LAN War Reports

The April meeting saw us fly through the wee hours of day 3, up to dawn.  Our troops continue to push north, but the revitalised enemy air forces were pushing back in overwhelming numbers!  We learned the importance of good tactics and organised communications.

The DPRK airforce has lashed out in a desperate counterattack in response to the Allied advances.  Wave after wave of MiGs pounded against our defences, sending our brave airmen reeling, and causing us some of the worst losses so far.  And then came the bad news...

In a dramatic turnaround, allied forces have boldly struck back at the DPRK.  Following up on weaknesses created by repeated air strikes, our ground forces have driven wedges deep into DPRK-held territory, recapturing two forward airbases, and trapping the bulk of the enemy forces in a pocket.

This report summarises the war situation as at the start of Day 2, 0200.  It includes a downloadable copy of the campaign saved-game at this point.  The information is provided for the benefit of strategic planning teams, to allow them to better develop their plans for the upcoming operations.

After a frantic first day of the campaign, we were hoping for a quiet night - however, it was not to be.  DPRK engineers were repairing runways at an unbelievable rate, and the earlier lull in air activity turned out to only be a temporary one.  To make matters worse, the DPRK are starting to strike against our fleet, and their troops are pushing forward in the north-east.  There's going to be no rest tonight!

Operations between day 1 1700 and day 1 2200 saw us consolidating our defensive position.  Enemy engineers were labouring to reactivate their southern bases, while we alternated between striking their front-line troops and disrupting their repair efforts.

Operations between day 1 1200 and day 1 1700 saw the first major ground-troop incursions, and the relocation of air operations from Taegu down to Pusan and Kimhae in the south-east.
