Now uses Apollonir's "Pacific Mod" custom mechanics, you will now have to manage your resources.

Reduced level bombing accuracy to better represent the "historical" difficulty of trying to hit ships from heights, this will have a flow on effect by allowing more surface to surface contact rather than aircraft dominating the initial start of the campaign.

Added names to vanilla Japanese and US cargo and oiler ships, doing this limits these assets to each side.

New ships added -Australian and Japanese Troopships.
-New USS Langley model generously supplied by Saelll
