ORIGINAL: Admiral DadMan Nevada and Pennsylvania rebuilds ok. Tennessee and California rebuilds started started in July 42, not Jan 43 TENNESSEE: Toppan, Andrew, with Jewell, Larry W. Dictionary of American Naval Fighting Ships, Vol. VII, pp. 88-100 CALIFORNIA: Toppan, Andrew, with Jewell, Larry W. Dictionary of American Naval Fighting Ships, Vol. II, pp. 14-15 Maryland 5"/38 rebuild started in May 45 for 90 days, not 270 MARYLAND: Toppan, Andrew, with Jewell, Larry W. Dictionary of American Naval Fighting Ships, Vol. IV, pp. 257-259 West Virginia 5"/38 rebuild started June 43 until June 44, but that time included hull repair. Currently she morphs into the Maryland tree, and doesn't get upgrade until 1945. WEST VIRGINIA: Toppan, Andrew, with Jewell, Larry W. Dictionary of American Naval Fighting Ships, Vol. VIII, pp. 222-227. I'm of the opinion that Colorado, Maryland, and West Virginia should have an option to start rebuilding no later than Oct 42 (much like the Tennessee class) with a maximum of 120-180 days to rebuild Q1: In game terms, is this merely a case of moving the upgrade dates or do changes need to be made to the upgrades themsevles? Q2: Does the WV deserve a "class" of it's own in light of it's upgrade? Q3: Was the WV hull repair due to operational damage or a deliberate decision to modify the design of the ship? If the former, how long should the rebuild take, assuming no damage to be repaired. quote:

ORIGINAL: Admiral DadMan My bad on PoW and Repulse. Thought I read that they were in Colombo on 2 Dec and didn't reach Singapore until 8 Dec. Now I can't find the source (figures). I did find this - http://www.microworks.net/pacific/personal/pow_repulse.htm I cannot vouch for the validity, but it seems that the PoW and Repulse arrived in Singapore on the 2nd. The Japanese spotted them there on the 3rd. quote:
I'm working on specifics on the USN BB rebuilds. That would be fantastic. warspite1 Yes, Force Z arrived on the afternoon of the 2nd. HMS Repulse then sailed on the 5th for Australia with the destroyers Vampire and Tenedos but was recalled in view of the worsening situation and returned to Singapore on the 7th. Thanks for the clarification. On Dec 7th they were in Singers. In Singers they shall stay. quote:
ORIGINAL: pontiouspilot Sorry for being slightly off topic but based on existing 1 or 2, the scenario I would love to see (I have zero ability to create myself!!)would involve the Japanese ability to attack non-USA until they choose otherwise. The US would be able to move assets (I suppose) but could only themselves enter the war based on random events ie. x percentage if Soviets attacked, x percentage each turn after Sing falls, x percentage each turn if DEI key cities fall, x percentage if Aust mainland attacked....etc, etc. This is based on what I take to be the fairly low chance of USA declaring war without first being attacked in Pearl or Philippines. This would also allow for the rationalization of the Japanese war strategy in a more global sense. Interesting idea. The only problem is that it's waaaaaay beyond the scope of what we're trying to do here. I don't even know if what you suggest is even possible without extensive modification to the game.
