I've changed this to game 2 in the save. Can't have 2 of them and this was second on the thread. Hope you don't mind. OK I see the trick of moving quick, never thought of that. A good idea though :mad:
 
Nice ship alignment near Pearl. I can't say I've ever seen the carriers that close.

Chinese tanks storm Japanese defenses at Nanning, Hankow and Kaifeng killing a combined 7 Jap infantry. 3 more Jap infantry die outside Foochow to another Chinese tank. (Let's just say that I used my fighters, bombers and artillery well to soften up the troops ahead of time).

BB sunk NW of Pearl. CA, DD and 2 CVs damaged. Lost 1 bomber to AA.

Bombardment damaged Jap ships in Manilla.

Inf SW of Bhuket killed. Lost 1 tank.

The strike of the turn was supposed to be a tank killing the 3 paratroopers outside Medan. Unfortunately air strikes didn't weaken the paras enough and my tank died without taking anyone with it......

UK, Chinese & Dutch lost a couple of troops but gained nothing
 
I must admit that Hawklord very effectively counterstruck in China. I lost virtually all my offensive combat units, but console myself with the stripping of his key production cities in mainland China. They'll be pretty much useless for anything but drafting at this point.

Not sure what the thought was with the Jap fleet. It is sitting between Midway and Pearl, where it was attacked by 10+ US bombers, 4 BBs and some escort DDs. Net result that 2 Jap ships were sunk (1 CV and 1 other unit which a bomber sunk but it didn't tell me what it was). All the other units in the stack are at 1 or 2 hps. I lost 2 bombers and 2 DDs.

The Japanese invasions of Guaducanal and Tarawa have been stopped cold. 1 Jap inf killed on Tarawa. Lost 1 Anzac. 2 Jap DDs sunk outside Guad. with a loss of 1 sub and 1 DD.

2 CAs and 1 Transport sunk off of Manokwari. No allied losses.

The Dutch armed resistance has basically collapsed. Palembang, Medan, Bandjermasin, Koepang and Okaba have fallen. Overwhelming air support obliterated the defenders, then the marines moved in. They have 2 cities left, but should be dead next turn.

1 sub sunk (by accident by one of my CAs) E of Banderjmasin.

3 Chinese infantry killed W of Hankow. 1 Jap inf lost. Japanese tanks storm and capture Chunking.

2 US subs sunk W of Portland. Portland (and surrounding area) bombarded. Barracks and Civil Defense destroyed.

The long reaching initial Japanese first strike has made a big difference to our ability to fight back.

Another CA S of Java is going to escape after defeating a Zero and a CA. It got a well earned promotion.

There are 5 fighters on CAP in the area, so your losses are a little high, but not too surprising....
