No change to our test pilots after one day of watching
USN CA TF that could only be from PH made contact with IJN TF of tankers in open ocean 300 miles from Marcus Island (and 300 miles from present location of 6xIJN CV) Strange place for them to be. The Japanese TF was the replenshment group from the PH strike. It had moved and unloaded at Kwajalean and is returning to Japan. The TF escort took a beating but protected the tankers from great damage.

What is your supply situation like at this point (mid-Jan 42)? Are you running into any contraints on your operations?

How much of your supply is being used up in China? If you only went after Hong Kong and stayed on the defensive against the Chinese would that give you more supply and/or whatever the equivalent of "preparation points" are in this game for use in other theaters?

Thanks -

Hi, The China operations are not eating PP. Supply is a concern because at the start of the war so much demand exists. I think I'm getting near the point where it will begin to ease a bit. (That and the first convoys are loading resource and oil to bring to Japan) I sent a lot of troops into PI.
