Damage from the Mini-KB Raid so Far
While not happy with the loss of the xAPs at least now we should be able to work to get the airfield to level 1 at Luganville and then I can bring in some air units and maybe hold the island. If not then at least the speed bump slows him down. The Air to Air Exchange again went in my favor.

RE: This will End Badly Rook749 vs AirGriff - 
. I have some DD's in the area that will pursue him but I think I can get his replenishment task force. Other than a bombardment at Singapore who's forts went back to LVL 3 not much going on this turn. 
The KB/Mini-KB or some part of that seems to be in Rabaul. Bombardment force in route to Christmas Island for the next round. After two or three more wackes I will pull this back for some minor repairs and rest. I will keep rotating in DDs and CLs to grind the XP as much as possible 
RE: This will End Badly Rook749 vs AirGriff - 
There were also some air attacks by the Mini-KB at Noumea that cost me an AM but cost him far from in DBs and Pilots so I feel I came out ahead there.
