RE: RHS 101 v 3 Test 4B: Mongolia & Russia Invaded!
Posted: Wed Apr 25, 2012 12:34 pm
The Russian Commander Far East clearly has ordered a massive set of air strikes.
Worse - Japanese fighters flew 80 miles to object to the air strikes on their comrads on the ground WITHOUT ANY being on area CAP. [I had no idea point defense could fly so far - and it is a problem - how to you prevent fighters being sucked across the border into a fight?] The first reinforcement element of the demonstration corps has joined the lead division - an armor "regiment" - and orders to artillery and another division have not been changed - they remain in route. Similarly, orders to cut the Trans Siberian RR at multiple points stand - a demonstration that war has consequences as well as a way to isolate Amur Province if wisdom does not prevail. Let em fight without being able to import oil (and we can take the oil of Sakhalin as well) - and render their heavy industry unable to generate local supplies. A village in Siberia also fell today. The (300) raiders will now leave - just as Moho isn't occupied - no reason to occupy this place. But it shows that takeover of Japanese territory isn't going to happen without a price. This is madness - but I know of no other way to proceed - diplomacy having failed we need to show both resolve and patience that Stalin will intervene due to supreme national self interest. I will order all planes to stand down New Years Day. If it doesn't work - I am running out of cards to play in favor of peace on this front.

Worse - Japanese fighters flew 80 miles to object to the air strikes on their comrads on the ground WITHOUT ANY being on area CAP. [I had no idea point defense could fly so far - and it is a problem - how to you prevent fighters being sucked across the border into a fight?] The first reinforcement element of the demonstration corps has joined the lead division - an armor "regiment" - and orders to artillery and another division have not been changed - they remain in route. Similarly, orders to cut the Trans Siberian RR at multiple points stand - a demonstration that war has consequences as well as a way to isolate Amur Province if wisdom does not prevail. Let em fight without being able to import oil (and we can take the oil of Sakhalin as well) - and render their heavy industry unable to generate local supplies. A village in Siberia also fell today. The (300) raiders will now leave - just as Moho isn't occupied - no reason to occupy this place. But it shows that takeover of Japanese territory isn't going to happen without a price. This is madness - but I know of no other way to proceed - diplomacy having failed we need to show both resolve and patience that Stalin will intervene due to supreme national self interest. I will order all planes to stand down New Years Day. If it doesn't work - I am running out of cards to play in favor of peace on this front.
