hopefully will have a few more turns

its deffinitely gonnas get interesting soon

a HUGE convoy with 35000 supply and a further 19000 troops just docked at Guadalcanal, also carrying fuel

Guadalcanal now has over 50000 troops based there, along with about 6000 at Tulagi, and maybe 4000 at Russell

the next target is Munda, with 4000 Imperials based on it, but only 24 spotted guns

i intend to land an RCT and base and supporting forces within 2 game weeks

a huge convoy has arrived at Guadalcanal, bringing troops, and much neeeded fuel and supplies

ive set up 2 small routine convoys between GC, to Russell and Tulagi

the invasion of Munda is still on, and will begin in about one week

theres only about 4000 troops there and theres been a heavy aerial blockade, so i dont expect much resistance, but i will stiilll land an RCT and the Raiders, plus support and artillery along with seabees to make sure history doesnt repeat and Munda is secured quickly for preps to take Buin in about a month
