Oops Karachi I meant Aden :)

No free supply at karachi I agree with.

China is the point that worries me about any game or mod. I dont want the Chinese to be an offensive force or a defensive liability for the allies perhaps the better solution is to increase the starting fort levels at an inner core of bases to make the Chinese have an inner citadel of bases that are almost impossible to take so that they cannot be totally elimanated.

But I persoanlly detest playing China so much that it may be colouring my judgement

Aden had a bit more than 150,000 tons of supplies at the time we called the game which is, I think, more than sufficient.

Not really 150k is low allied air power needs a LOT of supplies and that has to supply the whole of India/Burma - by Japanese standards its a lot by allied standards its about 1/3 what they would need for a defensive war.

De facto the 60k per month you are letting them have may just be enough in 42 but it will be totally insufficient in 43 or 44

I think you are incorrect in that this has to supply all of India and Burma. India and Burma have their own supply levels.

In essence the entire 4,000 Allied AV on the Indian mainland ( which included several Chinese and two US divisions) could be supplied from JUST Karachi's monthly supplies ( about 48,000 tons of supply)  without any additional supply being created in India or Burma. Taking into account JUST the supplies made in India you pretty much triple what Karachi makes so, I just don't see your point.

I'm open to having it proven to me but I just don't see how Karachi + India are insufficient. Sure you don't have the massive glut of supplies Allied players are used to but you still have more than enough. In any case I'll get a look at this from the Allied point of view in this next game. That's the benefit of playing something from both sides, I know how things look on the Japanese side but for true balancing I need to see what they are like on the Allied side.

Personally I think I can bog the Japanese down in Malaysia and DEI for a long time and avoid having to lose India. We'll see though.

I have been wondering this too ...no posts in recent months. Actually I have had a feeling that Nemo is now a.k.a Donnie_Texas_1974!!! ...allthough I might be wrong... but I bet he is still around.

Aztez, not at all. I took a break from the forum and the game for about 4 months and am now back. I would certainly not hide behind a pseudonym. If I wish to say something I will, at least, do people the honour of saying it to their face.... and now to update that AAR with Jagdfluger.

Mr Slaughter  Hmm, 500+ ships and 4,500 planes in under 40 days of combat in my current game, yeah, I'd go along with that ;).

Hiya VSWG, thanks for the welcome.

Aztez, no worries. Just wanted to be clear re: pseudonyms...
