Guys, The battling was a blast. We had 4 sinks in the first battle and 2 in the second. Scoring (for tonage) put it at about a draw for both sides. Thank you to all that came out and had a great time. I hope to do a lot more events like this in the future. Picts will be posted in the IRCWCC site and maybe I can get some here too. Wow! Great battling!
Excellent guys! Well done. My heart saddens to see a Yamato sunk but oh well. Hey looks like it was a great time and the photos are a blast!
Hey Curt it was 3 against 7 and I gave more than I took, Combat Mom ended up unsunk and the Allied lost more ships than the DARK_SIDE, Carlo
Yes but the Boston was a scuttle with a dead stick. I didn’t want you to have the pleasure of sinking me yet again. The Massachusetts unloaded my men and backed into me and rolled me under saving me from the ravishing of the dark side. Dam battery I cycled it 4 X as well go figure. Oh did I mention I only went under once that is a record for me []
.Excellent that's ususally the way my Yamato ends up in fleet battles. The odds against it. Wish I was there...I am planning to come down next year for a Nats. []
I like to call them "water retaining boxes" Nice work on the photos, Monk. Carl was outnumbered like a "gorilla in a phone booth" but still did very well. I have the holes to prove that. It was a great event with lots of fighting. (no where to run) Thanks to everyone for coming. Curt, I hope to see you next year, my last one as an Allied... for now [}]
