I'm playing the 1.0.2.1096 patch and Bataan has just fallen in late Feb 1942 with the Japanese as the AI.

But I noticed a week before the fall, the AI would send in carrier units (Shokaku, Ruyjo etc.) into the same hex as Bataan and be hit multiple times with the enormous coastal batteries that Bataan has.

I'm not sure if this is a bug or just FOW issue with maybe transports being mistaken for carriers.

But it just seems very odd that the AI would actually send fleet carriers into a hex occupied by enemy coastal batteries.

Anyone else noticed this?

I would expect the AI to be a lot smarter than this to risk his carriers so early on against defended coastlines :-)

I don't think the latest hotfixes addresses this.

Probably the same fuel level issue were you playing on historical ?

Yes I'm playing the historical campaign game from 1941-1946 I believe.

I'm starting to wonder if I should have restarted a new game with the latest patch instead of using a saved game from earlier versions.

Would a restart solve this?

Obviously from a historical perspective, I would have loved to see enemy carriers getting hit by coastal guns...but as a gamer...it's a bit disappointing to see silly moves like these
