The automatc sub function is working ok

Capetown is the new supply hub for auto convoy in the West I am using a mix of CS convoys and Auto convoys to keep my forces supplied

The buildup is a LOT slower in AE - India and Australia are both in need of supplies

Batavia falls this turn the last major concentration of allied ground power in the DEI and Burma

this result from the day before Mandalay fell disturbs me...

Vehicles lost 24 (11 destroyed, 13 disabled)

Firstly, the AI seems to routinely make attacks at WAY worse than 1:3 odds - and why not when results like this can happen? What commander would expect to get results like this if he is told he has 1:22 odds? (well, besides suicidal japanese army commanders ) There must be way more factors at play here than the odds, but I'm having trouble identifying what they are....the attacker got this result with ZERO attack mods....perhaps the defender mods are incredibly detrimental?

Thanks again...

Status: offline 		Its a good question and the answer is complicated

But here goes there are two broad phases with lots of sub phases in combat.

The fire phase and the assault phase

In the fire phase most of the casualties occur units fire at each other Arty is involved and units do most of the casualties
The assault phase works out the odds

My Mandalay Garrison had a mix of Indian 1941 Squads, Burmese Squads and Chinese Squads

All of these squads are low firepower (the Indian 41 Squad is a speacial one which includes a lower firepwoer than TOE would indicate because they were not fully equiped at a Squad level) e.g. shortage of Brens (or even WW1 vintage Hotchkiss LMG's) and 2" Mortars - the Indian Army had expanded extremely quickly and even small arms had not kept up.

Where units did have the better 42 Indian or British Squads they are in smaller units so have suffered a higher proportion of disablements

Also the entire allied Corps (except the Chinese) had been retreated at least once some twice losing a lot of equipment in the process so they dont have many heavy guns left

Lastly there is now a chance that units with low morale, high disruption, poor xp and inferior leaders will surrender - its a remote chance but small units with poor leaders and sub 50 experience - i.e. the Burmese Bns will on occasion just disintigrate when attacked

After the first 6 months you will almost never see it because unit xp and leaders are better and it needs both to be piss poor to really impact.

So lets take each combat in turn

Allied forces have few tanks most of the Infantry units have AV but are in poor shape only 7th Armoured is anything like itself at this point and 5th Chinese Corrps

Is there still a die roll for the Allied medium bombers to carry heavier bombs (1000 pounders) once their experience gets above a certain number (I thought it was over 70 in stock)??

Is it possible in the AI script to have it concerntrate construction engineers at the main captured economic assets to build up the port to max size to facilitate the loading of Oil and Resources?? In my limited time playing as Japan, I try to do this to help turn around time.

Yes the AI scripts do concentrate engineer assets at the right places

2 issues 1. its named units so if destroyed the AI will not replace them
2. AI build everythign equally so I tend to go voerkill for a while but there are whole AI scripts dedicasted to moving engineers around from base to base ;)

The long march out of Burma is almost complete troops are digging in at Assam and along the frontier at Cox Bazaar and Chittagong.

Status: offline 		It seems to me that the AI is attacking to cause Allied casualties which is wearing the allied troops down, is it also causing heavy losses for the AI? And would they be acceptable losses for a human player. Reason I ask is that in stock you can pretty much destroy your offensive ability with a couple of shock attacks, but that doesn't seem to be the case here. Can you now (withing reason) have a blitz of sort's if you have a quality advantage but not a numbers advantage over your opponent? Like what Japan had in Malaya.

Thanks for the great AAR also.

Status: offline 		Oh crap I should have paid more attnetion Japanese 25th Div hit COx Bazaar hard kicking out a weak allied force

(Cox Bazaar is hard to defend in the new map as its can be bypassed - I guessed wrong and the AI caught me out)

70th Div is at Chittagong witht he recovering 17th Indian Div (a shell)

I am scratching around for help all over.

AI is also hitting Diego Garcia - I may have been over optimistic thats its on the defensive

Colombo is trashed by KB while a IJN TF hits SYDNEY harbour

USN is out of position covering Tahiti I will try a speed run to cover it
