An Administration skill of 36 will slow the recovery of disabled squads. The leader is a great fighter with 68 Aggression and 72 Land Combat, but weak on looking after the daily needs of his troops.

The damaged Tsuta eats a torpedo. She was hanging out at Santa Ana putting the small fires out before disbanding to port... Although, she is still alive, for now... [image]local://upfiles/44178/4FEA7411A176406CA61A5B09E8A153E4.jpg[/image]

The Americans don't attack....[X(] I figured I had a chance that the Americans would really juggle their fighter pilots and I suspect this is the case and it takes up to a week to get the squadrons straightened out and set up. Over at Chungking, we continue to hammer the Chinese. [image]local://upfiles/44178/664CE155A43A45C4A3B85EA92ADD2F07.jpg[/image]

Goat Island cleared...costly mistake there...but we won't let it get us down. Only one IJN bombardment TF went in...the others dithered. Ops points from reloading perhaps? 2nd Tank is now dug in at LA...more heavy artillery arrived to bolster the defense along with some more AA. Should get two more infantry divisions and they will be good to go. Focus now San Diego... [image]local://upfiles/44178/9E367E6D931C4E9883A209F9A78398A5.jpg[/image] Perhaps some LRCAP at San Diego?

I have my first Frank A factory at 29(1). I need this plane! Sent the replay to Jocke...won't finish the turn till this evening. Three full, fresh squadrons of Tojo IIb in California! I have enough planes to upgrade the Oscar IIb there to IIIa should I so desire it. I could upgrade them, and then rail them to Pendleton and have them up in the air in three days...not sure about that.

Lokasenna -> RE: Manila Falls (7/6/2016 3:58:51 PM)
LRCAP won't intercept transport planes, but CAP will (you will need to set it to "leak"). At least that's my experience. I was flying LRCAP over Chungking from Neikiang for years against Bullwinkle, only to find out when it fell that he'd been flying supplies in every day. Not once did a plane get intercepted, and they're only 2 hexes apart. If I'd been flying leaky CAP, my understanding is that they would have been periodically intercepted (I was using Tojos). Also, San Diego is not an uncommon spawn point for US units. They could just be spawning.

I seem to remember during those bug discussions that the bug was a bit masked by the fact that altitude matters insofar as (for example) people with LRCAP at 15,000 ft have a harder time intercepting low flying transport planes.

Lowpe -> RE: Manila Falls (7/6/2016 5:52:20 PM)
I did have low bleeding CAP over San Diego...not a terribly large amount, but enough to catch some Transports I think.

It was over a year ago now in game time, so I don't remember. I do remember adjusting the altitude at least one time, probably somewhere between 10K and 20K. I know that transports default to 6K and there's no real reason to ever change that. Anyhow, CAP with a range will do the job better than LRCAP. LRCAP seems to only respond to raids... maybe if you have a range set on your LRCAP also.

I however, almost all the time limit my LRCAP to 0 range. A fresh unit arriving sounds most likely, but you never know what the Allies will do![;)] PS: I do know, first hand, that if you keep flying supplies/troops into a base that just switched hands the day before (you lost it), and the enemy puts up some CAP it can be quite painful for your transports.

I have had LRCAP nail transports since the changes Michael made. CAP is probably better at everything than LRCAP is, but at least it works.

If you were between 10k-20k, there is a high chance you just never got to them at 2k. in a real world sense it's silly both ways. Fighters could generally search and destroy in the air or on the ground, and transports could (and did in the war) arrange their arrival at forward bases to be after dark. But this is a game, so throw some LR CAP in at 5k.

They were set that way for...Idunno, what was it Moose? A year? To never intercept a single flight out of thousands with those settings... meanwhile, I've intercepted transport planes in other games with regular CAP (not LRCAP) and range settings since then. It rarely comes up, but it can be really important when you actually want to stop the planes from flying. YMMV, just stating my experience with it. By sweeping around the edges, you were catching CAP that was set to leak (i.e., with a range). It could've been LRCAP, sure, but I'm pretty sure Jocke was using standard CAP with a range setting there after he read up on how transports were supposed to be intercepted.

Lowpe -> RE: Manila Falls (7/7/2016 1:22:17 PM)
So, I have been pondering about these fleets... My sub pickets had been out, but were in the process of refueling...but I don't have any eyes behind the lead three task forces here. Part of me is glad that they are here and not steaming for a climatic battle off the West Coast. [image]local://upfiles/44178/DC2AC6094A1842778AB0B0279F4CEDFE.jpg[/image] I am thinking of sending out a small task force of destroyers under a heavy LRCAP. I dunno, the other part of me says hide my surface ships in ports to counterattack a landing. But I need information, so I am leaning with sending out a smallish task force.

Jan 18, 1943 Here he comes! In the air over Santa Ana the Jugs come after several Warhawk sweeps and really clean up. For whatever reason, my low CAP tries to climb to 20,000+ and really gets destroyed by three squadrons of Jugs, that have no doubt the best pilots Jocke can throw at me. I will alternate back up to a high cap tomorrow I think. [image]local://upfiles/44178/563E615ECCCF4125A22B89CA9D4B8D13.jpg[/image]
