Onto the most honourable Bowsling of Germany.

The IJN has a lot of ships on patrol near Singapore, too. Right odd, isn't it, old chap?

 

[Elephantium]

CH, did you take Hong Kong?

 

[aksully]

CH, did you take Hong Kong?

My question too E!!! Geez if Hong Kong isn't captured than that is HUGE for the Allies and especially for China!!

 

[aksully]

The President is conferring with his Cabinet, War & State Departments and Allied Leaders.........

You should see what is next to Singapore after this turn.

That was an error on my part, but those ships would have moved into that area this turn, so there was no problem, just made sure they didn't move outside the area they could be in from this turn. There was in the term "invasion fleets" which I didn't know were re-named convoys, so I moved some ships that were with the transports and convoys.

CH, did you take Hong Kong?

yes I did. I killed the two units in the city as you could clearly see.

 

[eric_A]

"BB Enterprise" should probably be BB Prince of Wales I'm thinking.

As for Hong Kong taking out an infantry divison is a minor miracle.

I didn't see that at first Eric...that is Huge! Never seen it!

Thanks for confirming. I didn't memorize how many defenders there were...

I got confused as to the name of the unit. For some reason when I went back the biq, my mind must have been on a stack of US ships when I wrote that.

Yeah I had a bit of bad luck, but on others i did better than expected, so it all equals out. The nature turn was what annoyed me most. One malaria unit not killing a 1/1 militia unit and then one killing a 3/3 militia unit, which happened to be mine.

What is going to happen if Bowsling doesn't play in time, since I don't have his password? It looks like he is currently busy with exams, IIRC.

 

[Bowsling]

I am here and playing the turn right now.

Maybe you've run out of ammo and your next turn will be shorter!!!

 

[classical_hero]

What is this so called Yankee "humour"?

Spoiler :

Yeah, the first few turns are when the Axis have the advantage and need to taken to the full advantage before America can change the outcome of the war. SSo our first turns are going to be rather long.

 

[aksully]

Certainly the Japanese, German, & Russian Dec turns are the toughest and longest to plan and play. You guys did a good job with it!

 

[classical_hero]

What I did was set up a PBEM all for myself so I could get Japan into the December turn and then while in there I did so many different scenarios there to see what would be the best to do, but I found that the best effort just happened in my real turn, so basically it was almost a wasted effort, but it help me to see what is best to do for that turn.

 

[Elephantium]

CH, I do the same thing.

 

[aksully]

great minds think alike.......
