Ouch! Carrier hit by a mine! At least you know the Akagi is out of the fight for a few weeks! [:D]

I'm curious how you plan on holding the land gained by Hammer II. How do you plan on establishing Air Supremacy? The Zeros will be able to cut through any CAP you put up. Then all he has to do is bomb your supplies into oblivion and retake the island at will. You may be jumping th gun slightly. It is still VERY early in the war.
