Fighter pools and upgrades USN ______________________________________________________________________________ This is much more straight forward. All CV squadrons upgrade to the F4F-4 and then F6F and then finally ends up with the F8F. This upgrade path is used for ALL CV/CVL based squadrons including arriving ones. So I won´t be able to fly and Corsairs of my CVs until 1/45 when all heavy CVs resize and gets a new 36 plane squadron with Corsair 1Ds. The CVEs on the other hand are a bit more complicated. Seems to be many different paths and I can´t seem to find a pattern in it. Most squadrons seem to be stuck in the Wildcat path. But some are able to upgrade to the Hellcat. At first I thought only the VF squadrons (some CVEs get them too) could upgrade but I have found at least 2 VC(F) squadrons that can upgrade to the Hellcat. Could be connected to the type of CVE? The VRF squadrons also seem to be a mix. Most go the Hellcat path but 2 follows the Wildcat path. This will have a serious impact on the allied CV/CVE fleet. Not a positive one. No Corsairs and 95% of the CVE fleet flying Wildcats throughout the game. Not sure I want to find out what a Japanese KB strike against an allied CVE fleet with Wildcats will look like! [X(] On the other hand PDU OFF will have a serious impact on Japanese LBA and the KB too. No more unhistorical 800kg bombs Judy-4s. All CV based DBs end with the D4Y4 version. If I remember correctly that model was never CV capable but it is in the game. I´m also assuming there will be a less potent LBA threat. Might be wrong on that one though! [X(]

Uuugh. Just hit a bug in China. The same old movement bug as usual. No reset this time but they didn´t move to the intended hex but into another. Bläääh. I asked Tom to re run the turn and see if they shift hex as they should.

JocMeister -> RE: Japanese land in OZ!! (9/5/2014 2:10:45 PM)
Tom reran the turn but still the same thing. Sucks but neither of us wants to wait for Michealm so I will just have to live with it.

JocMeister -> RE: Japanese land in OZ!! (9/5/2014 2:17:23 PM)
This could turn out interesting... Pulled back a bit towards the SW. I hope that will bring me out of range for a night battle and into range of LBA. Not sure what Tom has. Probably CAs + DDs like me. I hope there isn´t any fast BB in that lot... [image]local://upfiles/32406/4A7FDEE5330D4EA08F3C1A3C2DBA5162.jpg[/image]

8th August 42 ______________________________________________________________________________ Nothing exciting! ------------------------ SOPAC/OZ ------------------------ Tom pulled back. First time I´ve seen him back out of combat. [X(] He only had a 6/6 DL on "Ching" though and might have seen BBs. Then again...why fear old allied BBs? My bet is that he will be back with the KB very shortly. Time to get out of Dodge... Tom also swept Sydney. Not happy with the results. Some heads have rolled and I now hope to do better next time... quote: Morning Air attack on Sydney , at 90,167 Weather in hex: Moderate rain Raid detected at 14 NM, estimated altitude 33,190 feet.

Time to send the 4Es in again. Almost 400 planes at Brisbane now. I´ll set the bombers up 12k this time and hopefully AA will be less painful. ------------------------ Burma ------------------------ Sweeps hit Calcutta too. Didn´t do very well since most of my fighters were resting. Not a mistake I will repeat... quote: Morning Air attack on Calcutta , at 52,37 Weather in hex: Light rain Raid detected at 80 NM, estimated altitude 33,190 feet.

I´ll set the bombers up 12k this time and hopefully AA will be less painful. If Japan is really that concentrated on Brisbane he must be much weaker in the rest of OZ. Perhaps the move is to bypass Brisbane for now and eliminate the Japanese to the north. It will be a thorn in your side during the process but I don't think it will be a knife. When everything else is eliminated it will be easier to take on the hordes at Brisbane.

When everything else is eliminated it will be easier to take on the hordes at Brisbane. I´ve considered that. I don´t have enough troops to move North and in the meantime make sure Tom doesn´t counter attack out of Brisbane and cuts me off. I need a little bit more troops for that. Working on that though.

