<t> I would like to see more small scenarios focused around surface combat......<br/>
<br/>
1) DEI scenario (that doesn't include Mayala and the Philipines)<br/>
2) Slot Battles of the Solomons <br/>
<br/>
and a central pacific nimitiz offensive scenario would be cool as well...with a map ...

thats what happens when you drive on the turnpike during rush hour, 50 years later you've finally gotten off at your exit

USS Blue Transferring Casualties off Tulagi, August 1942

<r> good question...here's my thoughts....based on a stock game...in terms of 3 different catagories....<br/>
1) need to be saved<br/>
2) would be nice to save, but expendable<br/>
3) can be expended<br/>

<t> Interesting use of your BB's at Singapore for constant bombardments, in support of the troops on Mayala, will imagine it falling much sooner. Haven't seen this done yet in an AAR. Looks as if your BB's have suffered no damage thus far, as well. Question though, have you hit any mines yet? In my ...

I would never go in India if i don't intend to conquer all country . You will lose a lot of planes in fights with hurricanes and that is every allied player wet dream <E>:)</E> . I allways like when my oponents send zero's on my hurricans ...

<t> ohhh..the carnage, i'm starting to have vivid flashbacks of Tom running hog wild through the DEI.<br/>

I like the idea of a Scenario 8 game, however i suspect the allied player to be uber aggressive with his forces, without fear off wasting resources for a 1943 offensive. <br/>

has if the weather model been adjusted?

is it possible for a player to better forecast the weather?

will Ocean island (near the gilberts) be added?

also will Nauru and Ocean Island get resource points to simulate their phosphate deposits?

Ok, I've never lost India before so I have a question. Will the British and Indian troops and airgroups still receive reinforcements if they are at a fully supplied base with a HQ?

and so it ends.....nice job finishing out our game towards the end....

question.....with the devastation of japanese industry and supply.....how was the effect on the japanese army??...were reinforcements coming in half strength?...was it tougher to recover from diablements?

I was wondering if Tinian and Siapan were rolled into 1 hex (since they are well w/in 40 miles of each other). If so was Rota Is. Added?

...wrong place
