My major problem is coping with the new air operations tempo. Also, I miss the US air force's groups vice squadrons.

Wow, I didn't know that (since I never play the Allies). [:D] Lots more units, eh?

CHS has them broken out into squadrons as well. I'd have a hard time getting used to the airgroups of 72 fighters now. [:D]

Yeah, and they're all so small!

On the plus side, I think the Pearl Harbor strike only killed one, maybe two of my battleships, tops. I was getting a little worried by all the alarmist rhetoric going around.
i lost 3

First time around it killed two, plus two more sank due to raging fires. This time only Arizona went down and the rest look pretty safe. I lost USS Detroit though, she was the lynchpin of my South Pacific defensive plan [:(]

Interesting. Do you have a specific area of interest that you specialize in ?

Not really - I'm supposed to teach in general military theory and it's appliance on tactics and operations (using examples from military history).

However, as a side project, I'm also supposed to try out new games to see if we can use them in our lessons, as well as to design scenarios for "The Operational Art of War" which we use as gaming engine during some of our exercises ... [:D]


Hey Grollub, when were you in Kosovo? I was there 2004-2005.

You were there earlier than me then. I was there from july 2006 to february 2007.

You were at MNB(E)? Bondsteel?

Yeah. [:D] My wife just didn't get that many of us wanted more realism.  She figured WitP was realistic enough.  I just couldn't get her to realize that there are many here who know far too much detail about it all. 
Now that's funny! [:D]
