Avenger -> PT Boats and Sub Chasers (6/16/2002 8:32:07 AM)
|
After playing for about 70 hours I finally saw my PT Boats in action, and they were a force to behold! I had by this time about 40 PT boats scattered throughout the theater, each boat in its own little hex. I didn't think they were good for much except to sit there like a screen. Each boat sitting there night and day not doing a thing. Then, after months of no action, I clicked end turn and I got a bunch of messages, "PT 100 reacts to enemy forces." Then a whole lotta my PT boats displayed that message. WTF? So I watched. There followed a night battle. My PT boats all met a force of Battleships and Cruisers in the harbour at Lunga. I had about six boats that reached Lunga, and they put a significant hunrting on Cruisers and Light Cruisers of those Japs. This was great stuff! They actually reacted and moved a good distance to engage in a night battle. Although 3 PT boats were sunk, the Japs will be a long time putting out the Fires on those CA's! Now I know how to use PT boats! My question then is, how do I use those Sub Chasers?! --Avenger
