Cap Mandrake -> RE: Will the real KB please stand up (5/29/2005 6:23:36 PM)

The Kaga stopped to ask directions to Pearl Harbor. The PT boat raids never found the KB and the LBA at Pearl never summoned the gumption to attack after getting their haircut on Dec 7. 3 or 4 F4F-3's at Midway essentially stopped the tired pilots of the KB from doing any damaged at Midway.

Cap Mandrake -> The other "Slaughter Pen" (5/29/2005 8:17:49 PM)

The Ryujo's Kates, Bettys from Formosa and Davao and a few subs slaughter Allied ships trying to evacuate from the PI. Ships going West across the South China Sea fare no better as they are struck from Saigon.

Yes. They are leading quite a skillful charge in the PI. Perhaps only 1/3 of the ships at Manila will make it out. We had to create an emergency field at Tomini in the Celebes to get fighters squadrons out of the PI.

The Sulawese Sea has been a busy place. We have had a few successes with hit and run surface raids and PT boats and some hits on transports from Dutch Martin bombers and Hudsons. They will be shipping some iron back to be salvaged and some will undoubtedly sink but hasn't shown up on the sips sunk list yet.

Cap Mandrake -> What of His Majesty's ships? (5/30/2005 5:23:23 PM)

The South China Sea has become a dangerous place for Allied shpis

It might be Junyo, or it could be a misidentified CS

Cap Mandrake -> Calling Hong Kong (5/31/2005 5:15:16 PM)

If I were Canadian, I think I might be a bit angry that British commanders sent green Canadian units to Hong Kong in Nov 1941 despite a decision that the island was indefensible.

Wow.... very good AR. Your use of historical maps with game results is impressive.



Cap Mandrake -> RE: Not to worry...at least not yet (6/1/2005 6:05:27 AM)

Thank you sir. I wish the forum would take .bmp files [:)] or videos [:D]

What do you use for your arrows Cap. Mandrake? I really like them!

Love the format, too. "Toastmasters International?" [:D]

Fantastic reports and maps, Cap! Amazing speed the Japanese are moving with too...

Gen.Hoepner -> RE: Fear and Loathing in the Pacific (3x3 MPBEM) (6/10/2005 8:52:29 AM)

Really amazing AAR. Probably the best one i've ever seen. Your pictures and reports are absolutely a piece of art.
Keep it up[;)]



Cap Mandrake -> RE: Fear and Loathing in the Pacific (3x3 MPBEM) (6/10/2005 4:31:52 PM)

Thanks gents. Indeed the Japs are just dismantling the PI and have completely devastated the ships that were based there. They are scooping up oil facilities like Mr Rockefeller. They are clearly good planners. We have had some success at the margins and our LBA is beginning to bite his transports.

That's excellent... Catch 22; one of the more absurd books/films ever made...



madflava13 -> RE: FUBAR (6/13/2005 8:21:25 PM)

Wow, this is really an amazing AAR... I'll be following with interest.



Cap Mandrake -> No mercy for Mersing (6/14/2005 9:04:01 PM)

Lord Admiral Hunter has staged a controlled fighting withdrawal in Malaya. Jap transports at Mersing are just getting hammered by British aircraft from Johore and Singapore and Dutch Martin bombers operating from Palembang.
