I'm pulling for the Americans in this one. And I'd watch out, I bet he has designs on invading the west coast of the US. You need your own Midway, a pivotal victory that puts him on the back foot. |
Yes, I was Japan.
This is my first campaign against a human opponent. I've played one Allied and two Japanese campaigns against AI.
I'm not entirely sure how experienced he is. I just know it's not his first. And he has surprised me a few times already.
I'm probably not going to look to take on the KB until after I replace the Wildcats with Corsairs or Hellcats. I still have 1 CV with Buffalos, waiting for Wildcats, as it stands. And his pilots are better. I don't even have USN training squadrons filling out my reserves with trained pilots, so any pilot I lose is replaced with someone right out of basic flight, or not at all.
As of tomorrow, the carrier balance will be:
Japan: 6 fleet carriers, 2 CVL, 2 CVE
US: 4 fleet carriers
UK: 1 CVL
