San Fernando: For the second day in a row, not a single sortie goes in. Meanwhile, the Mongol Horde approaches Vigan.

Aparri: Quite effective air to ground attacks over Aparri. Hundreds of sorties from medium and heavy bombers. A portion of Br. 2nd Div is marching in from Laoag. They will have to shock attack across the river unless we send some armor across first.

New Star Trek movie arrived today. I think the Memsahib is saying something about it being loud but I can't hear her.

You should turn the sound down and ask the Memsahib if she wants some curried popcorn. If she says "yes" then giver her the recipe and then turn the sound back up.

Was there a saki drinking contest in that little town north of Takao? If so looks like the allied chaps were the last ones standing.

All transports sunk at sea, yet 89 Ronson's are only disabled??? WTF!!! - either the Kool-aide renders the WJDs to operate them from the sea-floor OR they must be Type 2 Ka-Mi ronsons

EDIT: yes I know those are Ozzies on it but it was the first pic I found...

Hey! You are right! Can you trust that with FOW (the concept, not the person)? Will there always be a unit icon if there is an enemy unit in the hex with your units?

Anyone who read the manual?

Don't know what the manual says about it, but from game experience I have twice experienced what to me were surprise attacks when I could swear that yes I looked and there was no enemy LCU icon. Sounds like wonderful FOW!

Actually, it is a Hip-Hop dance move, i.e. African American. it is just that the old fart reporters don't know anything about hip- hop.
