Allies find the CP (3-5), and has just enough points to make it a surface action, and that sinks the CP.

CW aborts the E Ind O, and the SUB avoids any action. I continue with the Japanese NAV remaining. Can go back and change this if needed.

Both sides find in the West Med (1-2), and CW makes it a naval air action. No points used for AA.

Skilful bombing by the pilots. On target despite the extended range, and lousy weather.
