All original Scenario 15 Task Forces have been adjusted by Andrew Brown to his map. In addition, I have switched the Enterprise and Lexington task forces so that Lexington is moving to a point near Midway and Enterprise is returning to Pearl Harbor. I have not (yet) adjusted their starting positions and would welcome comments on this. Historically close to Pearl and they will be engaged on the first day of the war (which, I suspect, is why Matrix originally placed them further away).
The following additional Task Forces are being added:
- US Gunboat Isabel returning to Manila from patrol (read "bait") off French Indochina
- US Destroyer Litchfield off Pearl Harbor - ASW exercises with submarine Thresher
- British Cruiser Exeter at Sea in the Indian Ocean - destination set to Singapore (this ship was on patrol on December 7th and was ordered to Singapore to Join Force Z). In order to prevent the AI from routing her through the death trap of the Malacca Straits her initial position is placed much farther south)
- British Cruiser Glasgow on patrol in the Indian Ocean
- US Seaplane Tender Wright returning to Pearl Harbor from Midway
- US Transport William Ward Burrows enroute Wake
- US Gunboat Wake - in reduced commission at Shanghai
- US Transport President Harrison enroute Tientsin
- Australian Cruiser Adelaide and Norwegian Freighter Fingal enroute Port Moresby
- Dutch Transport Jagersfontein arriving at Pearl Harbor
- US Army Transport Cynthia Olson enroute Pearl Harbor
- Norwegian Transport Høegh Merchant enroute Pearl Harbor
- British Cargo Ship Ariadne Moller at sea near Hong Kong, enroute Manila
- Norwegian Cargo Ship Nordhval at sea near Guam
- US Oiler Brazos enroute Dutch Harbor
- US Oiler Sepulga enroute Pearl Harbor
Anyone have any others??
