Started a new campaign and decided to act on some intel and sail north of Hawaii, thinking I'd catch the enemy moving on the Aleutian Chain.

Instead I ran into Yamamoto's entire Pearl Harbor strike force almost 2 weeks after the historical attack.

If you want a Lat/Long and a date PM me (I'd don't wanna spoil it for folks that wanna go look for him)

The fleet has excellent air cover and good destroyer screen. I got inside the screen but they knew I was there. The entire force was making 34 knots and zigzagging like crazy. I launched four at the Hiryu and four more at the Soryu but I didn't hit squat.

I guess my manual TDC work against zigzagging fast warships isn't up to par.
