American Objectives

• Sink the Yamato
• The Allied carriers must survive

Japanese Objectives

• Sink the American carriers
• Yamato must survive

This is a rather interesting battle, and is the only map that contains the Yamato aside from Sibuyan Sea. The Allies are separated into two fleets, each with a few destroyers, a carrier, and a battleship. The Japanese have a similar fleet, but instead with one carrier, one battleship, and multiple escorts.

The Yamato is extremely tough, but it isn't invincible - the Allied carriers in particular have a strong advantage over it, and it can even fall to the American battleships if the Americans are skilled in naval warfare.

This is all just a giant flat sea, so there is nowhere to run for the carriers aside from away from the Yamato.
