<t> So, with help from the forum I have WitP back. I've read a few AARs and now I have a rash, or maybe that's the fever...<br/>
<br/>
Soooo anyone want a game??<br/>
<br/>
I'll lay some pretty restrictive ground rules due to circumstances:<br/>
<br/>
I do not yet have a house after moving to ...

<t> Yes, thankfully operation "pull your finger out" managed to sort things. With some valuable help from members on the forum I managed to get the old beast working again.<br/>
&nbsp;<br/>
Thanks to all those concerned - I am very grateful (the wife is not so much - but then I'm a "stay at home ...

The issue is that I have moved house. I have changed banks, and I have changed email addresses!!! Talk about try my very best to make sure I can't play it again!
&nbsp;
I'll try and get CD cleaners on the job but it is only a copy so I don't hold out much hope with that avenue.

<t> So, I've been reading a few posts on the forum, a few AARs and so I figure, what the hey, I'll take out WitP and load her up again. <br/>
<br/>
How do you say 'cyclic redundancy check' without adding an expletive at the end?<br/>
<br/>
This was a download copy that has long since passed out ...

<t> Hi Lecivius;<br/>
&nbsp;<br/>
Welcome to the mammoth effort that is writing a WitP AAR.<br/>
&nbsp;<br/>
A few thoughts:<br/>
&nbsp;<br/>
Firstly, completely agree with 2nd ACR, go back to your opponent and change the rule that you can only attack with 1 Div at a time. On atolls this will ...

Short time lurker, then long time player, then curious dog: sniffing his way back to teh forums to reminisce.<br/>

It was my memory that I kept the game under control by playing it at a couple of levels: Essentially there is: <br/>
The strategic ...

<t> Oh man "the Breech" - that was both funny and disturbing. That's what happens when people read half an email that wasn't addressed to them in the first place - oops!<br/>
&nbsp;<br/>
Pardon my great tardiness in offering my congratulations. It also sounds like you've managed to keep a 'game ...

<t> It does sound like a slog now. You are a trooper though - seeing it to the end. Sounds very much like you have given as much as you got despite the 'allied superiority'.<br/>
&nbsp;<br/>
No, I was basically 'banned' from the game by the missus. As you have also found it can become a bit of a ...

<t> Ah PzB what did&nbsp;we start???<br/>
&nbsp;<br/>
Be very careful about stopping. As you may or may not know, I was forced to do so, all that meant is I had to find something else to do. Now there's another mouth to feed!!<br/>
&nbsp;<br/>
Nice trip down memory lane though. You are a trooper ...

<t> As anyone who plays me knows, if I think I am on top I really try and put the boot in. I tried this in Malaya, as Herb writes, attacking with only the Brits. My thinking was that the Americans had thumped all hell out of the combined fleet and I had been tearing strips out of the Jap airforce ...

<t> OK, so I am in the Santa Cruz scenario and I manage to meet the Jap bombardment mission after (woops) they have managed to complete their bombardment. I meet them with the Washington group at long range. Despite getting into contact they ALWAYS manage to break contact.<br/>
<br/>
Fine, says I ...

<t> So far I am enjoying the game but I do wonder about the way that a few things have been done.<br/>
<br/>
Firstly the air attack animation. Why was the decision made to put the result of each attack (in the air sqd window in the bottom right of the screen) before the animated planes actually do ...

What size is the download?

<t> I am going to add my 2 cents to this as well.<br/>
&nbsp;<br/>
As others have stated - range is not your friend. Therefore:<br/>
&nbsp;<br/>
Consider putting react orders to on - 6 hexes - to make sure you get as close as you can with this 1000 pounders. <br/>
&nbsp;<br/>
Also, nerf the ...

<t> I have done the usual trawl through the forums but the search engine seems beyond my meagre skill to find what I am after.<br/>
<br/>
There appears to be an ongoing issue with splitting air units between two locations.<br/>
When you fly the mother unit to a location, leaving planes and pilots ...

Hi RAM
&nbsp;
I've had this happen as well - it can be very nasty indeed.

As an addendum. I wouldn't be surprised if the bombardment TFs had reverted to SCTFs after bombarding. Can't say for sure of course

<t> Yep Brian's bang on the money. I did have a surface combat TF but had converted it to a bombardment TF the turn before. It retired to reload. The bombardment TFs had done this and were returning to unleash on the base again.<br/>
Bombardment TFs fired at the base and the Jap surface combat ...

Didn't really want to commit that surface force, but I was getting so much amusement from the terror that those CD guns were visiting upon your invasion fleet - couldn't let you go and spoil the party before it's over. Too bad I had to do it ...

<t> Hi Herwin<br/>
&nbsp;<br/>
yeah Brian is complaining about the pilot quality now - flak has been the killer rather than fighters in the stock game. He had a naval strike of about 110 betties and nells, against AKs and APs unloading, and only managed 7 torp strikes. So obviously the pilot ...
