Did this make it to the final product?

Post by RUPD3658 »

About a year ago there was a post allowing players from the forum to have leaders in WPO named for them. Did this make the final cut? If I am the Captain of the CA New Jersey I may have to buy the game tonight!

hahaha, way to go Tanker! I must have been asleep last Dec. to mis that whole post otherwise I would have wanted to be captain of a AK ship. [:'(]
It doesn't make any sense, Admiral. Were we better than the Japanese or just luckier?

Is there now any difference in intel between japanese and allied SIGINT? (Read: were the intel routines revisited, so that the allies did not crack the japanese codes?)

Nyet. The Allied SIGINT advantage is a thing of the past (or should that be thing of the future?). Both sides get "Radio Transmissions detected at..." and that's it.

Well then, you'd obviously find yourself at an advantage... Lucky me, my last name is only a little bit Germannic.[8D]

Here's mine. I asked Tanker to put it in the game, so I thought I might as well be the driver, too.
