Messenges to Imperial General HQ, December 7th 1941:
From: VADM Nagumo, Carrier Strike Force, Aboard Akagi
Emperor,
The Attack on Pearl Harbor has been a great success. Our planes arrived at Pearl Harbor undetected and totally surprised the American Forces. There was no fighter cap and consequently we managed to destroy more than 50 planes on the ground, whereas only 5 of our planes did not return. The battleships BB Arizona and BB Tennessee have reported sunk as well as the DM Pruitt, DMS Trevor, CL Helena, DD Mugford, PC Tiger, DD MacDonough, DM Breese, DD Farragut, AM Bobolink and DMS Perry. The battleships BB Oklahoma, BB Maryland, BB California, BB Nevada and BB West Virginia as well as the CA New Orleans, CL St. Louis, CA San Francisco, CL Raleigh, CL Detroit, Cl Honolulu, Cl Phoenix and many other auxiliary ships have been heavily damaged with multiple torpedo and bomb hits. Unfortunately, the American carriers were not at Pearl Harbor. Tomorrow we will strike again to finish off the rest of the American Pacific Fleet.
============================================================================
From: LGEN Ohara, 5th Air Division, Takao
Emperor,
Air raids on the Phillipinian bases Iba and Clark Field have crippled the US Air Force. We have destroyed many of their planes on the ground, destroyed their facilities and runways without any significant losses of our own. We expect to destroy the last remnants of the USAFFE Air Force within a couple of days.
============================================================================
From: RADM Matsunaga, 22nd Air Flottilla, Saigon
Emperor,
Our scouts have detected two British battleships near Singapore Naval Base en route to intercept our landings at Khota Bharu. An immediate air strike was lauched. The Repulse was sunk after 7 torpedo hits. The Prince of Wales was crippled with one torpedo hit and managed to sneak away. She will be in the drydocks for quite a while.
============================================================================
From: LGEN Yamashita, 25th Army, Singora
Emperor,
Our invasion of Malaya is going according to plan. Initial Landings in Singora, Patani and Khota Bharu are proceeding smoothly. Our aircraft have destroyed the British bases near our landing sites and British air raids out the direction of Singapore have been repelled and destroyed. Two British battleships have been intercepted by our torpedo bombers and are retreating after many hits.

Concerns: Final plans for taking the DEI, TOP SECRET
Emperor,
Here are the final plans for taking the DEI, Malaya and the Philippines. The 25th Army, currently landing in Khota Bharu, will take Malaya and the British naval base Singapore. The 14th Army will land at Luzon and destroy the main part of the USAFFE. Troops of the Imperial Japanese Navy will land at Northern Borneo and establish a major air base at Kuching. Units of the 16th Army will take Kendari and establish a major air base there. From these two strongholds the final attack on Java, in the center of the DEI will commence. Also other important bases in the DEI will be attacked from here.

Nice to have you back, Dennishe. Am I right that after the release of AE, you hung back with WitP for awhile? So are you just now making the transition?

From there we will launch an attack for Clark Field and Manilla.

Emperor,
Upon arrival of the 1st Carrier Strike Force in the Truk area, we are starting operations in the Bismarck Archepilago. The 1st Carrier Strike Force will provide air cover for the entire operation and attempt to sink enemy vessels in the area. A battle force of 4 CAs will support the invasion of Rabaul. There is no sign yet that the Allies are employing operations in this area, although the AP President Coolidge has been sunk in this area recently. We espect to start the landings within two days.
