Yenen finally fell to our forces today! The siege is over! The armor units are heading north to try and flank and encircle the Chinese before they can fall back. The main force is resting after the last few weeks of heavy combat.

Entry 13 January 1942
Diary of Admiral Markiei CinC Imperial Japanese Navy
Entry # 14


The British fortress of Singapore fell to our forces today! This now frees up our Malayan army for the advance south. ALl forces in Malaya are heading for Singapore, and minesweepers have been dispatched to clear the enemy minefields. Ive not yet decided on their target yet, but i believe i will order a 2 pronged attack against Borneo, and Java.

Our forces are on the move in China once again. They will move against the Chinese center, and against Ichang, which recon has revealed to be lightly defended. Some 10 divisions are moving against it. With Ichang in our hands, Sian will fall as well, or the enemy will risk the troops in the north being cut off and destroyed.

The Johnston island invasion force is underway, but ive decided to order them against a different target: Lahaina, in the Hawaiian Islands. This will allow us to base our naval bombers and fighteres there, and make Pearl Harbor untenable for the Americans. Also it will allow us to draw out, engage, and destroy the American carriers. I have no doubt they will be deployed against us in this campaign. Admiral Tamon Yamaguchi is in command of the First Carrier Fleet, CarDivs 1, 2 and 5. With Pearl Harbor neutralized, the American fleet will be forced to withdraw to the western coast for the final showdown...

Though i am concerned with the damage to the tankers and the scuttling of 1, we take solace in the fact that they took bombs that couldve hit the carriers

Carrier battle! All 3 USN SUNK! Halsey KIA!

Post by marky »

Entry 27 January 1942
Diary of Admiral Markiei CinC Imperial Japanese Navy
Entry # 15

My diary entries have become fewer as the war is heating up on all fronts. Johnston Island has fallen, as have Clark Field, Manila, Rangoon, and Taung Gyi. Singapore harbor is in the process of being swept. Once that is complete the drive for the SRA will begin. Almost 200 ships have been readied for the campaign, including 4 or 5 battleships, Hosho, Ryujo, Zuiho, and Shoho is on her way. All the Malayan troops will be used for this campaign. There are 3 brigades and 4 divisions, including the Imperial Guards. The brigades will take Borneo, and the divisions will take Java. The American and Philippino army will be destroyed, and then all those troops, along with the Malayan troops, and the bulk of the Combined FLeet, including all battleships and aircraft carriers will turn east...




























For the invasion of the United States of America...

The combat results of this game keep amazing me every time I read this AAR. Then I remember, oh yes STOCK.....
In vinum illic est sapientia , in matera illic est vires , in aqua illic es bacteria.

In wine there is wisdom, in beer there is strength, in water there are bacteria.
