WarHunter this looks fun [:)] I like the layout and will be reading this with interest. Just one thing [puts mr picky hat on] what happened to Edouard Daladier? [;)]

warspite1, MWiF is a long game, and this AAR makes it longer still. As a tool for creating an alternate WWII history, i take full responsibility for omitting famous personalities of that era. Plus i get lazy and distracted reading stuff i never knew before.

You see, I wanted to post pictures of the allied leaders at parties. You know how hard it is to find those? So i settled on what you see.

btw, Mr picky hat makes you look so fierce. Thanks for reading. [:)]

Look at all those luvverrlly ships in the Construction and Repair Pools!! - Especially the Blue ones (and I'm not even biased). I demand you get them in the game immediately [;)]

About those ships... yeah, ummm... After a bit of tea and milk, Hmmm that was tasty.

What were we talking about? [>:]

Ships... yeah, which one? i'll get on it right away. (reaches for a cookie).
"BTW who are the three geezers sitting in the brown sports car?"

2 of the 3 are known to be, (L) Keith Park and (R)Arthur Coningham in a MG roadster at Malta, Jun 1943. Both are in the front seat.

Arthur Coningham, was the commanding officer of the Western Desert Air Force.

"In Apr 1940, Air Vice Marshal Park was appointed the commanding officer of No. 11 Group RAF, thus placing him in charge of defending the air above London and southeast England."

I've never seen a picture of Coningham before - but would never have recognised Park from that photo. The piccy's really add something to your AAR [:)]
