Ok now that i have the Title Right now and version right lets try this again. One thing I still dont get is how to do the screen shots.

1 Where does it save to ?
2 What does the game name the file ?
3.How do you convert it and add text?


Please some one explain this in detail to me if you can via e-mail txcorsair@yahoo.com,
Just want this to be more enjoyable for everyone to be able to see it as Miller and I see it some.

We will both be doing AARs seperately on this full game. Here is the set up to start.

Allied Sub Doc ON

Japan Sub Doc OFF

Non Historical

Dec 7th Suprise ON

Well thats the setup Guys I have been thinking how to write this so bear with me as it may change as I go along with it. I would like to wish Miller41 good luck and this will be fun to try I am looking forward to it. I would like to ask for some feedback from the readers as it will be fun to read what you guys think and have to say.

Air losses were very light. Landings all went well. The capture of Wake is a good first step. Sent 1 CVE and 1 CVL to near Tarakan as a hunting group that bagged the CL USS Marblehead. Sent 24 Zeros on long range CAP for the Mersing landings of which 5 provided Cap and did shoot down 11 Allied planes for the loss of 2 Zeros.

Well thought I would give a quick overveiw here after 3 days Hope this shot covers major area of the war. As you can see I have tried to get as close as possible to major objectives to cut off amt reinforcement.

How did you capture HK so fast?
I thought the CHS mod bmped up the forts to like 60?[X(]

First off , THANKS for starting another CHS AAR .. it looks amazing . Also thanks for not posting entire combat reports , the style is nice as it is [:)]


Well it looks like a great start for the empire of japan , sinking marbelead is a nice bonus. That ship is a real killer except vs CA or bigger.

Out of curiosity why is allied subs doctrine on ? dosent that nerf allied subs till 43 ?

Anyway .. keep up the good work .. nice read and i love screenies of the 'new' CHS stuff , planes ships etc.. hint [;)]

2 reasons I did allied sub on.


1. I know if I knew I was firing dud torps I would be real cautious too, I mean it isnt like when they hit and dont go off they dont make noise alerting as to subs presence. [:D]

2. THE ALLIES WILL WIN ANYWAYS [:@]


So I guess this could be asked as well If a US sub fires a torpedo that doesnt exploded does anyone hear it LOL

NO not in the new 1.0 it is back to 10 and I also sent Engineers and another Division or 2 and a HA batallion. Ran 2 shock attacks back to back. Dec7th attack knocked fort level to 7

I will do a weekly overview of the AAR so here is the first. notice the ship losses in which I can only hope to continue most are transport types I will print that screen the next day or so, showing ships sunk mainly any warships.

Things have slowed down as i consolidate some and rest up units for next push. Here is a list of Sunken Ships so far as promised.

Ok now maybe [:D]

Gearing up and trying to send in base force to Kenderi but look who is on her way HMS Prince of Wales however a Betty did put a torpedo into her this turn stay tuned in boys and girls this may get interesting.[X(]

Well it got interesting ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, heard from the Capitan of the Prince of Wales,,,,,,,,,," AIR COVER WE DONT NEED NO STINKING AIR COVER" Boys and Girls dont try this at home you will only get hurt .......................[:-][:-][:-][:-][:-]

12-14-41


Well the Price of Wales up and vanished !!!! [X(] I had gathered over 75 Nells to finish her off at range of 4-5 max and I never saw her [:@]. Other areas see little action but alas this will soon change . I am not going to rush things as I am way Ahead of the Historical Timeline so far anyway. I hope you are enjoying this AAR as my oponent will be posting here too as he does not have time to post his own. PS should someone want an Allied Opponent for CHS drop me a line.

12-15-41

NOT MUCH ACTION TODAY STILL TRYING TO CRACK RABAUL WHICH I AM TAKING MUCH MORE TIME THAN I WANTED. I AM TRYING TO GRAB AIRBASES AND THEN BACK FILL BY TAKING THE CUT OFF SMALLER BASES. MORE CHS SPECIFIC SHOTS WILL BE COMING SOON.

Well finally got Rabaul. Now moving in the SRA with the taking of Tarakan.
