If you go to your Ground Reinforcement Screen in your Intel Reports Menu(shortcut i), you will see that these two Base Forces will arrive in 2 Days.
This is valid for Stock Scen#1 and #2.

Kneecaps, I don't have time to sit around here waiting for you to revert after asking a question.. so if you are on scenario 1 -

Follow these steps:

1. click on the AE editor shortcut and open.

2. At top left click file on the tool bar, then open then open that scenario.

3. Click the locations tab.

4. there is a white box up the top under the ship classes tab. Type 111th USN na...

5. By now location slot 5053 should be highlighted.

6. Examine the location screen - over on the left there is a gray box with "Delay" in it.

7. There is a green box immediate right of that which probably has the numeric code 411209 in it.

8. After a whole playing AE you will automatically recognise that as the date 9th December 1941.

9. New units arrive at days end, not the beginning of the turn like an SPI boardgame.

10. Are you up to your 10 December turn?

Repeating the exercise for the 112th USA should show it in slot #5054, same delay date.

Is there something in Kull's spreadsheet that indicates that?

Or just use the ingame information screens.

Thanks for the input. I'm on GMT +12 timezone so didn't immediately see your reply. I thought the strength of a forum was it's asynchronous nature meaning people didn't need to sit around waiting for replies. I may have been doing it wrong all these years.

Anyhow....yes, you're correct, this unit is available after 1 day, I'm playing the start on 8th December.

Kull's spreadsheet to my understanding appears to expect these to be available on the first turn and be loaded after 2 turns. They are also not listed on the Arrival Dates tab either...

Thank you.

For the Allies, consider the first full turn to be 8 December, 1941.

The reinforcement queue is not even populated until the first turn is run, because the players can choose what variability they want in their reinforcements. So you can only look at the queue from Dec. 8th if you start Dec. 7th and Dec. 9th if you start Dec. 8th.
