Also demonstrated is the extreme utility of Horycrappo-jima (Miyako-jima), Batan Is. and Karenko. These 3 bases need garrisons before the Arries get within paradrop range.

Several observations:

1) Someone is an astoundingly bad speller..WAAAAY..WAAAY worse than me (9 year old)

2) Instead of fixing the problem, they switch to another bathroom and wait for the old man to get home, even though there are able-bodied adults around all day
I should also mention that the technology to solve the problem is well tested and available in the garage and one could easily Google the operating instructions.

3) Even though it is almost certainly due to "feminine hygiene products", something I am pretty sure I d not use..they hold a pow wow and decide I am somehow responsible.

I am reminded of the Innuit solution to annoying, borderline parasitic teens and young adults. They give them a hunting rifle and a couple of hundred rounds
(I know this seems counterintuitive but you will like the second part), 30 pounds of beans and some matches and they drop them off on a grizzly-infested island in the summer..then come back for them next spring.

Et voila! You have either a pile of bones or a responsible adult.

FOW is annoying. I have a Bn of Rangers and some tanks as reserve but they are prepped for Shikukua.

I bet they heard you muttering something about "Horycrappo Jima" and concluded that you must have dropped a small island in there ...

Never heard the expression A Ma Deuce before, but I was inferring an overstacking problem involving Horycrappo Jima ...

"overstacking problem"

Dropping a "Ma Deuce" is dropping a .50 cal machine gun in the water when landing at Horycrappo-jima. Droppins a "deuce" is quite a different matter.

Status: offline 		JJ sortie their carriers very quickly. They must have been in central Japan somewhere. Soryu and a CVL are perfectly positioned to defeat the 4 CVE's covering the Shimishuri landing in detail.

The CVE's have been stacked with Hellcats, anticipating a major threat from LBA.

Morning Air attack on TF, near Shimushiri-jima at 132,51

Weather in hex: Heavy cloud

Raid detected at 64 NM, estimated altitude 14,000 feet.
Estimated time to target is 23 minutes

Japanese aircraft
A6M2 Zero x 6
A6M3a Zero x 4
D3A2 Val x 6

Allied aircraft
F6F-3 Hellcat x 56

Japanese aircraft losses
A6M2 Zero: 2 destroyed
D3A2 Val: 3 destroyed

Allied aircraft losses
F6F-3 Hellcat: 2 destroyed

Essex and Independence are 8 hexes distant from Soryu.
I would have expected an attack from them in 1943 but it is not to be. Instead, the CVE's have to duke it out alone.
Morning attack is nicely escorted but the TBF pilots are not really the A-tem and Soryu and Ryujo won't hold still.

Morning Air attack on TF, near Uruppu-jima at 129,53

Weather in hex: Heavy cloud

Raid detected at 64 NM, estimated altitude 7,000 feet.
Estimated time to target is 30 minutes

Japanese aircraft
A6M2 Zero x 9
A6M3a Zero x 6

Allied aircraft
F6F-3 Hellcat x 17
TBF-1 Avenger x 14

No Japanese losses

Allied aircraft losses
F6F-3 Hellcat: 2 destroyed
TBF-1 Avenger: 6 damaged
TBF-1 Avenger: 1 destroyed by flak

Japanese Ships
CV Soryu
CVL Ryuho

JJ comes back in the afternoon. I don't think they have a full air complement aboard.

Afternoon Air attack on TF, near Shimushiri-jima at 132,52

Weather in hex: Heavy cloud

Raid detected at 67 NM, estimated altitude 14,000 feet.

Afternoon counterattack from the CVE's.

Afternoon Air attack on TF, near Uruppu-jima at 129,53
