Port Moresby

<r>Hey folks. Still enjoying what is rapidly becoming my favorite game.<br/>
<br/>
I was hoping for some input into what you all do to curtail raids by the Japanese AI with surface task forces on Port Moresby. Against the AI, I invariably take Gili Gili, but Even still, I find the Japanese launch ...

Thanks. Kampfgruppe was one of my favorite games to work on, and one of Gary's most popular ever (probably second only to the Steel Panthers series). I still remember when the manual ...

Coral Sea was a strategic victory...in some ways, since it effectively prevented Zuikaku & Shokaku from showing up at Midway (would Nimitz have even risked 3 carriers at Midway if he'd known that the IJN was sailing with 6?), it was ...

Gili Gili and the Japanese AI

<r>Grr.<br/>
<br/>
First off, UV is probably the best wargame I've bought since the TOAW series...Grigsby/Brors have done well again, and Matrix has done a good job with the production/support thus far...can't wait for WITP.<br/>
<br/>
Now that the obligatory congrats are done, I'm really struggling ...
