I forgot what I was going to put here so I put down something anyway to make the list longer. One time, in 8th grade, I turned in a report on the United Nations which consisted of a title page, a reworded paragraph from Collier's Encyclopedia and 3 pages of a double-spaced typewritten list of the member states. Technically, I met the requirements of the assignment which called for 5 double-spaced typewritten pages on a Social Science subject of my chosing. The SOB still gave me a bad grade! In the comments he wrote, "Mandrake; Please be careful to avoid plagiarism on future efforts". "Plagiarism"??? F******* A! Bastard! How was I supposed to know he had the same encyclopedia? Later, I learned that plagiarism was OK as long as you used footnotes.

As you know I am in the midst of acedemia right now .. so for a class I have to buy this $300+ textbook. Now for the assignment I do a perfectly good APA quote meeting the grading criteria regarding some emerging disease ... thinking I am making very good use of my investement. It seems that Plagiarism in this form .. even when it's from ones own textbook required of the course is not enough .. one must Plagiarize from Evidenced Based Practice ..-5 points ..

This whole Plagiarism thing is really complex ....

Ok back to the war and using xAK's as barkyard laterns ..

As a former Med School professor, I would suggest the following approach:
1.) In addition to the required textbook, buy the Professor's text (or at least the one where he wrote a chapter or two as a contributor.)
2). Plagiarize lavishly from his personal text, but alter the grammar slightly-combine a few simple sentences with semicolons; split up a few complex sentences into two with periods; change a few verbs, adverbs, and adjectives using your thesaurus and Dorland's Encyclopedia. Alter the order of the sentences and paragraphs slightly-in other words, perform the actions of the competent editor that he refused to utilize when he submitted his contribution!
3). Footnote lavishly the professor's contibutions in the reference section.
4). Bingo: A-plus!

Dobo - the new Port Hedland.

Food's terrible too.

First JJ gets smart and sends in a DD to brush off the PT boats, a second fotilla of which has taken station:

Night Time Surface Combat, near Dobo at 83,115, Range 2,000 Yards

Japanese Ships
DD Tadeyame

Allied Ships
PT-23
PT-24
PT-26
PT-119
PT-123

Then Leander/Detroit arrive. They open fire with radar at 8,000 yds. When the mist clears at 2,000 yds they discover it is fricken Mushashi (or Yamato maybe). Time to beat feet:

Night Time Surface Combat, near Dobo at 83,116, Range 8,000 Yards

Japanese Ships
BB Musashi, Shell hits 2
CA Ashigara, Shell hits 2
DD Shirayuki
DD Hatsuyuki, Shell hits 1
DD Ushio
DD Satsuki
DD Yuzuki

Allied Ships
CL Leander
CL Detroit, Shell hits 1
DD Nicholas
DD Wilson
DD Balch

JJ starts to unload at night with some disruption (there are no dedicated CD guns as this was snap Allied landing in one day). When the sun comes up, the PT boats come back and drive off the landing force again.

JJ attacks both the 503rd and 21st Marine by air and also strafes the PT boats with Zeroes. Allied bombardment mistakenly uses the dreaded 90 elevation setting on the mortars.

Ground combat at Dobo (83,116)

Allied Bombardment attack

Attacking force 2306 troops, 74 guns, 11 vehicles, Assault Value = 122

Defending force 2942 troops, 30 guns, 24 vehicles, Assault Value = 84

Allied ground losses:
5 casualties reported
Squads: 0 destroyed, 1 disabled
Non Combat: 0 destroyed, 0 disabled
Engineers: 0 destroyed, 0 disabled
Guns lost 1 (1 destroyed, 0 disabled)

Assaulting units:

There was also this. Either one of the B-25's or Hudsons from Merauke hit one of the AK's. This will not be enough to stop the landing, of course:

Afternoon Air attack on TF, near Dobo at 83,116

Weather in hex: Light rain

Raid spotted at 10 NM, estimated altitude 12,000 feet.
Estimated time to target is 3 minutes

Allied aircraft
Hudson IIIa x 6
B-25C Mitchell x 3

No Allied losses

Japanese Ships
xAP Miike Maru
xAK Ohio Maru
xAP Montevideo Maru, Bomb hits 1

Japanese ground losses:
9 casualties reported
Squads: 0 destroyed, 1 disabled
Non Combat: 0 destroyed, 0 disabled
Engineers: 0 destroyed, 0 disabled

The LYB's have sent 2nd Raiding Regt and 16th Div, which I do not recall seeing before. Anyone know where these boys came from? After 4 days of para drops, Gen. Jones has not landed. I think he is afraid of flying. He may have to go in by APD. Ditto supply. This kind of attnetion means Dobo will likely not be ready as an airfield by the time of the Darwin attack. We may even need Darwin to serve as a diversion for Dobo.

