Fear and Loathing in the Pacific (3x3 MPBEM)

[BrucePowers]

Accept only unconditional surrender![:D][:D]

[rtrapasso]

Matrix is supposedly setting up a Methadone Maintenance Program for those suffering from (or about to suffer from) "Fear and Loathing" withdrawal...

[BrucePowers]

This AAR is interesting. I hope it doesn't end yet. This has been fun to read.

[Cap Mandrake]

Mr. Secretary;


Please review this draft document. Per your request, we asked Mr. Ford, if he wanted any protections in the document. He laughed so hard he nearly wet himslef, declining our offer.

[Feinder]

Yeah, yeah, yeah.  The Japs got stomped. 
 
But what happens to M & M Enterprises?!!!
 
-F-

By the way..its not to late to call off the annoying end to the war [;)]

All we need is some volunteers to stage a coup for the honor of the Emperor...of course you would have quite a bit of dented machinery [:)]

Loose ends, anyone?

What was the mysterious white powder dumped onto the IJN carrier that i'm guessing Yosarrian bombed?

EDIT: Was it one of those biodegradable warheads?[&:] [:'(]

Hold on a minute! The surrender document specifically states that they are surrendering in accordance with the 1945 Potsdam Agreement but it's only 1942 so the surrender won't be effective for a further 3 years.

noticed that, eh?[;)]

Well, we've already had a teleporation device - what's a little time travel? [8D]

[Wellard]

I just think it's a pity that the most readable (and literate) AAR on this forum is coming to end

[Mike Solli]

Who says it's ending? The Japanese agreed to an unconditional surrender in 3 years.[:D]

Do you think someone will pick up the Japanese side - i think all their carriers are gone or "in the shop". Meanwhile, they still haven't gotten the DEI, and it is Mid August 1942.

i'd LOVE to see it continue, but is there someone crazy enough available?

Wait a sec, what's Nik doing? [:'(]

[Mike Solli]

[:D]

Yeah, Nik'll try it. He'll try anything.

[BrucePowers]

I won't try it. I can't even handle the allied side yet and I don't have that many units to move.[:D] Good luck to whoever does. Could we be underestimating the cuurent supreme Japanese commander? I certainly could not play Japan yet.

[Mike Solli]

You're just not crazy enough. Give it a bit more time.[:D]

There is always one in the crowd [;)]

[Moondawggie]

I'm just glad the document didn't ban opening sushi joints and Sapporo beer from US territory.


On the other hand, it should have definitely banned all advertising campaigns staring Joe Izusu, and it should have demanded that Nissan (Datsun) leave the original early-70s 240-Z platform untouched.

I'm going to miss this AAR...

[Mike Solli]

[:D]

So, is the AAR still on?

Here is an idea. Perhaps someone would want to "stage a coup" and take over Empire of Japan with the limited, stated goal of prevented Allied Auto victory by the end of 1942. The game would end New Years Eve 1942 or if autovictory were achieved. That, at least, would be challenging, perhaps even unachievable, for the Allies...plus it would be the mother of all disappointments for Yossarian [8D]

I am pretty sure the Shokaku is still afloat, although I cant remember what happened to her. Anything from the IJN in this battle is either sunk (Akagi confirmed) or a hulk (except one or 2 CVE's)
