One of the hardest points of defense for japan, I always found Wake a very difficult point. it is close enough to midway for allied forces to mount a well planned and protected assault, and japan has no bases very close to it. with troop levels capped at 6000, the number of defenders is severely limited. I tend to put up an airbase with betty bombers and zero escorts, to try to strike early at any invasion fleet, but an allied carrier force of 3 carriers will surely brush aside the air threat if a bombardment force is also part of the invasion fleet, the island is doomed to fall, and give the allied player a very fine airbase to jump to the next target. The marshall islands is good to defend, but in my opinion, wake is a weak point, and I haven't found a proper defense to it yet, besides keeping a KB close to the region, to jump in for defense any Japanese players with the same experience, and perhaps good tips?. cheers Marshall
