Status: offline 		Okay here's the situation. The Allies have allegedly got something like 4 ships two of which are a PG and a DD and they are just
hanging out at Baker Island. So I've just happened upon a TF that has a CA and a bunch of DD's and I think I'll unleash them on the
Allied formation and PB's can sweep out to the flanks and the AO's can hold back to see what else happens. And I look around to see
if I can find any backup anywhere close.

Status: offline 		The TF name field contains the data "18Feb empty" and the TF has 16K loaded now, 19Feb, therefore it's loading at the rate of 16K per
day so far. I'm pretty sure the loading rate is based on the number of ships docked at the harbour, and maybe also counting those
still swinging from their anchor out in the bay waiting for their number to come up. So I may have to weight that 16K per day per ship or
per TF or something.

Status: offline 		Okay....I'm calling upon all you experts out there ........I gotta question.......we're about to find out anyway but what's about to happen in
the following situation: I've got the destination and the home base set to Tokyo except that I'm not quite through loading this TF yet. So
um........will it keep loading or will it set off toward Tokyo? I'm thinking it'll just keep loading. I'll post this to remind me to look at what TF
8 does in the next turns I get from Jim.

Status: offline 		And here's another one for you experts out there. Here's TF 20 sitting docked in Hong Kong loading supplies or something and I've got
the destination still set for Hong Kong but the home port is now Tarakan. I'm hoping it's going to keep loading until it's full and THEN it
will set out for Tarakan. What will it really do? Enquiring minds want to know. I'll look up TF 20 in future turns to see exactly what it does
do.

Status: offline 		Okay, here's another situation: There's an Allied sub in the Banjo hex and the Banjo port is level 1 and I have a TF that has an AK that
needs to download it supplies and there's a PB or some other kind of sub chaser with that TF......so the question is should I leave that
AK there docked to the pier and free up the PB to do partolling in the waters of the port? Or do I not dock them at all? What is the
opinion of the dudes reading this? Anybody got an opinion?

Status: offline 		Here's another situation: Here's a surface task force: a CA flanked by DD's, that have a DMS in their midst. They have been ordered
to assault into a port hex which may or may not have mines. So I'm putting a DMS in there but protecting the DMS with a CA and some
DD's. Or am I? Is the DMS going to be out front there when the surface combat happens? Should I have used more DMS boats? Any
body got an opinion?

switched it to computer control. What will it do? Let's follow this task force to see what it does in the future.

Status: offline 		Here's me doing a sort on speed cruise mode or something like that and getting a list of the ships that are computer controlled at the
top of the list and also a list of the ships that are using "C" mode which I assume is cruise mode instead of going mission speed. So....
I'm changing all those guys from C to M except for the computer controlled TF's because I've found that just putting it in computer mode
changes the speed back to "C" anyway. Hard coded I guess. So I just leave it on C in the computers hands. And watch what it does.

P. that is carrying fuel. I'll have to look into that and maybe re-direct it.

First of all there's this naval exchange at Baker Island.

the fight. I'm going to have to ship some Zero's in there to take the place of those Nates. The Nates belong in China where they don't
have any opposition. More training is indicated in this group.

outnumbered that Buffalo and STILL didn't shoot it down. More training I'm guessing, is needed.

Status: offline 		And then the Allies did a sweep of Moulmein using the AVG. I'm lilking the results of this contest. With the new higher altitude those
Nates didn't lose anybody. That hasn't happened since they have been based here. Demonstrating the better advantage of being
at least as high as your opponent when these furballs happen. Maybe the air supremacy tide has turned here today. Maybe my Nates
just got lucky.

Status: offline 		And then there was my daily Betty raid on Port Moresby. They tried to time the raid to be attacking out of the direction of the sun and
everything but it didn't seem to help much. But these raids buck up the foot soldiers and it's good for morale. I might even being
scoring some disruption on the Allies or something. These raids give me an excuse to think I'm really making a difference to those foot
soldiers down there. I should stage some more people into there I'm guessing. Maybe after the conclusion of the Gasmata affair.

vicious flak however and it chewed up my Sallys pretty well. Almost half of them were damaged in some way or another. Maybe one of
them flipped from almost normal to downright deranged. Happens.

unit in this hex later in the day, which attack I will speak about in a different post.

they didn't get slaughtered which is what usually happens. I think this new higher altitude is making a difference in the outcomes of these
furballs. Maybe my guys will shoot down one of the AVG sometime soon.

altitude of 10K and see what difference it makes. So far this operation ( to bomb Darwin strategically ) is a failure to start.

Status: offline 		I'm posting a picture of the location with an overlay of verbage to describe the combat event for almost all the combat events in the hope
that it's bringing the war into sharper focus for you and it's not like me to post the entire combat report but I can if somebody wants to
see it. I'm hoping pictures makes it better for you guys. It makes me later in getting my turns back to my opponents
but it's worth it I think.

EDIT: here's the combat report if anybody wants to see it:
