in all the undoing and redoing, there was one aircraft movement i accedentally took back - the move in the pacific from celebes to formosa.  here is the edited map, if you are ok with allowing.  i promise it had nothing to do with the convoy rolls.  :-)

fun game!

cheers

oops, saw another accidental undo - sub around the horn o’ africa.

i won’t last long with you earning double my wages but at least it’s still fun for the moment.
