The CV Enterprise entered the game by itself. I added the escorts, 2 CA's and multiple DD's and I ran the group out to near Guadalcanal to join the other CV's, Lexington and Yorktown, both of which are near Rabaul. I'm trying to make a death star.

I attacked a Jap unit on Truk just to see the contents of the unit and I didn't suffer any losses because I attacked with one dot but I got a complete rundown of the OOB of the Jap unit. It looks pretty massive.

I attacked the southernmost Jap unit and lost nothing but got a handful of Jap planes. I attacked with 3 dots with the P-40's but they didn't lose anybody. That's a good sign.

I attacked one of Willie's subchasers and sunk it with the loss of a handful of planes. Plus I damaged a couple of Jap Nate's and an Oscar.

During the Jap turn the Japs pushed my unit out of the city but lost next to nothing doing it. I notice that the Jap unit has some organic mortar's.

Here's the results of a Jap attack near Macao, China. Again, I lost a lot more than the Japs.

I've got a PBY squadron at Kavieng, NZ that has the range to spy the Jap equipment at Truk island. I don't see any aircraft there so I'm pretty sure Willie can't see as far as I can so I'm not so sure he knows where my CV's are etc. I see some Jap DD's there for support. I need to attack them since there's no aircraft to conflict with my attack(s).

Before I have moved anybody I have a situation near Rabaul where I'm just about to add the Enterprise group to the other two CV's closer to Rabaul, the Yorktown and the Lexington. There's also a stack full of CA's and DD's nearby to screen my carriers. I'm going to look around to see if I can find his carriers, to see if I have any aircraft cover that I can count on, and move some more LCU's into this area to cover some of these empty ports.

I thought I would attack some Jap aircraft to see what happens and I lost more than the Japs so I think I might ought to quit doing that so often

I drove the CA Houston out of the Manila harbor and attacked a Jap CL and a Jap DD and I had the range advantage them so I didn't get any harm but I sank the Jap DD. I'm going to retreat back to the Manila harbor for safety.

I performed an air strike on a stack of Jap DD's and sank one of them with the damage to my side being one damaged Beaufort. A good trade if you ask me.
