planes losses today

[Sneer]

points as always

[pauk]

oh my God....

What he was doing with these CVEs? They weren't damaged in previous battles, right?

[Sneer]

no
there is fleet concentration at Pago Pago
i think he left ships to cover damaged Hornet on her way home ...or decided to strike when KB moves to Japan for rest&refit-i'm low on sorties after last battle -some carriers are able to only cap
there are few cruiser containing TFs
if i move out of theater he still would have unsratched RN and lots of US cruiser to cover landing - i see many transports there - or their cargo was very valuable

[Sneer]

There was retreat path to ths SW in last 3-4 days but he did not choose it
after long phase of force conservation we went in "blow exchange "

oh-oh! this game should reach 1946 according to the lastest results!

I've never seen such mighty Japanese strike in 1943! Well Sneer it seems you are among the Immortals!

Btw, Poland is going to loose todays football match against Croatia

[Sneer]

probably yes - polish soccer team has never been magnificant since late 80's and now they are simply weak - so you will have great opportunity to empty few bottles beer
but today i'm not watching TV - i have tickets to martial arts tournment in the evening -should be more interesting then watching our soccer team

truth is it is end of this battle - 2 weeks of constant fight
i simply have not enough ammo to continue - enemy is numerous - and it is an omen - even with all bullets shot by mighty samurai warriors enemy will overhelm our position sooner or later
but i will do my best
number of reserve Tojo/Tonys exceeds 1500 and rises steadily
soon Jacks will reach frontline units
and i managed to kill quite a lot of 4e and p38 during last few days
enemy lost ap 5x90 +70+3x30 =610 naval aviation capacity more than JPN fleet carriers capacity at this moment

[invernomuto]

Greetings Sneer,
congrats, excellent results!

Could you post  your A/C production please?

How many Nakajima engines do you produce? Which factories did you expand? I've just begun producing Tojos in 7/42 and I require about 950 nakajima / month. I produce about 780 nak. / month right now (but Oscar factories should upgrade to Tony, so Nakajima need should decrease next month) .

Bye

[pauk]

hi inver, don't think he will post it - this is joint AAR[:)]. Also I forgot it earlier.

"BB North Carolina, Bomb hits 15, Torpedo hits 3, on fire, heavy damage "

Was North Carolina in port, or in a TF? If it was in port, how did torpedoes hit it? And if it wasn't in port, why was it shelled during the bombardment?

I thought that aerial torpedoes only worked during the Pearl Harbor attack. If they are allowed to work in any port, then this Game is still buggered up beyond belief...
