Since my gaming laptop got busted and my DaBabesLite scen 26 saves were also lost, I decided to try new 1128Beta Exe with Scen 26 again...
In spirit of Xmas, here is my favourite:

Rather brutal PH attack, all Kates used torpedoes, none used 800 kg bombs. I am still wondering how couple of BBs survived when getting 6 and 7 torpedo hits.

Congrats on the CVL. If those bomb hit reports are accurate about 3 of those CAs should sink too - no shipyards nearby. Also good job on bleeding the torpedo bombers near Malaya and Luzon. Every Kate/Betty/Nell lost is a potential pilot lost too!

Yea, it was accidental battle. I was trying to save Wake. Didn't work out, but Big E took out quite a few ships near Wake and Lex sunk CVL and 3 CAs, not too shabby. Of course Lex will be on drydock quite a while but at least I have Saratoga.
I think I have been able to save Wake only once...and even then it's use is very limited...
