here you can see Englanders plan - a "bold" naval strike behind frontlines.... Why i'm saying "bold"... because Englander knows that he doesnt be afraid of Italian Navy and that I don't have torpedo bomber... very brave, Speedy, very brave... just to be sure, he sent navy under the cover of bad weather....phew!

Anyway, i'm going to Speedy! Rommel rules!

But as for no torpedo bombers: true, there were no German ones in early 1942, but I would have thought there were Italian ones. Weren't the SM79's torpedo-capable?

The point being that Pauk has them if he's willing to use them. (And I personally would rather have SM 79's than Albacores -- longer range is a Good Thing.)

Maybe even the ME109t (which with some "small" modifications in design and a bigger engine could have carreid four (4) torpedoes) and a pizza oven.

Yes, in my first version only the S-79T (italian) and Beaufort (british) can carry torpedoes. (land based of course)
But in the 1.1 version the situation is very different, now the Beaufighter X (british) and SM84 (italian) can also carry torpedoes.
In the upcoming (i hope) 1.2 version, the He-111 (german) and some of the Wellington III groups will carry too.
No more placid walkings with TFs around Bomb Alley.

Status: offline 		I'm not sure thats a good idea, having seen the effect of torpedo proliferation in WitP. For the usual reasons, the Japanese side gets focused on with this issue but it was also present on the Allied side in the form of the Beufort......it had a high enough production rate Allied players could massacre shipping around forward areas far more quickly than the RL timescale. I ended up severely restricting the torp Beufort varient in NM versions to cut down on this.

I think having too many torp equipped planes in the Med scen would be even worse because unlike RL, air search and attack with airpower is so much more efficient. Warships and merchants won't be able to operate anywhere near the hot spots.

As Pauk says the RN rule and RM sucks

I have ordered both my BB TF's interesting assignments tomorrow - 1 to  shell a base on Crete which  is housing damaged ships from our first naval battle and the other to shell enemy troops at Tobruk.

Tobruk will fall soon I think and with it this campaign version will end since only a battered Bde and Division will stand between the Axis and Egypt then.

Status: offline 		I'm kinda struggling with some of the complaints about the speed of the axis advance in NA. Isn't that basically what happened? Given enough supplies (which I'll get to in a min) Rommel seemed to be able to root the Brits out of any position they put themselves into. Everything I've ever read suggested that the only thing that ever stopped Rommel before 10/42 was a shortage of supplies and/or tanks.

If there was a flaw with the combat model, I'd say it would be the complete inability to disengage, say a "trave" versus "attack" speed of movement. This would allow the British to retreat, and "prepare positions while the Axis resupplies.

Regarding supplies, I am under the impression that Malta and British subs were the major obstacles to the Axis getting the level of supplies required to sustain operations. Given that there was no will to "deal with" Malta appropriately by Hitler, i.e., invade, then Malta should be a major thorn in the side of the Axis. Maybe there needs to be a resource point there, and maybe the Italians just need fewer planes...I'm not sure from this perspective.

Hi,

Always good to have discussion.

I agree with you in that the main Axis problem when they had the initiative in NA was the lack of supply and fuel caused by Allied efforts and Italian inneficiency.

However in game terms this is just not the case.

For example in 2 weeks (15th January 1942) game time the Axis are at Tobruk with only a 1/2 organised Bde and Division in front of them to Egypt. The ability to shock attack incessantly and the poor ground modelling (IMO) mean a Blitzkreig of un-approachable proportions can be made by the Axis.

Also as you mention supply and fuel can easily be sent to NA in quantities Rommel would've dreamed of

Can this be solved simply with a HR of no more than 1 Shock attack per x days?

Can the decay rate of supplies and/or the cost of moving it overland be modded? IIRC, Rommel complained incessantly that the cost of moving the fuel by road was almost not worth the effort. Maybe by altering the decay rate, the extended lines of supply can be more accurately emulated.

Status: offline 		Fremen - a couple of thoughts on changes in case you haven't made the malready:

1. The range of the Catalina is nerfed. As in it has the WiTP range and has not been adjusted to 30 mile hex range.

2. The Industry of England seems woefully low. Taranto (Italy) has the same Industry (roughly) as England by the looks of it!
