@mikawagunichi

This would be hilarious if it were not so sad. I forgot the element of the Japanese S. Pacific plan: sent a DD to 56 to block a naval attack. You played well; I made too many bad mistakes. I concede.

Let me know if you want a rematch.

@crockett36 It’s interesting, but it changes the feel of the game quite a bit.

Honestly after playing so much 1942 setup, I don’t see myself playing OOB again. I get that '42 takes away some of the options compared to box, but OOB feels fairly scripted with the J1 90% of the time too. And with fewer units in 1942 setup the game plays faster too. (Big plus!)
