I started to play Pacific War ages ago, I think original WitP came out 2004 and WitP-AE 2009. And I still find new things in game.<br/>

<t> Hey, Scott!!<br/>
Thank you for starting this thread. I am also one returning to game play (after retirement from Ministry) and need some of the same information. I haven't been fully able to return for some time, but have tried (unsuccessfully) to play intermittently. Even trying those ...

<r> Twenty years ago, I would have loved it.... Now pushing 73... EGAD!<br/>
I am going to take all of my teaching and all of my theology books to the local regional library and/or the local college. That is about 42 boxes of books, or about half of my library. My military history books and Sci/Fi ...

In 2018 I was playing against the AI for about 8 month IRL. When I quit I promised myself that I will not play this game again until I am retired in about 25 years. But here I am again. [8D]

Ah...
It pleases me that someone else saw my post, but not about the weather in Mass. Spent one winter up there in my old tincan undergoing some dockside repair/replacement. Colder than a well diggers tukkus. Been having problems getting back on the boards. Ah, Well.

And just when we should expect it here in S. GA., it cooled off. Must have dropped at least 10 degrees last night. WOW! Now we may need to get out the foul weather gear & Artic jackets. (You should have seen it in So. Fla when the temp dropped below 50!!!)

<r> Stress can be a trigger, Huh!?!?!? <br/>
Well, what genius figured that out? <br/>
<br/>
Been dealing with this &*)*& for the last fifty years, and NO THING. The er... practicing physicians (wish they would graduate beyond practicing) haven't the foggiest blooming idea what causes it. <br ...

<t> Well, I am doing fairly well for 72 with a 20+ year old bypass. What I have are aches and pains beginning with working in a warehouse after school for spending money, loading ammunition on the tincan on which I served , or helping my Dad build a bridge over a ditch with cross ties, or being the ...

<t> Concur! When that show was on, my father was still with us... and he grew up in that time frame of that show. He would have been 100 years old in April. What drove me nuts is that he would sit and critique the show for doing things the wrong way.... like milking a cow and not squirting some to ...

<r> Good evening, Thread brethren and sisteren! <br/>
I have not been up for many, many, moons but have now retired and have slowly progressed a wee bit in learning how to BE retired. Without the demand of a weekly bulletin, sermon, and many other ecclesiastical duties, including the ever present ...

In my recent game in April 42 I had a two DD allied TF collide with each other - no combat . Both ships out for ages.

Believe Me! That is a lot better than experiencing that in real life!!

<t> Well, I have done it again. I rescued a barely four week old kitten000000 (who is trying to help meeee type ) who is just cute as all get out. Now all I have to do is convince Gilligan (my 8 year old Tom) who was also rescued, hence the name, that she needs a home too. OY! Taking care of a ...

Ohhhhhhhhhh Myyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy!!
I remember that!!!!!

As a matter of fact, I think I saw someone similarly dressed when my old ship pulled into New York.... OY!!!!!!!!!!!

Go for it! I might like to see it again...

<t> Don't worry. I have been playing this game, and its predecessors for more that 50 years if you count the pre computer version which took a 10 x 10 room (at least) to set up the game and had a locking door to prevent the necessity of a "Paw of Cat" rule. This one is much easier, and also quicker ...
