Yeah, I also wouldn't worry about HK too much. The base is most important in 12/41, but rarely gets much attention after that.



I completely disagree with that statement.

HK is a level 9 port, with a useful shipyard. It is the crux of the allied overland drive that liberates Malaya/Indochine/southeast China in 1943-early 44. Supplied by rail and primary road all the way up the Asian littoral magic highway from Singapore, it becomes the Allied base driving the sea-air control campaign into the China Sea, where the Asian littoral strategy is prioritised.

Have you never seen that strategy employed?

Hmmm, I personally have not employed that strategy before.
Also I haven't seen it deployed in the AARs that I had read. (At least I can't remember)
Seems like I have missed that one until now.

Reading about it does make it sound like a good strategy though.
I stand corrected that it can get a lot of attention later on.

My current thinking is not to change the way the map and map data represents Hong Kong. One possible way to tilt the difficulty of taking HK is to bump up the fort level.



Andrew Brown -> RE: A map update (2/1/2022 9:08:01 AM)

Since another map error was reported I have updated the map data again.

Here is the change:

Update 2022-01-28: I have uploaded a newer version of this map update, which now includes the following new fixes:

  • The map data for the road leading west from Kendari has been added in hex 70,106 to match the map art.


The updated map is available at this website:

Hong Kong has gotten heavy attention and use in all my games...

The presence of rivers can make cd guns and mines ineffective depending how it is done.

During the Allied advance, right? I agree.

Also wanted to say thank you for your continued support of this game Andrew! Your continued updates make using any other maps obsolete at this point! Cheers!

No. Not yet.



Andrew Brown -> RE: A map update (2/5/2022 9:57:42 AM)

I missed a map error previously reported by HansBolter. I have now added a fix for that as well. The fix is only in the map data.

Here is the change:

Update 2022-02-04: I have uploaded a newer version of this map update, which now includes the following new fixes:

  • Phantom river hexsides removed from the E and SE sides of hex 62,55 (near Luangprabang).
