ghoward -> carrier reconnaissance (4/29/2019 10:02:47 PM)

how do you recon with carrier based air? The manual says left click on the unit then left click on the targeted hex (pg83). But this moves the carrier, I want to send a strike to an empty hex to see if anyone is there. An example of this can be found in the 42 high tide scenario with the Japanese fleet approaching midway. Can yoou use your airplanes to find out what is in front of you?
Thanks

Hi

Yes, this option is listed in the Hotkeys, and you can see these from one of the buttons at the top right of the screen while playing the game.

Well, you can call me stupid! I still can't see the option for a carrier to do recon?

It is the "shift" key. First, select the carrier. Second, move the mouse pointer to an empty hex within their air range. Then press the "shift" key just once, the pointer should change to a red circle.Then left click and the planes should fly there.

Thanks. I sure couldn't find that anywhere!

Apparently this doesn't work with War in Europe?

Hi Toby

I think it should as the same functionality in this respect exists in both games. If someone has told you otherwise please ask them to let us know if it isn't working for them.

It works fine in World at War, but it doesn't work for me with War in Europe?

I just tested this on War in Europe, and it is working for me. I'm not sure why it won't for you. Try again.

The naval mods give you a range 8 hexes in all directions at end of turn plus extended range for your two manual searches.

Could we make it so carrion recon does not consume supply?
