Attu T39

Gents, I have sent reports for GT39. Please issue orders for GT40 asap. Please understand that the game shows little interest now. We play the last turns of the scenario to see what Japanese ships will be able to escape. Let's do it as fast as possible. So, issue orders as fast as you can, and let your order run for several turns, so, if possible, I can run several turns at once. Thanks, and good luck, Francis

Change in scenario
4
Gents, as you know, the next Long Lance ! scenario will be a variation on Savo. The starting point of the initial scenario was that Admiral Mikawa decided to regroup his forces and attack the transports instead of returning to Rabaul. This scenario looked interesting, fun and exciting. Unfortunately, it appeared after second thoughts extremely unbalanced. The Japanese has superior firepower, torpedoes, and night fighting skills, while the US squadron is dispersed and disorganised. In short, it is an almost impossible gamble for the US team, especially for the new players. So, I changed my mind, The scenario no longer starts after the battle of Savo, but hours before. The new version of the game asusmes that the Japanese squadron is detected hours before the fleets meet each other, so the allied forces are strong and organized. This version is less original but more balanced than the previous one. I hope you will enjoy it. Francis

Prochaines parties

Bonjour ¨¤ tous, la partie Daito Shoto (Harpoon V) est termin¨¦e depuis quelques semaines, et celle consacr¨¦e ¨¤ la bataille d'Attu (Seekrieg / Long Lance) va probablement s'achever d'ici quelques tours. Seule la partie Mirmillon (Harpoon V) a le potentiel pour durer quelques mois de plus. Je pr¨¦pare donc la suite. Je ne sais pas si j'aurai le temps pour relancer une partie d'Harpoon dans les prochains mois, mais pr¨¦pare un sc¨¦nario Seekrieg V / Long Lance hypoth¨¦tique bas¨¦ sur la bataille de Savo. Ce sc¨¦nario explore ce qui ce serait pass¨¦ si l'amiral Mikawa n'avait pas fait le choix de rentrer ¨¤ Rabaul, mais au contraire de pousser son avantage et d'attaquer la t¨ºte de pont am¨¦ricaine. J'invite ceux qui sont int¨¦ress¨¦s ¨¤ me contacter, m¨ºme si le jeu ne commencera pas tout de suite (il faut finir le sc¨¦nario actuel et achever les pr¨¦paratifs de la nouvelle partie). J'attire votre attention sur le fait que le sc¨¦nario ne sera pas aussi ambitieux qu'Attu, et qu'il y aura probablement moins de joueurs impliqu¨¦s. Je ne pourrai probablement pas accepter toutes les candidatures. Gents, One Harpoon V game (the Battle of Daito Shoto) has finished a few weeks ago, and a Long Lance (simplified version of Seekrieg V) will end in a few turns. Only the Harpoon game 'Operation Mirmillon' will probably continue in the next months. I am currently working on new games. I don't know yet if I will have enough free time to organize another small Harpoon game, and focus for the moment on the next Long Lance one. It will be a 'what if' scenario inspired by the Battle of Savo Island. The scenario will explore what might have happened if admiral Mikawa did not return to Rabaul but reorganized his forces to attack the US beachhead. Please tell me if you are interested, even if the game will not start soon. I need a few weeks, may be months, to finish the current game and set up the new one. Please also be aware that it will be a smaller game than Attu, with less units, and hence less players to command them. I will probably not be able to accept all people that want to join. Francis
