Arrgh! I know it.

Thats what I get for forgetting to turn OFF "React to Enemy" while I'm trying to pull my forces together. Hence my frustration in the AAR.

But hey, it's a newb thing and I have learned. :)

This is a great recreation. You must have spent ages jotting down each happening - or did you alt-tab out to fill in each day?
You've written half the novel when can we expect the next instalment?
As others have writen - it looks like you may have left react on in your Air tfs!

Yes, I did the Alt-Tab thing after each "day" and typed my comments directly on the combat report. I then saved them using a different file name to another location and then resumed the game. I also jotted down my plans for the day (when needed) and added them to the report later. And I still leave a few things out!

I will admit it does take a little time but fortunately I have a couple of slow days at work and this helps to pass the hours. :)

The next installment is being worked on as we speak. I have made it through the first five days of August and I must say the have been filled with...excitement. I can only say "It'll be done when its done." :)

Just a note to inform you guys that Spooky has been kind enough to put my AAR up on his site. The one that I sent him is the same as the one you can download above but is updated with some minor corrections I made (spelling, grammar, things like that).

Other than that it's the same.

Thanks Spooky for posting this on your cool site.
