Ok, I finished my first PBEM [:)]

I found a very fair and good opponent in Spence and this scenario is funny for Japanese player (but I don't know for allied player that he must play in defence [:'(])

In the last turns I made three port attacks on Tricomalee (with the KB) but my opponent didn't have defence agaist them because the map is too small and he can't withdraw his ships, therefore I think that this is an unfair move, my apologies [&o]
