Jayson (Japan) vs. Bruce (Allies) - If you are Bruce... don't read this.

[jomni]

I thought of posting AAR's of my ongoing PBEM with Bruce.

So far here's the first two months.

Results

Dec 1941

1. Strike on Pearl Harbour - Japanese Victory!

None

2. Luzon - Japanese Successful Invasion (unopposed)

No losses but he has mustered a very large force of 2 CV and countless CA/CL.

Jan 1942

1. Leyte - Japanese Successful Invasion (unopposed)

2. Borneo - Japanese Successful Invasion (unopposed)

Plans

I was expecting a naval engagement in Borneo but looks like he's giving it away for free. A very scary and large allied force in Singapore (3 CV 2 BB 32 CA/CL).

Current oil stocks at 4 / -1. I am sending TF's to protect and expand Borneo base to stabilize supply.

I am taking a risk of not capturing the oil centers of Singapore and Java for now because of the large presence of Allied ships.

Instead I will capture the Aleutians and raid The West Coast the next turn so that he will divide his navy.

Some patrols Borneo, Formosa, Truk, and Kwajalein to build up the land based air units.

Keeping my fingers crossed.
