I shall remember to use it in the future Mog;) Once in the 1.00 version I lost five USN subs due to mines in one turn!:eek:

Worst mine nightmare

Post by mogami »

Hi, I believe my all time worst encounter with mines came during the great series of battles for San Cristabol Island in first game with Erik. My IJN transport fleet steamed in to unload and the game locked up (I thought) then I noticed the scrolling yellow text message "so-and-so maru hits mine repeated with monotny as the hands on the clock moved on. I had even sent a TF of minesweepers along but they all perished before they made a dent in the mine field from 20,000 fathoms (and reaching to near the ionosphere) Long the alarm bells rang admist the explosions that night:eek: :eek: :eek:

Now I've seen every thing

Post by mogami »

Greetings, OK Dan we have to post that replay so the rest of the world can confirm I just saw what I just think I saw.
Did one of your flying boats just glide in un-opposed and drop
a big noisy egg on my sub sitting peacefully at Port Moresby?
Tell me I didn't see that sucker just come in like a flying boxcar and take a dump on that sub. I'm seeing things right??? Been up too many hours and now my eyes are playing tricks on me.

Hi Mogami

I can confirm that I noticed that as well but the airplane did not report any hits on the sub. Was it damaged?

US siezes NG Bases!!!

Post by mogami »

Greetings, In PBEM game Mog/Allied U2/Japan the allies have advanced up to Lae capturing all bases enroute. At Lae allied bombers pound Japanese ground forces. Soon Mid and Lower NG will all be in allied hands.

On San Cristabol Island the Japanese are pinned in their base and suffering air attacks daily while the Marines and Americal rest in luxery to the north.

Lae Captured

Post by mogami »

Greetings, Allies capture Lae. estimate 3-4 weeks remain in campaign to capture mid NG. supply should improve now that I have a nice airbase. (once it repairs)
In the SPac The Corps on San Cristabol continues to hold the advantage as the Japanese are withering (well they will wither once I stop those stinking barge runs)

Hi

While I made the Salomon Islands into Fortress Pacific I neglected the defence of the NG bases but also failed to notice a massive buildup until it was too late. I have made several mistakes at NG from the start and I am now paying for that. One must remain focused and sharp on all areas when playing Mogami.

The situation at San Cristabol remains unchanged and they should be able to hold out for a long time (I hope).

Fade away?

Post by Widi »

We've had no posts from our two protagonists for some time now (a month).

What's the good word? How fares the wars(s)? This has been a marvelous thread to sit in on, is it over now?

Come on guys, don't stop now. =)

You don't sound like you really want to move. Why do you have to, school?

Hi Ron,

To leave one of the greatest cities in the world for a small rural town is not easy:( Yes, it because I need to take a final degree at another University. But a new city means new bars and women to check out:D

War continues

Post by mogami »

Greetings. The game Mogami/IJN-Dan/USN was delayed by a bug that is reported fixed. We will likely need to reun the last turn to verify this. (Dan you still have the file?)

Hi Mog

Mogami IJN vs Dan USN
I have a turn but its the one after the battle. I think you send the turn before the battle to Mike Wood right?

Mogami USN vs Dan IJN
Aye, turn waiting. Let me just take away some dust and get on top of the situation first:)

BTW: Are now back online on your own computer?

At long last

Post by mogami »

Greetings. Persons who have PBEM games on hold may now send turn files to Farawayelf@aol.com. Replies might be delayed a bit till Oct when I will be able to resume normal 24/7 operations
But I would expect to be able to handle at least 1 turn a day while I set up. I have no old save files on my computer.
