Java
I've got a minesweeper clearing Batavia. Java is starting to feel like it's really mine, in spite of the ruins of Surabaya.

I've captured Buitenzorg and Lautem.

China
I'm hitting Sian pretty hard with bombers but the results so far are disappointing. I may need to come down in altitude, but that big of a troop concentration has to have good AA. Also, the remnants of the Nanyang stack have moved back on the road to Sian, effectively cutting off my main force at Sian from the supply line from Nanyang. So I actually need to back up and defeat these guys a third time. More time to soften up Sian, I guess.

The enemy units retreating from Kukong didn't all move at the same speed, so I was gifted an attack on the tip of the daschund's tail there, good enough to eliminate 38 enemy squads.

Reinforcements
I'm starting to equip some select base forces and AA units with radars. We'll have a long way to go before this becomes ubiquitous.
