Massive annoyance about NoCar too (386 days shipyard), fast BBs are still rarity in USN inventory. Will have to send them to West Coast.

2 months for CV basically restricts my operations that long (not going to send Wasp and Saratoga without 3rd CV to Marshalls considering surprising resistance they met).

Despite some losses, Operation Cartwheel was success. On the other hand, USN CVs took some damage, which will delay further operations.

Generally Allied amphibious operations in SWPac, SoPac and CentPac are delayed until repairs have been completed and reinforcements arrive.

Well, it is 1943 so Mk 14 is "only" 60% duds

One of the reasons might be that I pay attention where Japanese ships are attacked or detected, since chances are there will be more traffic in that hex later too. Plus obvious choke points like Makassar Strait (I call it Dutch Torpedo Alley since I place most Dutch subs there), North and South points of Philippines etc.

Battle of Solomons rages on, Allied are not doing well.

CV Junyo is reported sunk in night surface action. CVL Hermes is 93 flotation, not expected to survive. All other Allied CVs heavily damaged.

I was not expecting IJN putting up this sort of fight, especially considering their air losses vs. Port Moresby.

Makes latter part of war more interesting.
