I might propose a different algorithm. I have only played this game 4 times, and only once to a conclusion. One thing is that this is a WEGO game. Therefore, one issue that must be coded for is a small force happens by chance to engage a large force. I assume there are GG die rolls .. but my observations are that there is a test for the smaller force not to engage and close the distance with a much larger force. I have no idea if the calculations are tonnage or number of guns, or ???? but the software makes some calculation and the smaller force simply does not engage. I have experienced this often enough to decide that raiding forces have to be large enough to engage the enemy. Even if there are only merchants. I have found a single larger platform (CA) to be a difference maker, but that could be coincidental to some unknown die roll.

The fact that this occurred twice with an aggressive naval leader, and my own experience at this game .. I am thinking very pimply there were too many ships to engage. Even if these ships were mostly merchants.

One question I have is .. how many escorts and the ratio of escorts to attacking ships?

Do you have air groups flying naval Search in this area? I think a large part of this is detection levels. If the Japanese have AC that spot your TF then my WAG is that it increases John's TFs ability to avoid.

The DL thing is pretty well explained in the manual and I believe that this is the main check, followed by EXP, Commander Aggressiveness, and TF settings to route safer or run at first blush (as Canoerebel alluded in a post up above).

The armada sets out (well, the transports moved a day previous but were joined by surface vessels and carriers today) for its targets for amphibious landings. This is a bit of a risk as they aren't fully prepared, but nor do I expect John's defense to be. Jphn has some DL on them, but I have begun sweeping Horn as well as setting my initial route that direction to make him think I'm going up towards Horn and Merauke. This next turn will see me move west and go around Milne Bay.

I should note that John tried something devious. I had noticed over the past 5 or so turns that John had started to to deep recons of bases like Townsville and, knowing he can deep strike with his Liz's, I got smart and quickly put fighters in CAP mod at Townsville, where I have a large number of ships. Seeing the fighters, he never attempted this. Last turn, he randomly recon'd a nearby base, Bowen, with good DL and no doubt saw I had my carriers and other ships parked there without fighters. Assuming he might launch a strike (and also leaving anyways to join the transports), I had all my carriers and other vessels leave port. The result was all that John's Liz's only found an AM in port and a lot of flak.

Elsewhere, my sub gets a nice target on CA Nachi moving west in the DEI, but of course it fails to hit it. A DD also runs into transports off Madang and does minimal damage.

BTW, your transports are already WSW of Milne Bay, so they will have to move east if they want to go around Milne Bay ...

Status: offline 		Haha, yes, I meant to type east there! Next turn is in, but nothing happens. CAP kills Japanese nav search over my transports. Tomorrow, paratroopers will land at Torokina just north of Buna, as well as Hansa Bay, a few hexes north of Madang.

In Ceylon, forts at Koggala are reduced to 1 with Japanese troops suffering more casualties. BB Warspite is approaching Diego Garcia to see what's there. A couple of DDs seem to be parked at Addu, conducting either fast transport missions or something similar - I will meet them with some DDs set to flank speed from Colombo.

EDIT

I have begun putting some subs back to harass Japanese supply lines. A tanker was hit a few turns ago with fuel heading to Truk (sinking sounds). This past turn or two turns ago, another tanker was hit north of Palembang (sinking sounds also heard). In addition to this, some xAKs have started taking torps.

Interesting stuff. First John sends a CL/DD TF down to Buna that doesn't hit anything, and only takes 1 or 2 bombs from LBA DB's (I have my carriers in defensive mode at the moment. This is followed by a lot of Japanese surface ships (and even CVLs and CVE - looks like a mini KB) appearing at Horn Island, either to put more troops on the island or extract troops. In the process a Japanese CVL and CVE take a mine. I conduct a number of sweeps that do okay over Horn Island, but not well enough to knock down the CAP there. John's fighters hurt my heavy bombers.

This doesn't look like a huge amount of carrier power based on the CAP over Horn, but they could hit my transports in the rear of my carriers in the Coral Sea area. For now, I am converging on Lae and Madang with LRCAP helping. Meanwhile, lots of PTs are once again headed for Horn Island. Maybe I can get lucky and sink a CVL with a PT torpedo. At Buna, John attempted to place another division (The China Assault division), but based on combat there, it doesn't look like they'll stop the 1st Marine division from taking the place.

The Buin/Torokina forces should make landings tomorrow. Tokorina and Hansa Bay were taken by air assault today. Landings will also happen at Lae (a surface force will be broken off in an attempt to destroy John's CL/DDs at Buna). I wonder if I should land forces without full prep at Madang or instead land them at Hansa and move down.

Elsewhere, subs sink 2-3 xAKs.



Is another large extended month-long battle coming?

Status: offline 		In India, we take Koggala and wipe out the forces at Jaffna. Unfortunately, our BB force gets spotted and will skedaddle back to Bombay under flank speed to get in range of LRCAP. Also, the enemy surface force at Addu is bigger than expected, but our 3 DDs will try their luck.

Part of KB makes its appearance. John gets into my CVEs covering landings at Torokina; and while they break through the ~60 or so fighters providing CAP, I lose only one CVE for the day (as well as some transports off of Port Moresby in Surface action). John loses a DD to a PT torpedo, as well as numerous bombers from LBA positions. Fun stuff! This doesn't seriously hamper me, if a bit annoying. We will move east to cover Buin and then up towards Kavieng and then over.

All in all, could've been worse. Should have simply had everything go one route from the beginning.

Edit

Will be interesting to see next turn. My carriers are going at flank speed with range for DBs/TBs/fighters set to range of 8. This is backed up by dedicated CAP from fast CVEs and 75 P-38Gs (with a range of 16 using droptanks) from Tagula Island. The smart thing would be for John to move back out of range now that surprise is lost, but this is John we're talking about. He might try to "finish off" the ships hit at Torokina.

My only worry is my carriers don't move to where they are supposed to. Direct and absolute threat tolerance settings. If John doesn't fight, then we finish landings at Torokina and then move up to Kavieng.

that combat report will be the one that is real.

Oh no.

As stated above, all I have it the 001 file, so a sync bug could be at play here. If so, it would the very first one of this game for me and come at a most unfortunate turn...I'm about to be very depressed, aren't I?



What is the date of your attacks?

The previous map screenshot said June 7/43, so the turn being discussed should be June 8/43.
