That report says you hit 6 CAs. thats like a third of his CAs. Very nice job.

As you can see Mike and I don't always agree.[:D][:D]

How many of those will sink?

If his carriers are close, it may be time to run.
For what we are about to receive, may we be truly thankful.

I'll give up a final count when I know.

His carriers are oceans away, providing overkill in the DEI. But I'm gonna run anyway.

In answer to the ground swell of inquiries, I'll give the "final" body count from the Rabaul raid of yesterday.  4 CA and 2 CL are confirmed sunk.  There are now numerous ships in the port at Rabaul, no doubt some of them damaged cruisers.  But they will all eventually recover (unless I go back in and hit the port).

Hi, My screen name Mogami is not from the IJN heavy crusier but from a cat. However I do not like losing so many ships because of my carelessness. (However anyone who reads AAR from games I am involved in will not be suprised I have again been caught sleeping)
Fleet Admiral Mogami never leaves his bomb proof shelter deep inside mount Fuji.  (where he resides along with Godzilla and Gammera)

I'm not retreating, I'm attacking in a different direction!

Mogami;
Things like this happen to us all. I let 2 RN CVs and a BB get caught in Darwin against the AI. One turn later I let the San Francisco get nailed by a sub because she was all alone. In my test game against Terminus we stumbled into a night time surface action losing between us 6 BB, about a dozen DD and a few CL.
