Yeah, anytime you park a carrier in a port, there is a chance that the air units switch to that port's HQ...

I learned my lesson. From now on, when I send a carrier to Japan, the air group offloads on an island in 4th Fleet AO.

Pffftttt! That's twice you screwed me up Robert.

I'll live with the resizing problems. I keep replacements off all the time so it really shouldn't matter unless the unit reduces in size. I had that happen once. A Kate daitai jumped to 30 and I added the planes and pilots because the carrier could handle it. I reloaded it on the carrier and it reduced to 15. The extra 15 planes vanished but the pilots stayed. I now have a size 15 Kate daitai with 30 pilots.

Gluhwein....isn't that what we call mulled wine over here? Spiced wine basically?

Yes *hick*, it is!

Hot red wine with spices, some oranges and lemons in it, sugar, and maybe some likors.

Two questions:

1. Does she know you're a Martian?

2. Do you have kids (and how have Martian genes affected them)?

Ok, there's 3 questions. So sue me.

Edit: Ooo, post 4000.

Depends on the wine, really. Cheap wine + lots of sugar -> headache central. But with a good dry wine, and only a liiiittle bit of sugar, it can be quite delicious.

1. Yes. The huge orbs are difficult to diguise.

2. No. The species are not genetically compatible (but quite personality compatible).
