- IJ invaded Noumea. Fortunately I managed to get AUS bn there just in time to prevent it being overrun. Now NZ brigade is en-route there to evict those unwanted tenants.
- north AUS is safe and building up nicely. Lots of fuel and supply in Darwin.
- DEI will be lost in future, but not without fight. Dutch Surface Combat TFs have done really well against landings.
- Port Moresby will need some reinforcing, so that is next priority. Fortunately I have 3 US CVs in Sydney to cover the convoys.
- amusingly I am experiencing lack of xAKs in San Francisco...have to remedy that. Need to get more plains to AUS ASAP.
- Clark, Bataan, Manila and Singapore are still holding.
- sub war has been good for Allies so far

Other than that...reinforcements are coming and situation is not too bad.

Adm. Spruance commanding TF 376 puts an end to IJN CVL TF harassing Midway I. His TF consists of CV Saratoga and 14 DDs.

3 day running battle resulted sinking of IJN CVL Shoho.

IJN capital ship / CV / CVL losses to day: CV Akagi (torpedoed by Dutch sub), BB Nagato (dive bombers from Port Moresby), CVL Shoho (incredibly took 14 (!) bombs and a torpedo to put her down).

USN capital ship etc. losses: None apart of several BBs seriously damaged in PH.

From my previous games, having Japanese there with bombers is pain in the ass. So, I do preemptive for that.

I have had it at receiving end in Port Moresby, I think I lost 3 DD and 3 xAK because transport TFs are extremely vulnerable to SCTF raiding.

CL/DD TFs are also very difficult to hit with air power.

One of the AndyMac's scripts, I have not yet before encountered this, and it's pretty interesting.

His Aggressiveness rating 90 makes him unpredictable and he might disobey the orders. Unfortunately my favourite Spruance is already in other TF.

Including CV Akagi, CVL Shoho, CVL Zuiho and BB Nagato, no less. Allied subs have been MEAN even when US subs have bad torpedoes...but they shoot A LOT!

5 hevily damaged US BBs (from PH raid at start) are now moving to SF and Seattle to unclog PH Shipyard. 2 BBs will remain in PH.

In one of my games against the AI, after the initial flock of IJN subs around PH and the WC USA returned to their bases to replenish, a few came back to stake out patrols off the channels leading to Seattle/Vancouver, Portland, and Prince Rupert. IIRC that was around March 1942.

IJN subs have been very aggressive in my game. I hope they'd disappear They have been constant threat.

My problem is that I just don't have enough escorts for all my convoys.
