As Michael alluded to earlier, the starting aircraft production needs serious work as well as R&D. This is a realm that need serious work.

When I get my next turn from Jorge, I'll Post some screenshots and then we can talk about it.

Merchant Yards are very different. I am having a devil of a time on January 1944, with Sean, keeping any points at all. Have shut down nearly everything except Tanker construction. This experience makes me think that Merchie Yards might need some additional help. Not sure if it is worth it or not...I have more then enough ships in 1944 to move everything so the concern might be moot.

Thoughts???

I would not expand merchant yards. As you wrote, there are more than enough ships to do what they must. I would not even bother building the smallest 2-3 xAK classes coming down the pipeline.

Buy the way, the Kitakami class CL needs a look at the Torp numbers. Or is 40 correct for the number of torps it can fire???....GP

Twenty per side. She, Oi, and Kiso have that starting configuration. I took these early CLs and made three Training Cruisers so we don't need the Katori-Class and then the other three are TT-CLs.

Running Jorge's turn and then we shift to aircraft production and R&D.

Pending on how people like to play, we could change two Zero, 1 Jake, and 2 Oscar over to something else in production. Any thoughts here?

Going to bring up R&D next...

OK. LOTS of stuff here and several of you have commented on how to move forward on the IJN side.

CV-Based Fighters
A6M2---A7M1 (11/43 using Nakajima Ha-45)---A7M1a (5/44 using Naka Ha-45)---A7M2 (11/44 ENGINE CHANGE to Mitsu Ha-43)---A7M3 (4/45 using Mitsu Ha-43) is the Fighter line.

Pete--RUFE--Rex

Ground-Based Fighters
A6M2 Sen Baku

A6M3

The George-Line (normal to stock game)

Advanced Naval Fighter???

I think 1-2 Zero, 1 Oscar, 1-2 Jake, and 1 Topsy factories could be reassigned. Not sure about the 2 Zero as having 3 factories instead of two leads to a faster production buildup. I advise against reassigning more than that. Four factories of each fighter may be giving the player too much rope to hang himself with.

Air frame R&D is an art form that should be tailored to each player�s play style, I think. I would not touch much of it, if at all.

Just my 2 cents

My input for this will be based on my old thread on this issue from way back in 2016 when I was being a JFB.

https://www.matrixgames.com/forums/tm.asp?m=4138290

Just re-read the thread. Would like to convert some at start and R&D to 0 (5) factories for the following models:
IJN = J7W1 Shinden should have the two small Zero factories
IJA = Ki-83 should have two factories (1 Oscar and 1 Topsy). Keep each service doing work in their family only.

There are recommendations from various players whose opinions in this area I respect, but they differ outside of these two late war fighters.

I have a thought. Where does a Japanese player start? Remember I'm new to the Japanese side of things....GP

Done for a while. Anyone?

I decided to look at another aspect of things... at Japanese naval pilot starting experience and skill levels. I have not finished, but these are some of the things I found when comparing data from stock scenario 1 and BtSL scenario 78:

1. Carrier fighter pilots:

-- CV Akagi Kansen changed from Exp 75 Air 75 to Exp 69 Air 68 for a change of -6 / -7 on average.
-- CV Amagi Kansen changed from Exp 75 Air 72 to Exp 67 Air 66 for a change of -8 / -6 on average.
-- CV Hiryu Kansen changed from Exp 75 Air 75 to Exp 71 Air 69 for a change of -4 / -6 on average.
-- CV Soryu Kansen changed from Exp 75 Air 74 to Exp 66 Air 65 for a change of -9 / -9 on average.
-- CV Shokaku Kansen changed from Exp 70 Air 69 to Exp 63 Air 64 for a change of -7 / -5 on average.
-- CV Zuikaku Kansen changed from Exp 70 Air 71 to Exp 63 Air 63 for a change of -7 / -8 on average.
-- CVL Ryujo Kansen changed from Exp 65 Air 64 to Exp 62 Air 61 for a change of -3 / -3 on average.
-- CVL Zuiho Kansen changed from Exp 65 Air 64 to Exp 61 Air 60 for a change of -4 / -4 on average.
-- CVE Hosho Kansen changed from Exp 50 Air 56 to Exp 59 Air 64 for a change of +9 / +8 on average. THIS SHOULD BE LOOKED AT.

The following are compared to the average CVL Kansen in stock:

-- CVL Karasu Kansen changed from Exp 65 Air 64 to Exp 62 Air 62 for a change of -3 / -2 on average.
-- CVL Ryukaku Kansen changed from Exp 65 Air 64 to Exp 64 Air 64 for a change of -1 / -0 on average.
-- CAV Kushiro Kansen changed from Exp 65 Air 64 to Exp 58 Air 56 for a change of -7 / -6 on average.
-- CAV Tokachi Kansen changed from Exp 65 Air 64 to Exp 60 Air 58 for a change of -5 / -6 on average.

The following are compared to the only CVE Kansen in stock:

-- CVE Ibuki Kansen changed from Exp 50 Air 56 to Exp 59 Air 59 for a change of +9 / +3 on average. THIS SHOULD BE LOOKED AT.
-- CVE Taiyo Kansen changed from Exp 50 Air 56 to Exp 59 Air 58 for a change of +9 / +2 on average. THIS SHOULD BE LOOKED AT.

