Samurai -> They won't attack (10/24/2002 3:06:00 PM)

I have three CV TF around Solomons clearing the Slot of the Express and IJN CV's. Or at least that is my intetion! But not that of my TF's... His CV's can calmly come all the way to Lunga (near Lunga, that is) and my commander won't even try to attack. Everything is set for attacking, react to enemy, naval attack...etc But not a single plne gets of a ship! And Wasp, Enterprise and Saratoga are filled with planes... And I am going crazy... Is this soposed to be, am I doing something wrong, or is it just bug or something like that, I don't know... Anyone?

If your CV have over 110% of their air compliment, that prevents your planes flying. This could happen if you have based your air groups on ground base and reassign them to CV. They grow too big. Or you might have had depleted air groups so you based an extra one (two) on the CV. Your CV have been given replacement planes and you have gone over 110%.

How much naval search are you doing with your float planes, carrier planes, and LBA?



Toro -> (10/24/2002 10:08:26 PM)

Per Pasternakski: make sure your torpedo/bomber squadrons are conducting nav search to AT LEAST 20 percent, 30 if you can afford it. Your air wings won't attack on "old" info, so the more planes in the air, the more current the sightings, and hence the more chance of attack.

Also watch for Ops points use. If you're moving your CVTF around too much, you're using Ops points, leaving fewer for attacks.

How do you check for Operations Point usage?

Admiral_Arctic:

My CV's are at 80-90% of air compliment!

pasternakski:

Nav search of about 60-80. Depends on fatigue.

Toro:

my TF's are around Lunga, not much moving around. Good number of Ops pt. Every turn my recon planes have the sightings of 2 or three TF's (Air, and one seems like surface combat or bombardment), and castwatchers have them too. Info is, like, updated every turn.


I don't know, the Jap's are bombarding Lunga heavy, no transport get's by, and if it get's there hissurface combat TF sinks them at night. Airport down, runaway full of holes... and my freaking carriers won't lift a plane!

Thats a pretty big %, that might be your problem. attack planes detailed to naval search will often not be available for carrier strikes once the enemy is found. Try reducing it to 20% and leave your torp bombers at 0 because of their smaller numbers and range (unless using TBF)
