I admit I shamelessly stole it from a political campaign but the shoe fit!!! I hope to learn ALOT :]

You're allies?

You're allies?

Thankfully!! It is PDU on though so I am gonna die :]

I agree that Mr. Kane is a good player and formidable.

But, the allies still win if you don't make too many errors.

You cannot lose Karachi.

You cannot lose the West Coast.

Everything else is recoverable.

Get him to build a ton of Tojos. Every Tojo he builds is a Frank/Sam you won't ever see. While Tojo is a good early war plane, it is not a Frank.

Don't allow him to focus his forces after 6/42. Make him react to at least 3 areas at a time always.

Be patient.

Trade CV's with him every chance you get, especially early when IJ players take risks with the KB.

IJ players have a time table in early '42 and you know what it is. Don't contest everything, pick a couple and contest those well.

wargmr-

This going to be explosive.

I'm torn between reading both your and Kane's AARs or just yours. I've heard so much about Kane, I would like to see how her operates. Yet, I'm no JFB and would like be free to comment here about anything and everything.

I think Kane will have his hands full with your strategy and tactics.

Best regards,

Oooof.....

Wow, a bad first day... Good luck, my friend. Don't be afraid to make him fight and use your carriers and other forces. I find it can disrupt the timetable that Pax speaks of. The numbers are on your side.

Only x3 BBs lost at Pearl, that's not too bad. Hopefully you can extract/nurse the others back to SF or LA.

Due to his success on day 1, Mr. Kane decided to stay and try to attack Pearl Harbor on day 2.

Because his forces had been split between an attack on Manila and Pearl Harbor I figured that it could go either way.

My CAP was set at the best maneuver range with most of the planes at 15K

I sortied groups of light and heavy cruisers out of Pearl in case he stayed for day 2.

The first 2 surface attacks encountered a battleship with light cruiser escort.

One of my light cruiser groups then stumbled into a battleship with 2 destroyer escorts.

It is not looking good for scout.

One of the CL groups catches the Kirishima alone as the other destroyers have detached.

Wait, wut?? Go Scout Go!!!

Not exactly a strategic victory but certainly a morale booster!!

NOOOOOOOOO!!!!!

Dey mad...

Those CAs are very close to PH's shipyard, they should survive

BB Kirishima: a pity there were no fires,


what scenario are you playing? any HR?

This strike had to come as a complete disappointment. It looks like maybe a strike of opportunity which is great because the damaged cruisers with no CAP directly NW were ignored.

Of the 80 bombers, about 40 got through the CAP and none of them hit anything.

Slightly modified scenario 2 with almost no HR, standard map with SL.

IF the CA's dont get any more torps they will both survive.
