My raid on Kwal was a total success destroying 60+ on the ground and destroying some ships and barges!!!! Nice turns when they happen. I am worried because I had no idea the ships were there. I am being very free with my CV TF's on the assumption that I will see him coming (I think his CV's are still in island group west of Marianas) I am no longer confident of that assertion so I am going to play it safe and re consolidate. I still have bad memories of the Battle of Canton versus String where the reaction was very powerfull (or kavieng in this game where PZB got 50,000 men ashore and I could do nothing) Re my reinforcements I have decided to send in one Divison and hold the second for Entiwock Disruption 50% so another day or 2 before I attack again Andy AFTER ACTION REPORTS FOR 12/16/43
