HMS Royal Sovereign Sinks on way to Diamond Harbour (was already 85% sys) from surface action.
That makes 2 RN BB's and a BC sunk in a week.
In return for 1 IJN BB and 2 IJN BB's badly damaged plus a few others hit lightly.
RN has paid a high price for holding the line in the Bay of Bengal.

RE: BATTLE LINES CLASH IN NIGHT ACTION
Lightly damaged. For some reason (bug?) my airstrikes are not happening. I'll give it one more day.
RE: BATTLE LINES CLASH IN NIGHT ACTION
Allied GHQ shoot the High Commander after he leaves 2 out of 3 BG's plus numerous DAF Martin Squns at Batavia.
I lost a lot of aircraft today.
50 4 engined bombers destroyed on ground.
I knew I shoudld have moved em all last turn.
Ah well of greater worry and perhaps opportunity is the fact that the full IJN CV fleet is concentrated at Singapore or off of Sumatra.
I am guessing I know where they are going and it aint Java.
This may provide an opportunity for the allies.
All other CV forces abandon there convoys to concentrate for a lil operation I have planned.
