Nope..it is possible that one RN carrier might sink..we haven't seen the next turn.

Palembang, All of Java, Myitkinia, Akyab and Koepang in Allied control.

Gili Gili in Allied control...the rest of New Guinea is Jap.

I have no idea what the Jap fuel situation is. It is not good for the Empire.

The cease fire is a ruse! It's only a flesh wound!

That was a good anekdote from "Forgotten Fleet". A kamikaze had crashed of of the Brit flattops. The captain of the carrier signalled "Little Yellow Bastard" to the flag. The flag replied "Are you referring to me?".

Status: offline 		As I stepped out into the bright sunlight.....from bunker 1471, Canton....Southern China........the reality of the situation hits home.....

The war is lost and I have been summoned to Tokyo to sign the surrender document....Oh the shame...the shame....

I order all my staff to commit suicide and those 873 deaths ease some of the pain of the shame.......

I polish off some of the last of the Vintage Krug and the very last of the cavier and order my chef to kill himself as well....no blinis.....what kind of war is this......

I turn to address my faithfull troops.....who are waving at me with clenched fists.....a sign of solidarity I assume......the poor wretches are all starving....the supply situation has been poor for months......though it must be said my uniform is a touch tighter than when the war began.......my stirring speech moves the troops to tears, and to show their affection they set light to a veriety of surprisingly accurate effigies of my self.......

I decide to board the destoyer than is to bear me to the Home Islands.......I expected a battleship....what kind of war is this?

AsI board, I notice then 36 new pilots of the Tojo Sqdrn that arrived today.........16 year olds, only flown once before, I order them to commit suicide....their parents would approve.......but I do notice that all the new aircraft are being packed into crates marked M&M enterprises......hmmmm..........

Status: offline 		Congratulations to the Allies ......my Behind is still sore, and will be for some time after the spanking we were on the recieving end of........


We, the Japanese....started playing Marc, Mark, and Tom over a year ago....

Then it was Marc, Tom and Rob.......

Then Marc and Rob.......

and the level of play was always top class.....and it was a distinct pleasure to have been involved......if the allies wanted to start again tommorow I, for one would sign up......

All discusion of Fear and Loathing will now be unpacked here....the Jap. site is closed....so I will post a full look at China/ Burma, my command....never fight a land war in Asia.....and why the war was lost, here on the allied site....

Marc.......The surrender document was recieved, but my ludite computer skills mean I have no understanding of how to sign them....so if you can add my name to the Doc.
