<t> To revisit the slightly earlier conversation.. IF the US invades Hokkaido/Northern Honshu.. and IF that did create a Soviet response.. for example a slowing of their advance on Berlin (dubious but plausible) so that they could check the US presence in Asia and also presumably join in the spoils ...

I lose! Steves got it! haha

<t> I agree the plane is mostly likely a Harvard.. <br/>
<br/>
The photo is tricky. Staybrite is a famous brand and signs would have been found anywhere. Little association of Henley and Avon on google or bing.. I am finding pictures of a canal associated with the words Henley and England.. but is ...

<t> I had started a thread on this earlier (its currently on page 2).. here is what I said of it (By the way LoBaron it was released Dec.23rd..)<br/>

Hi guys... most of you dont know me. I was a one time player of WITP whose life just doesnt let him play anymore because I cant be around to ...

<t> The interesting thing now about this AAR is that, having lived in Japan now for 16 years, Ive had opportunities to visit many of the cities you are now mentioning daily. Its sort of an odd feeling. Ive been to Hachinohe a couple of times and its the last stop in the north of the bullet train ...

<t> I thought the Yamato movie was awful, and a terrible wasted chance. Instead of a sappy movie with thought processes that match a 1940s Japan, the characters seemed taken from the Japan of today. There is so much in the real Yamato story that would have made a better movie that I couldnt ...

<t> Hi guys... most of you dont know me. I was a one time player of WITP whose life just doesnt let him play anymore because I cant be around to do turns consistantly enough.<br/>

Anyway.. Im an American but I live in Japan.. 16 years now.<br/>
<br/>
I see some had mentioned the movie on ...

I wonder if you can use this tragedy to set up an ambush.. make it look like you havent learned your lesson.. set some bait..but put your own carriers in a position to strike when he moves up the KB..

just thinking here..

Wow.. yeah, you cant leave for a few hours without something happening.

I hope you recover GJ, especially your morale, which seems to have taken the biggest hit. Live and learn as they say. Good luck in continuing the good fight.

<t> Ha! I did it...read all 150 pages. Excellent AAR. I was a player of WITP..and have this edition but havent played because I just dont have a lifestyle that can commit to it.. but I have enjoyed this a lot. I logged in for the first time in years just to tell you that. <br/>
<br/>
Looking ...

Great AAR..Im just starting with the game.

A couple of real life pointers.. Naha isnt a village. Its a city. Even in 1945. Also, your soldiers wouldnt be "cold and wet"..just wet. Okinawa has a climate similar to Hawaiis.

Anyway, great read, thanks!

<t> Got the game..Im enjoying it. I love WitP actually but dont have the time or schedule for that depth of play.<br/>
<br/>
Just started out.. Im playing around with Guadalcanal.<br/>
<br/>
As the Japanese Im getting reinforcements on transport ships..but I never get a disembark option for them ...

Sequoia.. the BR20s&nbsp;shouldnt be&nbsp;in the game anyway because the IJA hated them and replaced them with Ki-21s as soon as it became available.

<t> I own three.. WITP, Normandy, and WPO.. <br/>

almost bought Carriers at War yesterday.. then read the forums.. and decided against. Then went to Birth of America.. and wasnt sure...<br/>

Does anyone have a recommendation on a game with GOOD AI? My ...

I was extremely disappointed with Letters... I really think Clint just took the completely wrong angle on it..&nbsp; You dont get a feel for the battle at all when you see it I think. But..thats just me I guess

Another thing.. you might be experienceing bad weather at the moment, but its&nbsp;a coincidence. The weather model doesnt take into consideration that you are around the Aleutians and all that implies in real life. Its all on the same weather model from what I understand.

Well..that MiG pilot crashed on the flight line and wiped out like 5 to 10 other MiGs..so unfortunately for him he is unlikely to have any opinion on the matter at all from beyond the grave. But he was a great pilot, if the show was accurate.&nbsp;

Yeah.. the F-86 one was great.. chasing the Mig all the way back to base and shooting it down over its own runway.. Cool.
&nbsp;
&nbsp;

<t> I should have been more clear..Im not blaming you Pzb..obviously you play the game you are given.&nbsp; And I understand there other issues..but this one seems to go to the core of the nature of the war, not the details of how its being fought. <br/>
&nbsp;<br/>
Oh well. Sorry. I started a ...
