And an echo to the thanks. Lucky me, I had not input any orders when I found that last error.

I would like to ask/comment above 1 and 2 above.

1. The 3,241 12Kn xAKs( Std-Cs ) convert to TKs in June 1942.
2. The 3,241 14Kn xAKs( Ansyu-Cs ) convert to PBs starting 7 December, 1941.

As far as I can tell, there are no PGs defined for Japan.

So when can we bleacher dwellers expect this game to begin? This is gonna be a classic, and waiting just sucks!

I know. I am starting a game using this mod and I want to peek over Johns shoulder and take notes, but he isn't saying much. [8D]

Things are happening it is just that I've had two 11+ hour days in a row at work and my enthusiasm for re-doing Turn One has not been very exciting...

Plan to work on the Turn tonight with enough detail shared to make ALLLLLLLL people happy...

The CenPac Offensive begins with an Assault Brigade hitting Wake and then moves on to Midway.

Am not buying the Guards Brigade (my normal 1st buyout) but plan to stockpile points and buy the 14th ID out of Manchuria.

I have a FAR better command of land combat now so I THINK it should be OK. Never try to take all of China because I think that is gamey so we'll push until a decent defensive line is established.

CR just wrote that he won't be getting on the turn until tomorrow so that will provide time for me to do some specific planning entries later tonight.

Just got a turn with Lew done and need to do one from Ark so will do that and Post later tonight.

This is gonna be good. [&o]
I do wonder "which" CR you're going to be playing. Knowing him, he'll supprise us with a different defensive strategy than he's utilized before.

Fair warning though, us Southeners stick together. [;)]
