This is Darwin now. It's lost almost half it's Resource Centers so far. There's a fair amount of airfield damage and as soon as I get my
AO into position there may be some more airfield damage as we continue the naval bombardment. I'm traveling all the way from
Koepang to Darwin and can make one trip in about a day and a half, say two days round trip. Makes me want to rethink what I'm doing.
So since the BB can't park at Koepang I need an AO somewhere in it's path to refuel it. Dude's almost in position now. Back in business.

This is me turning off the repair of the Light Industry and the Resource Centers at Zamboanga. I'm doing this so that the engineers will
tend to repair the port first. I'm aiming on getting those ships free from their imprisonment.

This is the reason Jim invaded Kwajalein. He got a lot of good ships there.

And then this attack happened. I'm running out of DD's still combat worthy. I hope Jim is too.

Air operations of carriers at base/dot hex are significantly reduced, did you know that? This rule applies to CVs and CVLs. Only CVEs can operate planes at base hex without penalty. So it's better to keep carriers out of base hex if you want to use their planes...

I did not know that Puhis dude. Thanks for saying something because I DO indeed have the CV's in a base hex. D'oh. Well, now I know.
I was kinda wondering where the rest of the carriers planes were.

I got a radio intercept from Sydney and all of a sudden these 5 Allied ships pop up on the radar screen. I may have to direct the CV down
to Sydney to pay these guys a visit.
