A couple of pictures before I go sleep Java - you can see the AI has cut th eisland in two and has landed major forces in the North [image]local://upfiles/11987/07678641A81642F8A2E4709B3473DF64.jpg[/image]

As Bataan has fallen the AI is really in mop up mode now. Its secured the line Wake - Gilberts - Solomons - PM with an outlier at Canton PI is beiong mopped up Malaya conquered Sumatra being mopped up Java a little fight left but they are ashore in force Only in Burma is the fight in doubt - I have 1200 AV at Mandalay digging in for all they are worth The AI is now running around mopping up bases it bypassed So far so good only thing is no sign of KB - Lexington may have gotten a bigger piece of em than I realised Anyway good night guys I will try to do more tomorrow Andy

medicff -> RE: Port Moresbey Falls !!!! (5/28/2009 12:42:17 AM)
Ok you wanted questions [:)] Ground combat. No, none of that restricted command withdrawals or fragment rebuilding.... but Are land units still crucial to save? for example you committed 18th div to malaya but lose it. Will it rebuild? Should you rush in and save any fragment you can for a rest and rebuild? Should you just be conservative and save them? Should you have attempted to fly or withdraw via fast DD any brigades from PM? 2nd, Factors in getting the combat strength down (of opponent) Still by reducing supply, ground bombardment missions from LB, fatigue, morale are all still applicable? anything else. Thanks, great AR and WOW the AI is amazing and puts up a good advance. Pat

The Harbour attack with Betties is now 2x250kg SAP and 60kg's apparently. Those 250kg SAP are in a specific slot for that to happen? And what happens with other bombers?

Andy, you and the AE team have done wonders for the AI, Thanks! Daryl

Got to love how CL Boise has survived countless torpedo attacks by Betties! CL Tromp finally did run out of luck, but did quite well too. AI is giving quite good beating to Andy, hopefully his Mandalay roadblock holds. It's just on wrong side of the river...defensively.

Andy Mac -> RE: Port Moresbey Falls !!!! (5/28/2009 10:07:48 AM)
LCU's are still vital but with so many different pools of devices it really is a lot harder to rebuild I cannot afford to use all my British Squads to rebuild 18th Div - 2nd Div, various Indian Divs and 36th Div all use Brit Squads if I use all my reserves I will have a very fragile force It is a trade off - max AV or sustainable AV a constant balancing act especially for the CW - do I rebuild 8th Aus Div - yes I can if I do whats the consequence - well 300 less replacement Aus Inf Squads and they are a tight pool. Great care is required otherwise you will find yourself cannibalising units Because squad devices in the pool and in units upgrade to the latest type and because devices have stop dates you dont get massses of say Aus 42 squads in the pool that can be used to fill out that old formation. Every squad is vital In fact I suspect you will be rescuing fragments to send them to the rear area base to disband to the pool e.g. I rescue 50 Squads of 18th Brit Div - choices 1. Use that Bn sized Div to help out Java 2. Evac to India and rebuild 3. Use it as a rear area garrison with replacements off 4. Send it to Delhi and disband it to the pool at no VP cost to give me 50 British Infantry Squads for another unit. I strongly suspect in AE most players would do 3. until its clear India is safe then 4. you will need those squads. Rescuing fragments to rebuild the unit is less of an issue - rescuing fragments to get the additonal squads for your limited pools - vital

Andy Mac -> RE: Port Moresbey Falls !!!! (5/28/2009 10:11:23 AM)
The AI is better at getting AV down than we are In stock 0:1 attacks were crazy - the AI persists int hem as long as its doing more damage than it takes and it attrits allied early war AV's a lot A 1:3 attack result that causes each side 3k casualties is not always a bad result for the attacker as it reduces the infantry of the defender significantly and the attacker typically has more to spare. e.g. Attacker has 1,500 AV defender has 500 AV but level 4 forts Both sides lose 200 AV on a 1:3 attack Attacker now has 1200 v 300 so odds increase - AI is pretty ruthless about these calculations where most of us would balk. Andy

I am playing slightly careless and passive AI is doing ok but in the interests of speed i am not counterpunching everywhere I can but its doing ok Bataan suprised me and the speed of advance on Java shocked me

Hi Andy, thanks for posting. I have a question: These reports seem very... well, verbose. Is there a way, in game, of getting the action reports in a more concise form? I mean, it may be nice for the developers to get all that detail, but by crikey it's more than I want as a player.

dazoline II -> RE: Port Moresbey Falls !!!! (5/28/2009 2:49:37 PM)
I noticed a collision in the reports on March 19th. "xAK Shikano Maru collides with xAK Sensan Maru at 55 , 102" Both ships are mentioned after said collision and neither have heavy damage at the later time. So I'm guessing the damage is variable for a collision. Is the damage rated as both system and float damage? Is there potential to sink a ship from it? Does a smaller ship take more damage when colliding with a large one? Don't remember any questions about this, so posting here.
