TWITTER: twitter.com/planefagARCHIVES: http://suptg.thisisnotatrueending“He didn't get it.” Hate raises an eyebrow and slouches a little harder against the wall. “No shit, Sherlock. He wasn't even a fetus when it was filmed.” “But it's a classic!” you protest.“Classic piece of shit.” “You fucking philistine. The camera work in that movie was fantastic. That was some goddamn *art,* you knuckle-dragging simian.” “Skip, it was a *Marine.* Just because it says 'Navy' on our paychecks doesn't mean we're into the whole made-up sadomachoistic gay sex thing, okay?” “Yeah, Marines always top in their gay sadomachoistic sex fantasies.” “Ahem.” You both turn to find Admiral Thomas's secretary glaring you down. “The admiral will see you, now.” Hate raises his hand like a kid in class. “Oh, me, me!” You give him a lidded-eyed Look by way of response. “For Speaker For the Dead!” The secretary tilts her head to study Hate from beneath her eyebrows. “BOTH of you.” Hate lowers his hand, face blanking as he processes this. “It's YOUR fault!” he decides, stabbing an accusatory digit at you. You try to slow your pace subtly, but Hate's onto you, easily concealing his wiry frame behind your bulk. With a sigh, you stride into Admiral Thomas's office standing as tall as you can - you can't see this ending without a good ass-chewing. Even in the most favorable light, you deserve several. Admiral Thomas and Goto are both sitting behind his desk, peering at his computer screen in wonder. They both flick an intense, scrutinizing look at you, then back to the monitor. You and Hate both salute crisply. “Reporting as ordered, sir.”
“Sit your asses down,” Thomas instructs, eyes still riveted on his computer.You and Hate share an uncertain glance, and sit. Admiral Thomas pins you to your chair with a keen look, then begins reading aloud from his monitor. “Presuming him unfamiliar with Western martial arts, I executed a false lunge. Thinking me fully committed to the attack he sidestepped the line of attack, captured my weapon with the off-hand and countered. Blocked this with off-hand to his wrist, headbutted him to gain time and dropped my sword. Took control of his knife arm with the default krav maga counter and used his blade against him, pushing back till we went to ground. At this point he ceased to offer resistance. After checking the immediate area for further threats, I contacted base security and reported the incident.” He falls silent, turning that penetrating look onto you again. You shift eyes to Goto, but he's wearing the same expression. In desperation, you glance sidelong at -- for fucks sake he's the LAST one to be giving you that shit! “... sir?” “I know I asked for an After Action Report,” Thomas says slowly, “but this...”“......... sir?” you repeat at half the volume. “Rear Admiral Settle, last night you *butchered* two experienced killers - with a *sword*,” - he shoots a look at Hate - “and you wrote it up attack for attack like you were describing weapon releases after a surface action.” He leans back in his chair, still studying you. “Doesn't that seem odd to you?” [ ] ... why would it?

"Somewhere off Christmas Island—an anomalous little fillet of land, with a steep crown and a narrow fringe of reefs, rising up through the blue-black swells of the Indian Ocean some two hundred miles south of Java—the seabed abruptly drops to unimaginable depths: twenty, twenty-two, twenty-four thousand feet. The ocean’s very surface sags by several meters along the great Java Trench. And within another two hundred miles or so south of Christmas Island, lost amid submarine canyons, contorted basins, and imbricated sediment, wedged in a deep shelf, or perhaps lying on a frigid abyssal plain, is a slowly disintegrating hulk of blasted metal. It is not likely that Dr. Robert Ballard, or, for that matter, any other specialized, well-funded oceanographer, will ever probe those waters in search of this crumpled wreck. The seas are too dangerous, and the Malay Barrier (as it was once known) to the north is ringed by volcanic islands with a history of geologic violence."

She was, is, a half-forgotten American warship, already elderly in World War II, a veteran of the Atlantic and Pacific oceans and the Mediterranean, Aegean, and Black seas, and finally a member of the U.S. Asiatic Fleet’s Destroyer Squadron 29: USS Edsall (DD-219).

>>43597486Is there something wrong with that?
>>43597338I will be sure to thank Grandpa's ghost for his endless hours over the pacific flying a Catalina.
>>43597311This quote is instructive:>In fact, military experts say, submarines dare attack battle ships only when the crews of the latter are unwary or their gunners are bad marksmen.In WWI torpedoes were still extremely short-ranged and unreliable, which is why the leading U-boat ace of the war scored most of his kills by stopping ships on the surface, letting the crew depart in lifeboats (per old-fashioned Prize Rules dating back to the age of sail) and scuttling the ship with a boarding crew and/or his deck gun. Someone cheeky enough to attempt a submerged torpedo attack on a battleship would almost certainly be obliged to close in on the surface at night unless they found themselves SMACK dab in the enemy's line of travel, since those old boats were pathetically slow underwater and had limited duration even by WWII standards. Worse, their depth control could be a damn iffy thing (that was still a problem that came up in WWII at times, esp. because of battle damage,) and the big CG changes of firing torpedoes from those smaller WWI boats could often threaten to make your boat porpoise - or worse, force you to blow ballast and surface because she decides she's going down now, thank you very much. So needing to motor the fuck away on the surface till you could get lost in the dark and fog was a thing.
>>43597458Have you ever played Austria-Hungary? You kind of have to rely on torps to survive. It sucks so much early game, but come late game it is pretty scary how good they get. Just build massive dd swarms backed by kitikami knockoffs and wait till night.It is a good feeling when the dual monarchy can wreck Britain.

