Thanks bombr for the summary. That about covers it, but after trying 77 again, we were chased by the JG51 and lost 1 to them. The port was a mess of Red
when we snuck out to the South....looked like the whole IJN force was around. In one of the fights around the port, i was chased down by a couple of 352nd
KI 43s. They were close to being co-alt near the deck with us and I thought I might outrun them, to no avail. Todzla and his buddy were wthin D1-D3 while picking off pieces, until my left wing folded.
All in all was a fun and exciting night for us. Especially when we were able to knock out the ack and radar at 77 with no losses. We dealt with the cards we got and
did what we could,,,,sorry it wasn't a better outcome.
