This is stock scenario starting in May 1942 now we are in middle of June 1943 and i decided to write AAR on this one as i noticed that you guy's like Late War AAR's First of all i will write what happened in the theathers to this point. Pacific When i took command of Glorius Japanese Forces i already had a Large Base in Rabaul and Gilberts , Wake were mine. I begun to reinforce my position and build bases while my Air Force begun attacking Port Moresby. After a month Glorius Empire forces Landed and sized Port Moresby while the KB attack and sunk 2 US CV's off Australia port of Townsville. After that Succes Japanese Army units attacked and captured Luganville and Etafe then they landed on New Caledonia but Numaea Garrison was to Strong and i had to evacuate my troops from there last month ( those consisted of 3 Divisions and numerus Naval Inf. Units) . Then Zeta attacked the Gilberts but he was Repuled with heavy losses, ageain 2 or 3 US CV's were sunk. During that time Japanese Air Force was fighting with LBA attacks from Numaea and i must say my A6m3's did a great job ageainst the Lightnings but now when Zeta Landed in Ndini(?) i will probably need to evacuate both Etafe and Lugganvile... Off course when US Navy showed up near Nadini the Mighty Mobile Fleet consisting of All Japanase pre war CV's and those build during the War incl Taiho attacked , First US Strike Group Attacked... Day Air attack on TF at 69,101 Japanese aircraft A6M5 Zeke x 21 A6M3a Zero x 214 Allied aircraft F4F-4 Wildcat x 89 SBD Dauntless x 36 TBF Avenger x 72 Japanese aircraft losses A6M3a Zero: 29
