I sent 'Ace' stuff on Friday, but didn't hear anything back over weekend. Maybe he was overwhelmed!

And?

I got PM from AcePylut yesterday. He reported having to go across country for week due to father-in-law being diagnosed with cancer. He reported probably having to go through more trips in the future. So the need for an opponent may be closed as I've caught the "new game itch."

While waiting on this, I've started playing Japanese AI in Ian's "Long Road to Tokyo." I think Andy Mac channeled his inner John 3rd for how aggressive the invasions have been. [:D] Starting this has me thinking about starting new PBEM.

I spoke with John 3rd yesterday morning while driving from family to family (I do assessments of high risk youth with significant behavioral issues for intensive in home family therapy). He had started thinking about BTS with March 1, 1942 start date using Big B's mod. I asked about the latest on BTS and Lite. Those should be done. However, I inquired about a version of Lite for me that would have the 6 Niitaka Class CAs from BTS that now have the 8" guns removed and get a few less 12" guns to become a sort of "pocket BB." I want a BTS Lite version without Yamato BBs, but with my pocket BBs.

So, I'm think about two new PBEMs. One will be me as Japan playing BTS Lite with the pocket BBs. The other will be me playing Allies with whomever my Japanese opponent getting to choose from BTS, Lite, or Lite with the pocket BBs.

That's where my thinking is right now....
