces one day longer at canton and i lost
i had some hope that US TFs sprinting from suva will be low of fuel and that battle will occur next turn but they managed to position well
overaggressivness costed me CVE ( second CVE is HD and 2 CVL are MD)
i have 30 fighters but can't lauch them
BTW i was very surprised to see devastators with range of 4
tomorrow assault on manila - it should be taken soon - but i still have no idea what to do with released forces. (2.2-2.5k)
reinforcing singapore is wrong way of thinking - 38th from HK will unload next day at khota baru and my forces will reach 2.5k-3.0k of strenght - enough - it will be my regional reserve force in case Andy realises how strong is he there
local air superiority is still in Andy's hands but it can be contested
there is no way to support with navy and Andy will have 2k + troops on rising forts
looks like unless i starve them there is no way to finish that campaign in malaya - with good luck i can take johore baru but there is no way i can cross river at singapore -with so strong enemy it will be massacre and our nice land combat engine will use shock attack on every troops - bridgeheads are unknown to matrix staff
if Andy will be smart he will rotate troops between Singapore and Johore and counterattack in good moment - i belive he is good enough player to see it - shame on me i noticed that so late
at scenerio beginning there is 40k supply at Singapore
I assume with so many ships at sea in last 3 weeks he could double that figure and he will be able to move troops and supply in as long as he keeps batavia secured
with so high supply he will fight for air superioirity by all means available - atrition fight for Japan with lowered supplies in this mod can be decisive - i hope i will be not the first player who will loose war in 42 during malaya campaign
so my next step will be taking Java - starting with batavia or going by southern borneo with 1 big operation - but i don't have so big transport lift [:(]
Question is - is Andy able to push me out of Malaya when he decides to reinforce with 1-2 good inf div within next month??? - i know it is weird but i'm still impressed with amount of changes in this mod - i doubt if Andy is fully ready to rethink whole strategic situation ???
1 bad result of my attack at Johore and Andy's counterattack can push me out of place - weird isn't it ??
there is no doubt - there will be no fight for india - there is doubt there will be any fight in burma in 1st half of 42
One good thing : i think i will end taking Japan player job and next game will be IS2 but as allied - i don't really have any clue how to solve the task Alikchi delivered to me
it is interesting game and obviously i will try to see what happens in DEI in next month
but i would bet all my money for allied player at this moment

RE: IS 2 Sneer vs Andy Mac
So far I have only played as the Allies. In this game it seems to me that the Japanese cannot make too many mistakes from Day 1 or they could pay for them. [:-]
It seems that it is very bloody for both sides and I said so on Andy's AAR.
Do you think the Allied are a little too strong at the beginning??
I will wait till later in the year (after 1.8 and some more playtesting of IS) before I try this scenario.

[/center]RE: IS 2 Sneer vs Andy Mac
i think they got far too many ground units too fast
andy brown's map is best way to stop blitz inland war
but look at numbers
in stock version there is sth like 500AP in malaya and still it takes many players quite long to bring it down - usually jap forces are +/- 2k AP strong
in IS i have 2.5-3k AP - as JAP forces are slightly stronger
enemy has over 2k AP + forts + river at singapore + air forces at least as strong as Jap ones
show me where operation was planned with amphibious elements without air superiority with low supply margin when there no number/quality advantage against defensor
we are equal with air strenght
there are 20+ fgt/FB sqn in close area + bomber force
strong CD guns cover airfields as well as good number of torpedo planes
i'm 50% stronger in land units ( in stock version Jap player is 3 times stronger)
simply adding same amount of forces changes multiples and favours defender
unless i take batavia i will be unable to stop supply / reinforcements flowing to Singapore
i did not check reinforcements for Andy but i wouldn't be surprised if they are bigger and earlier than in stock version
you need to put 2 inf div in Java fast till end of Jan 42 and Singapore is almost safe for next few months
i don't have supply / equipment for atrition war in DEI -- it is barely enough for blitz in stock version
normally your first decision is to increase zero production to sth like 200 and oscars 120-200
i don't have enough supply to start building up factories over 100 zeros and 80-100 oscars
and i'm forced to atrition fight in DEI
mistakes.... you are stronger but it seems that your margin of loss is even smaller than in stock version
i like concept of stronger navies and new ships but hate what i see in terms of land combat
with java supported by 2 inf div and with 1-2 div/bde units brought to SIngapore - there are many units in india to choose from - there is no way of taking Singapore in 1st half of 42 - even more
there is good chance of retaking malayas from japanese player
with lot of supply and so many units ( there are 49 units in Johore and Singapore) your forts will raise very very fast and i think as long as he is supplied he can build them faster than i can bring them down + what casualty rate should be expected when attacking fortified position without air superiority and with almost equal inf units ??????
i think it is sth Alikchi did not think long enough
and now they discuss how to save UK capitals - i wrote i will not play such game
i'm thinking for how long i will be able to play this game before I give up [8|]
if sth like this would be IRL there would be no war
it was report about weak defences in malaya and DEI which influenced Jap HQ about going for war

RE: IS 2 Sneer vs Andy Mac
At least half of the troops present in malayas should be relocated in india and it should be players decision if he wants sending them to Singapore
500 AP at forts 5 needs 2.5k AP to counter and at lvl 9 4.5K is needed
2k AP at forts 5 needs 10k AP to counter and at lvl 9 18k is needed
consider this math with lvl 9 forts which will be in 2 weeks in Singapore + shock attack after river crosing ( i have never seen all troops crossing one day - so there should be 2-3 attacks done by perts of army)
looks like whole Southern AREA ARmy is not enough to attack Singapore
