All I am on my way out the door to the battle, so I only have a couple of minutes. Saturday. Good news. The Hood didn't sink. But the Utah did sink twice. Bad news. I was running the Utah instead of the Hood. So maybe it wasn't the boat after all. Buddy sank at least one time. Mark sank. The axis fleet seemed to dominate the allies. Matt's Hindenburg, and Eric's Margraf, with a little help from Phill's P-cruiser, and the Emile Bertin were more than enough boats to deal with the allies. Bat got the Hawaii out in two battles. That boat did fine. Today, the allies have some more help on the way. A real heavy hitter. The USS Ohio will be in combat for the first time ever. Dustin helped me late into the night with her. It will be great. Well. Unless you are axis. More later. Mikey
We got the Ohio out on the water for some short sea trials early on, and everything worked fine. So she was in all of the battles on Sunday. Unfortunately, Matt was not able to make it out with his Hindenburg, so the two super-battleships didn't get a chance to go at it. But the Ohio did pretty good. She is not actually finished yet. We need to install the water-channel, and do some minor stuff to make the boat easier to turn around between sorties. She was running on the internals out of my old Jean Bart (from my BBS/IRCWCC days), due to the fact that we ran out of time to build up her own systems. So in time we will replace them. But we got her on the water for some photos, and trials, and she went into combat with pretty good results. Mikey
