Bumpy- Be-Dee-Bump....

[Raverdave]

Yeah I'm waiting for the boy blunder to send me the next move.[:@]

[Luskan]

Turn sent - same as the last 6 or 7 really.  Basically Raver's got a little surface combat group making runs into the lower indonesian chain swinging at my transport groups - he's sunk some PCs and 1 AP and a MSW - damaged a few more AKs but more nuisance than real trouble. 
 
The troulbe is that my bloody nells and betties aren't plastering those ABDA units with torpedoes.  Looking into it.
 
In other news I landed on the top end of Sumatra and took Bankha (IIRC) without struggle.  Lots of starving allied troops in the SRA atm.

If you look very closely, you'll find something every Jap player is happy to see

As Sneer lives up to his name ... What amounts of fuel and supplies did the IJA bag there?

[Raverdave]

There was a good amount of fuel left at Manila, but zero supplies.

[Capt. Harlock]

Why the sudden quiet? We want to see what Luskan is going to do about Raver's insufferable presumption -- capturing Japanese bases before August 1942!

[Raverdave]

Luskan is busy in the middle of his company being taken over, so I am getting only two turns a week from him (slack bugger).

[Raverdave]

I got a turn from Luskan this weekend [&o].  But stuff all happened [:(]  No action to report at all and the worse thing is that Luskan reports that he will be away all week.[:@]

[Raverdave]

Where the hell has Luskan gone?????

O.K., that latest emoticon is pushing the borders of obscene. But you have a point -- we want to see more action!

[AU Tiger_MatrixForum]
