I am playing Raver in Scn15. No carriers have been engaged or damaged. However I transferred Yorktown and the Lady's air groups to Luganville where they went head to head with vast numbers of Raver's zeros. 1 air group, VF-42, has 1 fighter and 8 pilots left. The other, VF-3, has 5 fighters and 11 pilots. These squadrons are flying f4f-3 wildcats. There are no f4f-3 wilcats in the replacement pool, and the rate they are entering the pool is 0 (and it is now mid august in the game). So as a result, it is almost a month later, and these two fighter squadrons have had NO replacements in spite of being in port, and back on their CVs. Surely there should be f4f-3 replacements coming into the game - there are in scn 17 at the very start of the game - in MAY. How is it that in all my other scns f4f-3s are plentiful, especially later in the game because they are not being flown, but there are none in this???? More importantly, there are over 40 f4f-4 wildcats in the replacement pool waiting to be used - why doesn't either of these squadrons upgrade to f4f-4s and use those aircraft? Until this issue is resolved I am 60 fighters short - and this will no doubt screw up my game with Raver! Should I just wait (more????) surely 133% of 1 aircraft is 1.3 - so both squadrons should have upgraded according to the rules. Should I send the carriers back to Pearl? Help!?
