Hi all,
REPOST Excerpt

Description:
I created brand new custom scenario for this testing.
This scenarios are "Leo TEST Scenario #116.zip" (for day) and "Leo TEST Scenario #117.zip" (for night) - you can find them here:
http://www.matrixgames.com/default.asp?URL=http%3A//www.matrixgames.com/forums/tm.asp%3Fm%3D856273
There are only 3 islands present: Marcus Island, Wake Island and Midway. Marcus Island is IJN base while Midway is USN base. For this test Wake Island is made Japanese base with both Port and Airbase (and SPS) of 6.
There are 6 Japanese LCU's (1x 1st Army HQ + 5x AA Rgt) at Wake Island together with ships in port.
Weather is always clear.
FoW is OFF.
Two B-29's groups have their default leaders (50's/60's ratings) while their EXP is set to 70 and morale to 90.
The B-29's have to fly 14 HEXes from Midway to Wake Island.
The B-29's attack from 10000ft.
In Japanese held port there are 10x AO, 10x TK and 30x AP ships (all sizes and shapes).
5 consecutive runs of scenario in day (i.e. daytime bombings):

Discussion:
The devastation of ships in port is enormous... it's like shooting duck in a bathtub.. the only (possibly) good thing is that night time attack produced "only" 3 hits...
Note that Japanese AAA units consist of:
Heavy AA Rgt (5 units used):
105mm AA Gun x12
75mm AA Gun x12
13 mm AAMG (2) x 8
Thus there were (in total):
105mm AA Gun x60
75mm AA Gun x60
13 mm AAMG (2) x40
This is _TREMENDOUS_ number of muzzle power and large and relatively slow bombers flying at 10000 ft (= 3000 m = 3 km) should be easy easy targets...
