RE: No lex or E - and it's 1941!

<t> I am Japanese player in a PBeM game and we just played Dec 31, 1941 turn... <br/>
<br/>
I sank Lexington on Dec 19, and Enterprise on Dec 21 (both were in same TF trying a daring attack near PI). Both PoW and Repulse battleships were send to sea bottom in next days, and I just managed to sunk ...

RE: Jap Carriers

<r> Be forewarned : speeding up availability date of carriers could have a very negative effect on overall jap production : this will consume a lot of Shipyard points and you have not enough at start, even without changing anything... <br/>

RE: Dec 22, 1941 : curious to know where I am standing...

<t> Yes, I guess my opponent was a bit daring and send the two carriers near PI to attack transport TFs that were doing unloading troops near Naga... KB was too far to intercept but I did have Air Combat TFs with CVE/CVL near, and also some Bettys and Zeros based at Laoag... So even if he managed to ...

Dec 22, 1941 : curious to know where I am standing...

<r> Hi all,<br/>
<br/>
I am playing my first PBeM game as Japanese in scen 15 (Hi Martin [:)]) and we have reached two weeks duration (December 22, 1941).<br/>

I am wondering about my pace of operations compared to average players, so I would be interested to hear about achievements or at ...

Dec 8th, 1941 : Pearl Harbor revenge already ? (combat report)

<r> Hi all,<br/>
<br/>
as told in a previous post yesterday, I am starting a PBeM scen 15 as Japanese (while I am here, hello to my US opponent, Martin).<br/>

ALL my Dive bombers failed to load Torpedos for Pearl Harbor attack, leaving BBs with very small damage (bombs only)...<br/>

RE: No Torpedo used by Jap Torp Bombers ???

Thanks for the quick answer guys.

And Yes, I saw that lucky attack a few days ago resulting in all BBs sunk... Well, I can live with such 'bad luck', if it means I get better luck on my first attack against US carriers [:D]

No Torpedo used by Jap Torp Bombers ???

<t> Hi all,<br/>
<br/>
I just watched the combat report of Dec 7, 1941 Turn in PBeM against my opponent (Hi Martin [:)] ), and am quite sad to notice that all my Torpedo Bombers attacking PH have used BOMBS instead of torpedoes, resulting in quite low damage to BBs [:@]<br/>

-- Cancelling my proposal : I just received a reply for another game, and I do not think I can start two at same time.

Question about Engine Factories

<t> Hi all,<br/>

I am still working on the many aspects of Japanese production, and am puzzled to see that several engine types are not used by any plane on the Japanese side : Ishikawajima, Mansyu, Nissan, Kokusai, Toyoda are not used by planes, so what's the point of putting them in the ...

Thanks guys, it's quite clear now.... I just need to be able to manage all that by myself now [:D] I guess that using a few Excel tables with a monthly management goal should be doable...

So if I understand well, I am generating 13230 HIP and I have a pool of 20000 HIP... So I just need to check a few days of production to see if my pool is increasing or decreasing and see if I need to adjust some production numbers.. Right ?<br/>
