The IJN reports a slightly different time, no doubt due to time zone differences...

Made you look [:'(] [:)]

Here is an interesting period photograph of Soerabja (apparently under attack). Hard to imagine one could hide 10 damaged capital ships here...the port facilities were actually along the river. Soerabaja doubtless has a decent anchorage, but it is hard to imagine this as a "level 8" port rivaling Pearl Harbor

I remember reading somewhere that part of the reason the Dutch decided not to go through with "Battleshipplan 1912" (building BBs in German yards pre-WWI) was the cost of expanding the facilities in Soerabaja (dredging the harbor, etc).

PS - "else we shall be undone." Wavell is such a poet. [:D]

Yes, Wavell was a cool guy (for a rich bastard..Earl of Wavell). [:)]

Interesting..Marshall and King act to moderate Presidential directives (again [:)])

A handwritten "OK FDR" and 15,000 people spend a year or two on a pineapple plantation instead of being shipped to the Owens Valley [X(]

Maybe a bit of historical perspective about Presidential authority in wartime is in order. [;)]

This..by the way...might be a record for the destruction of a transport force by surface vessels at night in WITP.

Maryland and Rathburn vs One damaged DD, two PG's and 9 transpots.

I love this AAR.

Thanks for keeping it interesting!

Wow, serious carnage. The enemy seems to move his CVs within range of your LBA all too often, and now seems to be paying the price. Your caption says "carrier battles," but I don't see any Allied carriers involved in the action...

Posted: **Wed Apr 19, 2006 1:18 pm**

A some novice question: This is a game with Nik mod o something???
I say because i'm very surprised for the japanese carrier clumsiness.....
So big damage with dutch, british land based planes??? it's very strange..

BTW, Great AAR!!! Keep on![&o]
