The devs have hinted that you may be able to start the SHIV campaign prior to Pearl harbour, so this depends how they handle the attack on Pearl..
If they just spawn a bunch of IJN planes in the area to trash the place, then ok nothing the player can do....
But- if they actually have the carriers approach the area and launch/spwan the attacking planes from them, the player maybe able to (with unrealistic knowledge for the time) intercept and sink the CVs, preventing the attack pearl altogther (or cripple it badly) :hmm: I know its gamey but its still its fun right?
Depends how realisticly the devs script it in, but first thing Im gonna do when get SHIV is hunt for those carriers, even if i dont stop Pearl form happening, i might get me some nice (if slightly dishonest) tonnage to start my career. Oh and I would hope command will reward me with somthing better than- "keep up the good work!"