The bombers at Merauke and Horn will switch over to attack the ground troops on Dobo.

Oz: Quiet day at PH. More bomber raids on the JJ ground troops and airfield at PH..... and at Broome as well. Allied AK's continue unloading without Betty or Nell attacks. Exmouth should be level 3 today and can now take Beauforts.

JJ ground troops at Katherine hit by B-17's from Horn today with good effect. The groudn force is on the march from Daly and should be spotted by the LYB's in a day or so.

Burma, India: Emperor's air boys on steroids. They are attacking everywhere....well...not everywhere.

Glad to see your opponent's are striving for historical accuracy in the game. Committing piecemeal Japanese forces *just shy* of their actual needs, getting them shot up and then underestimating your capabilities again when they reinforce failure.

Wow. What gives? Was the Musashi et. al. in for a bombardment run rather than a surface fight? Otherwise, I'd expect them to have mopped the tatami with you guys.

Not so fast..they might have been Tannanese mercenaries in the employ of M&M.

I was hoping for a little more precision. Did they come from China, the PI, Malaya? Where do they start out in Scenario 2?

It could have been a bombardment mission but the LYB's were spotted by Allied radar and taken under fire via torpedo attack without response till the range closed to 2000 yds on a moonless night. At that point, the wise Allied commander made smoke and increased range. Both forces broke off by apparent mutual consent. I think it was some kind of bushido thing. I have never seen that before (except in PT attacks) a stealth torpedo attack with no gunfire to alert the enemy. I wonder how many duds we had?

In fairness, I dont think the bulk of their force got ashore. I imagine there is some frustration that after 3 days of landing attmepts, their force is not completely ashore yet.

By ra way, pretend I didn't read the manual and can't remember what hotkey to push...is there a defender bonus on Dobo? It's kinda green so it looks all jungly.

In other news, Stalker fired The Mayan for "insubordination"

I really shouldn't laugh but having estrogen as a neurotransmitter must be quite a challenge. I'm not saying testosterone is harmless either...but still.

In fairness, it was 60% The Mayan's fault, 30% Stalker Junior and 10% Stalker Girl. You will note this adds to 100% so I am completley blamess.

I think I probably had $400-500 of clothes and towels destroyed by The Mayan. I will admit some blame for letting it go on too long out of loyalty to the The Mayan....and truth be told...for entertainment value. I did warn her "favor de no tocar la ropa" but she was compelled to tweak "la senora".

I wonder if there are any French maids aroudn here?

I'd say your biggest dud was the TF commander who launched at 8000 yds when he should have had the cojones to wait until he was at 2000 yards. OTOH, he did slap a huge opponent in the face and get away with it.

I bet the Musashi's crew are some peeved that they have to touch up the paint on their shiny new battleship. Come to think of it, since this is Musashi's first appearance her experience level is likely quite low which might explain her lack of success. No such excuse for Ashigara though!

Excellent point about Musashi's exerience level. I take it you are saying it can be Musashi in Dec 42 in scenario 2?

I have never done Scenario 2 but IIRC from Scenario 1, Dec. 1942 is when Musashi puts up the Emperor's portrait and glues on the Chrysanthamum.

Edit - OK I started up Scenario 2 and Musashi does become available 01Dec42. Other recent arrivals you will be interested in:

CVE Chuyo - 27 A/C, 21 kts - Nov. 25
CVL Ryuho - 31 A/C, 26 kts - Nov. 28
Of course he may still be building the aircraft they need ...

You will note this adds to 100% so I am completley blamess.

You obviously haven't read the manual on females.

Gawd, LOL ... Stuff like this is white it took me about 3 weeks and a case of beer to read this AAR.

Keep up the entertainment, gents!

Doesn't matter what the manual says- get involved in an argument between two females and they'll both turn on you and it'll be 100% your fault.

(P.S. for future reference the manual says )
1. She is always right
2. Refer to rule 1.

Note that this manual was written by a woman. When someone suggested she may have been biased she referred to rule 1 and the discussion was closed.

There have been editions which changed the title from "Manual on women" to "Manual on how to survive around women". This second version was written by a man, though he was no expert in the field. He was killed when his wife discovered the book.
