Got a fancy new topographical map mod

Borneo/Balikpapan



Wake



Pacific Islands



The subs off Pearl are still having some moderate success, at least a hit a turn, they need a lot of micro management though - sitting in one place is just going to get them killed, so they get moved north or south 2 hexes every turn

Off Sumatra im still hitting a lot of ships near Oosthaven and Batavia with the subs

Last turn a cruiser or two was seen mooching around the southern tip of the Celebes, i dont know whether KyzBP is heading to Australia or positioning to block the Balikpapan raid, i thought id been stealthy and am surprised hed know it was en route - with that in mind the rest of the Pacific divisions at Badelbaob are merged into one massive task force and escorted by cruisers and battleships head to Manado, they wont unload but i want there to be a rolling effect to the attacks not stop start, as KyzBP exits Borneo i want to be landing in Sumatra - ive chosen the 3 spots we just need a clear path - the Prince of Wales is still out there somewhere and the Dutch navy

I get what you're saying about bypassing Singapore for Sabang, what I don't get is, why?  You have the steamroller in motion.  You should continue to use it.  Create as much havoc and and as many problems as you can.

Congratulations on Wake. The Allied reports (your opponent) indicate that your invasion was a disaster and all attackers were massacred. I guess that was your first wave.

Either he is witholding the bad news or you are cherry coating and keeping secret the cost of your invasion.

Wake falls on the first proper attempt of capture

His entire landing force was wiped out.  I don't see anymore invasion type ships hanging around so Wake may be off the hook for a little bit.

Note: gotta love these attempts at propaganda, misinformation, cherry picking of news for both sides.

Lol that was the day before where a cruiser with 50 of the old invasion force was missed and not combined with this main force - it landed an because it's an atoll a shock attack is triggered and the 50 killed themselves on the beach

MD - you don't see why I should be concerned about Sabang or whether going through the straits is too gamey?

Weirdly there was a post on matrix about doing it the other day and the consensus of opinion was you could do it - the guns at Singapore couldn't reach out beyond the bay with too many little islands blocking a full field of view - they would have a problem with battleships going through but not destroyers and transport craft - I'll retire to my bunker for some chin scratching

USA has reported the loss of Wake already.

Sorry, geek, going through the straits being gamey is what I meant.

Sorry, geek, going through the straits being gamey is what I meant.

Yeah I think it appears to be acceptable - I have the perfect guys for it
