I've been making good progress with the Sakishima islands but after some more detailed research I decided to include northern Formosa on my map. I had originally contemplated doing Formosa as a separate map after finishing this one, but I now realize that most of the kamikaze raids on the British Pacific Fleet originated from the airfields of northern Formosa.
The map now covers enough of Formosa to allow all of the Royal Navy operations while not being too big. The map measures 550Km by 300Km, with mountains of up to 4000m.
I may produce a full Formosa map in the future but it won't include the Sakishima islands.
I could really use some more reference on the northern Formosa airfield especially Shinchiku and Matsuyama.
