Does anyone have an OOB for the Battle of the Coral Sea? I know which carriers were present but not the supporting battleships, cruisers, destroyers submarines, and auxilliary ships. Any help will be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

You get disagreements over gunboats and minesweepers, but for the general gist:

The old Wargames magazine The General had a great order of battle in the Midway Expansion issues. Also S&T had one as well.

Thank you Dom. Lots of info on both links. Rudy you wouldn't happen to know what issues of The General those OOBs would be in would you? I'm sure in addition to the OOB they have some more backgrond information. I'm tryinng to set up an A&A War at Sea Scenario in a couple of weeks. Thanks for all y'alls help.

Texas;

If you e-mail me privately, I can supply the OOB for the USN & ANZAC forces and IJN forces in the Coral Sea.

Bruce, I'd take him up on that one; rumour has it Mark knows a little bit about that sort of thing…. ;-)

Hey Dom, I have much of the Japanese fleet in 1/700. I thought I was the only one! Crazy one that is.

:-)

Thanks,

John

Dom, contemplating his Skywave Kamikawa Maru….
