RE: What could possibly go wrong? Wargamr(A) vs njp72(J)

Post by Mike McCreery »

June 1, 1944

In small ship combat I manage to sink 18 tiny vessels. Also, he zagged and I zigged and it resulted in the likely sinking or serious yard time for 2 Japanese Cruisers. Cant decide if I am happier about the death of E's or CA's...

Battle for Batan Island June 1, 1944

Well it looks like NJP zagged and I zigged last turn and it helped me a lot. He made a direct charge East from Batan Island. I believe he thought I was sending reinforcements to the island and would be using the carriers to LRCAP or LCAP the landing. I have a very large fleet of resupply heading there with 24 barges and 10 LST's that make it look huge along with a 66 TF convoy bearing 30K troops for Miyoka-Jima.

He scared away the barges and LST's and grabbed empty air as my carriers were not where he expected them to be. The result is 1 seriously damaged cruiser and several damaged ones. Due to a synch bug the accounting of the battles is not accurate. The afternoon battle happened with only 6 hellcats and 4 or so bombers and resulted in 1 hit on a cruiser, not the multiple hits portrayed in my battle results.

Putting it down to Fog of War.

So, basically he has a choice. Limp back to Formosa or continue to try to kill my carriers. My transport fleet at Myoka-Jima is exposed and it is likely he might send a surface task force to interrupt the unloading along with possible air attacks from Okinawa. Soooooo... I pivoted on a dime and plan on dropping them at Iriomote instead. There is little to no chance he will do a surface attack on that island nor attempt any other kind of aggressive action next turn. I also set my aircraft carriers to 100% cap 0 range and stuck them with the troop transports at the island. In addition, 50 or so P47's are LRCAPing from Batan Island.

I dont really care which island the troops are on. It is closer to the northern bases on Formosa although the airfield is smaller. The coverage gets me what I want and I can land additional troops on Miyoka-Jima sooner rather than later. In addition this will become much easier after my engineer explosion set to take out 6 or so islands more northeast.

Whichever choice he makes, to continue the attack or retreat I do not plan on being there. I had this crazy plan to use the 2 embedded battleships to bombard Takao and possibly take out a surface fleet or two but could not be sure they would hit this turn and if they didnt bombard then I would likely lose some of the nicer battleships I have. Also, it would probably require me covering them with my carriers which draws them into the same battle I avoided last turn.

Battle For Batan Island June 2, 1944



When I was in College I briefly studied a martial art known as Aikido. It is a very interesting form because it uses the opponents motions and movements against them more than some of the other forms. It specializes in unarmed combat against armed opponents. The point is to let the enemy attack but just not be there when it happens.

I would say that this battle was a demonstration of Aikido.

I knew that NJP would either go back to Formosa or attack the landing at Myioka-Jima. Personally, losing a bunch of troops and transports for no reason seemed unreasonable to me. So, I wasnt there.

From what I can tell, NJP used his surface fleets to attack Myioka-Jima and then had them go to Okinawa for the daytime phase. You can well guess that there was plenty of cap over this base and NJP had his ducks in a row. If my transports had tried to unload he would have smashed them up good and been under LBA CAP by morning. And well, he is. Which would have been an issue if I had tried to attack but that wasnt my plan.

In addition, his LBA swept the base above Myioka-Jima and would have trashed a lot of navy planes if I had been there. I LRCAP'd from Aparri with my P47's because I figured he would do this. So the army fighters were waiting for his.

To focus his force he positioned his remaining carriers to the northwest of Myioka-Jima and their bombers would have done more damage to the landing fleet and picked off stragglers that the surface task force had missed.

Again, not acceptable. So. I put all my fighters on CAP 100% 0 range 21,000'. I set my dive bombers to naval search and my torpedo bombers to ASW. That way I didnt have to worry about escorting anything. There is a really nasty surprise of additional Navy and marine planes based at Aparri and the other base on the NW corner of Luzon.

In fact, the only thing I am not totally thrilled about is I left all my cap at 21K and it likely cost me a few hits. NJP was probably thinking my cap was going to be lighter than yesterday due to the air combat. Well, it was almost 400 hellcats and that did not bode well for the upcoming battle.

This turn was just plain mean for the Japanese Air Force...

China Campaign June 2, 1944

I am praying that NJP has been distracted by the events over the last few days. Because I have a small unit that might just take what I consider an important Chinese base that was left empty by the Japanese. He might not care about it but it seems the noose is tightening.

One thing I discovered when this plan formed in my brain 2 days ago is there are damn few Chinese units willing to fly by aircraft. And most of those are in hard to reach places ATM. But, the 6th New Chinese Corps has taken up the challenge and is being flown into Chungking as we speak. Hopefully I can throw around 100 AV into the base per day until I run out of stuff to throw.

I will let the readers guess the location of the base I am referring to. He may be moving in that direction already and it may not work but lets see what happens...

East China Sea - June 3, 1944

I could be wrong but by the sheer amount of small shipping he has to the northeast he may be using them as pickets or possibly CAP traps or diversions. He also might have been worried that the troop transports were bound for parts farther north.

Iriomote has 365AV on it now with the equivalent of 200 engineers, 59% to level 1 and 4000 supplies. About half of the transport fleet is completely dry LCI's which I need to figure out what to do with.

Now I need to make an exit or stand as gracefully as I just executed the trap.

China June 5, 1944


Attacks went in at Ichang and Changteh with Changteh being unoccupied. I flipped it over to the Chinese side and dropped 97 AV into the base along with some base support for fighter cover. Over the next 5 days or so I should be able to get the 6th New Chinese Corps completely transferred to this base.

China is getting really dicey for NJP.

I took a strategic assesment of where his known troops are. I have around 41.5K troops near Kunming in the western side of China. this does not count the 10 units retreating from Thailand nor 2 other unknown units.

Along the Kweiyang corridor he has 83K troops.

At Kweilin he has 80K troops

In and around Canton he has 54K troo.

At Formosa he has about 90K troops with 1000 Armor

And finally at Guam he has about 90-100K troops.

This information might be useful if I knew what his overall troop strength was. Okinawa is not in the equation but I am sure there are plenty of troops there as well.

China will be interesting because I have not seen him break and run yet. His big 13 stack keeps generating 1-2 results on attacks and is wearing him down.

I wonder when he has to fold to save the entire army.
