Carriers continued: here are the in game list of sunk CVx. Very tragic loss of Soryu and one of those hard lessons. After the foolish loss of Hiryu and Zuikaku, Akagi and Soryu made it to Truk. Soryu had high system damage but not so bad floation. 83 Sys, 24 Flt, 24 Major Flt, 25 Eng. I put her into repair mode for about a month and got system down to 73 and reduced Engine to 22. I got antsy and tried to send her up to Saipan and maybe the Home Islands. She got 2 turns out of Truk and the high System damage failed to shore up increasing floation and I lost her. Idiot.... But it drove home just how dangerous System damage is. I probably could have left her in Truk for 6 months if needed to get System down to zero. Anyway... this is the game report. I doubt all those Allied carriers listed are truely sunk. [image]local://upfiles/41045/CCB746D7163E4F6CB90BD0678122CE9F.jpg[/image]

Air Production and R&D IJN Main Fighters are A6M3a and A6M5c Main Bombers are G4M1, G3M2, J4Y1 and B5N2 Some Vals still are in service in both Carrier and land units but the carrier ones are being upgraded as soon as stock pile permits. Jills come on line next month and will start replacing dear old Kate. IJA Main Fighters are Ki-43-IIb and Ki-44-IIa Main Bombers are the Ki-49-IIa Still have plenty of Sallies and Lilies. Once the Ki-48-IIb DB starts up next month, I will start replacing some with the new DB.

Better to widdle them over to the next Jack and maybe expand the sole production plant in the last days of December.

As an aside -- good news. I might have found an opponent who is interested in the 'style' of game I have described. Meanwhile, still many lessons to learn from this one.

DanSez -> RE: Signing Off on the first time series (3/31/2016 5:36:57 AM)
oh, yeah - the infamous WitP-AE Industry Chart. I know I have burned up a lot of fuel fooling around the Solomons. Now I am trying to figure out ways of saving. I have been producing some xAPs, xAKs, TKs and AOs. The CVEs are still accelerated. This month I have started the process of shutting down some of the Merchant Ship Building. I plan on starting to trim the Naval Ship Building as the accelerated carriers of '43 complete. Other than that, organizing the Resource/Oil/Fuel/Supply shuttle services are still a learning and experimenting process. Please recall the HR that Oil and Fuel can only be transported by TKs/AOs and those limited fuel bunkers of some xAKs. [image]local://upfiles/41045/E496A40CBB4A4AF18C4267767646CE84.jpg[/image]

This game is still in progress (Jan 29, 1943) and plan on keeping it going, but have launched a new PBEM game This is a test post for Next AAR (RA 8.1 game vs trascott) which I hope will be more story oriented Looking for alternative font/color. Will be fiddling with this a bit Your face is the first and last vision I care to see. You gave me all that I truly needed, a strong body, a calm mind and the willingness to listen more than talk. I know you blame yourself for the disease that weakened my heart. You would have taken that upon yourself if possible. Your strength sustained and guided me like the sun to a flower. Life is a gift. With that comes an unavoidable truth, every creature born is destined to die. Our eyes fail to see the reality and so the most precious of days are often wasted in stumbles from one dreary thing to another, never knowing when or recognizing the end as it comes. I should have come to see you more often but what I thought was my duty kept me away. I have seen too much. The War has changed all it has not killed. My soul is ground to dust with the things I can not forget. This is the only way I know that the truth can be preserved. Please forgive me for not remaining to take care of you. [Eikichi Suzuki’s last letter to his Mother] Not too bad. I don't like the look of enlarged font size. Choice is mostly between Dark Blue and Brick Red color Your face is the first and last vision I care to see. You gave me all that I truly needed, a strong body, a calm mind and the willingness to listen more than talk. I know you blame yourself for the disease that weakened my heart. You would have taken that upon yourself if possible. Your strength sustained and guided me like the sun to a flower. [Eikichi Suzuki’s last letter to his Mother] Is the italicized font sufficent? Don't want to funk it up too much... got some more writing to do, Any thoughts?

jwolf -> RE: Signing Off on the first time series (5/20/2016 2:14:14 PM)
IMHO the red is a bit easier on the eyes, but I admit I'm not sure and I keep switching back and forth. Good luck with the new game and AAR.
