... I was thinking about increasing the pace a bit, at least for 2-3 weeks. That would mean 2 updates per week, but ONLY if the players are up to it. What say you?

Well I was about to comment that I only got one opertunity to have my say in that last emergency update. It moved very fast. I don't always get the opertunity every day to come on the forums, or twice of an evening.

I'm fine with a quicker turn around, but if it moves too fast I may have to resign. I did make note a good few weeks ago that I might be slower in posting for the forseeable future. Every 4-5 days should be good enough to have a couple of says on matters.

Yes, but that was a rather special case, not representative of a typical update. I didn't feel that there was much more to be said.

Sounds reasonable. I think that Surt should be able to keep up, too.

I've finished playing and don't know how to describe this session. It will cover 3 months and it's encouraging in some ways and disappointing and worrying in other ways. I think that we are well past the point where everything was going smoothly - 1943-1945 will be the toughest years, I think, but that was to be expected. Plenty of action both in Asia and in Europe. Nothing decisive yet, though.
 
Am I missing something? We have sunk a number of Russian vessels, a battlehip among them. When did that happen?
 
The situation in Europe is not so good. Is there any way Japan could help the European Axis?

Don't you remember the Japanese-Soviet Border War? This was also the first time we noticed that we had problems with submarines.

Only indirectly. If the British and the Americans have to build many ships, that means less IC for troops and aircraft.
 
I hope China is finished soon. An attack on the Reds would be interesting to see.

Would it be interesting if the Soviets attacked while we were woefully unprepared? Not that I'm suggesting anything ;). *evil smile*

I wonder what the Russians were up to... I've counted 21 sunken transport fleets on their part...
I think that they lost the bulk of their navy. This may have happened when the Axis captured Sevastopol.
 
Ouch, losing the Yamato hurts. I hate losing ships, but losing a capital ship is worse since they're so difficult to replace.
 
Very intense, and very amusing. Keep up the good work!
Thanks :).

I meant that I was (and still am) wondering what the Russian built those many transports for in the first place.
Maybe they had grand plans in regard to the UK or Japan =>?

He he, I agree, but I think that we've done extremely well so far, because most of the time we've managed to avoid losing capital ships, even if they were badly mauled. I'm quite proud of the this, because escorting ships back to ports safely requires some micromanagement and good timing. IJN Yamato is the only modern capital ship that we've lost so far.
 
One Battleship lost, seven battleships, a carrier and an escort carrier sunk. We could've been off much, much worse.

Including what was sunk earlier I think we got half the original UK fleet, the question is how much have they build until now, historical I think they finished 3 BB and 3? CV during the war and had 2-3 CV and BB in the wharfs when the war ended. (all from memory so might be totally wrong :))
