ORIGINAL: MosheDayan Hi. I'm pretty new to the game, though enjoying it immensely. I read the forum religiously. A question for the old timers. In my first GC as the allies against the AI, I had a CA badly damaged during surface combat near Midway. Given the enemy activity in and around Midway, I decided to risk sailing her under escort to Pearl. As she approached French Frigate Shoal, her damage started to increase markedly (now 42/89/49), so I disbanded her at French Frigate, which has a port of 0/0, and a supply limit of 5k. I hoped that by sending an AR to disband there it would help repair the ship, but that didn't have any effect. I'm wondering what I should do? She's too far away to sail her elsewhere (I think I'll lose her). I thought of putting 2 regiments of engineers on FF Shoal to increase the port to 1, but with the supply limit I don't know if I can maintain over the 20k supplies required to actually build up a port. Any advice or ideas on how to save this ship? Thanks. I had something like this happen in a previous game against the AI. I kept the ship at Midway until all the minor damage was fixed and then was able to successful sail her to Pearl Harbor.
