I was a bit limited when posting as the effect of the Water leak had taken out WiFi and Internet was slow.

Battle was a fictional forces at Java Sea , Repulse and Prince of Wales had not been caught and sunk with the fall of Singapore and had joined the ABDA forces at Java. The Japanese had responded with 2 Kong Class Battlecruisers.

The Rules were Warlords Victory At Sea  as Asgard sells those, though the ship models were a mix of GHQ and CinC 1/2400th , the later don’t  seem to be in production anymore.

The ABDA forces did way better than historically  , with the Criser Squadron  sinking one of the Japanese Light Cruisers early on, then 3 British Destroyers got in Close to the Japanese Battlecruisers  crippling the Kongo, Prince of Wales chewed up the one of the Japanese Heavy Cruisers and Repulse sank the crippled Kongo. The Japanese at this point began to pull away, but in the exchange lost another Light Cruiser, and had another Heavy Cruiser mauled , but managed to sink one of the Dutch Cruisers either Torps.
