History REMADE! In the first campaign, the carriers Soho and Lex were sunk and the Allies were taking a beating on the water when their Cruiser force snuk behind the Jap carrier force and annihilated the Invasion fleet! Game over!!! Meanwhile on land, the airfields at Lae and Rabaul took a pasting by the combined efforts of B17s and B26s.

Campaign Part Deux saw the players remixed and the rules changed to reflect what we have learned from the first one as well as some new evidence discovered. The Japs won this campaign by successfully invading Port Moresby and sinking 2 Allied carriers while having over half the Invasion fleet sunk and the Shoho eliminated.

This 3rd re-iteration of the campaign (CSIII) will be started in Oct 2010 and will have numerous changes. 1st - Blue Skies series stats have been changed to better reflect actual a/c speeds, ammo limits, & a/c stats that are not available in that series. 2nd - GQ3 will be used for naval engagements. 3rd - OOBs will be enhanced by what if units, both naval & a/c.
