Abort zone. Try to send the Dutch cruiser to Tamatave. If it can't for cooperation reasons, send to Capetown. CP to Capetown. I realize they will be intercepted in Mozambique channel.

CP has a safe route to Capetown. the Dutch CL may not base in Madagascar due to co-operation, and need to sail through Mozambique channel as it can not sail around it.

Intercept failed (8).

NZC next. Any Allied air added?

No support.

US finds in NZC (9-3). How to proceed?

Spend two points to decrease your AA. Spend six points to increase my damage to you. Take my D and A for me, The Americans just want the Japanese battle ships aborted from the zone. Intercept them if they move through Solomons.

Both BBs aborted. They sail for Rabaul.

Japan search in Coral Sea. Any Allied air added?

No support

Japan finds in the Coral Sea (2-3), and uses two points to decrease the US air to air combat.

Will US destroy the Japanese fighter, or bomber?

Fighter. Regardless, the Allies will stay in the fight until all fighters are destroyed or aborted. Aborted aircraft to Lihir first, then Tanga.

Japan rolled 11 for no practical effect. Abort air combat, but stay in zone.

I assume no new air is added for the second search.

Japan find the second time in the Coral Sea (1-2), and avoids combat.
