<t> I'm now at Turn 180 and the end of my Guadalcanal Diary. The Allies have gained a decisive victory over the Japanese.<br/>
<br/>
My key naval losses were the Saratoga, Enterprise, Wasp and one CVE, two CAs and one CL (many CAs and CLs have been damanged). No BBs went down, but a number of them ...

<r> I'm back! Now up to around turn 168. (Started playing again during Thanksgiving). Here's a summary of where we stand:<br/>
<br/>
Basically I've lost the CVs Big E and the <I><s>[i]</s>Saratoga<e>[/i]</e></I>, and one CVE. The <I><s>[i]</s>Hornet<e>[/i]</e></I> and <I><s>[i]</s>Wasp<e>[/i]</e ...

RogueUSMC,

Thanks for the reply. Already aboard, just moved WItP to a different computer. Currently doing the Guadalcanal campaign (at a very slow pace, have been too busy to get back until recently).

RogueUSMC,

Thanks. I reloaded v 1.50, v 1.84 and v 1.86 in order as suggested and it worked like a charm (the most trouble I had was finding my serial no. which I finally was able to do).

I loaded WitP onto my portable computer. When I try lanch (Loading Files), I get a Fatal Error 999. What's the issue here?

<t> CDNice,<br/>
<br/>
Welcome aboard the Good Ship WitP! Where fun, adventure (and addiction) lurk at every turn. And most importantly, the folks here are glad to help newcomers out. This game has more interesting nuances than you can imagine (and I've only done 114 turns or so in the Guadalcanal ...

The original Panzer General STILL IS A GREAT GAME.&nbsp; PG runs on our original computer (yes, a 386 DX 25 converted to a 486 DX2 50 that still runs just fine).&nbsp; Besides PG, we have all the classic DOS games, including Railroad Tycoon and Railroad Tycoon ...

<t> Matrix's Guns of August (I'm a WWI buff).&nbsp; Also, occasionally, Grisby's World at World: A World Divided.&nbsp; After that, it's boardgames, both Eurogames like Carcassonne, Settlers of Catan, Railroad Tycoon the Boardgame, etc., and wargames, primarily CDGs such as Paths of Glory, Pursuit ...

<r> Now up to turn 114.&nbsp; (Sorry for not posting for a while, but the last 2 weeks has been hectic, to say the least.)&nbsp; Lost the Big&nbsp;E to a sub torpedo attack trying to limp her back to Noumea for repairs (350 points, ouch!).&nbsp; The Wasp is now operational with the CVE Long Island ...

<r> In <I><s>[i]</s>Where Eagles Dare<e>[/i]</e></I>, when Lieutenant Shaffer (played by Clint Eastwood) said, when he climbed in the window of the Schloss Adler (Eagles Nest):&nbsp; "Major (referring to Richard Burton's character), you sure have a lot of women stashed in this country."&nbsp; Just ...

John,
&nbsp;
Definitely a great AAR from you and Dan.&nbsp; Good luck and Good Hunting with your other AAR!

Dan,
&nbsp;
I echo everyone elses' comments, a great AAR from you and John.&nbsp; Good luck in the future and Good Hunting!

<r> Now up to turn 101, and&nbsp;the Japanese AI decided to throw a "surprise" at me in the form of the Kido Butai (aka "KB") off of Buka.&nbsp; The KB comprised the CVs <I><s>[i]</s>Shokaku<e>[/i]</e></I> and <I><s>[i]</s>Zuikaku<e>[/i]</e></I>, and the CVLs <I><s>[i]</s>Zuiho<e>[/i]</e></I> and <I ...

In the movie In Harm's Way, what Captain Eddington (played by Kirk Douglas) said when asked "how should I log this flight":&nbsp; "Joyride for the Chief of Staff."

John 3rd,
&nbsp;
Looks like overkill to me!&nbsp; A puny AVD versus 1 CL and 8 DDs.&nbsp; Enjoy.

Chez,
&nbsp;
Or what about the scene where the boss (General Pritchard played by Mitchell Millard) for General Savage chews him out (for not turning back)&nbsp;so that&nbsp;the 918th is the only bomber group to make it to and hit the target?

Witpqs,
&nbsp;
So you know about Pykrete, eh?&nbsp; Pyke (a true brillant but eccentric individual) was also the force behind the Weasel, as well as what became the "Devil's Brigade."

Apollo 11,
&nbsp;
You're right about Jimmy Stewart as a B-17 pilot (and didn't want any publicity about it or to be treated differently from any other bomber pilot, including being assigned to tough missions).

Erik (one to another),
&nbsp;
Thanks, this is great news to share.&nbsp; If I wasn't playing WitP (takes up plenty of my spare time), I'd be playing GOA.

Misconduct,
&nbsp;
You get a "gold star".&nbsp; I finally checked the sub (actually the Greenling) and it was out of torpedoes (may not have even been loaded when it first arrived).&nbsp; Now heading back to Nomea to reload.
