After a short mandatory Summer break, the team is back in action. The newer patch

• New scenario: "Kantai Kessen". Protect a relief convoy on its way to Midway as the Japanese navy tries to interdict it and provoke a decisive engagement with your carriers. Enterprise, Hornet, Yorktown and Saratoga are making a pincer around the enemy fleet - will it hold long enough?

  • Note: the relief force in Midway is the first occurrence of an allied non-player naval unit in a scenario. You cannot change its course or speed for now, so do try to sweep ahead of it. It can also set as a target to be covered with CAP from your carriers.

• New objects fully integrated: BB Yamato, BB Nagato, CA Mogami, APD Manley.

• Japanese seaplanes can now carry bombs (Jake, Pete) and torpedoes (Mavis, Emily) when allowed to strike. Beware.

• A new pop-up was added to allow you to jump to your strike in the 3D view when it makes contact with the enemy. It works along the same lines as the current fighter alert, and can be disabled in the settings.

• Several fixes done to the GUI for widescreens.

• Fixed several AI and GUI bugs, along with a few new crashes.

Have fun & take care!
