Background:
In a fictional campaign during WW2 allied forces have recently established small bases on Guam and Rota. A detachment of RAF and USAF fighters are tasked with supporting offensive operations towards Tinian and Saipan islands in the north. US and Japanese naval forces are maneuvering around the Mariana islands and a major naval engagement has just started with raids from carrier based aircraft.
Situation:
We are moving supplies up to Aguijan by ship in preparation for offensive operations, provide CAP for the ships and reserve some anti-ship capability in case the Japs try to charge in with fast boats. Also, a new Japanese ace nicknamed Seiryu (Azure Dragon) has arrived with a small elite fighter unit, he is based out of Saipan. Look out for any red/black painted aircraft, they belong to the “Black Dragons” unit.
