Chikuma was on the list of sunk CAs at the top of the page ... I don't think one torp will do her in either unless she still has previous damage.

EDIT: Love to see KB send her precious pilots to attack a dug-in Aussie division covered by heavy AA and good CAP...

Yea, they were murdered by CAP. Very experienced Allied pilots there, thanks to AI tendency to send unescorted bombers.

I have learned to lower down my bombers' range in PM, otherwise they attack Rabaul unescorted...and that is...bad idea...

Also happy to have my "plywood shield" back up. Those PT boats, while rarely doing much damage, will stop Bombardment TFs by forcing them to Surface Combat.
It eats their Ops points too, so they are often inside range of my bombers when dawn comes.

Only place I have air combat trouble is Akyab, but even that is manageable.

The box score seems to show that you have achieved ascendancy in the Air - almost 2:1 in aircraft losses, and a lot of the AI ones were bombers. The IJA troop loss points are adding up for you too. Great job that one turn near Akyab and Gasmata sinking all those laden transports!

Japan finally drew ahead in points for captured bases but should be much further ahead than that. PM is the key and they aren't going to succeed there. Even Horn Island is turning into a disaster for them.

Do the Japanese have DL on your carriers near PM? If so, I expect the AI programming would include a dash in to attack with the full KB at this date. But KB has lost so many bombers in the last few turns it may turn out to be a losing proposition to engage your carriers.

Not sure what AI CVs are doing, but I'd welcome them to try.

Even though my CVs have lost some DBs, definitely not as many as Japanese have lost planes. Between my 5 flattops and Port Moresby, I doubt they could prevail apart from something really odd happening. On the other hand, not going to step out from behind PM, since it'd mean I'd be between those IJN CVs and Rabaul Betties etc.

I am bit worried about Akyab, there is lot of IJA close by. I do have several divisions in reserve, including 6th and 7th AUS plus tanks. I might have to bring them closer, since Akyab is mainly defended only by 18th UK Div.
