From one of your other games, it looks like Ronnie has already updated, so I think I'll do likewise.

M/A 43 Allies 7

No DoW or alignments

Land: CW, USSR, China.
Naval: USA.

US sails TRANS from Truk to Coral Sea 1-box where it picks up GARR from Port Vila. TRANS from TRUK to West Coast 0-box where P-40 is loaded. TRANS from Saipan to Hawaii. AMPH from TRUK to Saipan. TRANS from St. Vincent to Syracuse. 2 CV and 5 CA/CL from TRUK to South China Sea 4-box (I decline the intercept).

Two areas for naval combat.

The US declines Biscay. In South China Seas, CL Boise initiates. The Japanese have a Ki-27 near Hong Kong that could reach the 1-box if it chooses?

Once again, the US blunders into the Japanese. Searches: Allies 5, Axis 1. Both sides find. Axis have 3 surprise points. The Allies decline the naval air combat. Will the Japanese will choose it?

The Japanese decline a naval air also. They increase the their own combat column by 1 (2 points). Thank-you.

The Japanese choose the TRS to take the destroyed and Sendai to take the Damaged please (if the Japanese have the choice).

The US loses the Boise and Portland is aborted damaged.

The US elects to continue. Is this another "Hold until relieved" effort by the Japanese?

Searches: Allies 2, Axis 9. Allies choose 2-box only and go for air combat. All CVP's fly as bombers. Does the Japanese B5N1 (1-4) wish to fly as fighter or bomber? Japan has 2 3-factor fighters against a 5-factor Spitfire. Allies have 8 surprise points.

The Allies use 2 points to reduce the Japanese air to air value. Is the batting order okay?

The first round sees Dauntless cleared through for the Americans. Abort the front Japanese Fighter or the bomber?

The bomber please. The Japanese continue to fight regardless of odds until all are gone.

I have tried putting carrier planes on different carriers to the one the program picks. It normally results in a crash (for the program not the aircraft) so just go with what the program says please. If its a land aircraft then I think Hong Kong makes sense (if possible) or I think there is a hex to the north. Otherwise shove it on Borneo please on the northern most oil hex. Thanks.

US uses 4 points to reduce AA to no effect. The remaining 2 points increase the damage. The 'X' is put on Hiryu, which survives. Where do the Japanese wish to place the 'D'?

You've done my trick and posted the wrong pic

If I can choose Sendai (which was damaged before) then I will, otherwise please put Nachi in the firing line. Thank-you.

The Sendai takes more hits and goes to the bottom. Near misses send the carrier Ryujo back to port. Where do the Japanese place the next 'A'?

The aircraft might as well land on Hiryu if it can. Thank-you.

The US stays to fight. The Japanese have been ordered to hold. Does the Ki-27 want to put in an appearance this time?

No thank-you. Forget D-Day, this is real Guadalcancal stuff!! The Japanese decide they can't spare the fighter.

Well, it was until both sides failed to find (6's a piece).

Where do the Japanese abort to? First group is Ryujo and Nachi. Canton would be without interception. Not sure what would happen with Japan as I don't know whether or not the USSR subs would get a shot since USSR has a Land option.
