Turn 16. Mar/Apr 1941. Axis #3. IJN. The Marinans.

The IJN successfully clears the lone USA fighter unit out of the Marianas and gain uncontested control of the sea area. But, this comes at a price. The IJN sees a CP shot down and a pilot lost.

Turn 16. Mar/Apr 1941. Axis #3. Italy. RM. Italian Coast.

The Italians use their naval to beef up RM patrols off the Italian Coast. The Italians, as expected, choose not to try to initiate combat. However, as the non-phasing player, the CW does and is successful.

Turn 16. Mar/Apr 1941. Axis #3. Italy. RM. Italian Coast. Naval Air Battle. Round 1.

The two Italians ships under attack put up withering AA fire. The result, disappointing for the CW to say the least, was that one heavy cruiser was forced to abort.

Both sides stay but neither finds the other so combat ends.

Turn 16. Mar/Apr 1941. Axis #3. Germany. The Eastern Front. Ground Strikes.

Though raining on the Eastern Front, Germany takes a land with the intention of clearing out some of Stalin's "Hero Cities". The Luftwaffe begins things with three ground strike missions that produces fair results.

It turns out with the rain that the Whermacht can only manage suitable odds against 1 of Stalin's Hero Cities. Smolensk falls to the Germans.

Turn 16. Allied #5. USN. The Solomons.

The USN moves two carrier task forces out to sea to engage the Japanese. The first task forces is composed of the US aircraft carriers Lexington and Saratoga and is sent to the Solomons. A carrier air battle ensues. This is the first naval battle in history where neither side saw the other except from the air.

Well, historically that would be the Battle of the Coral Sea, but in my alternate reality (i.e., this game) that's this battle.

Turn 16. Allied #5. USN. The Solomons. Naval Air Battle. Round 1.

US carrier pilots have some training to do. They missed on an opportunity to damage one of the IJN's front line aircraft carriers. On the up side, the USN did manage to force the 3 IJN warships in the area to abort.

In return, the USN aircraft carrier Lexington is forced to abort.

For an historical perspective this battle was bloodless compared to the first carrier battle in history, the Coral Sea. The Lex was sunk, but in this alternate reality she was only forced to abort.

Both sides stay but neither search roll succeeds.

Turn 16. Allied #5. USN. The Marianas. Naval Air Battle. Round 1.

US carrier planes finally find a target. Though they only manage to damage, and abort, the IJN aircraft carrier Hiryu when they had a good chance of sinking it.

Turn 16. Allied #5. USN. Ground Strike. Truk.

USN carrier planes ground strike Truk in the hopes of disorganizing Yamamoto, the 2-6 armor division or both. However, they manage to only disorganize the 5-2 IJA MIL unit, which requires no oil to reorganize.

Turn 16. Allied #5. CW. RN, Port Strike. La Spezia.

The second CW port strike is an RN carrier plane attack on the Italian heavy cruiser and CP in La Spezia. This attack is easily fended off by the Italians.

Turn 16. Allied #5. RN. Italian Coast.

The RN decides to try to initiate combat off the Italians Coast. However, it's the Italians that find and surprise the RN. As inviting as it was for the Italians to go through with the attack, they opted in the end to avoid combat. Their number one priority is to maintain supply to their forces in North Africa, Libya and the Middle East. Though to what end? Without transports all corps are trapped there. Never the less, it keeps the RN and, hence the CW, busy.

Again the RN decides to try to initiate combat. This time in the East Med. And again, it's the Italian RM that finds, surprises the RN and uses their surprise points to avoid combat.

Turn 16. Allied #5. RN. Arabian Sea.

The Japanese as the non-phasing player successfully initiate combat against the RN in the Arabian Sea. The result is that a CW CP is sunk and two more are forced to abort. In return both IJN subs were forced to abort to.
