RE: Naval HQs

<t> Something still does seem a bit odd though. As of 11/42 playing the allies I currently have 12,319 naval support squads available in my pools. I have used a grand total of 1,500 so far and I am accumulating them at a rate of 1,200 per month. Why give us so many if so few units actually use them ...

Well, a quick look at the "amazing" google earth and using the handy measuring tool provided, shows that the docks of Rangoon are about 45 to 50 miles from water deep enough for safe navagation of a large ship. The Yangon River is flat, wide ...

Can someone explain how Japanese battleships can sail into Rangoon

<t> Tiltle says it all. I cannot send a transport of any great size into Rangoon and I certainly cannot send Allied BB's there as well so how do the Japaneses attack ships at sea at Rangoon with BB's?<br/>

Standing down should improve morale, strange if it doesn't. PH airbase is not under attack, I presume? [8D]

Has not been an attack since Dec. 7th and it is currently the Jan 17, 1942.
