ORIGINAL: James Taylor Sorry Al, we'll have to disagree about this statement and you know there are many examples in the Pacific that puts this on the path of being not realistic. quote:
In truth both sides knew generally where everything was. They just didn't know amounts and values. Only educated guesses. Not exact numbers but they had an idea of what was out there. Codebreaking is assumed in FOW here OK, I'll give you that, but misinterpretation is always a part of the human condition. Its probably not so much the numbers but the location. Sure, the Kido Butai was running around somewhere in the Indian Ocean or the Pacific or even in the South China Sea, but the exact locations represented by the counters is nothing but a deflection from reality. I'm not sure what the answer is, could be decoys, maybe an association of transparent counters in the general area with "?" marks is all your opponents sees. Anyway this is not so much an issue with land based units but in the open ocean, something else would be beneficial to the game mechanics.
