In the air my phase 1 research programme is now complete and a significant number of factories are in production

The following aircraft are now in production

G8 Rita
Ki 44IIb (cannon version)
Ki 44IId (air superiority)
A6M8 Zero
Ki 43 Oscar IV

My research albeit at slower pace is switching to other types

OK this is my first and last mod game bloody hell where to begin

We have had to nerf the G8 bomber again after it achieved 12:1 kill ratio against allied fighter.....so we have nerfed all Japanese 4E to the stone age because they are just too unbalanced not to mention the Emily with 4 Torps and 2 armour rating Japan has too many wonder weapons.

The problem is because the previous Japanese Admiral had committed so much of his production to researching these and other aircraft I was extremely short of Sally Betty and Lily bombers during the vital Feb - May opening stage and my decision to leave Burma to now was based on the fact that I would have a "wonder weapon" to bomb the allies into oblivion and force them back - which now I wont have.

I had just begun to win in China because of my ability to destroy supply with this aircraft so just as things are turning we both agree this aircraft and others are fundamentally broken and even I cannot argue that a bomber that shoots down 12:1 v cannon armed fighter aircraft is balanced an unescorted raid lost 5 bombers for 60 fighters all with decent pilots.

So once again we have to open the genie and edit the scenario for a game in progress - something I fundamentally disagree with but feel we have no choice at this point. What a total mess - AVOID MODS unless you are sure they have been tested because this has been a monumental pain in the neck.

So my engine and aircraft production is totally wrong now for the aircraft I actually need to keep going so we are making 2 changes

1. He will evacuate Burma to historic perimeter and its his choice is he wants to do the same in China - I will stand down for 6 months in this theatre after occupying the historic perimeter.
2. He is giving me 3m supply in HI to allow me to reconfig production - its about 1/3 of what I would need but I will still get value out of the 4E I am left with albeit not as war winners

While we are opening up the scenario we are making other bug fixes and amendments which I didnt want to do but hard to argue when we are opening up the scneario again and most of the fixes are just that bug fixes.

Never again - no untested mods

I totally get it.

I have been working on my mod for quite a long time. I still find bugs.

In the midst of updating the AI ... I will send you the files when I finish as it should, should be compatible with your Nasty, Nasty version. I've added quite a bit, fixed a few typos, etc.

Dont get me wrong I have made up some seriously nasty and wonder weapons for the Ironman Scens but they were designed for the AI to use.

A player will build strategies and go for edges the AI cannot use.

Especially on the Japanese side where production is controlled.

Having the G8 Rita with those stats avaailable to be researched by late May 42 was insane - it was faster than 90% of allied fighters, started with 2 armour and had enough defensive Cannon to shoot down enemy fighters at 12:1 - and had 20 x 250kg bombs

No wonder I researched the hell out of it its a war winner.

Nerf 1 reduce armour to 1
Nerf 2 reduce speed to sub 300 and reduce bombload
Nerf 3 lets just make it a copy of the B24D - the fact that its being NERFED to be a copy of the b24D says it all......

This is one excample but there are many others.

v AI this plane is more than reasonable as the AI will get it mid 44 and not over use it

v Player its a game breaker

I hadnt realised how good it was until I used it over a period of time - if this was the only example I wouldnt mind French DD's guns are way too good, Emily is a flying killing machine and there are others !!!

It has been a fun game and probably still will be but I really really wish I had discussed the wonder weapons I was researching before I committed to them quite as much as I did I really dislike messing about with Scens after they have started but in this case we had no choice

Really, I hadn't noticed.

I still have nightmares about the Texas. And don't even get me started about those Dorniers you cooked up!

It seems you were channeling Prime Minister Stanely Baldwin when he stated in 1932, "The bomber will always get through." You just made it happen with the G8 on steriods.

Those B-19s are evil: they have an insane range that enables them to penetrate deep into your territory. I played this mod as the Allies against the AI (even with all the extras I still proved terribly incompetent) and the good news is that the B-19 production is limited and IIRC, they have a high service rating.

I havent posted in this AAR in a while and I have to confess I am weary of this mod

Evoken concentrates like a demon and sweeps all of the time he had 5,000 Aircraft at Sydney and the same at Calcutta

I spread out and he concentrates and the sheer number of allied 4E bombers he sweeps me 3 or 4 times then the heavies come in and my base is gone and hundreds of aircraft are destroyed.

He has just dumped 3,000 AV and half the allied AA arty onto Lahaina where I had a regiment dug in wiped that out in a day and has huge numbers of seabees building the base into a massive fortress and is somehow shipping in massive numbers of fighters

This is my 1st Japanese game and I wont quit but its pretty depressing pool depths are too strong for allies and there are far far too many LR Aircraft in the mod and the 4E's all round need to be totally neutered he keeps saying I have air superiority but I dont see it his fighters crucify my 4E my fighters cannot stop his even though after many nerfs we have the same basic 4E.

I am going to send my full fleet into try and defend Hawaii but I expect a massacre even though I have 1,500 carrier aircraft and a strong surface fleet.

I guess I am just fed up with this mod - it has simply too much of everything and too many wonder weapons for both sides

I ended up putting 3,000 aircraft into Rangoon because its the only way to compete but its not fun my original plan was based on dispersal and hehit each one in turn so I ended up having to concentrate to survive.

Anyway this thread was only so folks could ask me about events they see int he other AAR you are about to see a whopper of a carrier clash because I will not abandon Hawaii

Not sure what to say about today I pushed KB in range then sent 70 Surface Warships into Pearl

I made it in so thats ok but I was really angry at how many PT boat TF's he had - not because they they are effectvie but because they drain ops points and ammo - as it happened no harm no foul but seriously thaqts a massive PT Boat Armada

1 or 2 TF's no issue but sooo many just crazy and all they do is soak up my ammo for when his real warships get involved

My carriers are retiring to fill up with the second wave of fighters and bombers and met up witht eh other half of my surface fleet

We have a HR no less than 6 ships in a SCTF (unless you have less than 6)

I would normally have 8 - 10 in each TF but in this game I need to min max and match what the allies will do and I hate playing min/max this mod is just too crazy

My opponent of long standing and my HR for PT boats is no more than 1 squadron (6), per port level. I assume PH is port level 9 or 10 so that would be a total of 9 or 10 squadrons and 54 to 60 PT boats.

My opponent did nothing wrong we had no HR on the subject

In my 1st ever game my opponent and I agreed to no more than 1 - 2 PT TF's as per historical deployment max in a base and I have always stuck to it.

This is a blindspot on my part nothing my opponent did wrong

The issue isnt the damage they do its the ammo they use and the ops points but especially the ammo - to see a 14" shell hit a PT Boat and then later seeing the same TF out of ammo getting mauled when the real TF turns up just hurts

Yes that is the rub about the HR for PT boats squadrons or a total of 6 PT boats times port level, it stops have having that happen the majority of time. However, no HR against it then all is fair in love and digital war.
