As you may, or not, know Zeta 16 while losing many bases in his withdraw across the pacific has inflicted tremendous losses... this new 1.5 game allows me my revenge.. thus the title.

Situation.. My naval forces are whole, it is MAy 1942. I am repossitioning troops and supplies. Japs justtook Gili/Lunga and are advancing in Solomans
no other news.. few air raids and other moves .. comparitivly quite

Ah, nice to see another scenario #13 AAR.

It is amazingthe differences.. after having played an entire war.. at the begginning of my last game, I never looked at leaders except tfor the big hq;s.. and I really paidso little attention to engeniers untill I learned better.. this is like a completely different game..
it is 05 42 and no losses for either side although I have one criticle sub.. maybe it sunk already

I wonder if Z will go on a huge land grab early now.. Midway?.. it is not his style, but who knows. India is pretty safe as it is so late into the vulnerable time soon many new strong units start appearing, ground and air...

The first carrier air battle takes place near Gili Gili, some Zero chew up a pethetic attempt to getto the ships by lba from PM

two raids on Lae, no results to speak of..

I recieved anouther GREAT [:-]Brit carrier.. maybe I should launch araid??? ok sorry
I actually do like them after mid 43, tough and I stack my best fighters on them for added cap when needed... though in the Indian ocean I can only wonder how they would fair in a real fight !
Nice to see some good divisions comming out of the west coast too..

we rap up another super ,snore, busy month in snore in the pacific... I mean war in the pacific... June ariveds with fresh hopes for counter puncing opertunities...
pm seem out of immediate danger, and My troops are building up for operation wake up..

damn, you two are getting turns done fast..

amazing when you just kick turns back and forth, I was slightly in error, last week of May


So far Z has reduced and is ready to take Yenan,sp?.. in northern China
Taken Gili-gili
moved troops and air into lea taken Lunga and started the great Z bomb the poor Chinese troops training program with his air

game going slow. I am going to try a few new things this. I really do not know yet, but I hope to hold out a little longer in SRA this time.

ok now we are into june.. I am amazed at how different things are, after playing a game through... I am looking much more closely at the details.. like all those neat leadership ratings

As we close in on teh end ofthe first week of June 42, I have little to do but a few raids .. air and mange my back yard fleets...
Z has to date note given me an indication of where he will strike.. INDIA? I really have not seen his carriers since he landed troops in G-G..

game is so much more boring with out the units you get latter in the game.

do you mean it is more exciting with better equipement? I still am flying p39's and b 17[:@] but not for long[:D]

I think theat after Z attacks and I know where his carriers are, or later in the year when sufficeit troops supplies and carriers are mobilzedI will take some key areas.. last game it was "take it all" not sure that was the best choice.. maybe I shouldhave bypassed some like Rabual???

I guess both ways but better for you [&o]

So it is more exciting? I am really interested as this is new 1.5 game.. what and when the first serious battles will happen and what changes we make using the 1.5 changes in oob and rules/effects

mid june 42 carriers spotted off the coast of NG.. could this be the main assualt? raiders?

carriers vanished again.. he really has that carrier vanishing act thing down... AAUURRGH![:@]
