Default Re: Biak: Thwarting MacAuthur's drive on the Philippines

an interesting little something...

The Undisclosed Truth of Biak

I agree with Falcon, whoever ruled the seas would control the situation. Air as well, but weather/range (night-day) and tiny support puts that ( I think) secondary.
Radar directed weapons is a plus for night battles, but so are torpedo's.
The amount of destroyers, and their Captains abilities are paramount.
