Lining up to catch a hail mary pass on the Japan turn.

Thought that loss of FIC might be fatal. Perhaps not now.

[simon33]

BTW, can I assume you won’t scramble from India when Japan attacks it, with BB, CV, DD in the water? You only have 2 fighters.

[simon33]

Oops, just put it into the calculator. Might not be making that attack!

Should have flown the 2 bombers on Japan down to Kwangsi.
