In a word "YES"

Unfortunately I'm not home or I'd e-mail 1108r9 to you. After the last mess I saved everything to an external HDD and keep it so I have an "idiot-proof" copy.

I remember somebody had the official patch on a side site (like your RA website) but I also remember people talking that it was not accessible anymore... Hopefully I'll be back home by lunchtime tomorrow, so if no one gets it to you by then I'll be glad too...



Cribtop -> RE: CRAP! (8/12/2014 5:56:58 PM)

Yeah, I am keeping a separate install of stock plus r9 in the event of disaster. I play the game off other installs.



John 3rd -> RE: CRAP! (8/13/2014 2:47:23 PM)

Looks like we are now OK. Had to back-up two turns but the new Dec 16th turn ran fine last night.

Very KIND words. THANK YOU SIR!

Here we have four CVs (CarDiv2 and CarDiv5) keeping the Americans AWAY from Christmas Isle. It will be invaded in 2-3 days. The target was a TF carrying a Marine Defense Bn:

John 3rd -> KB--North Central (8/15/2014 6:23:20 AM)

Here we have CarDiv1 smashing an American STF (1 CA, 2 CL, and 4 DD) trying to prevent the Midway landing. They failed and the Atoll was taken on Dec 19th.

Lew and I are getting a turn a day in. We just rolled the New Year and the Japanese Offensive is rolling along. Things have not gone easily though and that is a bit of an issue. As normal, Lew has been hyper aggressive using his warships to punch and punch at the Japanese. This pattern has been somewhat disturbingly effective. The Kaigun has lost BC Kongo and a CA due to a pair of encounters with Force Z where damage was taken and then a dratted Dutch SS finished the job. Quite sad...

The KB has split with elements covering various landings. Here is a big picture map of their operations:

John 3rd -> Kido Butai (8/25/2014 5:31:11 PM)

Since I plan to have a game with Cribtop (once his match with Michael is far enough along) I have been reticent to detail much of the action and ESPECIALLY the planning of this current game.



Cribtop -> RE: Kido Butai (8/25/2014 5:36:27 PM)

It's ok, John. That Cribtop fellow isn't paying any attention. Just let me get a pen and you can detail everything. [8D]



John 3rd -> RE: Kido Butai (8/25/2014 5:44:24 PM)

I see...

[sm=fighting0020.gif][sm=fighting0083.gif][sm=fighting0056.gif]

I lost your Ship Sir. How utterly depressing! Truly hate to lose ANY warships in the opening 3-4 months but losing a BC is downright embarrassing...



Cribtop -> RE: Kido Butai (8/25/2014 6:04:13 PM)

Casualties are expected, John. The Allies have more teeth in these mods too. Still, try not to lose her three sister ships, eh? [:D]



John 3rd -> RE: Kido Butai (8/25/2014 6:22:18 PM)

A lot of people do not get that. I always hear how RA is JFB Dream. There is some truth to that statement but not a lot. Treaty favors the ALLIES with new ship additions and Between the Storms folds RA and Treaty TOGETHER creating--what I think--is a highly competitive, balanced Mod. There is great danger out there and you have certainly been smart to KNOW that in your game versus Michael.



Cribtop -> RE: Kido Butai (8/25/2014 6:26:16 PM)

Indeed. While the IJN is still stronger overall, the ability for the Allies to use new air and naval assets to inflict bloody noses goes up a lot, IMHO. The Japanese player must plan accordingly.



ny59giants -> RE: Kido Butai (8/25/2014 6:46:01 PM)

No plans needed, just Full Speed ahead. [:D]

Got a sudden appt this afternoon with one of my teenagers and their PO. Not good! [:-]

Their Parole Officer??

Probation officer



John 3rd -> RE: Kido Butai (8/26/2014 2:02:14 AM)

We have trun two week sof turns since I had the game issues. Now it has happened again. The game shut down TWICE in the exact same spot of 'Aircraft Supply' phase at the very end of the turn. Asked Lew to change a couple of orders and re-send the turn. He WANTS this to work since CL Marblehead and 3 Four-Pipers intercepted my CVLs and hit them with a single 6" shell each.

Not GOOD!

He just sent the turn back. We'll see if it works.



John 3rd -> Same Turn, Different... (8/26/2014 2:40:00 AM)

Lew changed a couple orders and re-sent the turn. It was TOTALLY different. No CVL ambush and I did not get a chance to sink one of his Dutch SS at Kendari. Turn ran so we're OK but I have real concerns regarding my install presently. This is what DID NOT happen.

Cribtop -> RE: Same Turn, Different... (8/26/2014 3:20:49 AM)

Just a Japanese Admiral's fevered bad dream, eh?



John 3rd -> RE: Same Turn, Different... (9/11/2014 2:43:29 PM)

As stated earlier I have not been Posting on this AAR due to my impending game with Cribtop. Just wanted to note that Lew and I are now at January 26, 1942 and have been getting in 1-2 turns a day.

The warning signs have been occurring over the last couple of weeks but this morning found my install folder completely non-operational. Have to do a full install and create an entirely new folder with all the tweaks and changes added to it. NOT FUN! We going camping Fri-Sat and coming home on Sunday so work cannot begin until then. Will jump on it and get things handled. Guess I cannot complain, I have been running on this computer's AE install for over 4 years...

Just wanted to let you know...