Japanese Subs ______________________________________________________________________________ Not really sure what Erik is doing to have such an easy time with GJs subs. Tom can act with impunity. Some examples. A week ago I spotted a sub just outside San Diego. Sent a 4 ship APD TF to "deal with it". Sat in the same hex for 6 turns. No hits scored. Only 1 attack. Sub left after it ran out of TTs shooting at the APDs. I have a sub sitting in Auckland harbor. It has made no less then 4 attacks on the Achilles/Perth TF. No attacks ever made on the sub. It left after running out of TTs. I have a sub sitting in the shallows around Fiji. I had 3 different ASW TFs chasing it. It left after it fired all its TTs on the ASW ships. And now this... quote: Sub attack near Ta'u at 151,159 Japanese Ships SS I-172 Allied Ships CV Illustrious CA Chester CA Portland CLAA Van Heemskerck DD Hammann DD Russell DD Mustin SS I-172 launches 4 torpedoes at CV Illustrious I-172 diving deep ....

My ASW TFs/Escorts are very close to 100% ineffective. I´ve sunk a whooping 2 subs so far. Mines have been thrice as effective. When I realized just how ineffective my ASW was a month back I started training ASW pilots. Will take at least 2 more months before the first batch is ready though.

BBfanboy -> RE: Japanese land in OZ!! (9/5/2014 6:25:20 PM)
Do your ASW ship skippers have both high naval 60+ and high aggression 60+? In ASW aggression seems to equal persistence rather than daring.

quote: ORIGINAL: BBfanboy Do your ASW ship skippers have both high naval 60+ and high aggression 60+? In ASW aggression seems to equal persistence rather than daring. No, not on the individual ships. But the TF commander always have a at least 50 in naval skill and at least 60-65 in aggression. Couldn´t afford the PPs to switch out all the captains. Perhaps on the APDs but not on all the SCs, AMs, KVs and PGs.

Sangeli -> RE: Japanese land in OZ!! (9/5/2014 7:34:08 PM)
As with many AFBs your problem is that you think you need to train ASW in pilots before using them in that role. Bad idea! Of course training ASW is useful but you need planes flying the missions more right now. Get some groups flying ASAP even if their ASW skill is low; eventually they can be replaced with better trained pilots. At the very least the detection from air will prevent the Japanese subs from launching effective attacks against your ships making it a worthwhile deployment.

Lowpe -> RE: Japanese land in OZ!! (9/5/2014 7:45:44 PM)
Put those squadrons on 40 ASW, 40 train, 20 rest, 1-2k altitude and search arc to cover the area. Put a float plane squadron on night search the infested area. Put another group on day naval search the infested area. 3 Squadrons (or if the area is small 3 splinters of one squadron), plus send in your ASW group, break them into 3's instead of 4's increase their react range. Good commander with naval/aggression worst case drop multiple different types of mines. even worst case -- don't go there. You have some planes with working radar already...Aussie bombers and one NZ bomber that I recall off the top of my head. Use them.

JocMeister -> RE: Japanese land in OZ!! (9/5/2014 7:48:42 PM)
Some squadrons of WHAT? [:D]

JocMeister -> RE: Japanese land in OZ!! (9/5/2014 7:51:08 PM)
Btw, I just got a crazy, crazy thought...Was just about to pull the trigger until I realized I had a beer or two. I think I´ll wait until tomorrow before pulling any triggers! [:D]

quote: ORIGINAL: JocMeister Some squadrons of WHAT? [:D] You complain bitterly about being awash in outdated planes. Well, it don't matter for ASW...heck almost any plane works great in either a naval search or if the range is there an ASW mode. Old SBDs, Wirraways, Bolo, etc, you have much more than you realize. Where is the beer AAR? What are you drinking tonight?

offenseman -> RE: Japanese land in OZ!! (9/5/2014 8:32:15 PM)
+1 on an ASW/Train/Rest split that these guys are talking about. It gets your planes in the air doing more than they are doing by simply training and I have seen good results in raising skill levels using both those ratios. At the least a few planes will get a few subs to duck under the water and not be able to get a shot a high value target now and then.

HansBolter -> RE: Japanese land in OZ!! (9/5/2014 8:38:57 PM)
Wirraways and Kingfishers I use for close in port defense. Hudsons, Blenny Is and Bolos provide the longer range coverage.

