disagry in that that's a poor tip of the spear place to make a last
China Sea stand.

Pull everyone back to what the japs wanted/need.
Oilfields of the Dutch East Indies. And give A.B.D.A.Com a fighting chance.
Try to delay them, there, if you simply MUST obey Mahan Doctrine to and "crossing the T".

I've run this in sim's BTW... japan struggles here attacking (not concentrating) too
many things at once. Philippines buy ABDACOM some sandbagging time.

And you end up with a decent Air+Land+Sea defensive equation.
(not an go on he offensive ground-gainer by any means and a near thing defensively)

Tho' that's a chance... and Guam and Wake just: "agryed", too.
