I'd be interested to see the new repair system "in action". Could you make a "logbook" of a ship with heavy combat damage when it enters the repair yard?

Status: offline 		Apologies for the lac of posts, bith Cathartes and I have had a bad does of real worlditis.

27-28 Dec.
I begin unloading at Darwin. I have two Tf here, both with CA's and escort ships. During the unloading over the two days I loose 4 DD's and about 3 of the transports with CA's and transports also hurt. The big 9.2in guns cause some real problems! I get ashore though and the losses are acceptable. Half of KB joins in to help supress the defenders. Next time I'd include aome BB's to help deal with the big guns.

At Rabaul I get ashore largely unmolested.

Over the Phillipines I'm having trouble maintaining decent fighter levels agsinst the Clark CAP, so am loosing Zero's.

Over Singapore I'm slowly gaining the edge getting more aircraft on the ground. My losses in bombers are moderate, fighters are light.

Over Rangoon I tangle with 2 squadrons of the AVG, Cathartes has found my height so while the exchange rate is favourable, it isn't favourable enough for my liking!

In China I'm slowly advancing, almost time to reveal my plans and actions over the last month.

Cheers

Rob

Status: offline 		Here is progress in Malaya.

The key here is to keep your follow on forces in strat mode, while the first few regts and the armour carry the main battles. Advance hard and fast and if you can't tackle something flank it while the follow-on force move up. Troops in strat mode move very quickly from base to base that you own over the major road/rail network. So you can leave them back, and in one turn will cover 6+ hexes.

I'm using a lot of tac air to slow the enemy down and attrit them before they can get back to delaying positions.

Cheers

Rob

There are opportunities here for both sides. So far I've managed to generate enough force to advance, without exposing any weaknesses. While not much is at threat at the moment Cathartes needs to make some calls soon. I'll be looking for those and adjust my thrust axis as required :)

Oil and resources are steadily declining, even though I'm moving a lot of resources already. I need to go back and increase the convoys.

Looks like I also need to increase some engine development, in particular the Ha-32 and 33, and of course the Nakajima.

The HI stockpile is growing though.

Not a typo -- the field allows a maximum of 15 letters/spaces. We're accepting nominations for better alternative spellings:

"Rifle of Canada" (what, the battalion had but 1 rifle among them?)
"RR of Canada" (a rest and relaxation battalion?)
"Canadian Hosers"
"A Canada Bn, eh"

In WitP I managed 'Ryl Rifles of Canada'

Also, it looks like you can change the "Move" order from this screen, but not the "Combat" or "Target" order?

Nice feature. Would be even better if one could give the combat orders as well and preferably also for stacks outside a base.

Of course getting the baby out would have even higher priority...

Is anyone else out there wondering how on Earth a Japanese player is supposed to build enough engines given that there seems to be about 20 Engine types ?? ... I'm fully in favour of more choices and tough decisions, but isn't is difficult enough to repair at 1000 supply/per Engine Factory (and others too including Arm/Veh/Planes etc). I do hope that someone has tested this economic model sufficiently as I have yet to see a major thread on it (thanks to jrcar for doing this much) & we all know that supply can be a real issue for Japan...

I realise that all of this can be modded anyway -- I guess we will just have to trust in the test team and hope that the Japanese are not so stymied that they cannot compete longer than the first few weeks/months of the war & I hope I am not overstating it here.

Although I have plenty of other issues with the "pacification" iirc (from threads in this forum area) of the Japanese war machine and other issues mostly related to Stock but not necessarily AE(so far as I can tell), I applaud your efforts and in good faith hope that the model will be sound, while looking forward to the added challenges this game will bring.

Once again, thanks Jcar for enlightening an enthrawled public.

OK could be 'The RTR of C' Royal Touque Regt of Canada

I would abreviate Canada to 'Cda', prity much accepted I think

So 'R Rifles of Cda' (that's 15 I think)

Although 'A Cdn Bn, eh!' should work

I am not a JFB, more of a JWB (w=whipping). At the beginning of this AAR JRCAE did mention that he has played into late 1942 to check the economic part of AE for Japan. I dont have the experience to know if this is long enough. The few times I have played Japan I started running out of engines in late 42.

The group below Rifles of Canda has 30 letters/spaces. Winnipeg Grenadiers Battalion. I am confused. Easily confused in fact.

My experience in RHS is the Japanese economy goes off the rails in late 1942/early 1943. The initial cause is resources running out.
