Wow, all I get is a sub the uses warp speed to attack an alternate reality ship in Andromeda, you get a sub that can carry a whole division and its supplies. [&:]

I always claimed this game should be called "Fantasy Warfare in the Pacific" [:D]

Hi,

I think there are some vehicles/tanks on the sub - there is why the load figure is so high. The moment it is unloaded -I think it is only 20 in terms of AP value. But then, a sub carrying a vehicle.[:D]

Click on the sub and see what it is actually carrying.

...and look at 25 Division to see how much of it is still at Pearl. Note that the "current load" number is minus30,000+ of 42. My guess is that there are just a few GIs and their favorite lieutenant on board with those 66 supply points (three cases of weenies and beans, two dozen cases of beer - hey, it's the Fourth of July weekend, and the boys are headed for some tropical paradise!).

Put my faith in the people
And the people let me down.
So, I turned the other way,
And I carry on anyhow.

Note the tiny minus symbol. This is WITP speak for "the number you entered is bigger than the field can handle - so in binary code it is read as a minus number"

Operation Petty Coat !

Is it not. The movie with the "pink" USN SUB and the Nurses "blocking" the walk ways ?

A complete US Div. in "straps". This is a real "secret weapon".

Sgt. Klinger, your are ordered to land at xyz and amuse any resident Japs to incapacitate them till TF XXX with 20 CV and 40 BB arrives. US intel is sure it works, since the Japs are deprived of Movies, Magazines and Vaudevilles now for 12 months

Cheers !

looks like one of those '50s pranks gone horribly wrong (how many guys can we stuff into a phone booth)

However, it doesn't appear the WHOLE division is on board since there is a /1 after the division designation - so merely a few thousand guys [8|] [X(] [:'(]

Obviously more than that if there's room inside for someone to take a pic.

You need to be very careful where you send that first sub (Grayback). With a load of -30884, it is obviously a black hole that is sucking your military forces into another dimension. Isn't its normal patrol route just south of Bermuda?