You flick your eyes between Goto and Thomas uncertainly. “Uh... why would it? It's not the first time I've been in combat. Not the first time since I got to Japan, even.” Thomas pans his gaze to Goto. They trade expressions before Thomas hands him a a couple 1000 yen notes. Then Thomas turns his monitor around so you can see it. “Settle - watch this.” He clicks a button, and the paused video onscreen begins playing. For differing dark Yokosuka sidewalks snap into view with some esoteric camera/date information superimposed on one corner. Through one you see two men striding down the sidewalk with steady purpose. In another you see yourself, dress whites looking yellowed in the sickly light of the sodium security lamps as you lurch along, swaying and quite clearly drunk. You and your soon-to-be assailants leave frame and meet in the bottom-right corner, the two lazily unlimbering their weapons as you sway gently towards them.You hear Hate twitch when your cane connects with the first one's solar plexus, your inebriated sway vanishing in a heartbeat as you spring into them. His chair's arms squeak under his hands when he watches you block the second attack, and from the corner of your eye you see his eyes light up when the sword gleams in the sullen light.

The fight is much, much faster than you remember; and much shorter. The security camera doesn't include sound, but you twitch involuntarily when you watch yourself bring the sword's hilt down on the first man's face - the solid, grisly *feel* of cartilage crunching beneath your blow is still with you. Then the rush, the flip, and for a few long heartbeats - the face-off as you and the remaining man size each other up. The camera angle gives you a good look at your own face, half-lit by the street lamp. You remember the calculation, the summation, the decision, the attack - but not the lean, savage set of your mouth. “Scary,” Willie had said. No shit. “The first responding officers, the hospital ER doctor, everyone concurred that you were quite obviously inebriated that night, Admiral,” Thomas says quietly. “Did that have anything to do with your... demeanor?” [ ] Considering how I mulched them like a blender set to ice chop, I'd have to say no, I wasn't 'inebriated' to the point of poor judgment.[ ] My demeanor had everything to do with my drunkenness, not the other way around, sir.[ ] It's all Yakuzas under the landfill at this point, sir, so what is this really about?

>>43598129>Hate gave us the weapon. Not the admiral.Reading comprehension. Nobody's implying that the admiral gave Settle the sword.
>>43598129Yes. That was what was meant to be read from it. He asked why is Hate here. Because he gave an officer a deadly weapon and expected it to end well.
>>43598151My mind is full of fuck.How do naval engineers do this?
Oh you anons know what would be great.The Yaks try this again, but hurt Goto instead somehow or maybe because he hasn't remove Gajin. The Japanese Shipgirls reaction.
[X] It's all Yakuzas under the landfill at this point, sir, so what is this really about?really sad we didn't use the technically it was a surface action line
>>43597773Arizona moved on dess!She decided that a two-timing admiral wasn't worth it dess!
>>43598125Which means that he's got no room to be smug. Much as those Yaks should never have got inside the base in the first place, the fact that they actually got within murdering distance of Settle means that, to the brass, HATE FUCKED UP BIG TIME.

>>43597574An LP of RtW I'm currently following on SA (run and played by Grey Hunter, SA's most prominent grog game player, known for playing both War in the Pacific and War in the East in real time one day at a time and never missing an update, even making a special one for his wedding in the vein of his other updates during WitE, as well as countless other grog games, plus his atrocious spelling mistakes, as well as inadvertently sinking the Royal Navy in any historical game he plays, to the point where he sank most of it in Steam and Iron playing as the Kaiserliche Marine, but couldn't win the game because the developers set the German victory conditions to be so impossible to achieve since they figured that no one would be able to beat the RN).
Give me a good naval game that allows me to pilot a capital ship. I am less inclined to command a fleet.

>>43597574>>43598248His France is currently getting overwhelmed by AH in the mid 20's because he doesn't have the tonnage to break their blockade in the Med, because he recently lost a war to GB and they placed a naval restriction on him, as well as sinking or seizing most of his BBs to the point where he has the smallest fleet of them in the world, and the ones he does have left aren't all that modern. Also, both goons (who are giving input) and Grey are terrible at designing raiders and Battlecruisers (his most modern BCs died to turret explosions when GB's better designed and more modern BBs and BCs opened up during a fleet, convoy harassment/protection, or raid battle of some sort and punched through their weak turret top armor. That class of BCs were even named the So Suez Me class, to celebrate France taking Egypt and Gibraltar from GB in a previous war that they fought, in which he was able to starve out GB to the point of revolution toppling their government.He couldn't break GB's blockade of him in Northern Europe in that previous war starving him out, and a revolution toppled his government as he couldn't sink GB's merchant shipping fast enough to force a surrender with his dwindling number of submarines and raiders that kept getting intercepted. But he still was able to keep three possessions that the army seized on its own during that war: Hong Kong, Malta, and Cyprus.

