[jjdenver]

intercept of the CV+BB TF fails with a 10. TF continues to Timor Sea and stops in 3 box with the other CV's, BB's, and the TRS.

[jjdenver]

43 JA i7 allies (cont):
4 searches for allies:
At Timor Sea I think axis wont' react but if there is any reaction of planes please let me know. Big US TF in 3 box and FTR in 4 box. 2 JP CA's in 3 box.
At SCS it's storm so no react.
At Solomons this is the situation.
Allies have 2xFTR2 (8,5) that can reach 2 box and NAV3 that can reach 3 box.
Axis have what's shown in the picture including another zero at Rabaul and a NAV2 with 8 range and a 22 range NAV3 at Truk.

Any reaction for JP in Solomons?

No Axis planes added to any of the four Allied searches.

[jjdenver]

Axis finds at SCS - which boxes to pick and how to proceed?

[Orm]

If we pick the 3-box only, and proceed with surface combat, is the result against our cruisers nothing at all? Then we go with that and use the surprise points to increase the damage done on the SUB.

And then we stay in the sea area.

43 JA i7 allies (continued)
US SUB receives DAA - saves the D with a 10 so is aborted to Brisbane after the next round of search results in 7-7 (ax al) both miss.

In the Solomons a 4-10 (ax al) split results in both fighters seeing nothing.

In Timor Sea a 7-2 (ax al) split results in allies finding and choosing air combat. 2 surp are used to shift AA to nothing and all planes fly as bombers resulting in 3X1D to the 2 JP CA's.

Italy search in CSV. Will CW fly their NAV4 to the sea area?

[Mayhemizer_slith]

No thank you.

[Orm]

Will CW add their SUB in CSV?

Italy adds their SUBs.

I missed that Allies had any SUB in the area. I feel reluctant to wait for this answer so I will proceed with it included. I will go back if this was in error (and was of any relevance).

Both sides find. (Axis 3, Allies 4)

How will the results on the Allied ships be applied? And what abort port will be used? And does Allies stay if there is another round?
