<t> Yeah I appreciate that it is just a temporary internet outage on my part and we have already carried on with the game. <br/>
<br/>
The only reason I reported it is that I was able to see my opponents turn and gain an unfair advantage - In describing the loss of connection I was just trying to ...

<t> Hi,<br/>
<br/>
I tried to upload a pbem turn, but it failed. There was no error message I was just presented with the blank menu screen you see when the game is loading. This lasted around 15 mins or so until I used task manager to close the program.<br/>
<br/>
I checked the server and it ...

Hi are you still looking for an opponent?

I'd like to play the 1939 scenario as the allies - will be first pbem so a learning experience for me too.

<t> Frequently when playing a detailed Naval battle with around 20 ships a side (which I don't think is stupidly oversized) I find my tactics are constrained by the size of the battlefield. For example, attempting to pull ahead of the enemy fleet and 'cross the T' or any sort of manuvering to gain ...

<t> Well I'd never seen it and had no idea that patrol planes would fight each other. I assumed the nature of their mission would prohibit attacking enemy planes. <br/>
<br/>
Then again when playing the allies in the early months the B-17 does seem to be the only air to air weapon capable of ...

<r> This site I was linked to is the (true) story a Japanese POW in Russian labour camps after WW2. Its presented (in a somewhat surreal fashion for such harrowing subject matter) as a series of hand drawn cartoons with (poorly translated) commentary.<br/>

<t> How long did the offensive against cities last? I was under the impression that the second daylight raid on london incurred such heavy losses the Germans switched to night raids. Was their an earlier campaign against smaller towns? The speed with which the Luftwaffe switched to night raids would ...

<r> Hey,<br/>
<br/>
20 something seeks opponent for War in the Pacific. Prefers to play Allies but can bat for the other side when required. Ideal respondent would keep house rules simple - say 6 ship ASW max, no overloading airfields, no 4E bombing below 10000ft perhaps including a few of your ...

<t> Yamato Hugger,<br/>
<br/>
the problems you state are all well thought out and show the difficultly a computer game has portraying the entirety of the war in the pacific. The counter arguments I would present are:<br/>
<br/>
Allied Air operating out of China - It would have been a logistic ...

<t> I disagree about removing China. Even though land combat in China is laborious and rarely offers the satisfaction of a sudden ambush on the high seas the fact that its there is a major part of the appeal of War in The Pacific to me. It showcases the complete war against Japan in a way that most ...

<r> You ain't seen nothing yet. This little action a few days ago made me very sad...<br/>

<t> We'll thats the advantage of steaming away from Japanese airpower instead of into its teeth I suppose. Was there a landing at Kuching on Dec 8th '41 that Force Z could have gone after instead of heading north up the malay peninsula (I didn't think there was but I dont know that much about the ...

What is an APD? I mean I've seen them in game, and the ASW/Fast transport roles make sense given their statistics, but what were they designed to do? From the designation "APD" I'd guess they were a troop carrying destroyer hybrid? But thats really clutching at straws.

<t> Not Museum, but still history related, a history professor told us about a phone call from a TV studio who wanted to make a reality show about the training people would receive to become a Knight. Specifically they wanted to know how many times someone could take their "Knight Exams".<br/>

<t> I'm always fond of the scene in a Bridge too Far just after the Waal river assault and the tanks are pouring over the Nimijgen (sp) road bridge, the German SS officer orders the bridge blown and it doesn't work - he says something like "My god there only xx kilometres from Arnhem! Who can stop ...

At the risk of stating the obvious it sounds like Admiral Tanaka's error has already been spotted by the audience. Here's hoping Hibiki doesn't suffer for it.

<t> Having just reached the end/current event point of this AAR I'd like to say thanks for keeping us up to date with this amazing game.<br/>
<br/>
Also a question: You mentioned Columbo is heavily garrisoned. Are sufficent shipping and troops availdable to maybe counter land at Trivirandum (sp ...

<t> I dont look at many top secret documents, but I was struck by the writing style too. I always thought reports like that would be sort of bullet points a la:<br/>

a) TEMPEST discovered WW2, rediscovered by CIA<br/>
<br/>
b) It does this / Implications<br/>

c) Ways to prevent it ...

Was just playing a stock turn and noticed one of the Australian Buffalo squadrons upgrades to Vengances. 21 or 24 RAAF I think.
