Good to see you back! Still following!

[Sardaukar]

Reason of absence, had a tumour surgery and it was malignant, thus there will be follow ups in hospital.

Still, thought to have some WITP-AE fun.

Take care and depending upon the treatment, be careful of supplements. There are "new" uses for older drugs to fight cancer as well.

GENERAL MUSINGS:

Since this is Da_Iron_Babes, Japanese are more numerous and tougher than normal. Burma fighting has been very tough, will take some time I'll get Rangoon to ease some supply problems I am constantly facing there.

IJN has lot of CV power in Solomons, which has hampered my amphibious invasions. I am also waiting for one of my CVs in Sydney to replace all Dauntless dive bombers that got decimated earlier. So, invasions are bit on hold right now.

Same in Central Pacific. I only have CV Saratoga and CV Lexington active in Pearl Harbor, CV Victorious is there too, but is refitting. After that is done, some raids will commence. But generally I need more CV/CVL/CVE before starting invasions.

Other than that, I have not lost any heavy ships after initial strike, so naval forces are in good condition.
