Isn't that about when you sank my carriers? I told you it was getting interesting. My thinking was you could still beat me on victory points.

If you think it is futile, I will accept the surrender and we can restart. And maybe neither of us will make the same bonehead mistakes again!

Thats o.k. we can keep going for a while. You can get the enjoyment of pounding me some more. You have outplayed me and earned that right.:)

Yea, but it will be slow and deliberate. The minor detail of having 0 (zero, nil, nada, none, nichts) operational carriers in theater makes things a bit difficult.

But I will go on the offensive;)

Its good to see that a Gentleman's War has not died out.

Then you shouldn't have sent your carriers to Hawaii.:p

What you should really do is withdraw all of your medium bombers back to the states for some much needed R&R.:D

I think the operational control of your forces is correct for the scale of this OPERATIONAL not tactical game. The micromanagement is fine as it is.
