You know, walking into the kitchen, stopping in the middle of it, thinking what was it now I came out here for?

So you should be ok in 4 or 5 years ;)

Re: Zero PP each turn

It went from Pearl to SF without gaining much. I could get it near Truk and let the Bettys take care of it but getting it near will take almost as much time.
try that

Set to Critical repair, it will take 71 days. I think I can get it down to under 50 and withdraw it. With bad rolls, it should ...

Re: Zero PP each turn

Now I understand. The total damage was less than 99. But Flotation was 76 {76 Major}. Oops. I should've sent it to Truk instead and let the Japanese sink it. It is going to be 71 days of reduced political points. Ouch.

Re: Zero PP each turn

Mine is overdue. Maybe that is it. It's in the 3 day time from Shipyard to Readiness. Could Overdue status muck up the works? Either way, I guess it's -20 for more three days. It wouldn't have been a problem if it hadn't hit that reef.

Rear Admiral Dunce is on his way back to Kodiak. This time he has been given a seal skin jacket.

There is no button next to Withdraw Ship OVERDUE on ship window. A couple more days...

Re: Zero PP each turn

Yeah! Tasker H. Bliss made it to San Francisco...

...and some idiot put her in the SHIPYARD FOR REPAIRS!!! 3 more days of -20 PPs.

The idiot was reassigned to Kodiak Island as the Bear Abatement Officer. He has been assigned a pocketknife for the performance of his duties.

Re: Zero PP each turn

btd64 is right. You can easily find withdrawing air units on the information? screen. There will be a button to check for withdrawing air units and you can sort the list by date of withdrawal. The good news on these is that they can be withdrawn from anywhere.

Ships, not so much. You're limited in ...

Re: OT: Real Life Connections to War in the Pacific

My father-in-law was on a plane for Australia when the war ended. He stayed in and eventually became a Lt Col. He was originally a pilot and then switched to something to do with electronics before retiring.

A weekend neighbor {my parents had a house on the coast that we went to on weekends} flew ...

Re: Kull's Set up.... General question

I find it helps to develop a routine pathway in checking bases. I also make notes during a turn for things that need to be checked and do them first before going through my pathway.

I have done this pathway of checks for many years now and I still forget things! Seems to be happening more often as ...

Re: AE vs AKE


I was under the impression that maller AEs (the Japs can make a lot of them) can't resupply large caliber guns (BB) due to their limited cargo/ammo capacity, do I have that wrong or is cargo size on the AE a factor to consider?

That is my memory. It was related to cargo capacity for how much ...

Re: AE vs AKE


An AKE can rearm CV'S, including torpedoes. AE'S can not do that. At sea replenishment can occur 1.1.1945 and after. However both ship types can rearm CV'S and Battleships at any base. Must be loaded with supplies....GP

I think the very first time I played it took 12 hours. Allies with historical first turn.

I think I am down to 4-5 hours now.

Bastard File. There's a memory. My Dad owned a body shop and I started sanding cars when I was 5. He had quite a few bastard files. He said that he had used to save money, on his cars, when the fan belt would begin slipping by carefully using a bastard file on the belt...while the engine was running ...

Thank You!

That is what I thought.

Repulse is currently in Cape Town and I had a brief "Oh Crap" moment before checking that it was only major damage.

Shipyard repair question

Given the ship fits in both Repair Shipyards, will a ship in Shipyard Repair mode repair faster at a port with a larger Port Size? For instance, would a ship repair faster at San Francisco than Alameda?

What I've read would indicate it does not. It also seems that the size of the shipyard does not ...

Re: Have not come across this yet.

I think it put itself in it. I don't remember doing it, but I am old. The fires came later when the port was bombed.

I wonder which is on fire. The Dewey being repaired or the Dewey repairing the Dewey.
