Background
During World War II, ABDACOM (American-British-Dutch-Australian Command) was a short-lived military alliance formed in early 1942 to coordinate the defense of Southeast Asia against the advancing Japanese forces. It comprised military forces from the United States, Britain, the Netherlands, and Australia.

However, due to various challenges such as limited resources, communication difficulties, and the overwhelming strength of the Japanese forces, ABDACOM faced significant setbacks. The alliance was unable to effectively coordinate its efforts, and its member nations suffered major defeats, this provides an opportunity to rewrite the course of history and reverse the tides of adversity.

The Mod incorporates a number of additional ships and a new map with two campaigns of the Dutch East Indies:
Allied Campaign - The ABDACOM Defensive.
Japanese Campaign - Centrifugal Offensive.

Features

• All new East Indies map, with new bases and full tactical map alignment.
• Japanese DEI Campaign - "Centrifugal Offensive"
• Updated Allied DEI Campaign - "ABDACOM Defensive"
• Introduced extended range to some fighters utilising drop tanks.
• Complete overhaul of AI gameplay, with more realistic player experiences, utilising increased aircraft ordnance dispersion, increased sub and decreased torpedo detection ranges, this is variable depending on weather conditions.
• Lowered submarine torpedo accuracy by limiting the maximum solution for subs to 50%. This adjustment was made in response to the core game's exceptionally precise torpedo targeting systems.
• Rebalanced ship damage to represent historical damage and realistic time ships actually sink. (the game has ships sinking way to quickly)
• New sound effects taken from (Berserker45, AoBaMaoGG and KilluH) sound mods.
• New Japanese themed music.
• New Diamond Formation for Aircraft.
• New Merchant Naval Flags for Japan, UK, Australia, and the Netherlands.
• Rebalanced all weapons (refactored using Garzke and Dulin Empirical Formula), torpedoes and bombs to now better represent historical damage.
• Uses Apollonir's "Pacific Mod" modified resource mechanics, you will now have to manage your bases resource flow.
• Added realistic sea states which reflect real world weather, using the Beaufort Scale (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beaufort_scale)
• Broken and Overcast Days have a more realistic ambiance.
• Separate "Merchant Ship Resource values" text file located in main folder for referencing.
• Improved ship maneuverability mechanics to deliver a more authentic gaming experience.
• All aircraft are compatible with KFG's new aircraft mechanics.
• AI fighters no longer strafe player ships.
