I don't think the Ohka are working right. I conducted a test where I placed an allied fleet off of Iwo Jima and attacked them w/ three G4M2e units. These planes constantly attacked the fleet from 3/1/45 to 6/2/45. Sometimes attacking twice a day. During that time no hits were registered. I tried from 1000 ft up to 15000ft, no difference. The bombers attack, make a pretty noise, but nothing happens.

It is now June 15 with no hits. All pilots are now in the 80s when it comes to experience and still no hits.
I do not think the game recognizes the OHKA as a bomb or ordinance. If you look at the plane database the G4M2e has the OHKA listed but under electronics, not bomb load out. If you look at the plane when in the air unit menu it does not list any bomb load out at all.
Does anyone in Matrix know what is going on?

There is a known bug with the Ohka and its inability to hit a ship. It has already been passed on to the programmers.

Do kamikazes at least work? I have yet to be able to convert a unit and then have it fly.

When do Kamikazes get turned on? Is it fixed by a game date or by allied advance to certain bases?

I ask because I am playing a full game as the allies using War Plan Orange with amazing success so far. Its April 42 and I hold Rabaul and all of New Guinea, the ABDA units made a planned withdrawl to Timor to act as a speed bump if the Japs decide to go for Oz that way. They never got Wake and I have used light infantry to take and hold Tarawa, makin and Mili - securing my SF-OZ sea lanes. I plan to take Eniwetok in the next month and then Marcus in mid summer. BTW, I will be ignoring Macs continued pleas to FDR to retake the Philippines. I plan to fight this war under the plan as devised, just to see if it could be done and cut 12-18 months off the war.

If I get into the Marinas by 43 and take Iwo about the same time will the Kamikazes turn on, or do I have until early 45 to wait for that?

Check the Ohka mission thread in this section for kamikazes activation.
