-After the fastest defeat ever seen in WiTP, I will fight Spruance again, this times with changed sides. Spruance, as a player, is far better than me, so it will be difficult game (to me....[:D]). CHS experimental scenario scen 159.
House rules
no sub invasions
invasions and paradrops at bases/dot hexes only
no city attacks launched from or against Chinese airfields
AC stacking limited to 50x airfield size
no more than 4 AA units at any base(if you retreat AA units to Singapore in excess then turn their replacements off)
4Es cant be used on naval attack(I never did)
PDUs on
one day turns
ASW TFs limited to 6 ships max
Spruance is welcomed here! Hopefully he can give me some intel.
Bombur´s quest for revenge
Moderators: wdolson, Don Bowen, mogami
RE: Bombur´s quest for revenge
Good 1st turn for allies (but no resolution file was generated). Spruance lost about 50 aircraft against 180 for me. AA fire shot down about 30 bombers. Some ships were lost near Chinese coast
RE: Bombur´s quest for revenge
Second turn had mixed results for both sides.

RE: Bombur´s quest for revenge
-Enemy ships and aircraft are decimating our defenseless cargo ships, however, the enemy is starting to pay for his agression, as a third enemy ship was sunk (this time it was a transport hit by our subs). In Peral Harbor, we lost a battleship but the enemy again lost 17 bombers. It´s estimates that Japan lost about 25% of her CV based bombers and their expert crews....more ominous is the fact that the enemy established a beachhead in Lamon bay, allowing Spruance to attack Manila bypassing Clark field...

RE: Bombur´s quest for revenge
-Allied forces are facing multiple invasions from the Japanese forces, and, up to now, are unable to put significant resistance. In few days, 36 ships were losts against 3 Japanese. In PH, another raid resulted in more losses to Japan. It´s estimated that 70-80 naval bombers were lost in PH. Unfortunately, few pilots were captured as these planes have the bad habit of desintegrating when hit by AA fire, leaving few survivors.

RE: Bombur´s quest for revenge
Bombur.....
Thanks for starting a thread on our game and also for inviting me into it , however I will be starting a 2nd thread on our game so I can discuss Japanese strategy.

RE: Bombur´s quest for revenge
The Japanese onslaught goes on. Allied subs are achieving a few hits with subs but this will do nothing to stop the enemy. On the other hand, Japanese forces are taking relatively heavy losses from AA fire. In this turn, allied lost 22 aircraft against 28 Japanese. Allied ships are being sunk at worrying rates...no more than 57 ships lost, against 5 Japanese. Brunei fell this last turn. The combat destroyed about 1/3 of oil production. Kuching was attacked too...we hope it can hold....

RE: Bombur´s quest for revenge
-Things are not going well, as the Japanese advance seems much faster than planned. The disembark in Kuching involved a division sized unit, so it won´t be possible to hold the city. Naval losses are very heavy (67 ships lost in one week). On the good side, the enemy is still taking heavy air losses from flak. Overall losses are 292 vs 194 planes. About 10 enemy planesd are being shot down each day.

Allied strategy
-As Spruance created a private thread, I will start posting allied strategy here.....Japanese troops invaded Palmyra and now disembarked on Canton Is., effectively cutting Australia and South Pacific from the USA. Borneo will fall completely in a few days. On the other hand, progress in Malaya seems slower and maybe it will give me time to prepare a tougher defense. I plan to secure Kuala Lumpur in order to keep Singapore well supplied. I thing it´s possible to delay the enemy advance by fortifying the city. Palembang is impossible to defend, but I can at least put some resistance in order to have local production damaged. I´m trying some strategic bombardment against newly captured bases in CBI. It will hurt his war economy, and hopefully, force him to send some of his precious Zeroes to the CBI theatre, where they will be relegated to defensive roles. In the Phillipines, Spruance is attempting to cut Davao from the rest of Mindanao,but I have the troops to challenge his plans. In Luzon, another attempt to reach Manila bypassing Clark field was made, after his defeat at Lamon Bay. This time the enemy disembarked a small unit in Lucena. I will try to achieve another victory there. Allied naval losses decreased in this last turn, as the enemy is running put of targets.

RE: Allied strategy
-CV Tayio sank taking her entire airgroup with her. It was the biggest allied achievement up to now. The Japanese advance shows no sign of slowing. Lamon Bay was finally cleared of enemy troops but they retreated to Lucena. I still have chances to save Manila from an early fall. Palembang suffered its first naval bombardment. The plans for an heroic defense of Mindanao were aborted by an enemy disembark in Cagaya. All troops ordered to retreat to Davao for a last stand.

RE: Allied strategy
The Japanese are still advancing. Malaya now in under attack and the plan to resist in Kuala Lumpur will likely be compromised. Palembang is pretty vulnerable, but the defenses at Soerabaja are being boosted. In Central Pacific, there are no means to resist the Japanese advance. PH is slowly recovering. In China the enemy suffered his first defeats in A2A combat (6 planes lost vs 4 P-40). Lucens is expected to be recaptured soon. Mindanao is doomed with another disembark at Davao.

RE: Allied strategy
Our planned strongpoints are falling one by one. Only good news for Japan was the recapture of Lucena. Naval losses are extremely heavy. Virtually all ships in Phillipines and DEI are are heavily damaged or sunk. To make things even worse, the enemy disembarked at Mersing. In the air, enemy losses are worse than ours, as flak is shooting down a lot of enemy bombers. Overall losses are about 360 vs 270.

-News for 12/20/41
-Japanese troops are disembarking at Mersing in an attempt to cut Kuala Lumpur from Singapore. Enemy force is estimated in one division. Attempts to attack enemy ships with Vildebeests and Swordfishes resulting in no damage to enemy ships
-Naval losses mounting to allies (128 ships lost) but Japan is also taking losses (16 ships, including 2 Subs, 1 DD, 2 APD and 1 CVE). Most Japanese losses are caused by subs
-Strategic bombing from Rangoon still damaging resources at Tavoy. Very few Japanese air opposition
-Tarakan and Palembang suffered naval bombardment. Palembang now is no more than a big ship cemetery.....
-Enemy air losses are somewhat higher than ours for the present day. Overall losses about 300 vs 400 (for us)
-Davao falls, no more effective defense possible at Mindanao
-Baker Island falls
-Taiping falls. The battle for Kuala Lumpur will begin sooner than expected...

RE: Allied strategy
-Japanese advance has slowed a little. Mersing probably cannot be defended and my strategy in Malay is doomed. Soerabaja´s defenses are being built. We´re trying to evacuate Dutch garrisons from other Islands. Pearl Harbor is slowing recovering from the attack and now we´re starting to upgrade the obsolete B-18 squadrons. There is an overall lack of fighters but it won´t be hard to build a big pool of level bombers. Tavoy´s resources are being devastated by our level bombers but enemy Zeroes are busy elsewhere and Oscars aren´t so impressive as in Nik mod. Allied subs are still achieving some victories. In the Phillipines the enemy advance stopped for a while but an attempt to drive enemy troops from Naga didn´t get good results. In Wake, on the other hand, an enemy unit was wiped out due to attrition.