[:D] I think it's worth reminding everyone who is going to play PDU Off that there is this insanely frustrating drawback, right here. Units that get shot up or just don't start with very many planes are stuck with those 2 planes forever while you wait for your pools to build up. At least as the Allies. I've had Hobgoblin. I think I prefer it to Newcastle and some of the other pub beers you can get in the states at those places that only go halfway towards making a good English/Irish/Scottish pub/tavern type place. My home city has a really good one, though. They're all the way in Iowa and they have Fullers on tap, along with the standards and other more obscure ones. In Alexandra, VA, there's a really awesome Irish pub. Complete with live folk music. I wish they'd get better beer - I always end up ordering a Guinness because they've got that, Newcastle, a house ale (OK I order that one too), and then standard American fare: piss beer and IPAs. Boring.

Credit goes to Obvert, who I think showed how effective it can be against the author of this AAR.[:D] Short range planes set to naval search, low altitude. They can and will attack Subs eventually when their skill gets high, but the trick is to max detection levels and attack vectors. ASW+NavSearch plus night search plus a hunter killer group. Even a 2 plane squadron can search 2 hexes, the origination hex and one other with very little chance of crashing -- might want to hand pick the pilots for those to get high exp ones initially.

[:D] It might be worth withdrawing/disbanding some of those squadrons if you don't have enough planes in the pool. Good way to consolidate your aircraft into actually useful sized squadrons.

Set a squadron on ASW work and you will notice the search arcs are only 50 percent as long, because the search for submarines is much more intensive. You can search at half extended range too.

Re your comment about no USN VF's equipping with the F4U, thats what the Marines are for.... Other thought, If you withdraw a squadron early, do you get PP's or VP's, cant remember. I also see 27 P40E available for the Dutch, too late to rescue a squadron?

JocMeister -> RE: Japanese land in OZ!! (9/6/2014 5:06:10 AM)
Thanks for the advice on the ASW guys. I´ll try to sort something out. Can´t continue like this! [X(] JeffK, no dutch pilots! The ones I have are flying dutch CATs.

Wellington Naval battle! ______________________________________________________________________________ [X(] Did NOT see this coming. Pretty annoyed with "Ching" and his CAs right now...[:@] Although some of it is mt fault. I had detached 4 DDs from his force to hunt (make the sub shoot all its TTs) 2 subs sitting outside Wellington. Perfect timing on Toms part. 0% moonlight and apparently every allied radar set failed this night. So the battle started at 1000 yards...[:(] Could have ended much, much worse for me so I should be happy really. quote: Night Time Surface Combat, near Wellington at 112,191, Range 1,000 Yards Japanese Ships CL Sendai, Shell hits 1 CL Naka CL Jintsu, Shell hits 3, on fire DD Akigumo DD Kagero DD Kuroshio DD Oyashio DD Hatsukaze DD Natsushio DD Yukikaze, Shell hits 5, Torpedo hits 1, and is sunk Allied Ships CA Indianapolis CA Northampton CA Salt Lake City, Shell hits 1 CA Vincennes, Shell hits 8, Torpedo hits 2, on fire, heavy damage DD Dunlap, Shell hits 1 DD Fanning DD Case, Shell hits 5, heavy fires DD Conyngham, Shell hits 2 Luckily for me the Perth/Achilles TF saved the day or this would have been an embarrassing defeat... quote: Night Time Surface Combat, near Wellington at 112,191, Range 2,000 Yards Japanese aircraft no flights Japanese aircraft losses E7K2 Alf: 1 destroyed Japanese Ships CL Sendai, Shell hits 6, heavy fires, heavy damage CL Naka, Shell hits 3 CL Jintsu, Shell hits 21, and is sunk DD Akigumo, Shell hits 1 DD Kagero, Shell hits 5, heavy fires DD Kuroshio, Shell hits 1 DD Oyashio DD Hatsukaze, Shell hits 12, Torpedo hits 1, and is sunk DD Natsushio, Shell hits 1 Allied Ships CL Achilles, Shell hits 3 CL Perth, Shell hits 3 DD Woodworth, Shell hits 3 DD Jarvis, Shell hits 2 DD McCall, Shell hits 2 DD Benham, Shell hits 1, on fire DD Tucker, Shell hits 4 DD Litchfield, Shell hits 12, heavy fires, heavy damage The AI sadly cost me a bunch of DDs as it creates those lovely escort TFs...

Agree completely on the ASW . I get a satisfying number of reports of attacks and hits on subs with Wirraways of all things with the 40/40/20 split at 1000 feet. As for beer for witpae there can be only one. I had a nice pint of Spitfire last night 'downed all over Kent, just like the Luftwaffe'. A proper hoppy bitter. Harvey's Sussex Bes is my favourite though