>>43598373we're watching you, planefag
>>43597754He last told me years ago and never wrote the shit down, but here's what I remember.He and his crew are flying on patrol. They're about half way through when one of the gunners starts shouting about something off to their left. He takes a look and sees an American fighter (Don't ask me which kind, he never said when all this shit happened) trailing smoke and tangling with a nip plane. The American plane goes out of control and the pilot bails and the Nip flies off and they lose sight of him in some cloud cover.They radio back, and ask permission to go get the guy. since they're, you know, right there. Guy on the ground tells them to come back in. There's a nip task force somewhere in their vicinity and they don't want to risk it. Grandpa gives his co pilot a look, they both know its a bullshit excuse, so one of them starts doing his best impression of static (including, and I quote, "Some Engine shenanigans to make it authentic"), they flip off the radio and go in anyways.So they land, fish the guy out of the water and start to take off. At that point, the nip decides to show up again and figures, hey, free kill bakka bakka sempai jihad and goes in to strafe them. He is, fortunately, a god-awful shot and only manages to get the plane a little bit wetter. They manage to get off the ground and the nip decides that's too much of a challenge and fucks off. Again.
>>43598323I wouldn't mind Tenryuu, but I doubt both Arifans and Shoukaku fans would take this well.>>43598375wouldn't mind this either.

>>43598389Thank you anon.I love these war stories.
>>43598208I can use this.
>>43598389>so one of them starts doing his best impression of static (including, and I quote, "Some Engine shenanigans to make it authentic")
>>43598391Haruna is secretly lewd.
>>43598373Wow. Well, I give a toast to you!
>>43598430200% lewd. It's why it's usually underneath her face.
>>43598291Is there a point somewhere in this mess? Not to be insulting, I just confused.
>>43598430Problem is she ain't got a personality
>>43598389Understandably nervous, they head back to base. About half way there, The gunner calls up, the jap is back and is now following them. Presumably, trying to figure out where they're based from. Grandpa calls back, asking how close the guy is and the only answer the gunner will give is "He's too damn close". So they radio base for some backup, and their commander (somewhat pissed) agrees to call for a fighter to chase the jap off. After a nervous ten, fifteenish minutes (I think?) their fighter cover arrives and the nip, sensing a fair fight, fucks off.they get back to base, their commander calls them into his office and starts dressing them down for risking a half a dozen men and the plane on a rescue op when they knew there were enemy fighters in the area. about 5 minutes into the "Angry Pastor Sermon" the guy three or four ranks up the chain pokes his head into the office to say thanks to granddad and his crew, and oh he's put them up for a bronze star k thx bye. Their commander does a 180, praises them for bravery under fire and get the hell out of his office if you please.
>>43598414Yeah the Gentleman in question not only has to get your approval but the Approval of 4 quasi daughters. good luck he will need it.
This will be the true route for Settle.

>>43598485Ushio a cute
>>43598451>>43598389That's pretty much the only story he'd tell about the war, which Kind of sucks because I know there was story behind his silver star but he never told anyone about it. He was also apparently wounded twice during the war, but again he never told those stories either.

>>43598520Kirishima is the Inchou, also youngest technically. Hiei is the sister lover and bad cook. Haruna is the quietest and says she'll be ok/daijoubu a lot. Also the only one who survived the war more or less.
>>43598542ha, no.
>>43598518DDs with DDs are.
>>43598417Pretty much this. >>43598398King Crimson works the same way cutting a scene a frame from a movie reel works. You take a scenario and remove it from the chronological flow. The audience would have no idea that you removed scene as they are caught up in the scenes. But because you stand independent of the audience and therefore the chronology, you can freely influence the effects the chronological flow has on your target (ie the audience).Want to make some look like a dick? Remove that touching scene and he's a dick.KC just does this chronological delete and splice with real world time, not a movie's time.
>>43598533They are just part of a long lineage. Which includes both Katya fags and Trude fags.
>>43598543just like Higgins
>>43598533No group can reach that level of salt like Katya fags did for a time.

You shake your head. “My demeanor had everything to do with my drunkenness, not the other way around, sir.” Thomas squints at you. “So you were homicidally furious *before* you walked out of your office?” “Correct, sir.” Thomas stares at you silently until you buckle with a sigh. “Naka came by my office, discharging her duties as secretary. We got to talking and the incident with Shigure came up.” You squeeze the arms of your chair, suppressing the urge to glance at Goto for support. “She spelled it out straight, sir - sometimes there's not much to be done.” “And that pissed you off so much you deliberately ambushed those two instead of trying to call base security on your cell phone before they reached you.” You open your mouth.You close your mouth. ... you nod. Thomas reclines in his chair, studying you intently. You can see the gears turning in his head as he reads between the lines and processes it into a decision. He wants to pursue this, you can tell... but he, too, surrenders with a sigh.As usual, there are more pressing matters at hand. Thomas sighs and plows on. “We've identified the two men who went after you. They are, indeed, Yakuza. They belong to a rather small group, however; not one of the big old-money ones. They're not registered as big-time by the government - small fry. The kind the cops leave alone as long as they stick to properly traditional methods of thieving and extortion.” Thomas glowers a bit at that. “Because of that the Japanese federal police don't have much of a file on them, but INTERPOL did - seems they took trips all over the pacific rim for some reason or another.”

