TF 48 is uploading a huge slug of fuel for somewhere and I've looked at all the hubs and I'm thinking Wake might need some of that
fuel before too long. I'll send it there first to refuel Wake and then on to Truk or whereever it needs to go then.

When we last left TF 56 it was given a hex to set up a patrol in and set on computer control and I was wondering what it would do and
this post solves that question. It moved to the hex it was supposed to and is on patrol there. So I can change it back to human control
any time now.

I've since switched TF 56 to human control, and I had to change the speed to mission from cruise, and I'm commanding a one hex move
more to the middle of the channel and I've just noticed that it seems that TF 56 is counting the one hex move to the destination hex in
the calculation it does for the distance to home port. I don't know why I noticed that just now. Not easily predicted that.

TF 61 is a single sub that's finally arriving at Diego Garcia. I have no idea what's there now or if there's anything there.
When playing as the Allies I used to use that base as a staging base for entering the off-map area and for those off-map
entering the map it's a convienient place to head for and I'm guessing I'll see at least one Allied ship pass through here.
We'll see.

I have spread out some picket ships in the New Hebrides just in case Jim decides on some adventures in that part of the world. I have
lots of backup ready to sail in that direction given the word. I can't be everywhere at once but I can spread some ships out and be ready
to race to any threatened spot quickly.

I've got a lot of subs that were damaged around Pearl Harbour and San Francisco and most of them have made it all the way back to
Kwajalein and are being repaired for emergency things prior to being sailed to Yokahoma for final repairs. I can't fix the major damage
at Kwajalein but I can make them fit for sailing to the repair shipyards in the home islands.

larryfulkerson -> RE: Fulkerson vs Moore 21Feb42 (11/7/2012 10:44:03 AM)

I've found some ships at Zamboanga that show 0 days left to be repaired but that might be because the port has been 95% damaged
and that probably means no repairs are happening. And the game engine won't let me change them back to in-service for some
reason and if I could do that I could eventually move them to a different port to be repaired. Since I can't change the ships I guess I'll
have to repair Zambo's port. I'll look around and see if I can find some engineers ready to move to Zambo real quick.

larryfulkerson -> RE: Fulkerson vs Moore 21Feb42 (11/7/2012 10:49:14 AM)

I've found the same situation at Kuantan: There's 2 separate DD's at Kuantan that have 0 days left to repair and I can't change them to
a different port.......I mean I can't change them back to in-service from stood-down and pierside. I guess the moral of the story is not to
try to repair ships in a port that is damaged.

larryfulkerson -> RE: Fulkerson vs Moore 21Feb42 (11/7/2012 10:52:37 AM)

I guess I need some engineers at Baybay as well for the same situation is there as well. Fortunately, this situation deals with a limited
number of ships.

larryfulkerson -> RE: Fulkerson vs Moore 21Feb42 (11/7/2012 10:55:47 AM)

Here's a ship at Mili that I can't change to in-service and Mili doesn't even have a port. For some reason this ship got disbanded at a
spot where there's no port and now I'll have to build a port there to move the ship.

If you're anything like me you want to skip any consideration to the computer controlled TF's when you're going through the list of TF's
doing your moves. So what you do is go to the list all TF's screen and on the lower left you'll see three toggles computer, computer CS,
and AutoConvoy.......turn those off so that only Human is green and then when you're doing your shift-< or shift -> keys to go to the next
TF all the computer controlled TF's are skipped. Pretty cool I think.

larryfulkerson -> RE: Fulkerson vs Moore 21Feb42 (11/7/2012 12:08:43 PM)

So I've uncovered an Allied ship just north of me headed in my direction and I just happened to have 2 CVE's w/ combat planes just
itching to get some action. I'll let the AO's hang back and I'll push the CVE's further north to get the Allied TF into the aerial unbrella
that my CVE's project. Baring bad weather we should be able to sink that Allied ship. Maybe Jim is using it as bait to get me to expose
my carriers so he can ambush me? Nah.

larryfulkerson -> RE: Fulkerson vs Moore 21Feb42 (11/7/2012 12:30:10 PM)

Two of the TF's parked at Shikuka are loading resources. It looks like, from the max loading levels of the TF's and the level of the actual
resources at Shikuka that these two TF's are going to empty out Shikuka of it's resources. And then there won't be so much of an
emergency to go to Shikuka.

I'm sending the 62nd Infantry Group to Gasmata and thenceforth to Port Moresby to see if they can rid me of the Gasmata problem and
the Port Moresby problem as well. It will take over 10 days to get there though and I still have to pass through the Allied sub blockade
yet. So far I've had enough visibility of the subs to navigate through them so far but they might adopt other tactics and make me have to
change my tactics too to compensate.

larryfulkerson -> RE: Fulkerson vs Moore 21Feb42 (11/7/2012 5:10:39 PM)

In about 10 days Cam Ranh Bay will receive an infusion of about 42K+ supplies, which is a good thing because the level of supplies is
dropping remarkably. Palembang, Miri, and Tarakan, are sucking down supplies at 1K per turn to do repair kinds of things and the
normal re-supply of bases has to continue of course so supplies are flying off the shelves.

larryfulkerson -> RE: Fulkerson vs Moore 21Feb42 (11/7/2012 6:58:34 PM)

Remember how Zamboanga is one of those bases where there's some boats disbanded that have 0 days to repair but I can't change
them to in-service to move them to a different port because of the 95% port damage I'm guessing. Well, the 2nd Pioneer Bn said they
would love to go to Zambo and fix the port. So I should have my port back within a month I guess, and shortly after that maybe I'll have
the service of my ships again. There's a BB in that mix too.

larryfulkerson -> RE: Fulkerson vs Moore 21Feb42 (11/8/2012 4:29:32 AM)

I've got the 1st China Assault Div now embarking on ships. I may have to dock some of those ships to get the whole division loaded. It
was a tight fit too which implies more casualties when we go across the beach with all these people. I waited until I had just enough ships
and thought it's time to go because Jim is doing bombardment attacks already and I'm worried about my people at Gasmata holding out
long enough for the 1st China Division to get there. And after the Gasmata problem is solved I'm thinking of moving the 1st China to
Port Moresby to save those guys too. Hope I'm not feeding troops into a doomed situation. I don't think so yet.

Jim and I have exchanged moves and I have his now ( Friday am 09:10 ) so these combat results are the latest ones:

I got lucky and got a hit on a ship on the NorthWest corner of OZ.
