I think it means that John is about to lose contact between Korea and the HI ... just when you think things can't get worse ....

We don't know what TF 246 is composed of, what its mission is, where it is or where it's going, and whether it is the South China Sea or the East China Sea, so we are still in the dark about what portends. Let's hope the turn is being run and the results will clear up the mystery ...

Sorry, I was sleepy.

John Let it be know he has delivered 100tons of fuel into Japan. I was monitoring his surface movements last turn and noted 3 IJN BBTFs moving along Japan coast headed east/NE Seemed heading to Akita and Hakodate. This move allowed me to feel safe about my exposed CV TFs with only 4 surface TFs in escort.

The setup for next turn will be to deploy all subs, PTs, and Surface into guarding allied ports in NE Japan. John will also find the forward allied ports with plenty of mines and some Naval air. alot of Naval air has been sent to the fleet because of the airsea war grind this past 5 turns as Allies push for total sea LOC.

Let it be know that I have played game as if it will continue into 1945. John and I did agree to end game 44-12-31. My Hat is off in salute to John.

By GOLLY we bagged an old BB and did a crap ton of damage to other ships.

The remaining Japanese surface forces make their appearance and cause some actual CHAOS. Lost a couple of BBs but

we

are

still

fighting!


BANZAI!!!

My Tanker mission successfully brought in 96,000 Fuel and 125,000 Oil to the Home Islands who were at ZERO! This will temporarily help with the ground and air battle taking place in Northern Honshu. My planes now have enough fuel to actually do some flying and some HI/LI will greatly help keep the enemy fully occupied.

Thank You PAX!

We are currently sharpening millions of bamboo poles to stab our evil enemy with.

This is because bamboo poles was all we had HI/LI for!

That fuel and oil will help get me to my surrender while still FIGHTING!

John,

You're doing an amazing job against such a juggernaut. I tip my cap to you sir!!!!

Why Thank You!

Every ship sunk or Allied plane shot down is sweet revenge for the pure, EVIL AFFRONT of infidels on Dai Nippon's soil.
