Comments:
I was surprised to have lost only 1 BB running away from Pearl. However, WV will probably be the second to be sunk. I have the Tennessee to the west of Pearl amongst many of my repair ships. I did not take into account that Johnson Island would fall and allow him to base Nell/Betty there and thus range into my escaping ships. So I expect to lose my third BB as a result along with too many of the repair ships. These ships will run SE from there current position and I can onlu hope for bad weather to save them.
