60 fighters including Nicks greeted the enemy bombers when they arrived. We claimed 9 P-39s and only 3-4 4Es.
Would die for a wing of FW-190s and ME-110s with a battery of 4x20 and 30mm guns!
You will get new TONY models in September. With BETTER GUNS! AND RANGE OF 2! [:D]
- The IIb got the punch to take out Thuds but it's hard.
3 Thuds and 2 Hurries claimed; we lost 2 Tojos, another 3 were written of after RTB.
Well, they were beyond Normal Range, so not the best arrangement.
A remnant trapped near Darwin marched back in; tried to airlift them out with Mavis transports but didn't work.
They are at the coast. Really, you CAN use fast transports. Get some DDs, and choose option "Pick Up Unit". Ships will arrive at night, load what they can, and depart before dawn.
Enemy warships reported sunk
Also on this list:
91 destroyers (all types)
45 subs (vs 23 Jap)
18 fleet oilers
40 tankers
I would say 58 Tankers, 45 subs, and 91 DDs are pretty good score.
How many transports? 500? [8D]
Total: 950 ac
So we're already heavily outnumbered!
And Allies have better fighters!
As you can see, you were happier without that calculations.
Also, Allied CVs are completely passive lately, so numbers do not mean much obviously.

In one of my PBM's I am seeing certain lines in the total air losses column vary up and down from one day to the next by around 20%.
Looks, that there is FOW for daily loses, and another, different FOW, for total loses [:)]

My guess is that European and Pacific fronts are best abstracted in different ways, and we will probably not see a WiEurope in the style and depth of AE. Time will tell.
Try Western Front: The Liberation of Europe 1944-1945.
WITP is already upgraded version, War in Russia get "upgrade" recently, so WF is next in line.
Line Islands again? I would doubt it, too predictable.
Not, that Allies have much choice. It is Line Islands, Port Moresby/Guadalcanal, or Timor. No other options.
Well, OK, there are other options, but they are muuuuuch riskier.
