If y'all are able to behave yourselves here is a political science quiz:
Which current US presidential candidate actually made a contract with M&M Enterprises, Political Consulting Division and purchased half of that candidates Facebook followers? [:)]

Another interesting thing. The two games are about a month apart with a very similar focus of attack in Oz and the South Pacific.
I think there is a cross-pollination of strategies going on. JJ bombards Brisbane in WWII(e) and only loses one ship so Mandrake-san does same thing in WWII(d). They lose Hayashio, we lose
Oshio. [:)]
Mandrake-san try Rord Howe Gambit in WWII(d) and it-ah not rearry work but the Japs pull it off in WWII(e).
This brings up a quite interesting meta-game possibility. Suppose you purposely come up with a really crappy plan in one war to try to get the enemy in the OTHER war to copy it. [:D]

The trick is to make it believable so you will have to use e-mail to inflate successes and minimize losses in the crappy plan!
On the preceding question -- Marco Rubio? Sounds like something a politician with a niche market position might do to broaden his base.

Hai! Your attack on SE Australia in the other war will be an inspiration to many. [&o]

Nope, not Rubio as far as I know. Think bigger thighs.

NONSENSE! The carrier sortie into the Bismarck Sea easily eclipses that.

Chickenboy is very, very warm. I'm going to turn over all the cards and call this one solved.

. Suppose you purposely come up with a really crappy plan in one war to try to get the enemy in the OTHER war to copy it. [:D]D
Two problems.
1) You've given away the meta game plan about plans
2) They can just as easily copy your plans that work. Of course if you do find a plan that works you can then prepare to counter it in the other war. Fortunately this shouldnt be a problem very often[;)]

I'm going to tell Mandrake-san about that! Then who will be laughing, eh?

You know, I might be using two IP numbers to post as you as part of a mind-boggling multi-year meta-game.
In fact, you might not be real. How does it feel to be a cover story, eh?

I'm really enjoying that the two wars are close in timeline and focus. This AAR gives me a yardstick to check our performance against in the other game. Plus it means I've got somewhere to get a regular dose of Mandrake San and Sprior humor.
