end of January 1942
We are at the end of the first month in 1942 and Kevins evil horde is advancing on all fronts.
A little time for an overview:
Score: 7783 (me) vs 7461 ( evil horde )
sorties/losses: 127028/846 vs 137872/472 ( so just roughly 2:1 in Kevins favour )
highest A/C losses so far ( no Allied aces at the moment )
109x P40E Warhawk
106x Buffalo
104x Sally
ship losses:
this looks bad for me ( except a 1:1 with the subs - but very heavy losses there)
Allied:
2x CV
1x CVL
4x CA
3x CL
12x DD
4x AP
10x AK
13x SS
15x PT
3x PG
10x MSW
5x DMS
and now the small Japanese losses so far:
1x DD
3x APD
5x AP
1x AK
12x SS
4x PC
2x MSW
also around 20 ships damaged 50+ and so they are abolute not useable. And this turn one of my CVs got hit.

RE: end of January 1942
After a very patient/slow buildup, battle has finally been joined in Brunei, Clark Field and Singapore.
From the look of the Allied forces the battles shouldn't last too long! [:D]
