Western Civilization in Grave Danger - AU Tiger (A) vs. Skyros (J)

[Lokasenna]

Noooooooooooooooooooooooo, the Hibiki!!

He's got to defend Oosthaven better than that if it's his beachhead for a PBang campaign. Wow. That's what his BBs are for. You have next to no naval strike worth a darn right now. He's got to risk some damage to get 5000 men ashore and not dead or swimming.

Since my last round of CA strikes he has been doing a good job of protecting his transports with BB's and CA's, which made me happy because he is burning lots of fuel running them around, but I saw an opening at Oosthaven and took the opportunity to hit them. Maybe he got lazy, or complacent, I don't know, but I seriously doubt he will repeat that mistake again soon. Skyros does a good job of reacting to my moves so far.

[:-] Thats the problem, as the Japanese early in the war you should be reacting to his moves, instead of the reverse. True you can't cover every invasion with the amount of escort that would stop any attempted strike but you did a fine job finding where he was weak and exploiting it. I have 2 PBEMs going at the same time in DEC 41, as both sides and it is interesting to see the challenges confronting both sides at the same time.

Those are some pretty impressive SCTF results.

I'm a little confused here (like tell us something new [:'(]) but do you think AU Tiger is playing the Japanese? Either way, it appears you are advising him to surrender the initiative. Care to rephrase?

any update?

Alright, apparently I have single handedly ended this AAR. I regret having posted on it and will cease posting on it. AU Tiger, please resume. If anyone would like to explain to me what a dumb f*** I am, please do so on my current AAR, not here. I would appreciate receiving views on my improprieties in this matter but not on Tiger's dime. Blast away on my AAR.

AU Tyger, Tyger burning bright
In the forests of the night

What's happening?
