RE: RHS Test 10A: 19 Dec 1942: Second Battle of Georgetown!

Post by el cid again »

The IJA 5th Division redeemed itself - after its utter failure to defeat the Indian Army 11th Division. So did the JAAF, which correctly targeted ground (vice airfield) targets today. Worse, 11th Division was caught in the wrong mode - assuming incorrectly the 5th would need time to recover from the failed shock attack.

In the SE Pacific Adm Halsey evaded the KB - as did the long line of Allied ships in the area - for reasons wholly unclear to both sides.

RE: RHS Test 10A: 21 Dec 1942: In Honor of They Were Expendable!

Post by el cid again »


This turn features multiple PT boat attacks in the same waters depicted in
the John Movie They Were Expendable. As a direct result, never mind the
damage they caused, an entire landing force returned to base. Fortunately
for the Japanese, the "base" was set as nearby San Fernando - so at least
they reached Luzon - even if none unloaded at all - and they were three
hexes from their intended destination.

In the Central Pacific, Johnston Island was captured, supported by another
division of the KB - which seems to have split into three divisions - one in the
SE Pacific (unable to find much) - one in the central Pacific - and one presumably
retiring to get replacement aircraft because of losses near Oahu. On Luzon
the grim advance of IJA continues - there isn't much left - and some of that fell to
airborne assaults by the heavily used Navy para's. In Malaya IJA is out of contact
after yesterday's victories on both sides of the penninsula.

RE: RHS Test 10A: 22 Dec 1942: I-20 Has a Good Day!

Post by el cid again »

The I-20, waiting in ambush at American Samoa, engaged two heavy and one transport task groups - only one of them escaped unscathed. KB in the South
Seas finally found enemy shipping. It isn't very far from Admiral Halsey's carriers - perhaps a day's sprint - and something (a sub?) reported TBDs - so KB has a clue approximately where Halsey must be. In Malaya, on Luzon and in Mindinao IJA is still marching to contact. Significant fighting in China, with no major defeats and some cutting of IJA lines of communications. But I-20 put three fish into one target and four into another - and surely expended her entire load in a single day.

RE: RHS Test 10A: 24 Dec 1942: Disasters for Everyone Everywhere!

Post by el cid again »

The Indian Army 11th Division surrendered - in good terrain, with fortifications and friends and supplies and a clear LOC to retreat down! On the other side, AVG cut up JAAF at an unexpected location in SE China. IJA assaults failed at Manila and other points - and Allied engineers restored fortifications reduced where that happened (although the Japanese don't know it). Both sides suffered terribly from submarine attacks. And the Russians are incensed that a ship RESTRICTED to the run between Kamchatka, Alaska, Canada and the Pacific NW was sunk off San Francisco - without escort - a place enemy subs have been attacking daily! The Russians are demanding an accounting of ALL their ships, and why NONE of them have returned with supplies or fuel under the terms of a deal that had them carry resources outbound? So add a diplomatic disaster to the rest.

RE: RHS Test 10A: Christmas Day 1941: Battles of every kind!

Post by el cid again »

Kriegsmarine's ex Thor (now renamed Ichi Maru) had her first effective encounters today, engaging two task forces and sinking three AKLs. I-124 took 5 depth charge hits off Balikpapan, three of them serious - and is likely to go home assuming she survives. Two submarines sank two ships at Tulagi. 60,000 Japanese troops engaging half their number failed to take Manila, but did reduce fortifications which were not repaired back up (unlike the day before). More significantly, perhaps, is that Canton Island fell, and the PBYs based there were lost. AVG scored another air victory in China - in a different place from yesterday. But perhaps most ominously, two large task forces, reportedly including battleships, carriers and other vessels, were spotted at Milne Bay - probably implying an invasion of Port Moresby is about to occur.

RE: RHS Test 10A: 28 Dec 1941: JAAF Hits Singapore!

Post by el cid again »

The Allied password is NIMITZ.

There is a new AE upgrade and the next turn will use it.

There is a new RHS pwhexe file - it is attached here.


File 1 is replay, 3 is Allied orders before the turn and 8 is the Allied situation
after combat.

Bad weather prevented any planes reaching the target yesterday, but today about
half hit Singapore - catching the assembled shipping for evacuation as well as some planes on the ground. Had they come by day, they might have struck a decisive blow - but they didn't.

In addition to problems in China, New Guinea and the Philippines -
IJA scored victories in all - the Allied evacuation stream is now

RE: RHS Test 10A: 31 Dec 1941: The Air Battle of Singapore!

Post by el cid again »

The Japanese apparently believed the appearance of carriers off NW Borneo
would have Allied ships scurry to port. The carriers then retired NW to a position
near Kuantan - with zeros assigned to sweep. But they failed to tell them where to
sweep! So they swept Kuantan, an active airbase, instead of Singapore. That might
have been a significant factor in what happened in the series of air battles in the afternoon over Singapore.

As well, a sweep by a dozen prototype Ki-45 fighter bombers went in last, instead of first. These planes - similar to the P-38 - are turning out to be very effective in air combat. [Today the Ki-45 got 4:1 against Hurricanes and Buffalos - too late to matter in the event. Still - it shows that low maneuverability for twin engine fighters does not render them combat ineffective: if they are durable and have punch, they can be very effective.]

In the main event, the Hurricanes and Buffalos - a dozen of each - faced what might have been overwhelming numbers of Oscars and Zeros (both land based A6M1s and carrier type A6M2s also land based) - without a single combat loss. The first major strike had both escorts and area cap defending the bombers; the second one had neither and so the bombers suffered very much more for that reason.

For their part, the JAAF bombers - all of them Sally IIs - hit (and generally sank) all but four of the scores of ships in port (around 80) - and inflicted 26% port damage.


The Allied password is NIMITZ.

There is a new AE upgrade and the next turn will use it.

There is a new RHS pwhexe file - it is attached here.


File 1 is replay, 3 is Allied orders before the turn and 8 is the Allied situation
after combat.

RE: RHS Test 10A: 1 Jan 1942: Burma Invaded!

Post by el cid again »

The Japanese offensives continue in Luzon, Mindinao, Malaya and China.
Burma is added to the list today.

The Allied Password is NIMITZ


File 1 is replay, 3 is Allied orders before the turn and 8 is the Allied situation
after combat.
NOTE: File 003 is not available to attach any more because test 10B is too close and its files have overwritten 10A. I was able to recover 001 and 008.

New landing at Kieta (a major town you never heard of in the Solomans, already developed in 1941) and at Tulagi (facing five six inch guns) today. Serious land based air raids on the evacuation transports at Singapore. Considerable combat in China. Movement to contact in Burma and the Philipines.

The Allied Password is NIMITZ

RE: RHS Test 10A: 6 Jan 1942: Widespread Offensives!

Post by el cid again »

The IJA is fighting for its LOC as well as advancing offensives on Sian,
in Central and South China, in Malaya. Its drives on Port Moresby and
Noumea are at least momentarily stalled. It managed finally to make good
a failed airlanding at Magwe, Burma today - after a long series of air
strikes gutted the local defense battalion.

File 001 replay File 003 Allied orders before combat File 008 Allied situation after combat

Apart from losing the Tennessee to several task groups hunting her (she could barely move and lost floatation moving at "full speed" during the night), a heavy enemy raiding group including three battleships showed up at the "strategic airfield" at Merauke, New Guinea - NW of the Torres Strait - an area utterly lacking in the assets needed to track, never mind engage such a force. So few planes were searching there is no track on it at the end of the turn.
