<r> I am impressed as well, for in my reading I see that 29 of the attacking aircraft carried the modified torpedos, of which as many as 21 hit their targets.&nbsp; Since the AI has managed 35+ torpedo hits each attack in my 3 Dec 7 runs, I am duly impressed&nbsp; <E>:)</E><br/>

<t> It's a damned bloody business. First turn is absolutely crushing to the allies.&nbsp; 180 aircraft destroyed on the ground, another 11 shot down or lost to ops.&nbsp; <br/>
<br/>
Oklahoma, Arizona, Repulse and Prince of Wales sunk, along with 14 other assorted ships...<br/>

Now to plot ...

<t> I have a 64 bit machine and a 32 bit one running vista.&nbsp; The 64 bit doesn't like to run the modselect utility.&nbsp; What I did is a full regular game install on the 64 bit machine; then copied the entire game setup (including all CHS stuff - basically my entire WITP folder) from my 32 bit ...

<t> mdiehl I believe that everything is unrealistic to you within this game unless it involves the Allies steamrolling the Axis at virtually every turn.<br/>

There are four different fighter bases involved here. Pardon me for not consulting a realism coach in deciding where or how to base my ...

<r> We know this game handles air to air battles in a bloody manner.&nbsp; Using unescorted bombers in the face of significant fighter opposition is a way to lose a lot of bombers.<br/>
<br/>
In this case, Tom attacked this base the previous day.&nbsp; Because I have found him to be predictable, I ...

<t> As japanese I like to take about half of my subs and form them into mega mining task forces.&nbsp; 30 subs, including all dedicated minelaying subs, will drop a lot of eggs in a hex.<br/>

Here's what is amazing.&nbsp; My desktop is AMD64 X2 4600+, 4 GB Ram, dual nvidia 7900GS SLI cards... my new $700 Toshiba laptop SMOKES it in terms of starting and running WITP.&nbsp; Drives me crazy.

Actually you were knocking out 15-20 a day until I evacuated the base. Went down to 4-6 because the damaged ...

Przemcio - fire bombing of an area target at night from 30,000+ feet (a la B29's over Japan) versus 100 B24's hitting a pinpoint airbase at 7K feet are two differnt animals, in my opinion.

Anyone?&nbsp; The game doesn't have to be CHS.&nbsp; Can be the stock version of the 42 campaign as well.

No worries caliban.  In April of 07 my wife had a ruptured aneurysm and stroke.  I dropped every game I had going, including several WITP games.

Best of luck to you.

Still open, haven't heard from Caliban.

Game still open...

<t> I'm looking for an opponent for the CHS or Stock version of the 42A campaign. This campaign begins in May 1942 with the Japanese at their historical high water mark and continues throughout the rest of the game as WITP normally does.<br/>

I am currently playing 2 of the the CHS version ...

Well in my opinion the early appearance of the Tony certainly helps alleviate the emasculation of the Oscar in this game.&nbsp;
