12/18/41 One of my hunter-killer ships encountered an enemy TF off Rabaul. Unfortunately she evaded the TF rather than sinking it as per her instructions. I was about to fire the captain later that day but she was sunk by Kates before I was able to.

RE: Gorn to be wild. vontiger(J) vs geofflambert(A) rematch
12/21/41 There's a TF with 4 CAs parked at Rabaul and what appears to be a landing force about to arrive. Two days back Mutsu and Yamashiro bombarded Rabaul. The last time we played vontiger took Wake early and I distracted him by retaking it shortly after. His CVs (or some of them) were tied up in the area because of that. He retook Wake of course but I had a counter invasion TF waiting outside his search plane radius to retake it again! His CVs kept hanging around so I eventually sent my invasion forces back to Pearl.
Meanwhile he didn't send an invasion TF to Rabaul until I'd already reinforced it considerably. When he saw that he took Kavieng instead and set it up as a bomber base to support his subsequent invasion and capture of Rabaul, but this did not occur until late March.
I didn't think that trick would work again, and it didn't. He captured Kavieng much earlier and is blocking (destroying) any ships I send that way. He is going to be much more difficult this time around.[:(]

12/28/41 A Japanese sub took a crack at the Enterprise near SF and missed. I've received a report of 3 CV's and 1 CVE SE of Wake heading east. These are aside from the light carriers supporting the invasion of Wake.

Hey you guys......can I ask questions in this AAR? Okay, I realize that I just asked a question, I mean can I ask another one? Ooops I just asked another one. You know what I mean.
I see you're both posting in one AAR......How's that working out OPSEC-wise. I mean are you delaying your post or something? Or does it just not matter when there are breeches of OPSEC? I'm asking because Jim Moore and I are both posting in his AAR and I've already run into an OPSEC situation and had to disguise my forces in the picture.

There is indeed a gret deal of intellegnce here .. for one I highly suspect that the Allies are forming an alliance with the Martians .. . forget Navajo .. "ACK ..ACK ACK .. ACK ACK ACK ..." Soon ray guns at Lunga ...
Of course, the IJ will counter with Japaneese Opera ...

The only case where we've delayed posting for OPSEC reasons so far is the one preceding your query. You can see the date of the screen shot is Dec 21 and I posted it after the Dec 28 turn.
And yes ask away, we may have to delay the answers though. Glad to see you here.
