A nice bombardment, and then the subsequent price to be paid.

Just an example of "belt armor penetration" on a torpedo hit not actually meaning much [;)].

Computer problems and I didn't take a picture, but Allied tanks race forward to threaten a weakly held Phnom, which is getting troops flown in....with 8K Allied troops following up. Imperial Guards are loading into trains in northern Thailand.
Sweeps fly, but only find one group of Allied fighters to decent results.

Lots of sweeps, Allies land a couple of hundred troops on another empty base, shielded by 104 fighters 47 bombers (deathstar seems to have split with the other half heading south to Singers).
Lots of throwaway Allied troops leading this invasion...

Good use of completely expendable troops.
Do you reckon you can wrestle air supremacy from him any time soon?

Saigon
Naval action before the obligatory shore bombardment...another poor performance by the IJN. I am sure the mines and CD guns will be worthless.[;)]

Another surface fight at Saigon, then two bombardments.

A large transport convoy leaves Cam Ranh Bay (and was spotted yesterday, and the day before) and manages to head northeast...while a heavy unspotted SAG shows up in harbor.
Surprise.

death of another IJN CA by a thousand shell hits...I think.

Daytime, did these battlewagons slow down to refuel, get cold feet about bombarding Cam Ranh Bay.
Perhaps something good might happen today...
