I accidentally bought WITP instead of WITP:AE. Is there a huge difference between the two?

Yeah the scenarios are different and a lot of other changes. Frankly I think it's a little weird that they even still sell non-AE WITP as an option.

It was about £7 cheaper, I didn't even see AE until my transaction had gone through.
they don't give refunds either

The allies must have really poor pilots going up against the Kiddo Butai? Almost a 3-1 advantage in fighters and they still don't manage to down a plane.

On a similar note, If I ever become fabulously wealthy I'm gonna plow millions of dollars into an absurd comedic anti-epic film about the journey of the Russian Fleet to Tsushima.

Where they mistake British trawlers in the North Sea for Japanese torpedo boats.

Fact is truly stranger than fiction.

I wrote a paper on the battle of the Tsushima straights for a 4th year Russian History class

tl;dr the Russians were totally hosed from the moment they left port. Outclassed in every conceivable fashion by the Japanese in quality of ships, quality of gunnery, quality of command. Add to that a totally insane voyage from the Baltic to Japan, and you have the most one-sided naval encounter since Manilla Bay.

Also because of the incident in the North Sea, the British closed off the quick route to the Russian Fleet, so they had much further to travel.

I can't help but feel that the Japanese success in this war will just lead to a far less favourable post-war situation.

Adding 1000's more casualties on top of Pearl Harbour will just lead to a more humiliated and vengeful USA. On top of that Macarthur is probably sacked or dead, good for the American war effort, bad for Japan.

I fear that Japan might be raised to the ground?

It's pretty amazing that the Tojos can hang with the Thunderbolts like that. Are the pilots at Rabaul experienced or is the plane itself just that good?

They seem to have a big numbers advantage too.

Have wrestled control of the tv off the croctopod for long enough to put tora tora tora on. It has boats and planes, so he is happy for now.

We are also playing blocks.

The Battle of Midway should be next!

They need to replace the Jugs with Spitfires.

Strange to see Jugs escorting Beauforts?

iIve read both of the Pacific-based LP's both were an important part of the journey to work. Thank-you GH.

Now to read a LP where the British navy doesn't get sunk en-masse.
