I'm not sure if Rev Rico was planning on defending New Caledonia and New Hebrides this late in 43 but I didn't want to take any chances. Better off smashing the air bases before he even knows what's coming. Tomorrow my troops will be landing in the New Hebrides. When I get home I'll post a screenshot of my invasion fleet.