“Assassinations?” “Possibly. Bit out of that groups league, though. The only thing we've got to go on is your AAR, and that makes it clear they're no slouches.”“We could-”“I'm telling you that for your information, not because I want your god damned opinion on it,” Thomas says. “I believe the CNO himself told you that picking a secretary from amongst your assigned units was as much to provide a bodyguard as it was to lessen your clerical load, correct?” You nod, your mouth to dry to speak. “You seemed to have adopted Arizona as your bodyguard,” Thomas says. “Which makes your decision to dismiss her from your office without you rather curious. Then, you got drunk while talking to Naka - which I can understand, when in Rome and all that, especially when the Roman can feed you the bottle if you refuse - but the part where you decide to gallivant across the fucking base without even calling a car from the motor pool, that, I can't god damned fathom.” The chair-arms squeak dangerously as you crush them under your hands. “Shigure was in a lockup and I wasn't aware there was a price on my head.” Thomas takes in a deep breath and lets it out slow as he glares at you. “I suppose. And you were never formally ordered to pick a bodyguard, and you never formally made Arizona your bodyguard.”You nod.“But that's all different now, isn't it?” You feel your blood run cold.

“Effective immediately, Admiral Settle, the USS Arizona is your designated bodyguard. She is to be with you at all times except for times when she is needed for active operations or she is off-duty, at which time you will call base security and obtain two armed escorts before Arizona is released from duty.” You open and close your mouth for a few seconds like a fish drowning in air. “You have something to say, Admiral?” [ ] No, sir.[ ] Sir, I'd prefer Sammy as my bodyguard.[ ] Sir, I'd prefer Willie as my bodyguard. [ ] Sir, I'd honestly prefer the Marines full-time.

>>43598890>[x] No, sir.But what'll happen if they attack while Settle or Arizona is in the bathroom?
>>43598890Wait, then who does Goto have as a bodyguard? And if he doesn't have one, why the hell doesn't he? And why was Settle singled out for assassination out of all the admirals on base?
[X] No, sir.No second guessing our boss this time I think.
>>43598890>[x] Sir, I'd prefer Northampton as my bodyguard.
>>43598915The lack of fucks to give is a bit of a problem though
>>43598890>[ ] No, sir.It's this or Sammy, but considering the shit Sammy does...
Do you think Ari is waiting in the wings of the room just for this?
>>43598890>[ ] No, sir.We have to pick which hills we're going to die on. As a freshly-frocked RA(LH) talking to a four-star, this is not the battle we should choose to fight.That said:>{ ] Write-in: "Sir, does that include while I'm asleep, or can I actually allow her to go do other things when I've locked myself in my quarters for the night?"
>>43598919Willie didn't let a single member of her crew bite it. She may be a horrible little fuck up but she would die before letting us get hurt.
>>43598890>[ ] Sir, I'd prefer Northampton as my bodyguard.Need more shipbros.
>>43598957what do ships do with their... biological waste?
>>43598947They can always wait outside the door, too.
>>43598890>[ ] Sir, I'd prefer Northampton as my bodyguard.
>>43598890>[ ] No, sir.There are times you can try to finesse your superior officers and there are times to STFU and do what you're told. This is not the former.
>>43598890>[x] No, sir.
>>43598890>>43598915While I ordinarily would toe the line with an order from God... I'd rather avoid any complications from being stuck 24/7 with a woman who is clearly crushing on us.
>>43598890>[ ] No, sir.If a shipslut really wants to punch his ticket, the Marines won't do much to stop her. Willie is a fuckup, Sammy has ADHD; and as much as we're trying to help them, well mostly Willie, neither are suitable right now. Arizona is already de facto in the position so keeping her as bodyguard makes the most sense.
>>43598957You fool, Ari goes into the bathroom with us.
>>43598959Goto's in his own chain of command, and possibly at the top of it on base. I don't think we've ever gotten his rank out of fap angel
>>43598915I feel like Hamp's too...off and adventurous for following-Settle-around duty and bodyguarding
>>43598890>[x] No, sir.Nah, we've been humbled enough.Furthermore, I don't think Arizona would take it well at all if she heard she got fired.
>>43598964Which is perfect for a bodyguard.
>>43598890>[ ] No, sir
>>43598915>>43598945Also yaoiI'm wondering, who would require less paperwork: Willie's accidental damages, or Sammie's excessive force?
>>43598967>or when she's off-dutydudedude pls
And this is what we call, "railroading".
>>43598957>But what'll happen if they attack while Settle or Arizona is in the bathroom?>implying they wouldn't be right outside the stall
>>43598967So Thomas is a four star while we have a single star?
>>43598890Couldn't we get at least two bodyguards and have them work in shifts.
>>43598890>[x] Sir, I'd prefer Northampton as my bodyguard.Having your guard crushing on you I don't think is the best idea.
>>43599012And this is what we call "bait"
>>43599015Yeah. Thomas is in charge of 7th fleet, our boss and as far as we're concerned God.
>>43598890What are the odds of assigning Shigure to us? She don't fight so good.
>>43598988I still think Willie will be an adorable bodyguard.And we get to play the kind daddy and steal a few shipslut's hearts, just like in the cafeteria.
>>43599019It would be preferable definitely.

