Hi U2 I have seen that idea posted before, but don't really understand it, you can fly to most bases in the Solomons (may take a few days) and in NG, I got 3 major bases (PM,Gili,Goodenough) and they got all the planes they really need, should have Lae in a few days (4300 JP troops, 4900 Aussies, with 12000 marching in the next couple of days (had 4000 more 2 miles away, stopped them in place for the other unit to close in, and it put them back where they started) so, plan on pulling the lights out of Gili, a Fighter Squadron or 2 from PM, and that base is ready to go, wouldn't mind a squadron or 2 of SBD's, but there is nothing to attack in NG oh well, long story short (yea right) I see no real need for the long island, see it as hurting me more then helping, if it gets hit, it is going down and lots of cheap points for the AI to gain, with out being worthwhile for me and I have just parked 3 CV's in Munda for the last 10 days, to act as bait for the IJN air, LOL lots of bad weather, only one attack so far, and it was aimed at the base, they lost 4 Bettys, 15 Nells, 10 A6M2 and 1 A6m3, but that is a risk, that I believe I can take and will pay off in the long run, while the Long Island is not oh well, guess I see things different then others :) HARD_Sarge oh it is Nov 10th 1942 in my game, historical aug 42 to dec 43 campaign
