Three cheers for the Royal Navy - 
The day started relatively well for the Japanese, their surface force enters combat with the allied Trico battleship squadron. The allies are outnumbered, but achieve some success, although all allied ships suffer various degrees of damage. LBA then raids the enemy task force, with an occassional paint scratching hit.
