Was dinking around in the Marianas scenario and got lucky...

I had just slammed troops ashore on Saipan the turn before when the AI brought out it's carriers for the Turkey Shoot.

After the predictable shellacking from the air, the AI thought it'd be a good idea to cut and run.

Too bad my heavies were only 2 hexes away
