Status: offline 		Well, finally convinced myself to try a game as the Japanese...against the AI....

Just underway, DBB-C Dec 8 scenario to learn "the darkside".

Anyway, its now 14 Dec (playing 2 day turns),and I've brought the Ryujo up to Takao to change out the Claudes
for Zeros and link up with Zuiho/Hosho coming down from Japan to form the "mini KB". Plan is to use Mini-KB to support
landings in the Kuching area and then Mersing.

My problem I just discovered is that I can't re-load the Ryujo with torpedoes for the Kates at Takao....and my quick
glance south shows no ports which would do so.

So how do you all reload torps for the Jpn CVs operating against Malaya/DEI early in the war?

Or, you could just sail to Cam Rahn Bay and load there. If you want to know more about ordnance load costs (rearm costs) check out 20.1.2.2 of the manual, starting on p 284. You'll find torp costs beginning on p287.

are your two main forward bases on the area until Singapore is yours

I'll let you know....


For what I want to do - learn the complexities of the Japanese side though mid '42, I should be OK. I played the DBB-C from the Allied
side against the AI and am having a reasonably good game through Oct 42. AI did the usual stupid probing of PH with
some surface forces, but did a good job in expanding in early '42.

I tend to play a fairly historical game (from either side) and try not to "break" the AI.

My goal in these two games is to re-learn WiTP AE after a prolonged absence and eventually re-learn enough for PBEM!
