Updated thread index post to all February 1942 and page 40 of this monster thread.
Half a dozen of juicy management posts there.

5, switching 1 off in the unlikely event of reaching a large reserve. You might want them to be filling your groups fast.

<r> Since it has been years and I'm getting confused, I've decided to re-read the whole thread and make an index for this while doing it, listing the main management posts, daily reports and interesting, little know, game mechanics.<br/>
With 88 pages of posts, it will take a while, tho, so this ...

Mike, I've sent you two PMs with a link to the actual manual, but neither appear in my sent folder. To rule automatic deletion by the system, could you confirm reception?

If not, if you provide me an email address, I'll send it there.

ups. my bad. but I'll fix it. PM.

My wife, some time ago, "put away" my game and I can't find it. I need to find it to get the rules book to look up this stuff myself.<br/>

Oh, my, goodness, Mike is back and this thread is alive! I had to dig out my forum's credential from my old computer just to say welcome back!

Wood and steel, very basic controls, awful sight and manouvrability, no weapons except a 800 kgs, round rather than elliptical section for easier production. I think they even lacked a landing gear.

I think they wanted to produce 8 or 10 thousand of those every month.

That leaves the full KB at Truk to counter whatever Ted throws my way when he's ready (probably at the end of May). <br/>

Indeed it is. They are actually the crests of the 4 Maritime Republics (Venice, Genoa, Amalfi and Pisa) crowned by the Carthaginian ship's rosters fashioned as a crown.

some Gorizia's in my CA forces that can take a punch

That didn't help them much at Matapan, sadly. Most accounts state they did last less than 5 minutes under point blank fire from the 15 inches of 3 BBs...

Whatever happened to this AAR? Did I miss something?

<t> I still think a raider cruise with KB south.east of the Salomon would be, now that he is still short of CVs, a good idea insofar:<br/>
<br/>
- it would probably lead to the localization of at least (possibly more, considering he has to supply PM and possibly NZ) one US-Australia convoy ...

Com'on, you can manage... what are nights for if not for posting updates?

GREAT to have you back!
It's funny, I had checked the forumjust yesterday to see if by any chance I had missed anything and finding it still mute, i was kinda worrying.
welcome back
(and send your carriers to have a raid south-east!)

<t> Ok, it took 13 days to catch up with the thread... that's how information dense the posts of this thread are.<br/>
And of course I found out you are deploying... great, I get addicted to an AAR and the author moves from a virtual war to a shooting one. Not fair. Seriously, tho, take acre and ...

<r> Hi,<br/>
<br/>
while I'm still 1/6th thro catching up and I'll avoid asking questions or commenting on things that are now 1 year or more old, I've a general question originating from the (for me) horror stories of weeks to plan the first turn compounded with the likelihood I'll screw ...

<r> Just a greeting from Italy,<br/>

Played eons ago, i think my last full game against the computer was in 2010. Took the game back 6 months ago, wanted to try japan, I ended up without planes by mid 1942 and learned that economy is something. Found the original AAR, finished reading it 5 ...