2. Carrier dive bomber pilots:

-- CV Akagi Kanbaku changed from Exp 75 NavB 74 to Exp 65 NavB 64 for a change of -10 / -10 on average.
-- CV Amagi Kanbaku changed from Exp 75 NavB 73 to Exp 68 NavB 67 for a change of -7 / -6 on average.
-- CV Hiryu Kanbaku changed from Exp 75 NavB 74 to Exp 65 NavB 66 for a change of -7 / -8 on average.
-- CV Soryu Kanbaku changed from Exp 75 NavB 73 to Exp 67 NavB 66 for a change of -8 / -7 on average.
-- CV Shokaku Kanbaku changed from Exp 70 NavB 68 to Exp 62 NavB 60 for a change of -8 / -8 on average.
-- CV Zuikaku Kanbaku changed from Exp 70 NavB 69 to Exp 64 NavB 63 for a change of -6 / -6 on average.

3. Torpedo bomber pilots:

-- CV Akagi Kanko changed from Exp 75 NavB 73 NavT 73 to Exp 66 NavB 66 NavT 65 for a change of -9 / -7 / -8 on average.
-- CV Amagi Kanko changed from Exp 75 NavB 72 NavT 74 to Exp 71 NavB 69 NavT 70 for a change of -4 / -3 / -4 on average.
-- CV Hiryu Kanko changed from Exp 75 NavB 75 NavT 74 to Exp 70 NavB 68 NavT 69 for a change of -5 / -7 / -5 on average.
-- CV Soryu Kanko changed from Exp 75 NavB 72 NavT 73 to Exp 69 NavB 69 NavT 68 for a change of -6 / -3 / -5 on average.
-- CV Shokaku Kanko changed from Exp 70 NavB 69 NavT 69 to Exp 65 NavB 65 NavT 64 for a change of -5 / -4 / -4 on average.
-- CV Zuikaku Kanko changed from Exp 70 NavB 69 NavT 69 to Exp 63 NavB 63 NavT 62 for a change of -8 / -6 / -7 on average.
-- CVL Ryujo Kanko changed from Exp 65 NavB 63 NavT 64 to Exp 60 NavB 60 NavT 58 for a change of -5 / -3 / -6 on average.
-- CVL Zuiho Kanko changed from Exp 65 NavB 63 NavT 64 to Exp 60 NavB 57 NavT 59 for a change of -5 / -6 / -5 on average.
-- CVE Hosho Kanko changed from Exp 50 NavB 48 NavT 49 to Exp 57 NavB 57 NavT 55 for a change of +7 / +9 / +6 on average. THIS SHOULD BE LOOKED AT.

The following are compared to the average CVL Kanko in stock:

-- CVL Karasu Kanko changed from Exp 65 NavB 63 NavT 64 to Exp 66 NavB 62 NavT 64 for a change of +1 / -1 / -0 on average. THIS SHOULD BE LOOKED AT.
-- CVL Ryukaku Kanko changed from Exp 65 NavB 63 NavT 64 to Exp 63 NavB 62 NavT 61 for a change of -2 / -1 / -3 on average.
-- CAV Kushiro Kanko changed from Exp 65 NavB 63 NavT 64 to Exp 61 NavB 61 NavT 60 for a change of -4 / -2 / -4 on average.
-- CAV Tokachi Kanko changed from Exp 65 NavB 63 NavT 64 to Exp 58 NavB 58 NavT 57 for a change of -7 / -5 / -7 on average.

The following are compared to the only CVE Kanko in stock:

-- CVE Ibuki Kanko changed from Exp 50 NavB 48 NavT 49 to Exp 57 NavB 57 NavT 54 for a change of +7 / +9 / +5 on average. THIS SHOULD BE LOOKED AT.
-- CVE Taiyo Kanko changed from Exp 50 NavB 48 NavT 49 to Exp 57 NavB 56 NavT 55 for a change of +7 / +8 / +6 on average. THIS SHOULD BE LOOKED AT.

I think the skill difference between BtSL and Stock should be between -5 and -10. It is mostly CVE and CVL air groups that do not fall in this range. Perhaps this should be twinked?

Just my 2 cents

GREAT work! You are correct in your assumption. I--literally--rolled a die for the percent decrease in the air groups. Well done.

Will lower the ones you mention as well.

Additionally have decided to have more older airframes in frontline units. You'll see some more Claude, Jean, and Mabel to reflect the absolute push to have Zero, Val, Kate in the frontline carrier force.

Am also planning to reduce the number of starting airframes with the 9th Air Fleet in Kyushu. Want to cut them by 50% or so. That unit begins the war at cadre strength, fills out, trains, and has to buy its aircraft. I want to see that massive unit deploy 4-6 months after the war begins. Needs to take time...

I think both ideas have merit. It brings the need to expando modern airframe production into the forefront, with all the headaches that come along with along with it.

This scenario is a balancing act, and as such it requires much work... but it is turning out quite nice :)