>>43598959He has Kongou. If he's ever in trouble, he can just blow the DESS whistle, shine the DESS signal at the sky, or even just think back to the last AV Idol video he confiscated from a sailor so that he even STARTS to get the slightest hint of an erection, and he'll have 35,000 tons of fast battleship instantly crashing straight through the wall like the Kool-Aid Man to save him.
>>43598967Thomas is a three-star.
>>43599034>What are the odds of assigning a suicidal foreign shipslut who tried to kill Settle as his body guardI'm pretty sure it's 100% guaranteed to happen
>>43599012
>>43598890>[x] No, sir.I really should have checked twitter sooner
>>43599025What is wrong with it? They guard you better with their life.
>>43598890>>[x] Sir, I'd prefer Northampton as my bodyguard.
>>43599015And keep in mind we don't really have five stars anymore as five stars have tons of authority and presidents like to keep control of.
>>43598823>>43598875I don't into boats. Who is that?
>>43599012kill yourself, wiseman
>>43599058>confusion.png
>mfw when Shokaku wasn't an option >No, sir.
>>43598993Doesn't explain why he wasn't targeted, or why he doesn't have a bodyguard. Sure, Thomas can't order him to get one, but considering his importance and recent events, you'd think someone on his side would bring it up.
>>43599050Why did I laugh.>>43599053Four star is a theater commander is it not?

>>43599076You could have tried writing it in.But she's a nip anyway, it wouldn't work.

>>43598890>>[x] Sir, I'd prefer Northampton as my bodyguard.Hamp a best
>>43599085Thomas runs Seventh Fleet, he isn't a theater commander.Also, the new commander is an aviator? Who let this happen?
>>43599112She.>women in the military
>>43599081Just because we don't know who's watching Goto's back doesn't mean nobody is
>>43599076Probably cause since Shoukaku is under the Japanese navy, he can't order her to be our guard. Also probably why the other options are also US ships only.
>>43599112There are worse ways to fuck up in front of a general.Not very many, though, and most of them involve mishandled nuclear materials.

>>43599014But what if Arizona needs to drain her bilgewater?She can get away with it because boat, but the Navy has rules against that sort of stuff for Settle.
>>43599119At least the explosion from the avgas tanks makes for a decent distraction.
>>43598890[ ] No, sir.
>>43599112She is, and now you understand the looks of those men behind her
>>43599127I thought fleet admirals were all carrier captains, who by default are all aviators?

>>43599058How do you tell the older man is a general?
>>43599181You mean aside from the two stars on his cap and chest?
>>43599169it's what happens when you let waifufaggotry get involved.
>>43599165>I thought fleet admirals were all carrier captains, who by default are all aviators?Thomas is a career fast-attack man.
New kancolle update: Prinz Eugen is now craftable via LSC, but she requires Bismarck Drei.
>>43599151Then she wraps Settle in 120' of silk rope and locks him in a supply closet until she's finished.
>>43599194>everyone voting for Hamp>Waifufaggotry'erewego
>>43599165What? No. And fleet commander, not Fleet Admiral.
>>43599218I'd tap that.
>>43599208>Then she wraps Settle in 120' of silk rope and ties him to herself until she's finished.FIFY
>>43599165It used to be Battleships to be promoted to flag rank you have to command a flagship. Those used to be BB's back in the day. Commanding one was pretty much the tap on the shoulder for Admiralty now days it is Carriers.
>>43599218Yaoi
>>43599161>and now you understand the looks of those men behind herSome people should not be trusted with guns. When I was in basic some private went to clear his rifle as we all routinely do, a bullet came out.He was pointing in at a Drill Sargent's foot.

You can tell by all the pairs of starts plastered on his chest, cap and shoulders.And two: That's Major General Buchanan.And he's watching a dumbfuck medic reloading a gun pointed at herself.You can see that Sergeant trying to hate her out of existance. You can see the Butterbar going "aw shit"And you can most definitely see Major General Buchanan having a moment of profound disbelief of what his eyes are seeing.

>>43598890[ ] No, sir.Arizona will suit you well.
>>43599240Hamp still lost handily, unless I've suddenly fallen retarded and lost the ability to count
>>43599300He didn't do this intentionally.
I really wanted Willie or Ari. Dammit.
>>43599283And screen capped for posterity

>>43599199Yer full of shit.>>43599218Yaoi right?
>>43599323"No, Sir" is the Ari option.
>>43599322I know, it was pretty clearly a jokeAs for the vote, I'd have liked Ari or Willie or Sammy, but it looks like Hamp's winning. It makes good logical sense, but fuck, I'd really prefer the others to get more screen-time, I like them more.
>>43598915>[x] Sir, I'd prefer Northampton as my bodyguard.Write in please.

