I started my game against the AI in August 2009 with three day turns. It is currently 15 June 1943. I find this thread oddly reassuring.

Halsey--Thanks a bunch. Will download beta as directed.

Thanks. I think I get it. Will try tonight.

<t> Please pardon the question from the technologically-incompetent. I downloaded the artwork from the website (which look great, by the way) according to the instructions (creating a sub-file in the Art file, unzipping there, etc.) . However, the artwork is not appearing when I open the game. I am ...

I second what bushpsu said. I don't have the time for a PBEM. The three day turn makes it more of a game vs. the AI. It is hard to sit through the turn cycle, though, when something bad happens on Turn 1.

It is 9 January 1942, & I have a US sub (cargo capacity 42) at Darwin with orders to load supplies and proceed to Bataan. Darwin has about 10k worth of supplies. The sub has been there four days and has yet to load. What am I doing wrong?

A little Filipino gold being unloaded at Pearl, no doubt.
