So now the new amp is up and all the speakers and sub woofer are finally wired up, it's time for "Never Mind the Bollocks" but I'm told it's too loud. Funny, The Killers couldn't be too loud apparently. Anyway U2 wre on while I was out buying an XBox for the DU (no loss there, missung U2). Now we're on to Live Aid and it's time for Dire Straits, time to crank up the volume...
What, did a Korean container ship run aground or something? Don't y'all have an economic downturn or something?
Awesome victory, Cap [&o], but I see the good ship Hibiki emerged unscathed.
Somehow I bet Cuttlefish has a small smile on his face right about now...
It wasn't just Hibiki that came out fo that well. Nagato really punished several Allied BB's. One may even sink and they all are going to be in the yard for some time.
Radar, more guns and all, the allies had 1/2 the hits [17] that the Japanese got - 33 + 1 torp. Having a couple of knots speed advantage really does give better firing position and hit probability. Sometimes I think the game engine gives a little too much boost to the chances of a slower ship getting hit.
Nagato certainly does not have more guns than 5 BB's combined, even if you throw in the CA. I think all the Allied BB's had radar. Still, it was worth the trade on the Jap carriers. We already have 3 broken BB's en route the West coast. Happy times in the repair yards.
Mandrake and Spiors contribution to the economy. If you keep this up... we should be out of the depression by 43'.
One of the serious problems in planning the fight against American doctrine.... is that the Americans do not read their manuals, nor do they feel any obligation to follow their doctrine
Fort level 5? Is that correct? If you've been hanging around at an enemy base long enough to build up to level 5, you've been there too long (or more precisely- the enemy has been there too long).
If you take the base you'd actually be downgrading, I mean by now the British officers would have the tennis courts complete and be half way through constructing a 9 hole golf course.
Can you show us one switched over to show experience/morale/disruption and such? I'm curious if all that sort-of survived combat has turned them into Universal Soldiers.

[:)]Tell that to the LYB's. It seems they are disinclined to give up.
Thirty eight 25% shares in the golf course have already been sold.

If they serve Hendricks over ice at the turn I'm in for the 39th 25% share, but if its these knuckleheads in the rear mixing the libations behind the clubhouse I suggest you introduce "the pole" at the stag bar and reduce the price on the green fees.

A/B Brown: The Kanga? You prat Smudger, it was the Zulu.
A/B Smith: The Zulu? They'd better bloody not or there'll be trouble, my brother is on the Zulu.
PO Johnson: Listen lads, you're all bloody heroes. We're off to Sydney where there will be lots of moistened bints hanging on your every word. Even you two ugly buggers might get laid.

Oz: Big day in the air over PH yesterday. JJ still putting up very large numbers of Tojos and Zeroes over PH. Perhaps they are flying in from Broome? 3 squadrons of P-40K from Exmouth were ordered to sweep over PH as the P-38 boys are worn out. They go in in dribs and drabs but do manage a favorable exchange. A B-17/B-24 raid over PH does quite a bit of damage to the airfield, including many aircraft destroyed on the ground. A raid over Broome is only moderately successful. Virtually all of the mediums stay home. JJ manages another 2:1 attack at PH but it goes well in our favor.
Ground combat at Port Hedland (57,129)
Japanese Deliberate attack
Attacking force 40491 troops, 453 guns, 212 vehicles, Assault Value = 774
Defending force 18776 troops, 536 guns, 394 vehicles, Assault Value = 361
Burma: JJ has moved air assets to Burma and is ready for our airfield attacks. Looks like we may have to sweep first and concentrate the bombers or use the B-24's for the tough stuff.