>>43599323enjoy your new wife.
>>43599321Impressive for a write-in though.
>>43599303Well he's a Major General. They're not exactly famous, but they are kind of important, and a screw up like that in front of one is pretty bad.
>>43598890>[x] No, sir
>>43598890[X] No, sir.
>>43599336Man, they are fucking tinythey look like fucking buttons or something
Haruna is so pretty.Why does no one ever remember her?

I know Arizona will win, but damn Northampton would be fun as fuck.
>>43599368>They are fucking tinyThats. the. fucking. point.
>>43599372She stole our memory.With her bare hands.
>>43599350The medic is a lieutenant.
>>43599303He's only the former commander of US Forces - Iraq.
>>43599372That's Kirishima.
>>43599378Assuming he doesn't leave Settle in the lurch to refill his coffee.
>>43599381In the image specifically, I mean. It's very hard to notice them.
>>43599388Who is also pretty good
>>43599350... you are correct. I messed up there. Well fuck.
>>43599396Oh. Well yea, small shit pic and all that.
>>43599392>Assuming he doesn't leave Settle in the lurch to refill his coffee.That fucking does it. I can't resist. Votes called for "No, sir," but for the rest of the day Northampton is going to look after Settle - at least until Arizona cools off a bit.
>>43599388>>43599372You see anon, Kongou's last name is actually Kongou, and Haruna's full name is "Haruna Kongou", and the same for Kirishima and Hiei.It's like the Mario Brothers dess.No one ever remembers Luigi dess.
>>43599368>>43599396If you know where to look, you can pick'em out immediately. Supposed to be the point, if enemy troops can't see them clearly against the ACU pattern at distance, then they might not think to single him out specifically.The ones on his cover are pretty hard to spot because they're so shadowed though.>>43599384Whoops, didn't notice the butterbar on the medic's helmet, eyes went straight for the railroad tracks on the helmet of the guy on the left
>>43599432what the fuck does dess mean?
>>43599372Because you posted Mic Check instead of Daijobu, for starters
>>43599425
Wow planefag literally railroading for the le epic yaoi meme option because he thinks it's funny instead of the Arizona vote.
>>43599432Kongou! I know how you can get Teitoku to look at you!...A new outfit!
>>43599444Dess means Dess, of course!
>>43599438>>43599384So the medic is actually an officer?That explains it.
>>43599425On a scale of 1-10, how much is Arizona bent on hurting or permanently attaching us to a chair?
>>43599444it means Annoying Verbal Tic.
>>43599444dess = typo of "desu""desu" = "is" or "I am"'Desu' is Kongou's verbal tic, like 'nanodesu' for Inazuma or 'poi' for Yuudachi.
>>43599372I remember her but I can see how she'd be overshadowed by her famous sister.>>43599466Not really just tossing in some Hamp time but it's Ari that's the long term one.
>>43599425>I can't resist.Let the shenanigans begin!!

>>43599467>all that western decadence
>>43599444Desu/です is literally "polite" speech in Eleven.
>>43599467Except Settle just told her to dial it the hell back and try being a supporter and friend to Goto, instead of climbing all over him and begging for his D.
>>43599536CV-6 or CV-8?
>>43599466No anon, you are wrong. This is not "yaoi meme option." This is real life. Hamp is your waifu now.
>>43599506>that feeling when your suggestion may have just cuked Arizona out of her dream assignment.Not sure what you're talking about. Arizona is going to be our bodyguard. Northampton is only going to be around while she cools down.
>>43599551Well... it SAYS CV-6 on her leg/glove.
>>43599536I guess so.
>>43599551Look at her hand
>>43599551It' says CV-6. That's the Big-E
>>43599551CV-6 right there on the glove.
>>43599519Its just a very, very small desu.
>>43599551It literally says right on her glove.
>>43599551I see an EN on the flight deck so I'm guessing CV-6 Enterprise
>>43599551How the hell are your typing this?
>>43599570u cheeki kunt
>>43599121>>43599127He was also introduced way back when as VADM Thomas, so that would make him a 3 star.
>>43599570Oh, naturally.

>>43599588He probably just looked at the leg

>>43599698Wait what.
>>43599277I just noticed her nipples for the first time.That is presumably a normal thickness sweater. Is she lactating or what? Like damn.

