Perhaps it was a range issue with Vals? 7 hexes. Or do you get down to M-80's and Piccaro Petes when you use up the sorties?
You should get more sorties with use of 60 kg bombs. You can make 4 of them by sawing up one 250 kg bomb. Even if the Vahs carry
two of the 60 kg bombs, you still get doubruhe the number of sorties. This is good practice for your pirots. Prince of Wayahs not get
broken too fast so you have target for days of practice too!

Combatant losses. How much AV strength will we need to capture the PI? We essentially have 2 divisions plus 65th Brigade, extra armor and a bunch of arty.
We can start some serious aerial bombardment after Hong Kong falls and we kill all the P-40's on Luzon.

Wear 'em down first. Otherwise, that spartan a force will be woefully insufficient. I presume that your opponent has turtled in the Clark Field hex?
