The correct answer is Mrs. Howell... She is old and rich and lots can happen to someone on a deserted island...

GMILFs?

8/14/42 Ya think there might be some carriers down there? Fuhgeddabowdit, I went down there once due to radio triangulation and he had wisely departed, only to come back again. This isn't even as complicated as 'rock, paper scissors' yet I still don't know what the solution is.

Here's what I saw before giving orders for the 18th. I have some ships unloading supplies at Ambon.

Here's what happened that night

Here's them slinking off the next day

8/21/42 Yesterday I saw him sneaking up again, to bombard Ambon and/or resupply it (I've been bombing there daily for weeks)? I decided to try a pre-emptive attack. I can smell his fear, it won't be long now!

I've seen move mode units attack when crossing the hexside and be forced into combat mode as a battle result, but not this.

Were you attacked by LBA or any other air asset? That can kick troops from move to combat mode.

No, I'm sure not though my memory isn't what it once was. That would've likely had to be commander's discretion (which I don't think he uses, nor do I) since the target was in one hex and just ordered to move and arrived the next day. If he had targeted the hex he came from, there was another unit still there which presumably would have drawn the attack.

8/25/42 Here are some of the events of the past several days. First, I've finally gotten around to the invasion of Java, tortoise that I am. Here you see the KB and the invasion fleet. In the main pic you can see a Tojo sweep from Bandjermasin and in the inset an Oscar 1c sweep from Makassar.

Here are some air battles from that day. Over the next few days his fighter force at Soerbaja which numbered around 50 evaporated.

Here's a battle at Suva the next day

Dang it! I just got Hiyo out of the shop and he puts another torpedo in her!
The red arrow points to a sub that was reported sunk by a mine earlier.

The pic's from A Christmas Story if you didn't recognize it. McGavin's coming up from the basement having worked on the furnace and smoke is billowing up and he's covered in soot and plenty peeved.

Raiden apparently thought he could sneak some reinforcements and supplies into Ambon while the KB was off in the Java Sea.

Those tourists in Thailand are very repellant and foul smelling

Here was a good day for me in the air. The losses are usually about even steven or a bit in his favor. The battles shown are only some from that day.
