Is there a Midway Battle scenario anywhere? Any short scenarios I can download? I just downloaded Return to Wake, but haven't played it yet.

You may enjoy scenario 191 Relief of Wake Island - Dec 1941.
Scenario notes:
16 Dec 1941 - 27 Dec 1941
USN relief attempt.

This scenario is historical, the forces involved and the timing of task force sailings are all accurate.

There is one historical change however that allows this battle to take place.

Namely, it is assumed that the change in command at Peal Harbor does not result in the delay of orders of the US Naval task forces - after they sailed, allowing the forces to go forward to the relief of Wake Island as originally planned.

Had that delay not occurred, the first carrier vs carrier battle in history would have been at Wake Island in Dec 1941, instead of at the Battle of the Coral Sea in May 1942.

It's available Here

Here is the link for the available scenarios that I know of, the small map scenarios are about half way down the list.

That Relief of Wake is a nice little scenario. Folks should give it a try (but if it's your first try, don't look at the opposition!). Hal
