Finished the first turn...which isn't bad at all, just the Chinese forces and a dozen or so task forces.
Trying to bomb the manpower at Shanghai...with some Chinese bombers. [:)]
Odds POW lives....35%. Odds he goes after Pearl Harbor...40%. Portland/San Diego?

He did different things in all 3 games he played against me so there is no set strategy for NJP.

No invasions that I see...
Pearl Harbor had one battleship eat a midget sub...the Iboats there have dispersed according to naval search.

2 x 500 llbs bomb hits on the Hiryu is not to be sniffed at.
Flight deck penetration I presume, and maybe even fires?

Today, I learned that if you set a base to stockpile supplies, they show up blue in the industry screen. Kind of handy.

These boys can get to Luzon in three days, at least the ones that don't break down.
My guess is that NJP ignores Luzon for a bit and focuses on Palembang and Singers...there are torpedoes in Luzon.[8|]

Houston, Boise, Marblehead and DD untouched...
3 Squadrons of B17s are 100% ready, the fourth has 10 disabled planes (it is the headquarters squadron, size 3...I wonder if this is to get some more planes at start?).

First turn is always funny, Thracian made it quite far...Scout and Thanet stayed in Hong Kong, and poor Scout got blown out of the water by Mabels.
Our Chinese bombing force did fly recon, the bombers set to hit Shanghai didn't fly. DL is low...and there is 3000+ supplies at Wenchow.
