USA - The Battles for Java (I) - 01 Feb to 03 Mar 1942
01 Feb 1942: Research has been completed on Improved Heavy Battery....
....and I select 1940 Heavy Ship Hull next.02 Feb 1942: The Germans capture Sevastopol and our amphibious assault is encountering resistance.
03 Feb 1942: The 1940 Cruiser Hull has been researched....
....and I select All-or-Nothing Armour Scheme next.
My current Research projects.
04 Feb 1942: Our amphibious assault divisions are still fighting to come ashore at Soerabaja.
07 Feb 1942: Sill no contact with a Japanese fleet.
I plan to support Infantry Equipment production with another 5 Military Factories.
13 Sep 1942: Our assault forces have finally gained a bridgehead at Soerabaja and I ship in 3 more divisions to reinforce them.
Two divisions attack the retreating Japanese division while the third races to eastern tip of Java hoping to get there before the Japanese do retreating from Lesser Suma Islands. Their divisions have no supplies now and will quickly be overrun.
17 Feb 1942: Germany has declared war on Yugoslavia!
Turkey joins Yugoslavia....
....and Italy joins Germany the next day. Another frontline.
19 Feb 1942: Five more Philippine divisions are arriving from Borneo.
26 Feb 1942: The Caribbean Army has now swelled to 20 divisions....
....and they are trying to destroy the defenders 'in-place' so that they can't retreat westwards.
Another non-battle. Maybe because of our superior forces the Japanese fleets have withdrawn from the Bismarck Sea.
02 Mar 1942: The Japanese division near Soerabaja has been overrun and we now head for Batavia, the Javanese capital.
03 Mar 1942: The Focus US Army Airforce has been completed....
....and I select Armoured Infantry next.
I've activated the two-division amphibious assault on Palau Island. The Japanese have already evacuated their aircraft.
The Senate again!
We are defeating the Japanese. What more does Congress want?
