August 29, 1922
USN attempted a comeback for yesterday. Sadly, it was more huff and puff than actual results. Two DD TFs sent in pursuit of IJN Battleship group found nothing.
USN SS O-16: First hit @ Kwajalein: ML Kuroshima Maru (Torpedo hits 2, on fire, heavy damage). Sinks immediately, 82nd IJN casualty.
USN SS R-25: Sixth hit NW of Kwajalein: ML Kurokami Maru (Torpedo hits 1, on fire) Asiatic fleet submarines paying Marshalls a friendly visit on their way home @ Johnston or Baker.
USN SS S-4: Ninth hit @ Tokyo: TK Manju Maru (Shell hits 2, Torpedo hits 1, on fire) The fireworks resulting from burning cargo were very pleasant to see; who knows, maybe this is going to strand IJN BBs on some remote atoll.
USN SS S-16: Third and fourth hits @ Kagoshima: AP Anyo Maru (Torpedo hits 1, on fire then Torpedo hits 1, on fire, heavy damage)
IJN SS No. 36 gets 6 DCs @ Johnston - heavy damage. Bridge flooded. IJN has 3 SSs in the area - may my SC-2 Martins enjoy the experience they are about to receive...
IJN SS No. 41 gets 2 DCs @ Jaluit. Misses.

RE: Battle of Jaluit, part 2
Ah, so the antidote for USN Super DDs ... is ... of course ... IJN Pre-dreadnoughts and old Armored Cruisers !!!

RE: Battle of Jaluit, part 2
It's all about quantities. Baker island battles saw 3-5 DD squads; Jaluit had 2. The third one didn't engage, even when I sent it in pursuit...
Hey, for a daytime battle beyond the range of DD guns those tin cans did excellent...

The second battle of Jaluit. Three heavily-armored IJN task forces assault the same DD squad at Jaluit...
Seven lost DDs for four torpedo hits and a lot of hope - there are 7 subs at Kwajalein... Casualty ratio is now IJN's 84 to USN's 81.
IJN SS No. 20 attacks ML Baltimore at Johnston island (Torpedo hits 1, on fire)
2nd hit for USN SS R-5 northwest of Eniwetok: AK Ina Maru (Shell hits 4, Torpedo hits 1, on fire).

IJN PC Ch08 sinks in Tokyo Harbor. 615 more tonns for USN SS S-7
September 4, 1922
IJN AO Noshima sinks in the Marshalls. 1100 more tonns for USN O-14, although R-16 had to help as well.
DDs are getting stacked at Mili; I got 60 of them there. 13 BB and 3 more DD on the way. If IJN wants to repeat the Jaluit adventure...
Submarines have formed a circle around Kwajalein (just out of range of IJA aviation) and are in process of creating another one around Eniwetok.
IJN SS UB-125 (O6) earns 2 more scratches from DCs at Mili.

RE: YTD tonnage sunk by submarines (up-to-date)
Ehehe!! Thanks!
It's fun to see that the leader is a Jap sub that sunk only 1 big TK!
Strange also to see that S-17 is only at ~9000 after sinking a BB (pre-dreadnought)... was she so "light"?
Now, think if this list could be accessible under "Top Aces list" button...![X(]

It was a very small BB
Only 286' long, coast defense class.I'm still tweaking tonnages and lists of kills. Any scuttled ship, any ship sunk a week after being torpedoed throws it off... Right now this is 90% accuracy at best.

IJN CL Tatsuta, a Tenryu-class cruiser capsizes, trying to escape to Truk. IJN's 90th casualty and IJN's 4th cruiser loss. It's the only IJN's casualty of Battle of Jaluit.
Its sinking answers an important question as to where the main IJN forces are located. This explains why Jaluit had been hit much more than Mili.

IJN DD Kaki stumbles across an American mine at Jaluit and sinks immediately. IJN's 91st casualty.
Somehow IJN just won't leave Jaluit alone. Maybe because it's the third level 3 port in Marshalls, hidden behind the rest of the islands and closest to Truk?
An IJN BB is spotted next to Mili. 63 DD and 11 BB stacked at Mili say: Come on over =)
