the last couple of days my B-17 from Port Moresby constantly fail to attack Rabaul but as the carriers retired today the B-17 launch, finishing everything that was left in port at Rabaul... same as the 200 aircraft that were lost on the airfield, these ship losses would have been perfectly avoidable IMO...

a single enemy Division has left Ankang (strange direction to be honest, perhaps trying to get a retreat path for the cut off IJA units) and we have several Corps operating in this hex and the surroundings... it's a jungle/rough hex but if the Division doesn't get some reinforcements then it will be dead with no chance to retreat in the end... the whole situation around Ankang is desperate for the enemy with no chance to achieve something as terrain favours us and we have cut their supply lines... halve a dozen enemy divisions are cut off, with some of them in horrible state already after suffering defeats...
good day with the confirmed sinking of CA Atago during the New Caledonia operation...

RE: Continental Clash - Cuttlefish (J) vs castor troy (A) - 
seems like convoys are going to these bases only now and then but not at the high rate that is required to move out the fuel as fast as it is refined... now I haven't played the Japanese nor have I really looked at the IJ side but wouldn't bases like Palembang require lots of shipping to haul all that fuel? 
while I always try to lose as few ships as possible, I can't remember having had a PBEM at that date with such a ratio...
