What were the FT scenarios played at this years  GZG ECC?  Like to read
the 
AAR's of the FT gaming since unable to	attend.

Well, I ran "Time Line" on Friday night
 
A return game from GZG ECC like 3 years ago.
 
A combined task force of NAC/FSE forces went back in time to prevent a
war  
with the IJN/ESU
in which the original Time Line was the IJN/NAC vs ESU/FSE at which NAC
and 
 FSE had horrible losses of ships and territory and both wanted to
prevent 
the  war from starting. Building a Time Gate in a secure location and 
sending to  capital ships through to try adn prevent the first attack of
the IJN 
on FSE	forces from happening.
 
Now, the ships are there and with the information knowing what IJN ships
 
will be there, they set up a counter strike.
 
FSE Ships
    Advance Battleships and destroyer escort.
NAC Ships
    Advance Superdreadnought with destroyer escort
    CVL and escort craft
 
vs
 
 
IJN Ships

    DN and escort craft
    CVL and escort craft
 
Using Fog of War to start the game, players did not know the what ships 

were where and had to begin plotting by only seeing mass of ships and
not  
class.
 
Of course fighters pretty much became null and void.
Leaving ships to deal with each other.
The Advance Superdreadnought had Advance Salvo missiles (IE: All salvoes
 
launched hitting with 6 missiles)
In short without giving round by round details. The NAC ended up turning
on 
 their FSE future allies and with special order to intercept and
preserve 
the  time line from being altered, turned on their FSE comrades. This
gave 
the IJN a  slightly better chance but they still lost their Hiryu CVL
and all 
its escort  and nearly all the DNs escorts. The few remaining FSE with
drew 
as well.
 
Though the IJN forces were not utterly destroyed, and the IJN did not  
achieve their goals of destroyers the FSE Carrier and other capital
ships. Only  
the NAC achieved its goal to prevent the time line from being altered
and 
the  war continuing on. However, the victory was only a slight victory
as the 
war  will go on after all, just not the same as the original time line	
remembers.
 
If you want better details, let me know and I will gladly give them to
ya  
all...
