Hey Thanks friends...

[Macclan5]

Just a brief note..

Not intended to be a bragging note! [8D]

Almost exactly 1 year to the date .... I achieved status as a 1 star Admiral if that is a term.

Santa brought me the game.

Read manual ! Played Guadalcanal Scenario ! Started GC verses the AI! Made many mistakes !

1 Decisive Victory as SAC-Pacific August 12 1944 / Stormed Tokyo July 7 1945.

Above all:

This is an amazing game that anyone with even a passing interest in history and WW2 should play.

Its value is far beyond "pennies per turn" or "wargamers with OCD only". [:D]

It is in itself almost a hobby.

This community has been: 1) Helpful, 2) Supportive, 3) Patient, 4) Informative about the game 5) Informative in many areas of history and 6) Humorous

Thank you for the welcome and support.

I look forward to growing with the game and community.

Glad to have you join us. You, in turn have done your part to help newcomers and stoke the humour.

But when you get to be my age you will have to be content with shrinking with the game and community.

Been playing since WPO and STILL learning something new every day....GP

Live long and prosper.

Cheers on the decisive victory!

Like previous posters, I echo your sentiments on WitP:AE and this forum, but know that you have been a part of why it is such a great game community. What forum couldn't benefit from some Canadiens, Eh? [:D]

A one star Admiral, depending of course on the national armed forces, is a Commodore[;)].

[geofflambert]

A Commodore is like a Stevedore, difference being he cleans out commodes. Term disappeared because of the difficulty distinguishing abbreviations between it and Commander. I hate that RA upper and lower half stuff, though. Somebody needs to fix that.

Gilbert and Sullivan suggest we have modern major admirals, and below them brigantine admirals.

[geofflambert]

When a covey of admirals forms, they stand around telling each other how much they admire the other's uniforms.

Oh? Didn't Gilbert and Sullivan reveal that they spent their time "polishing knobs" to get promoted?

Welcome aborad my Northern friend.
And for the rest of you American's. Noooo, North Dakota is NOT a Canadian province. Just barely though. South Manitoba.[;)]

I never let anyone see me polishing my knob. That must be why I never get promoted. [:(]
