Crackaces -> Darwin Raid (7/31/2011 11:40:31 PM)

I have found the KB ....or should I say the KB has shown up raiding Darwin and sinking merchant ships at port and some support ships. The DD Encouter just repaired damage and was heading to Sydney when bam! The area the KB is operating has 7 subs .. and few possibilites ... there is always the opporunity for a lucky sub hit .. The Allies continue with the current strategy .. and has moved forces from the West Coast to PH for further deployment. Afternoon Air attack on Darwin , at 76,124 Weather in hex: Partial cloud Raid detected at 40 NM, estimated altitude 5,000 feet.
