Hi MarkShot,

Wow! That is, indeed, a great setup on your new Mach V.

I never thought I'd say this, but I am indeed envious. (And that's something I usually reserve for my fraternity brother's girlfriends, being that he usually pulls significantly better looking babes than I.)

I, too, am sold on Falcon NW. This is my first machine from them, and being so well-built, I will never buy anywhere else. I used to build 386's & 486's for a living, and I can tell you from personal inspection that Falcon's machines are not only top-notch parts, they're assembled with an incredible amount of care & attention to detail.

I closely followed Dell's efforts to buy a boutique "Gamer-PC" assembler. They made roughly equal offers to Alienware, Voodoo & Falcon NW. Alienware and Voodoo entered into negotiations, Alienware accepting Dell's offer and selling themselves. From what I heard from friends still in the biz, Falcon NW didn't even return Dell's calls.

Speaks volumes about their committment to the market and their customers.

As US in Coral Sea, I've tried to use the weather. But it's a naked feeling you get in Midway.

Darn. Sank the Zuikaku, Shokaku and Shoho. Plus a bunch of escorts. 

But then Yorktown sank while returning to Brisbane while damaged.  

+400 points but only marginal! I wish the Yorktown's damage control would shape up...

One little tweak that would be quite nice is if there were popups/events showing when important assets are lost. On several occasions I have had carriers limping back to harbour damaged; I have focussed on the main battles and when I next recheck the damaged carriers have silently sunk. Maybe I have just missed one of the existing settings, but it would be a small nice touch. Given the importance of the carriers, they merit a little fanfare.
