Tale of the Sheep! - JocMeister (A) vs. Lowpe (J)

[ny59giants]

Headaches - mine come from sinuses. Mine hate the change in weather patterns. They can also come from "Caffeine Withdrawal." There is no diagnosis for Caffeine Addiction/Abuse, but this one I know from experience. In my younger days I would make the 1100 mile drive from NE Georgia to Vermont in one shot. Just had very large and very strong coffee to get me there. Once I came down, the area around a cap or hat would still would be very painful and tingle. Try drinking more water for the next few days to see if it helps. Don't forget that caffeine in any form dehydrates you. Like a hangover, the best way to minimize it is drink more water.

Takes off counselor's hat now. [:D]

Ouff, thanks for the advice. I think the headaches might be unrelated to the quitting. Had a horrible, horrible night with some of the worst headaches I have ever had.

Tried the usual paracetamol and didn´t help. Gave up at 3 in the morning and tried some diclofenac instead. Luckily it worked and I managed 2 hours of sleep.

Feel like a trainwreck today. Had to stay home from work. [:(]

Also forgot to send the turn to Jeff last night so it has been sitting as a draft all night...bah.

I hope they are enough. Going by SIGINT it should be! [:)]

Some (possibly) very interesting SIGINT over the last couple of days.

5th Guards Division is located at Port Blair(46,58).
13th Air Flotilla is located at Tulagi(114,137).
1/301st Ind.Infantry Battalion is loaded on a Japanese xAK moving to Kodiak.
2/6th Ind.Hvy.Art. Battalion is loaded on xAK Keihuku Maru moving to Pearl Harbor.
2/2nd Army is loaded on a Akasi Cargo class xAK moving to Pearl Harbor.
2nd Hvy.Artillery Regiment is loaded on xAK Wakatu Maru moving to Pearl Harbor.

This tells me a couple of things (if we assume the SIGINT isn´t fake). First of all I finally found the 5th Guards ID. I have had no Intel on it since it arrived. Good intel!

Secondly the PH SIGINT is very, very interesting. Why is he moving heavy artillery and 2nd Army to PH? Only one answer to that...[:)]

An Air flotilla at Tulagi tells me he intend to fight for it and that I will be encountering Nells/Betties. I usually bypass the Solomons though.

I might be dense. What is that answer?

Canada and/or WC. [:)] Of course this could all be fake and he is using PH to disguise the true destination. If that is the case he is probably moving them to SOPAC and Noumea.

Do you have any assets that can snoop Pearl Harbor? That might clarify more.

Only 2 subs! Getting some info from SIGINT though. Looks like at least parts of the 4th ID is still there.

It's a long trip to Pearl, for sure.

Almost page two! [X(] Sorry for the lack of updates lately. Jeff has been travelling which means few turns have been done.

Currently struggling a bit with motivation both for the game and AAR. Always do when you hit a slow period. Still a couple of weeks off until I can do something "fun" which resparks the interest. I´ll try and get an update up during the weekend.

Started playing WoT recently. Fun but hard! [X(]

Beware letting your morale and situation affect your post count. If that happens, Lowpe will be able to tell that something's up when you begin posting regularly again. So, fight the morale and post regularly, even if it's only to say: "Day 31. No cigs. I am the man!"

[ny59giants]

Go through your large LCUs and ensure they are prepping for the correct base along with all your Army HQs. Ensure a Command HQ is paired with an Army or Corp HQ to increase chance of getting that big adjusted AV when you get to that base.

Haha, good thinking. 3 weeks on Friday actually. Feeling really good about myself. [:)]

Already done that a couple of weeks ago. Changed from defensive prepp to offensive targets. Outside India nothing big is planned for 42. Only smaller invasions with perhaps one exception depending on what Jeff does.

[JocMeister]

PS. To keep the post coming.

Anyone playing WoT? Didn´t realize just how huge it is. 150k people playing right now on the EU servers alone. [X(]

[Canoerebel]

What is WoT?

[JocMeister]

What is WoT?

World of Tanks. Its a "free" arcade WW2 tank game. Its hugely popular in Europe and Russia with a smaller following in Asia and North America. 150 MILLION registered users world wide. [X(]

[ny59giants]

I pulled out my dusty CD from around 2001 for "Bulge '44" by HPS Sims a few weeks ago. Its my favorite ground battle of the war since both sides gets some offense and defense to play. I still love the looks and function of those German Panthers. It would have been nice to have the American Pershings available in sufficient numbers for Overlord and the campaign across France. How would they have faired against the Pantehrs and Tigers??

[JocMeister]

Had to look up Bulge 44. Looks pretty decent for such an old game. Like a really, really early version of War in the East! [:)]
