Up This week: BURMA - Jan 1945
« on: December 19, 2007, 10:10:09 AM »
JAPAN vs COMMONWEALTH (BURMA) - January, 1945
As Commonwealth forces push down driving Japanese forces out of Burma.  With MacArthur now day's away from Manila, the Commonwealth must do her part to bring the war back to Japan.

With no navy left to speak of, IJN air forces are now solely ground based. They have little fuel - but the new improved NIK-2 and the Ki-84 have made their mark in the air.  There are not enough to make a dent against the huge numbers of British designed fighters being manufactured in Canada for Commonwealth countries, including the new Spitfire models.  American fighters and bombers, part of the lease-lend program, are added to their arsenal giving the Commonwealth forces an a-la-cart approach to missions, strategic strikes, and fighter sweeps - picking the best tool for the job.

It is only a matter of time - but Japan is determined to hold ground - at all costs.

A6M5
Ki-84
Ki-61

(* - I'm not 100% sure the Spit8 and the B-25 were in theatre - am I missing any other aircraft?)

NOTES
Terrain: AvASML - 64x64 terrain with air starts for bombers in the top two corner fields (VH) at 10'000 ASL.
AAA: .50
Fuel: 1.0
Radar: 52800 tower,  105600 sector
Downtimes: 30 minutes for all hangars/objects
Field capture: 30 troops (.0045)

Forknotes:
  • First time we will be using the AVASML terrain designed by EASYSCOR (big thanks).  
  • Small terrain at 64x64 but it is quite beautiful with lots of strategic objects for bombers
  • There is ALSO a huge tank battleground island on the south portion of the map.  
  • 10k air-starts allow bomber squadrons and missions to get alt before crossing the divide
Also - can someone check the Commonwealth aircraft being used for New Zealand, Australia, and Britain (Canada had no aircraft squadrons active in Burma).

All of it is important; most of it vital; and all of it just too much for one brain to absorb in 1-2 lessons" TC
