The AMCs should have pretended to be a french convoy from Tahiti. [;)]

I know! I remember that from reading Dan's AAR. I also remember you panicking because he posted a picture of a tree and it had 6 pages worth of responses while you were otherwise busy.

That is certainly true. Couldn't understand why soooo many people were commenting on his AAR while we were going back-and-forth. Good psy-ops there.

Bagging PM was certainly nice. LOTS of surrenders. Love that.
Bigred--We laid this match on so quickly, should we talk about House Rules? We haven't and I was thinking about it so thought I should ask. With us doing this AAR with both of us commenting, it seemed a reasonable place to bring it up.

IIRC I recall the comment "no rules".

Concerning house rules on further reflection, my last game with FatR was a "No rules" game. He did throw the kitchen sink at me. I also note this mod is designed by John3rd with alot of extra toys for japan. I am inclined to give this mod a test run.
I see some allied CVL/BC additions. In a no rules game I recognize the Kwantung army is put into Jap play in china, of course the allies have some reactions to this development.
I am inclined to go forward as is.

In Vietnam, a sky raider dropped a broken toilet that was filled with explosives. Does that get included with the kitchen sink?

Probably more sneaky, since most N. Vietnamese solders had never seen a toilet[:D].

This is NOT a one side mod when Japan gets all the goodies. Allies have some nice ones to play with. Just have to look for them as I ensured the Allies got some nice toys too.

Decided to do some research. About three times as many xAK. Part of a plan to slow down allied mid game?

Nope, not the merchies.
Most are in the form of 'at start' ships in greater So Pacific Ocean area. Look and compare the replacement rate of Allied airframes, especially fighter numbers. You should not have to suffer with low number of recon planes in '42 and beyond. Your daily PP has increased and I think we found the sweet spot there.

Those AVG pilots are DOGS! Went right thru the Escort. Not nice.
Been pretty busy with dealing with our COVID situation and LOVELY Governor (NOT!).
I am heading into a procedure today for a skin cancer and then hope--plan--to do some serious Posting since I will be one-armed for a few days.
