The One Flipper...

"Frodo, you must take The One Flipper to Mt. Doom; it is the only place it can be unmade"...

Mount Niitaka, please [;)]

Or Mount Suribachi perhaps if you´re playing the Allies.

Nothing happened? [&:]

Are you two in like Jan of 42. Fighting should be intense as the hordes of Penguins overwhelm the early Allied defences.

Must agree, if you're going to write this AAR like this Onime I'm going to snooze mode...

But I'm serious. The only things that actually happened was that one of my RN subs sank a MSW, he bombed the stuffing out of the same places he's been bombing for a week now and he's arty bombarded 2 cities in China, Clark, Rabaul and Malacca. Theres really nothing to write.
 
I think the phirst phase of his advance has been complated. He will be moving on to consolidating the rest of the DEI after that landing at Jambi (troops are marching south), and maybe take a swing at PM. Other than that, only india and Northern Australia are left.
 
If this were a closed AAR I could give you the details about my losses and perhaps even wax prophetic about what I think he'll do next, but I cant, as it would be silly to make this a closed one as Faber has no time to update his own AAR and I dont want it to be onesided.

I think Faber is getting ready to hit be good in the near future. He's got way too many troops that are not doing anything atm. The good news is that I spotted the KB (after losing it after the BB incident) ENE of Midway. I think he's retiring West and might hit Midway on the way out.

Hitting Midway is a possibility [:'(] but on the other hand... with SeeBees [:)] kinda waste if he's not planning anything more... Unknown are paths of the Penguin[;)]

Manila has fallen to the southern pincer of my PI invasion force..........The rest of Onime's forces are pinned down at Clark....after a couple of days of RnR in the brothels of Manila......the two pincers will come together and crush all the U.S. forces........

My Malaya Forces are moving south after Onime pulled back toward Singers......

Rangoon has fallen....and my Burma invasion force is turning North........

The long slow burn of China combat is coming together as my forces gather..........

The fury of the first three weeks are over........now the war begins in earnest............

Beware the flipper........

I'm sure that he's too smart for that. The fact that he hasnt made any moves towards the Solomons yet is a mit worrying. Either he knows my OOB too well or....

Palembang I know about. Hopefully you'll have a harder time digesting Soerabaja when the time comes.

You may also want to try booby trapped sardinas. It is banned by the South Pole Convention, but you did not sign that convention either [:D]

I would, but he'd just take his frustrations out on my POWs. Thread knows he's gonna have a lot of those soon.

Nah, they'll probably just surrender. No Order 270 in this man's army.

Today I suffered the first big blow to my evil plans.........2/3rds of my Buma invasion force on the way to Mandalay took a shortcut through the jungle....so instead of 6 days travel........they'll be lost for 30 days........this was the kind of game mech. problem that caused Tom Hunter to swear off this game.......and while I'm not swearing off.....I am swearing........


On the plus side Mutsu has arrived in the HI and is under repair as we speak........

Onime's Hundsons out of PM are getting hits every turn.......when Rabaul falls they will no longer be safe..........
