That's... a lot of potentially dead allied ships. Or very heavily damaged at least. Maybe.. 5 CVEs?

What could not do your LBA raids, Iki fortress could

And we want a sunk report list at the end of the turn XD It might be not accurate, but still!

Daylight comes, and an MTB still has her torpedoes...

A DE squadron, likely the task force that sank the Iboat last night.

The MTB charges, closes, zigs and zags. She gets within 2000 feet and launches torpedoes....they miss.

On fire, and with heavy damage the MTB withdraws...her honor intact.

Their flagship sunk, the task force broken into fragments, their navigation the subject of hysteria.

At dawns early light, instead of having sea room, they are under the guns of Tsushima!

Out of the frying pan, and into the fire!

And the carnage continues. There shall be no mercy.

Allied bombers strike back over western Honshu...they find the Nara. Her encounter with Spruance was enough to slow her escape down, and then dodging other Allied task forces, her Captain ends up in a fatal spot come the dawn.



So disappointed I neglected to LRCAP the Nara.[:(]

Banzais all around for Iki-shima and Tsushima! Nice to see Allied shipping, "Obliterated" ...

Wa

Ships sunk...top the official report, the bottom what Tracker lists.

Air losses



Assume 30 planes per CVE, that is 6 sunk.

That's a really nice day. Seeing a day like this make things look brighter all around [:)]

That's a good VP haul for the day!

If only there was a six letter japanese words with lots of exclamation marks you could bellow at times like these.........

Or maybe a haiku:

Banzai!, Banzai! Hai!
The dastardly round eyes die
At Torishima

Oh my. What was the VP change on the day in Tracker? Should give you an idea of how many CVEs sunk.

Haha, wow. I bet your opponent is tearing his hair out right now. [:)]

Kumamoto falls to 3 Australian Divisions. But where are the Marines?

Japanese high command made the decision to retreat to Fukuoka...Japanese troops in clear terrain and western Honshu are being bombed mercilessly.







No CVEs spotted around Iki or Tsushima...

MTB G-875 finds the large shipyards at Nagasaki empty. The naval squads, fire tugs, are all concentrated on her.

Can they save her?



The torpedoes are replenished...now to put out the fires.[:D]

Iki Fort:



Not even one point of experience from night's action.

I have been working hard to draw the Allies into the CD guns: bait task forces, mines, wandering MTBs designed to get CV task forces to react, max night naval search, aggressive good leaders on the CD gun units.

It is nice that it worked, but seriously, only a few days of VPs from strategic bombing.

Won't change anything. Maybe get the Allies to slow down a little, but I doubt even that.

I know where the B29s will go on the morrow.[;)]

Just tell us the VP changes, sheesh.

Just tell us the VP changes, sheesh.

Patience grasshopper.[;)]

I picked up 760 victory points for the day.[:)]

Might have bought me a few more days of life.
