A bit of an update. I have have surrendered to Jeff as I no longer have time to play in the weekdays. Its a shame because I still enjoy the game but right now its not working for me. Maria got a new job running a lab on the other side of town. The commute means she is usually home very late in the evenings and I have to do all the ground work at home. When all that is sorted and the kids are sleeping its basically already time for me to go to bed. Doing the turn means less sleep and I was so tired and exhausted when I was doing the turn I was not enjoying it. It became a chore rather than something fun and relaxing.


You made the right decision of course. But do check in with us once a month or so (on a weekend) to say hello!

I am taking over for Jocke, I hope to do a good job. I do not know how much I will be able to post in this AAR, but we will see.

I have the game file and a new installation for this game.

Good decision Jocke!

Only reason I can fit in a game with two kids and a wife is because we work from home.

It would be impossible to do it otherwise, and now they have both started playing football on Sundays......

I am not sure if I will continue using this thread or start a new one. Any ideas on which I should choose?

A quick assessment is probable in order.
I have never played a PDU off game, never gave it a thought, so I will be
having to learn a lot in the coming days.

Anything I say here should not be construed as a criticism of Jocks play. We all play differently and have
different areas we stress. One case in point, I insure that I protect my C2 Cargo ships and make sure I convert
them to C2 Lassen AE's before March 1943. If you wait until after that you can not convert them. I do like having
lots AE's with a cargo space of 5400 available. And they are the ones that can do underway replenishment in 1945.
Unfortunately Jocke did not, so I will have a lot less that I would prefer.

Jocke did a good job of positioning supply and fuel to the front, but I need to see if I can increase the forward
stockpiles. The Allies can go through a huge amount of supply and fuel in the last 18 months of the war. It appears
that Jocke did not lose an excessive number of xAKs and his AO and TK loses were very reasonable. So the ground
work for Allied victory is in place.

I'd suggest starting a new AAR. Recently, that seems to be what most people do when they pick up new one. Just be sure to link the old one in your first post.

That lack of AEs would hurt. I love those things. Call it a challenge, though, and adjust your gameplay.

Good luck.

Cheers,
CC

I am looking forward to this AAR to continue... I think you can as well as continue here if the AAR title is fitting to you...

Jock, I don't like seeing you go and hope you'll be back sooner rather than later. In the meantime, keep that family of yours running well. Best of luck and best wishes.

Good luck with continuing the game, looking forward in what direction you take it.
