quote: ORIGINAL: Bif1961 Where was your carrier strike on his carriers? After my previous brush with the Americans I have learnt that Ed has cobbled together all the big Allied carriers. That means one very big CAP. What I had available to me during this turn would not have unduly worried the Americans and Brits. In fact I think they would have welcomed a strike. It is true that with extreme weather turned on there is a good chance of a good portion of the attack sneaking through the CAP umbrella but with an under sized KB I didn't think it worth the risk. To further add to the difficulty would have been the reduction in CAP to give the strike some protection. Yamamoto is well pleased with Yamaguchi's result. The primary objective of covering the withdrawal of the land units and keeping the transports protected was achieved. Secondly only light damage to Junyo and a good haul of the dreaded American dive bombers.