>>43599698>Explosions ring out in Dowtown Tokyo, today, when a young lady began firing naval artillery at a Yakuza hideout. The lady in question has not issued a statement.
>>43599717And yet we wonder why Lexington bothered to put that type of sweater on. Or at least I wonder.
>>43599709???
>>43599727I imagine Ari might pull out her full ship form, if only to keelhaul the members of that Yak group more effective and efficiently.
“No, sir,” you say meekly. “Arizona is rather pissed off at me right now, sir.” “And why's that?” “For the exact reasons you just recited.”Thomas snorts, suppressing a grin - it seems he approves of Arizona's reasoning skills. “Fine. I'll have someone shadow you for a day or two, but after that it's Arizona, understand?” You nod. “Nobody better for the job, sir.” Thomas nods solemnly. “I have no doubt of it.” He takes a second to straighten out his desk; squaring up his blotter pad and returning an errant pen to his #1 Dad mug; the physical ritual mirroring the mental compartmentalization any good flag rank commander is skilled at. “Now, the Shigure incident of an hour ago...”
My heart goes out to Arizona. I mean, the girl can't talk! Wait....... THAT GODDAMN SEAWITCH STOLE HER VOICE!!!!!!! I SOLVED THE MYSTERY!!!! (The Little Mermaid)
>>43599774Jesus you waifukeks are annoying as all hell.
>>43599774You're late, planefag made that joke on his ask
>>43599773She really is. To bad she is nuttier than squirrel shit right now.
“You okay?” Goto interjects.“She just knocked the wind out of me,” you affirm. “She rung that Marine's bell pretty hard, but aside from a mild concussion he should be fine.” “You said you assigned guards, on the phone,” Thomas says. “Who?” “Tenryuu was nearby, so I corralled her. She had DesDiv 6 in tow, and between them they've got her pretty well distracted.” “Distraction was your primary concern?” You nod. “The only person she wanted to hurt was herself. I saw that up close and personal - twice.” Thomas nods. “Well...” he sighs. “Why were you there in the first place?” “To get her talking. Keep my mouth shut and see if anything useful came out.” “Did it?” You recall the eldritch electric blaze in her eyes, the chilling cerulean radiance - and shake your head. “No, sir, nothing of note. She just used me as an excuse to get close to the bars so she could try to off herself.” You briefly consider explaining how the shipgirls gain the density and consistency of their old steel hulls when they summon their 'outfit' or use their powers, and dismiss it as not salient to the point - Thomas will have to learn that weirdness on his own, the poor bastard.
>>43599633Has a promotion period even passed since the start of the quest? And wouldn't becoming a full admiral necessitate bumping him out of his current post?
>>43599773>shigure tried to put mentos in diet coke and we're still cleaning up the mess
>>43599773I still think a rotation of shipgirls for bodyguard duty would be best... But probably something to bring up when we're NOT sitting in front of a flag-ranker like a naughty schoolchild in the principal's office.
>>43599800Did he really? God fucking dammit. That would've been a good one.
“Christ,” Thomas says sincerely. “First Shigure, then the Yaks, then Shigure again - I'd have hated to read your horoscope on Monday.” Thomas and Goto go over a few more small details; obligatory paperwork and the like, and then you're dismissed. Hate, who's participation in the conversation mostly consisted of various glances, small gestures and facial expressions as he stood silent witness to your squirming seems rather smug. The bastard. You decide right there and then that you need to fix him good and proper, and file away that note for later. You owe that SOB a present, you do.

And who knows what the wartime staff structure looks like within the quest, especially as we don't know how many of our flag officers are dead or incapacitated.
Every thread.

>>43599834>[ ] Best let sleeping Naka's lie, for now - go see how the destroyer practice is coming along.Let's go watch potentially happy things instead of very sad Nakas
[X] May as well keep the pain train rolling - go visit Naka and see what the hell's up with her. You need her secretarial wit. probably stop by and see Sendai too
>>43599981VALHALLA MOTHERFUCKER DO YOU KNOW OF IT?! Jesus fucking christ it's like you don't fucking realize almost every fucking warrior culture venerates honor, discipline, a good death, and sticking by your brothers no matter fucking what.
>>43600004

>>43599803>“She rung that Marine's bell pretty hard,That marine should get a medal.
>>43599834>[ ] Best let sleeping Naka's lie, for now - go see how the destroyer practice is coming along.Can we not jump right into another hornets nest so soon?
>>43599834>[x] Best let sleeping Naka's lie, for now - go see how the destroyer practice is coming along.Naka needs time to think, and I'd rather speak to her sisters first, get their take on things, before confronting her. And I wanna see the destroyers in action.
>>43600045But you don't win the wars by dieing for your country. You win wars by making the other son-of-a-bitch die for his.
>>43600004needs rocket engines
>>43599834 ] Best let sleeping Naka's lie, for now - go see how the destroyer practice is coming along.We pushed her into resigning just this morning by accident let's see what a little space accomplishes
>>43600045>sticking by your brothers no matter fucking what.This is the most important.
>>43599218Are we seriously going to change body guards without even talking to Arizona first. I'm not one for running after waifus, but that would be a shit-move on professional grounds alone. We already jumped on her case when she tried to knock some sense into us (literally), and no we're switching horses mid-race!? That's basically telling her that we flat or have no confidence in her abilities, when every single fuck up thus far has been damn near 100% our fault. Admiral Thomas knows all of that, and I cannot fathom him allowing the change and risking Arizona's performance suffering as a result of us basically saying we have no faith in her. Indeed, i wouldn't be shocked if he took pretty serious offense at the attempt -- especially since he already made it a direct order. I'm short, I don't see any scenario other than following orders to be remotely realistic from a military administration prospective.
>>43599834>[ ] May as well keep the pain train rolling - go visit Naka and see what the hell's up with her. You need her secretarial wit.She's had a bit of time to boil, and we probably can actually have a conversation with her.

