General Billy(Japs) Vs Bwheatley(Allied)

[general billy]

Gentlemen,

I have spread my damaged ships to all level 10 ports in Japan and await a speedy recovery. Japanese forces are moving into inland China hitting lightly or none defended areas. The Japanese combat navy is around 50 % strengh.  Im at the moment reforming and intend to patrol the seas of China in the up coming turns.  A sea invasion needs to be slightly delays until Im sure what navy assets Bill has brought into play around Shanghai.

Comments

Although I have sunk all the british ships in this engagement, most of my Battleships were out of ammo because of that bombarding mission. 3 of my battleships have high floatation damaged and trying to return back to port.

Gentlemen,
 
 
Im abit disapointed on how this invasion has gone. I have now lost an total of 3 new class Battleships that was forced to scuttle. Although I have sunk the remaining British fleet it has came as a price.  

[Helpless]

well, seems that Shanghai battle's Jap TF composition was not the best one..

Can you post naval losses for both sides?

Gentlemen,

I have entered northeast of China and have hit lightly or undefended positions. The capture of Nanking which I thought would have been full of Chineses units had nothing. I can now reinforce the attack of Shanghai by Land by bringing reinforcements via Tsingtao.
