This coming weekend, the 4-6th is the 1st Weekend in April.
I seem to be the only one with a HY1 1937 posted.

Do folks wish to move to HY2,
or delay.

I'd be fine with a 2 week delay, or even a month.
I have lots of blathering to do.

Other Topic : Deck Park Discussion in the other thread, was hoping others would chime in.

I can post my 1hy37 whenever.   Been a bit busy with my boss on vacation so I'm running the shift.  And trying not to die in the south's first spring season.....the pollening.

I do have a bit of work to do on some designs for 37 and 38.  But 1937 is a bit of a submarine year.

Until 5 years ago I did not suffer from spring blooms.
Then I developed allergies to *something * that blooms around my office down on the coast. Much better at my house a bit more inland. Luckily it's non-existent in the forest, so when I get a field day- nice.
Lasts a couple weeks, started a couple weeks ago, almost done, but had me dragging for a while.
Bought claritin for the first time ever, helps a lot.

I usually have allergies for the first couple of weeks.  We have the pollening, then spring, then summer, then high summer, then Indian summer, fall, winter.

This year hit worse than most, on meds for a bad sinus infection from allergies.   And that's with Claritin. 

Once this clears up I'm good, my tolerance comes back.   Thankfully.....those with bad pollen allergies get borderline suicidal around here when the dogwoods and pines start up.

Swamped by work and a health emergency this week, so I'm a bit behind.  No need to hold back on my account, though.

I think acknowledging that real life sometimes deals us a bad hand is just fine.

We only went to HY2 1937 mid month, so this is just a 2 week mark.

If we go to HY1 1938 on the 11th, that's 3 weeks,
and gives us 3 weeks to go to HY2 at the beginning of May.

So we will wait at least a week and ask the question again :)

HY2 done.

Now to look at 38.1

And look at that, 28,000t of ship I need to build.   Time to lay down the 3rd sovereign class, some escort carriers, new cruisers, and fleet DDs. 

Also time to try a 155mm gun on a DD again.

So now we're at 4/11.
Apparently the choice was to go from HY1, 1937 to HY2, 1937...not as I babbled later to HY1, 1938.

So lets consider 4/11 the start of HY2 1937
with 5/1 being the target for HY1, 1938

I'm not far off a 1/37 report, but work continues to be really swingy as government people like me are getting caught up in the grind of our federal election.

Sorry to hear that.
At least that's just under 2 weeks off, so an endpoint.

I don't want any of us to feel rushed or that this is a grind that they have to do just to keep up.
I would far rather pause for a month and let folks take care of real life.
Besides you had a world tour going on :)

I'm mostly there, there's just the small but not unwelcome challenge of using 6 BP that I hadn't otherwise allocated for anything.

Build 12 submarines.   Or 300 MTBs

You can also save it for the next HY.

Between refurbishments, naval infrastructure, and non-naval builds,
I seem to soak up all the BP I make.
...and then want more.

I decided to expend 3 BP on coastal defence stuff that I otherwise never want to invest in.

Another possibility would be to make a lovely gift of BP to a needy nation, such as poor Parthia....
