Lowpe: The guy who invaded the Marianas before Christmas... 1941. Thanks for the entertainment and good luck.

Cheers,
CB


Thanks C-C! Not always successful, but entertaining![:D]

Interesting to note that Japan now thinks they will fail in their bid for autovictory (from email to me)?[&:] He was really taken by off guard by the move into the Marianas...

I am vaguely aware of a bunch of British ships that need to be saved for later...I assume there are others, but these are the most important?

Yes.

The British do not get that much in the way of proper amphibious ships in their future ship arrivals. Plus their arrival is not that timely. You need to augment their amphibious capabilities by converting these ships.

We are getting the Rabaul defenses in shape...not really troops, but planes, ships and subs.

Not sure if you meant to say Luganville instead of Rabaul, or whether that means some of those support ships will go on to Rabaul?

Most of them will head north to help support our Rabaul defense...

After two destroyer skirmishes at Saipan for no event, during the morning the IJN ad hoc forces find Lexington and Enterprise...a long fight follows, mostly at long range. The American carriers have been husbanding their planes for just such a move...will the turn into the wind?
