Paulchen -> air to air after patch (6/21/2002 2:53:13 AM)
After patch 1.10 and 1.11 in game #19 nine turns my zero-landfighters are totaly destroyed. F1/Tainan 15 escort-missions over PM 1 kill F2/Tainan 15 escort-missions over PM 2 kill 25 zero and 10 Bettys destroyed 2 wirraways and 1 P-400 destroyed no P39 or P40 are killed All allied fighters of SWPC are in PM In version 1.00 the zero-groups allways have the advantage over the allied fighters and the results are changed (it doesn´t matter if human jap or allied). Have any other gamer the same results?

I haven't seen that in any version and I've had a great deal of success with zeros in 1.10 and 1.11 running Escort and Sweep missions from Rabaul to Port Moresby. Could you give us more details on the experience, altitude, fatigue, morale and commanders of your squadrons? Regards, - Erik

F1/Tainan F2/Tainan Av.Exp. 79 77 Morale 10 65 Fatigue 45 50 LCDR W.Obayashi LCDR T.Nakajima Leadership 67 73 Inspiration 44 80 Altitude 10000 10000 The problem was there since first turn 05/01/42, this was very frustating to me, because what will happen if the allied have better planes? It doesn´t change the problem, if i change altitude or any other, i start 3 games and allways the same. I play with ai "very hard", is this perhaps the reason?

Paulchen -> (6/21/2002 4:11:31 AM)
This can be the reason, but the morale, fatigue are in all games the same at the start, in patch 1.00 too, and i do all the same things. I only have the squadrons set target to PM, and nothing else. and this i have do in every game, i have never seen this results. I think all players do the same, like me, or not?

mogami -> settings (6/21/2002 4:22:05 AM)
Hi, it must be the very hard setting. Try this. Next game do not attack PM till the CV get to Rabaul. Then use the CV fighters to help escort the bombers. You should have much better odds then and get better results. Just leave the CV at PM (in a TF) with the fighters set to escort. Leave one group on training each turn. Every day put the fighter group with most damaged ac and low morale on training and replace with the group that had the day off.

Hi guys well, not to sound insulting or anything, but I think it is the commander not the troops, what alt is his bombers going in at ?. it does not matter what alt his fighters are set to, they fly cover for the bombers, get the bombers up higher and make the US fighters climb to attack, and I think the Zero's will do much better will say that the HARDer AI setting may be helping the Allied also, any mistake or misplay on his part is going to be hammered on, more so then before Mogami, if he can't go into combat with Exp levels of 77-79, then he may as well give up and go home, more training is not going to be the answer also as I think Erik was trying to say, where and how are you flying the Zeros, are they close range or long range, are you only flying cover missions or are you sending in sweeps too ? are the bombers comeing from only 1 base, or can you bring in bombers from a few bases ?, can you place a LR CAP over the target ? do you have the numbers or does the Allies one thing I see him say, I have always done it this way before, which may also be part of the hassle, you need to make changes, what works on easy, may/should not work on Hard, what works in game 3 may not work in game 17 and so on good luck mate HARD_Sarge

mogami -> Training? (6/21/2002 7:03:16 PM)
Hi, Who said anything about training? ( set mission to training but level to zero this is to insure the group does not fly but rests) I was thinking of scenario 17 and he is talking about scenario 19 but my point was not to train but to mass fighters before starting any bombing (let the bombers rest) Put all CV in Rabual then fly a recon to PM and count fighter groups on cap. Then assign enough fighters (landbased and carrier) to give a 2 to 1 edge. Excess fighters set to training so they do not fly. Each day put in a fresh group to replace a tired or damaged fighter group. Also only use 2/3 of the bomber force per day with the rested one replacing the most tired/damaged/low morale group. After a few days you should have the Allied fighters wore out. Just like you would not try to make a land attack with 1-1 odds don't fight air battles without good odds. If you can't achive these odds at PM attack someplace where you can. You will pull the PM groups into battle piecemeal.

[/B][/QUOTE] Hi Mogami okay I can agree with your thinking, only you did not explain it that way, from your other reply, I thought you were trying to gain more Exp before attacking will say though with the new air to air, not sure if any fighting is really going on, it looks like all the work to tell us what is going on, the combat got left out just had 23 Zeros and 3 Vals attack a CV TF sitting in Lunga (Hornet comeing in to join other CV TF and split them into 2 TF's) 143 F4F's and 16 P-39's, after a good 10 min's of combat, the attack started, my boys claimed 17 Zeros and 2 Vals (1 to Flak) for 3 F4F's (think my boys were greedy, I counted 12 Zeros and 1 Val during the fight) surprised the F4F's wern't flying into each other trying to shoot at a Zero but around PM, but haveing much more equal battles, and the losses are more around 3 or so for each side HARD_Sarge

How was the weather in comparison between the two? I find NG frequently in worse weather than the Solomons.

Mark Ezra -> (6/21/2002 10:44:47 PM)
To answer only the question of the patch vis a vi air combat. No, I have noticed absolutely no change. Air to air combat seems exactly the same as the original issue. I win some, I lose some with ever constant attacks degrading morale and fatigue on all combatants.

How much pilot fatigue is too much? lrcap really jacks this up, I see
