Kongo went on a  rampage and destroyed about 6 American ships before withdrawing back to Peleilu for repairs  :P (Including 4 cruisers)

Btw for those who like the game but don't want to shell out - Theres an old version free with the same name. It's only major differences are far simpler industry mechanics, worse graphics (dos) and probably less types of plane. I prefered it for a long time, but eventually got into WiTP and moved onto that  8)

Also

Carriers at War 2Carrier Strike: a similar engine but with more focus on carrier micromanagement. I've always loved this one(being an avid reader of carrier battles). It was also remade, but unlike WiTP it didn't improve anything except graphics, which no hardcore ww2 sim player cares about anyway.

I'll probably download that later. In the meantime I'm going to be playing MTW2 for the next several weeks.

Ok I'll begin taking names for the next game - next is the whole war as........ the Allies! But I will do it on a A-Historic scenario where Japan is stronger.

Because of the massive list it would give, Just pick something descriptive. Example: A good carrier, a battleship, a british battleship.
If you know specifics like BC Repulse, just say :D

Also Pilots will be given a branch, just choose naval or army. Then you'll be transfered to wherever to join an air group.

Choices are:

Ship captain
Admiral
Ground force commander
Pilot


*Also, last game was on 'Hard' difficulty. This will be on normal but with a stronger Japan.

I call captain of the British Battleship Prince of Wales :D (In reality it was sunk shorty after the beginning of the war :( along with BC Repulse)

If you have a preference I will list a bunch that we begin with. However this time i'll make everyone a captain unassigned, and get posted at either a preference, or somewhere I pick :D

USS Iowa

You should play Erikki, and both run an LP in your respective threads. But no peaking!

Enterprise!

Plus, you should just give everyone a pilot in the same group and see who lasts the longest :)
