That's an idea. The only problem is that he seems to have every dive bomber in the South Pacific on Guadalcanal and is using it as a dirt carrier. I'm sending the carriers back to Rabaul first in any event because there is no fuel at Keveing and they could do with some fresh aircraft. I'm interested in whether he's baiting me at Moresby and whether a huge CAP trap will be awaiting me tomorrow.
I don't overly fear his 4es in naval attack role - they're pretty lousy at that - but all those aircraft have gone somewhere...probably Townsville where they can be brought forward again quickly.
