Is that Coast AA Rgt already on Wake at game start in RHS - or has Charlie reinforced that island ?

Maybe your Babeldaob fuel moved to the adjacent base (Peleliu?)?

As we enter into Feb, only small changes as Singapore, Clark and Manila all continue to hold out. I have been bringing in more troops to re-start the attack, but it looks like he did as well as several Indian units are in Singapore.

With no sign of his carriers or Force Z, or any real air either, he has to be laying in wait somewhere. Given current limitations, I think an approach along the east of Burma and attacking Java in the middle may be the safest approach. I can load up on some land based air along with a small carrier force. I may buy a unit or two to go after Port Moresby backed by the KB. I control most of Malaya, so IF I can get Singapore then we can go after the rest of Sumatra.

Finally, he has left my sub base off Alaska alone, so We have stepped up the patrols along the San Diego-San Francisco coastal area.

We now have Cagayan surrounded as the last base in Mindanao. I suspect Cebo is the air base so we will go after it next. Moving up the Philippines from the south until we an starve out the mega fortresses.

We also eliminated the last resistance on New Britain.

On our west flank we have captured Pegu and the rail line east of Rangoon. Rangoon is another castle so we will bypass it. As I indicated previously, I suspect to find a death stack defending the Burma road. But will at least go up and confirm.

Each of us is having some submarine fun, but nothing critical. I had a shot at the BB Idaho but missed.
