  Clark field is lost! The raiders take several hits - but somehow I still come out on top today!

You keep posting the sunk results a day in advance of the actual turn, btw.

I assume Liverpool Maru was impounded and impressed into service by the IJN?

You're posting a day in advance for the results, exemplified by ships sunk a day before we see them in the videos.

Grey's giving us the reports dated day X+2, though.

Yes, I know this, I'm literally saying that the reports are a day ahead because he's sinking things on the 23rd, which don't match the stuff being shown for the 24th, because he's posting the report a day in advance.

So how has Grey Hunter been doing overall this run? So many updates to go through, seems like he's done well given by how long he could hold the Philippines and the shitton of transports he's killed though.

He's killed a lot more Japanese pixelmans than usual by this point. Also a good number of ships downed. But he also lost the Lexington, so you know. Some of column A, some of column B

Filthy Croctopian A Columnists. You are supposed to be sinking the ROYAL NAVY not the US Navy.

I'm amazed Manilla held out for this long, you must've really hosed over their time table doing that with tying up so many forces.

 From what I saw briefly Warspite isn't due for withdrawal until 1943?

Plus they seem to be reinforcing there rather than withdrawing, so hopefully we can keep the attrition going. Then again they’re also reinforcing and outflanking Rangoon, which might make Burma/Myanmar and East India quite lively.

A shame that your pilots couldn't confirm the Mogami, but the fact that they didn't spot it in that final attack wave is a good indication that it sunk. The other good indicators are the dozen or so 1000 pound semi-armor-piercing bombs that exploded inside its hull thousands of miles from anywhere it could fix that damage.

That convoy just orderly fed itself into a woodchipper, didn't it? Is the mass of troops at Hankow a result of Grey's careful planning and deployments?

Where on earth is their invasion support? The Bandjermasin convoys should have been guarded up to the hilt after the first time you raided them to hell and back, let alone ... what is this, Raid 5?

Well, it's good that Japan's still got some fight in them for now. With all the logistical and troop losses they've taken, it's hard to believe they'll have too left by mid 1943.
