I just looked at the in-game list because, well just because. It shows the first Allied sub lost 1943-03-25, so it's not that Tracker is failing to pick up things correctly. But is that even possible? I didn't lose a sub for the first16 months? Really?

Posted: **Thu Feb 17, 2022 8:50 pm**

Looking through combat reports: it is possible. I would have to check the Events and Operations reports too.

• We are pulling out two fresh, full strength British divisions so they can upgrade squads. Some of our other divisions are very hobbled with disablements but that can't be helped. We will order the next assault as soon as the British divisions are back from upgrades (2 days movement, 6 days upgrades, 2 days movement, so 10 days if there are no delays).

• 5,015 AV at Singapore (includes 122 in a Bde just moved into Singapore). +209. Last assault was 1945-05-20, we had 5,778 AV and fortifications were level 5. The delay to upgrade the British divisions should help us get recovery to above the AV of the prior assault.

• Enemy withdrawal from the Tsuyung area continues.

• Most of our forces around Kunming and Tsuyung are moving toward the Chungking plain. A few will hold the area against the Imperials reversing course, and a few will head east to keep up the pressure on all points.

• 230 AV at Neikiang. In spite of heightened Disruption the attack will continue tomorrow. The 44th Parachute Division will also arrive tomorrow, and possibly enemy units will move into the entry hex behind them, trapping our units for the time being. The para division moving into Neikiang is well equipped for a para division, has 364 AV, and experience of 91. I'm confident the defenders will be booted out promptly with the weight added to the offensive.

• 3,863 AV will cross into Hong Kong in 2 days.

• Enemy unit(s) seen moving SW from Kanhsien for the second day.

• Our units crossing into Hong Kong are changing to combat mode, 2 days until the crossing.

• Disruption recovery at Nago is good and with the next assault in 3 days (to allow the bombardment armada to get back on station) the next assault should be very good.

• Disruption is low single digits among all units at Naha.

• 23 supply hits at Nago.

• 10 supply hits at Naha.

• 1,217 AV at Nago.

• 1,803 AV at Naha. Assault tomorrow. Our AV is +60 compared to last time. Fortification level was 3 last time and was not reduced. We have plenty of combat engineers on site so hopefully the assault will face fortification level 2 for final odds resolution.

Complete combat report attached.

So, what major events have occurred in the course of your game each year so far?

I don't have a list like that. I know you have been reading the AAR because you asked about a combat report I missed attaching, so what makes you ask?

(Because I am not sure how to answer.)

Some base with a high value multiplier suddenly got supply? Noumea is a possibility.

I was thinking about bases and supply, but the VP line didn't seem to show that difference. Maybe those aren't shown for FOW purposes?

Noumea has few troops and over 100,000 supply so no effects from there.

• The Imperial retreat from the Tsuyung area continues.

• A large corps (784 AV) should cross the river onto the hex between Neikiang and Chungking in 3 days. I assume there will be enemy present by then.

• 602 AV at Neikiang. I think there was no attack because the outcome yesterday required I renew the order but I didn't. Assault tomorrow.

• It looks like it is a single unit of 900 troops moved SW out of Kanhsien. It's hard to tell if they are advance scouts or early warning. Either way they will be granted the benefit of tactical air to keep them from blocking traffic.

• We will bring in the units which captured Hainan Island and replace them with engineering units to repair and build the bases.

• 3,864 AV will cross into Hong Kong tomorrow.

• The Amoy task force will make another hex tomorrow, leaving 3 to go.

witpqs: I really don't know why we got such a pop in VP today.

Some base with a high value multiplier suddenly got supply? Noumea is a possibility.

Looking at the numbers, it was his opponent that lost VPs, witpqs did not gain that many.
It would appear that some base suddenly went low on supply for his opponent.

Because I'm not fully caught up in the AAR, and I'd curious to see what surprises have occurred over the course of this game.

(And you can answer it this way:
1941 - event, etc.
1942 - event, etc.
1943 - event, etc.
1944 - event, etc.)

I don't have a list. We've been playing this one for more than 4 years. [:)]

But if I read it right, Japan Base VP was 7089 both turns - unchanged. What am I missing?

One thing I can say is that if you add up the numbers that are supposed to equal the VPs, they do not add up to what is reported as the total VPs. [&:]

I think that the number shown for the Base VPs is the total without taking into account supply levels.

OK, I was thinking along those lines but I really didn't know if the tallies behaved that way. Thanks!

I'll just have to go for 3 to 1 to be certain. [:'(]

• Enemy movement away from Tsuyung continues. The trouble is it includes large forces which were not defeated/retreated, plus it includes the forces retreated from Kunming. The Provisionl Tank Brigade and the 268th Motorised Brigade will move to smash the enemy just retreated from Neikiang, then they will move to a favorable blocking position in a woods-rough hex to the west where the enemy withdrawing from Tsuyung can be prevented from joining the upcoming battles on the Chungking plain.

• One small unit has moved into the hex between Neikiang and Chungking and there is no more movement seen by recon of Chungking. In 2 days the Chinese Army 28th Corps will cross the river into that small unit. The will open up the strategic road movement route from Kweiyang to Neikiang.

• An air HQ will airlift into Neikiang right away. base forces and AA will follow when the strat road route is open.

• There was no shock attack on crossing into Hong Kong because, er, it was changed to not be a crossing a long time ago.

• Enemy Tsuyung area retreat continues.

• The tanks promptly upgraded at Neikiang so the Provisionl Tank Brigade is setting off for the blocking position.

• Tomorrow lots of support units will roll into Neikiang on trucks.

• Advanced technology tactical air strike intel has identified the unit to the east of the Kweiyang-Tuyun road junction: the 1st Raiding Regiment. Our Bde will be on scene tomorrow.

• Fantastic results at Hong Kong. There is a very good chance the defense will give way with the next assault.

• 3,557 AV at Hong Kong. Attack continues tomorrow.

• TF Amoy smoked a support unit.

• TF Amoy is heading for Amoy but there seems to be another unit in the way on the direct route to the SE. Whatever it is, better for us to catch them in the open so TF Amoy is moving SE.
