IMPORTANT!!!!

FIELD 6, is visible on the island but DO NOT LAND THERE. You will be counted as a ditch and captured....
(we will fix it in the scoring later, but its a pain so please don't) F6 historically was not built until after the allies
capture the entire island of Bougainville so to be historic it is NOT in play.

YOU MAY LAND AT F5. F5 is a Port with an airfield It is to be used as a port with an emergency landing strip only.

Allies may not 'Base' at F5.

Please make your squads aware of this. The airstrip at F5 is right on the shoreline...the one that is inland is F6.

Which bomber field are we to use? Is it up to us? We are to close 37 as well I assume? Is there any intel on JPN forces, aircraft particularly? Questions, questions, questions!

Can the REDs base from F37 or restricted to emergency landing like F5 for the GREENs?

-pmhb-,

I would expect that F37 will be in use for the Japs. If not a base to start at; I'm sure it will be used to land and rearm at. I'd make it a 1st sortie priority to close myself. It should be an easier target to close then with the eggs left to bomb the coast watchers 27, 26, 20.

My 2 cents FWIW <S>

Your answer in the General Forum says " info in allied forum".

I would take that to mean the Axis have no basing
restriction, unless he doesn't want us to know.

Does that mean a quick bombing sortie to VILLA (37) AIRFLD? If heavily defended that could be an ideal low level B25 sortie with fighter cover before the longer trip to close the northernmost fields. Is this our decision or are there overall, over-arching master plans afoot?