>>43600108Did you uh....not read the most recent update?>“Fine. I'll have someone shadow you for a day or two, but after that it's Arizona, understand?” >You nod. “Nobody better for the job, sir.”
>>43600108Did you...not even read the story post?
>>43600069That is made easier when when you send a flying deathbot to go do it.
>>43600108did you read the posts later fuck wit?
>>43600108Howsabout reading the thread before replying to a 50 minute old post, bud.Arizona's going to remain bodyguard, with Hamp filling in until she cools off.
>>43600108reading comprehension is not one of your strong points is it.
This reminds me of a joke all of you would never understand.
>>43600143He was too busy letting his outrage marinate
>>43600108>Image limitfuck.You illiterate, ho
>>43600108READ NIGGA, READ!
>>43600045warrior culture = somaliayou went to murder highschool dammit, you should be aiming for something better
>>43600108You don't see the problem in having a bodyguard who is emotionally invested in their principal?
NEW THREAD SOON
>>43600108It's a one or two day thing at most. Did you even read the later story post?>[x] Best let sleeping Naka's lie, for now - go see how the destroyer practice is coming along.[X] Oh, and inform Adm. Thomas about how the Shipgirls get more "shiplike" when they summon their outfit. Perhaps it's not as minor a detail as you think it is.
>>43599805Time of war. President can bend the rules as far as Congress lets him/her.
First we kek Ari for one day or two and then we scuttle Naka.This is truly a great day.Also,>offering destroyer training option againAre you trying to tell us something aerofag?
>>43600045That sounds like some clanner shit there.This is a Blakist thread
>>43600228that it's the same day and not much time has passed?possibly also that without the shitty expedition grinding mechanic of the 'game', whobuki and the other irrelevant bathtub toys spend a LOT of time training.
>>43600108Apologies, working off a DoD VPN since I'm in the middle of nowhere that apparently decided to shoot me an hour old version of the page when I refreshed it. That said, you all take waaaay too much enjoyment out of pointing out the obvious...
>>43600252I want Jihad to leave. For real. stupidest piece of shit in that whole fucking setting, bar fucking none, not even disappearing mech or whatever the fuck, is the fucking Jihad.
>>43600220True dat.
>>43600252WORD OF BLAKE GO HOME! ANDURIA FOR ANDURIANS REEEEEEEEEEE
>>43600266According to Thomas Shigure tried to frag herself an hour ago
>>43600272Phantom Mech a shit
>>43600269>That said, you all take waaaay too much enjoyment out of pointing out the obvious...DON'T I FUCKING KNOW IT ANON, WOO.
>>43600272They did as good as can be expected with dealing with the bullshit that was MWDA staying canon.And it doesn't make the Blakists less right either
>>43600272if you took all the stupid stuff out of battletech it would leave you with basically simcity
>>43600300>Phantom Mech a shitphantom mech a best; "we looted some lostech ECM" is so much better than the usual "Phelan Kell is just that magnificent and suave and cool nothing personnel, clanner"
>>43600347one of the good ones I hope?
>>43599473Also, anon, if Arizona tied you to a chair she wouldn't be looking to hurt you.
>>43600371Depends on how good you think rolling 2d6 for everything is.
>>43600382Are you saying that Arizona is experience in both the use of rope AND the arts of the bedchamber?
yep, votes called, writing, etc.
>>43600402She'd just wait for you to fall asleep, then watch you sleep from up close, fascinated and feeling guilty
>>43600402She had her admiral in her stern though.Also, if she ties us to a chair, she has all the time she wants to practice.
>>43600382>forcey fun time with stealth kongou!
>>43600402Her crews certainly were...and now I have an image of faeries giving her the 'talk' in realtime from her CIC. Thanks for that...
>>43600414That's l-lewd, senpai.
>>43600402>RopeShe's literally a boat, so yes>bedchamberRecall when the Blackie incident was linked to the thread at large
>>43600431>Blackie incidentwat
>>43600365Mac a best
>>43600416>Arizona-Kongou comboI'd... be okay with that.
>>43600365yeah, but phantom mech wasn't just some ECM, it was some straight up mystic bullshit that the Kells were inexplicably able to do, along with Yorinaga after he meditated for a while in a zen monastery....
>>43600445The whole>Hooker turning tricks in a machinery space to earn a trip to Hollywoodthing, remember?
>>43600402Until we reach the point where ships dock using magnets, every shipslut is fully equipped with rope and bondage fairies.
>>43600347That's why I read PoptartsNinja's AU on the Something Awful LP forums. He wrote that thing well enough to get himself a contract with BattleCorps.
>>43600461It's the art of giving zero fucks for the enemy sensors to receive.Goto could probably pull that if he ever found an Archer.
>>43600402Fucking duh.
>>43600491still crazy bullshit, but crazy bullshit that falls apart once you think about it is kinda BattleTech's bread and buttercaptcha image looking for bread
>>43600491Yep. The art of being ABSOLUTELY CONVINCED that you're going to die, and just not giving a fuck.
Reminder that feelthyhornet is a faggot and his shitty smut isn't canon
