Mogami PBEM

Hi, I have 3 Allied and 1 Japanese so far. (I would prefer being Japanese in the next 2 to make it an even 3-3)
Olyz, Bosun, R-USMC. (and Leo when ready)

My prepared scenario 15 turn 1 as Japan is non historic but the Allied player can do what ever he wants everywhere except PH.
There are no non historic landings on turn 1. I bomb no ports other then PH on turn 1.

Mogami69bsa@aol.com.

I think I can handle 6 games and keep up. (I once had 19 UV games going together)

He hasn't sent me the first turn yet...If he's intimidated by me, how intimidated is he by you?!?!?...[:D]

[52nd Lowland]

Room for an Allied player ? Im hoping getting beat by as many players as possible makes me play better lol [:D]

[rogueusmc]

I can identify with that...

[Mr.Frag]

If he's intimidated by me, how intimidated is he by you?!?!?...

Mog can not be intimidated ... the closest I probably got was the 4 CV strike on Tokyo against all his training aircraft [;)]

[52nd Lowland]

Ouch....[:)]

[rogueusmc]

I just look at it this way, I have learned alot from getting my ass handed to me by some good players...how much more can I learn from someone like Mogami?

I'm a groundpounder...small unit tactics were my thing...this is a different ballgame...[X(]

[mogami]

Hi ,Rogue As soon as I get your email you'll get turn 1. Mogami69bsa@aol.com just send email and I will send turn. (You were counted in the 6)

[rogueusmc]

What's he that wishes so?
My cousin Westmoreland? No, my fair cousin:
If we are mark'd to die, we are enow
To do our country loss; and if to live,
The fewer men, the greater share of honour.
God's will! I pray thee, wish not one man more.
By Jove, I am not covetous for gold,
Nor care I who doth feed upon my cost;
It yearns me not if men my garments wear;
Such outward things dwell not in my desires:
But if it be a sin to covet honour,
I am the most offending soul alive.
No, faith, my coz, wish not a man from England:
God's peace! I would not lose so great an honour
As one man more, methinks, would share from me
For the best hope I have. O, do not wish one more!
Rather proclaim it, Westmoreland, through my host,
That he which hath no stomach to this fight,
Let him depart; his passport shall be made
And crowns for convoy put into his purse:
We would not die in that man's company
That fears his fellowship to die with us.
This day is called the feast of Crispian:
He that outlives this day, and comes safe home,
Will stand a tip-toe when the day is named,
And rouse him at the name of Crispian.
He that shall live this day, and see old age,
Will yearly on the vigil feast his neighbours,
And say 'To-morrow is Saint Crispian:'
Then will he strip his sleeve and show his scars.
And say 'These wounds I had on Crispin's day.'
Old men forget: yet all shall be forgot,
But he'll remember with advantages
What feats he did that day: then shall our names.
Familiar in his mouth as household words
Harry the king, Bedford and Exeter,
Warwick and Talbot, Salisbury and Gloucester,
Be in their flowing cups freshly remember'd.
This story shall the good man teach his son;
And Crispin Crispian shall ne'er go by,
From this day to the ending of the world,
But we in it shall be remember'd;
We few, we happy few, we band of brothers;
For he to-day that sheds his blood with me
Shall be my brother; be he ne'er so vile,
This day shall gentle his condition:
And gentlemen in England now a-bed
Shall think themselves accursed they were not here,
And hold their manhoods cheap whiles any speaks
That fought with us upon Saint Crispin's day.

Mogami, you just reminded me of the princes of the Bedouins, of whom the Arab poet Mutannabbi once said:

"I am known to the horse troop, the night and the desert's expanse;
Not more to the paper and pen, than to the sword and the lance".

You evoked the vision of the warrior-poets of old, the cultured prince-warriors, even in this company of great armchair generals

(And I do know who you are quoting, as that, along with the Charge of the Light Brigade, are my two favorite poems in English).

[V2]

Hey Kitakami - I got one thing to say:

Oy.

[Central Blue]

Mogami...

what a fearful reckoning the king shall have to make...

I am reminded of the day the Dauphin put his epee through Harry's lip during fight rehearsal. Hotspur, Harry's understudy, was willing to wait for the return of the king, as were we all, but Northumberland.

Our stout-hearted Harry got through the speach pretty well considering all the novocaine that had been shot into his lip.
