viking42 -> A few stupid questions (1/26/2006 2:06:28 PM)

Some things are still puzzling to me, i started playing again after a one year break, found a wife, had to be nice the first months, now i can fire turns again:)

- Is there a road between the Kyushu island and the main Jap island or do i have to send supplies to both? (sasebo ---> osaka road)

- How can it be on the grand campaign, that CVE/CVL based fighter squadrons upgrade to zeros but then get suddently 27 AC and pilots, not fitting anymore on those little CVE ( if kates are already onboard)

- Troop/squadrons benefit from the presence of HQ's, but do those HQ unit need to be from the same zone (southeast fleet, china HQ, homedefence etc..) to be effective? IE, will a ground troop of 4th fleet benefit from a corps HQ unit from souhteast fleet?


from a fellow reader, i'm there since ages but ya don't know it :)

not having played the IJ side, can't really give good answers to your first two questions. But the Troops from a different command are supposed to benefit from another HQ if they are within command range of the other HQ (or so i've been told/read/heard...)

The rail net will take care of things for you there.

CVEs don't have dedicated air units (exception: Hosho). The carrier-capable land-based units available to put on CVEs will always try to fill out to 27 a/c if you have replacements turned on. You can always split the daitai into chutai and mix and match them that way.

The CVLs have their own dedicated air groups, but if you transfer them to other ships or leave them sitting on a land base too long, unpredictable things may happen--they may change size or HQ affiliation (which can be disasterous if they change to a restricted command). Best bet is to leave them on their carriers unless absolutely necessary. If they do change max size, they will change back if you put them back where they belong. But that won't change the number of a/c. Best practice is to always leave these units set not to accept replacements, until you are all set up to micromanage this unit by unit. I always fill out CV air units by disbanding other units into them, never by accepting replacement a/c and pilots from the pool. You can maintain a higher quality level this way.

CVE Ryuho also has its own air group.



Sneer -> RE: A few stupid questions (1/26/2006 7:00:48 PM)

Ryuho is CVL not CVE



Mike Solli -> RE: A few stupid questions (1/26/2006 7:21:18 PM)

Really? Huh. I stand corrected.
