First thanks for this!

Thanks Daryl

You may want to leave some of the Philippine / USA units in play at Bataan but with high fatigue and a percentage disabled. This gives the Japanese player some extra victory points and allows the reconstruction of the 31st Inf Regiment and the 192nd / 194th Tank Bns if the allied player wants.
Also all the units (Units 5010, 5037, 5531 to 5540) in the Mindanao area have been 9999ed out. These I would again leave in with fatigue and partial disabled for points for the Japanese player.

Some marine defense units (5542, 5544 to 5547) have a delay of 9999 and probably should still be on the map.

Thanks Daryl

Not an in-depth evaluation but while I was clicking about I noticed the Brit 70th Inf Div in Burma doesn't have any infantry. Just some engineering squads.

Delete the following - 6302, 6320, 6321, 6657, 6658, 6731 and 6739.

you need to delete the parent reference and 9999 them. then the full div's will appear.

Status: offline 		I haven't tested this scenario, but I have noticed that in Nik's 1942 scenario the bug of the AI sending suicide TF to Pearl is still present. They seem to start in about July 42 and run into November 42. I'm no farther than Nov. 42 in Nik's scenario. I just thought this might be worth checking into Andy. I can't confirm, but I think it has something to do with Japan having control of Akyab or not.

Anyway I hope this helps and it's not a waste of your time. I just please ask of you to keep working on this Scenario and the AI for it. I only play agaisnt the AI so thus greatly appreciate your work on this project.

or to new task forces in different slots. Scrips probably use the actual task force slot - avoid that
slot and the script has nothing to boss re that slot. Or rewrite the script.

Status: offline 		Andy,

I downloaded your 42 Scen, and have found a couple issues.

USS Hornet is located on the East Coast, should be either NW of Pearl (1-2 days out) at Sea with Enterprise returning from the Doolittle Raid or located at Pearl.

Saratoga should be at San Diego under going repairs from a torpeado hit in January. She didn't leave San Diego until June 1st

I believe all the US BB's at Pearl should be located at San Diego or San Fran, as they were being held back in reserve or under going upgrades. They put to sea off the west coast several hundred miles during the Battle of Midway, as a "plan B" in case things at midway went bad and the Japs were indeed going for the West Coast. Before Midway they didn't sortie much AFAIK.

Hope it helps
