Rumor has it that it is 'date night' in this house tonight so...


My wife and I go out on "Date Night" at least once a week. Now more than ever because she works all week long and I work all week long. We don't see each other until 10pm at night and of course with the kids out of the house now its also easier to do anyway....GP

John,
Is it true that I can only deploy on map a few Chinese pilots as I get a message no more pilot slots - This is 1st turn 1 pbem 2 day turns RA7.2
I assume each nationality has a max number of pilots that they can have on map? Not had this problem before as only played Japs in scn 2?

Also a lot of China planes are stuck in the far north at the start is that WAD?

That has been the case in the official scenarios too. The Chinese were buying aircraft from the USSR before they switched to American supply and a lot of their aircraft would have arrived out in the back of beyond. The game lacks the base forces to move them down into the main part of China. That may have been a design error in the original scenarios.

Everything fixed and uploaded to the website. Kitakami caught an issue with the Chitose 2/42 upgrade--FIXED. Found some additional data field/ship class issues and got those handled.

You can download without issue. These can be added to existing games and should fix anything going FORWARD in your current campaigns.

Has anyone brought up the M10 wolverine? In tracker is shows a projection run from June 43 to December of 1944. If you look at the production run of this vehicle it should be from June of 1942 to December of 1944. The US TD units that arrive until June of 43 have no replacements for losses and if your fighting in India/Australia in a PBEM game it can be an issue.

I think it has been brought up else where as well. I don't have my reference materiel with me but Wiki also seems to verify this.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/M10_tank_destroyer

Or is there a reason for the delay in the arrival of the M10?

Those damned ships have proven to be elusive buggers. It is to my BELIEF that they are now in the French Ship Art File. Will---for about the 50th time--take a look...

John, I can send this file to you if you need it....GP

Also, The RA site says BTS1.5 for todays update. I think it should be 1.6. Just a small thing.

Move engineers to the dot bases up there and build air bases. Then you will be able to move them south. In the mean time use them to train pilots. Also move Base forces up to those locations....GP

I downloaded the damned things (French) and placed them directly into the cumulative art file in the appropriate areas. THEY ARE THERE!

I believe that new air artwork has been worked up for RAAF Buffalo. Is that available somewhere? Can't seem to find it on the download site.

Wanted to report an anomaly in BTS.

I'm running BTS 1.5 with executable 1123x10.

After assembling the 9th Indian Division and setting it in place to garrison Roti it somehow became gutted after one of the recent patches.

Here is a screenshot of it in its gutted condition:

I dug back among old saves to find it after it had been assembled and before it was gutted.

Here is a screenshot. Take note of the screwy numbers in the upper left denoting "percentage able/percentage total TOE":

And just so people don't think that all I do is complain ( I like to think of it as being helpful by reporting bugs and not as complaining), I'd like to sing some praise.

Anyone who frequents this forum knows I am a dyed-in-the-wool AFB. However, I have always been envious of the Japanese use of floatplanes and floatplane carriers.

The Allies have nothing that compares to the Japanese FP Carriers.

In Stock the Americans get two AVs with a small capacity of 4 (Langley and Wright) and the Dutch get a very small AVP with a capacity of 1 (Arend).

I always work to find rebuilt cruiser FP squadrons to equip these ships.

BTS has added an enhanced French navy and boy do I love it. They get a small AVP with a capacity of 2 (forget name) and this baby pictured below with a capacity of TWENTY.
This jewel is presently on its way to San Fran in my game to pick up Kingfisher squadrons. It can carry a full squadron of 18 planes plus a cruiser squadron of 4 planes.

It will be used to escort those quick transports TFs shipping huge troop concentrations. Its 21 knot speed allows it to keep up with those 17-22 knot fast troop ships.

I absolutely love this ship:

They aren't stuck. This has always been the case even in stock.

You have to move some base forces around to be able to stage the short legged I-16s out.

Hans: I don't think you complain at all. Finding this stuff is GREAT! It truly helps the other players and allows me to clean-up issues. Have no idea WHY the 9th Indian is like this. I haven't touched the Indian Army once. Michael did some work there. MICHAEL---Did you work on the 9th?

If you like that French ship what about the Allied CLV/CAV?

9th Indian Div (ID 6705) - This number refers to "Location" number in Editor. When you click on this number in the Editor, the important number is next to "TOE ID." Current number here is 2776 (NZ art) but should be 2745. This refers to the LCUs full TOE and upgrade path. Please fix John.

That bug was in ALL THREE Mods. Don't how that is possible when Treaty was separate of the other two. Have fixed and am now uploading all the files to the web site.

Hi John, I had some spare time and put this together from stuff I found it's the Amagi and Lexington BCs. I don't know if it's your cup of tea but if it is you're welcome to it.
