well, guess thats me then... I will take Side I. (which I presume will be the left hand side of the map).
Now we just have to see what kind of map we get...
Do you want to post fleets or shall we wait on the map and Aquarius to post em?

DaJudge doesn't want me to post the maps, so I asked ND to do it.
He says it might be a couple of days.

I didn't say I didn't want him to do it, I just asked if it was a good idea since he was actually in the tournament also. In other words, he shouldn't do his OWN game's map, I don't mind him doing any others though.

Just as long as we get this tourney rolling again I honestly dont care who is doing the maps! Its only a Friendly anyway... And as Raevski and Aquarius INHERITED respon. for it and kept it going for G.admiral R I honestly have no complaints about their conduct or their determination to see the Tourney through to the end.
Hell, I have trouble finding time to play more then one full turn at a time, I dont know how they find time to be mods, run this sucker and find time to have a life, pay bills, work etc....
 anyway, TO WAR !!!!!!!!!

Yamato- 67
Musashi- 63
Akitsuki x2- 20
I-26 x2- 32
I-19 x1- 13
Kamikaze- 3
198
My admiral may as well participate also, he is bored and has nothing better to do than to make my ships cost a little less. lol Hopefully he'll die this game and maybe I can buy a new one next round, if I make it through of course. 
Should be fun, 2 big monsters against 2 big monsters, some subs and some destroyers. Good stuff. My Kamikaze will be the deciding factor in this game! Or not.

(phweeeeeeeew.... huge sigh of relief)
I just knew you were going to go BB heavy...
I was worried that you might go sub swarming with yamato as a fall-back, Guess the german heavy pair now have the chance to earn their spurs (this will be the first time I have had the opp. to work a pair of bismarcks) . I had thought about a gaster/uboat swarm with sharn/Gnies as fall-backs and all my 109's... guess german intel was spot on this time

It's pretty easy to see where this game will go- the subs will likely make the difference. A lucky vital hit would also swing it.

The map will be a key factor, shoels and islands that channel movement or mask guns will make life interesting.
I was sure you would take some zero's for DD strafing... thus the 109's... but now it seems that a last gaster might have been a better call.

I saw no need for Zero's since you had no bombers. My fleet just doesn't add up real well. Only 4 ships.
The map might make a big difference if the range 5 comes into play for Tirpitz but 13 dice to get 10 hits is difficult. We'll see. Where is the map anyway??

I think we might have to wait a while longer...
ND seems a bit occupied at the moment. 
I had thought that 1st turn zero's strafing gasters would have been on the cards... Im now stuck with two fighters that will stay grounded! ho-hum, at least they are in no danger of being shot down, unless I go for the hari-kari option and strafe Musashi!

Ok, the map is up, this should be quick and bloody. You chose the left side which means I get the right side.
You're setting up first and I am unable to do maps at work so for now, let's just write the moves down and keep track that way, planes should not be a factor at all unless you try and strafe with the 109's which would be a possibility.
You had first set up so post that, I'll post mine and here is my initiative roll-
Rolls: (2d6)  +2
Rolls: (2d6)  +2 reroll
Good luck and have fun
