ORIGINAL: Bullwinkle58 Well . . . An ARR is a funny animal as I found out. If you do one you will get advice, good, bad, and indifferent. A lot of it will be true so far as the giver knows, but he doesn't know everything or even much. Just what you post. If you want this to be a war diary and for no one to post, say so and the community will respect that. Readership will probably decline, but that's the trade-off. If you want advice you have to let it be posted. You don't have to take it or even read it. But I've found, even when it's not spot on for my game, it often makes me look at something near it I hadn't thought about. We can get so into the weeds on loading tankers and worrying about mine inventories we forget the forest. To my way of thinking you guys have set up just about the hardest game possible. You're playing x2 against one unified opponent who doesn't have to compromise with himself. You have one very inexperienced player running the side of the map where most of the action is going to be in 1942 when you can lose the game if you're not careful. You're playing a JFB mega-mod which makes the IJN much more powerful than even Scen 2. You're playing the guy who wrote the mod and who knows every nook and cranny of it. He's also played it several times in PBEM. And to top it off you guys have imposed a bunch of HRs, unilaterally so far as I can tell (my former comment about the PPs to shift command hats being "abusive" was based on my thinking J3 had asked for it.) About the only way you could make I harder would be to send John a screenshot of your map every turn. Anyway, some thoughts. I do want advice and everyone to input to this AAR, there have been people reading it that say they have learned something, which is great! I understand what your saying and completely agree with your sentiments, I guess I got my Irish up because we have repeatedly posted that were "newbies" of varying levels, and then all of a sudden 4-5 posts read like we're supposed to be playing @ CanoeRebel levels! (at least how I read it) It's just not gonna happen this week! [:D] We did away with the HR about freely swapping forces w/o PP's... I've sent Larry 3 P-39 groups and a couple of P-40 groups to Cape Town to help stem the tide there... Good thoughts and thanks for the input, maybe it was just me... I just hope everybody keeps reading and "advising" [:'(] It's very boring without input on the game...
