Mobeer -> ASW gone wrong (5/22/2008 2:12:43 AM)
When ASW goes wrong - I have no idea what the game is thinking of here: ASW attack at 59,51 Japanese aircraft no flights Allied aircraft no flights Japanese aircraft losses A6M5 Zeke: 21 destroyed B6N Jill: 14 destroyed Allied aircraft losses P-63A: 1 destroyed Beaufighter VIF: 1 destroyed Japanese Ships CVL Chitose, and is sunk PC Awaji, and is sunk MSW Banshu Maru #51, and is sunk AP Takayo Maru, and is sunk AK Tetsuzan Maru, and is sunk AP Hibi Maru, and is sunk AP Rozan Maru, and is sunk AP Fukuju Maru, and is sunk Japanese ground losses: 1493 casualties reported Guns lost 7

Looks more like a really heavy case of shore bombardment-itis. Certainly not an ASW attack. Is this a PBEM? Perhaps you have synch problems?

Is this real? Has Mobeer been drinking with Knavey? [:D]

This happen just as two allied A/C were passing over the harbor, thus being destroyed. It's all so simple. [:D]

Sometimes stuff like this shows up with carryover from ships sinking at the beginning of the turn... so, if a TF with the CVL Chitose got smacked last turn, and sank this turn, this kind of stuff might show up.

Mobeer -> RE: ASW gone wrong (5/22/2008 9:37:02 PM)
Well there are some bits I understand. - The game is against the Japanese AI. It overloaded Chitose with too many aircraft making it an easy sinking. - The allied losses I think must have been training related operational losses - the only P63 units are inactive Soviet units on training. - The other ships are probably ships sunk earlier in the turn by airstrikes, they might have appeared in the message logs as the turn progressed. - Then the troop loses would have been from a merchant ship sinking Still no idea but the ASW description though. Maybe I'm too upset about sinking Hibiki to think straight.

HansBolter -> RE: ASW gone wrong (5/22/2008 10:04:36 PM)
Even in my very limited experience I have seen bizzare things appear in ASW combat reports such as even befrore a listing of the forces involved it includes a message that such and such a pilot has bailed out or been killed when no planes are involved.

niceguy2005 -> RE: ASW gone wrong (5/22/2008 10:29:45 PM)
As rtrapasso said, this is a known bug, where losses that occured previously are actually reported during and ASW attack. It's just rare to losses of that magnitude. IIRC casualties due to damage caused by mines frequently is reported in ASW combat.

It is a nuclear attack by a submarine! [image]http://members.aol.com/ntspark/myhomepage/0857403.jpg[/image]
