Floatation is a variant of flotation:<br ...

It's also available from NWS Games:

I've used them in the past, and been very happy with their service.

Make sure the netbook supports 1024 x 768 resolution.&nbsp; Otherwise, it won't run AE.&nbsp;

I have an Asus EEE netbook with native 1024 x 600, and I have to mess with old video drivers to get it to display a squished 1024x768.&nbsp; AE does run on it though.

If the patch will enable scaling up to widescreen, will it also enable scaling down to, say, 1024x600, like for some netbooks?

Why would an inland base with a lot of aircrafts have a large tank farm to store ship fuel? Fuel is not used by aircrafts, transported by them or stored in airports.<br/>

<r> Airfield and port size are the only two parameters that relate directly to the logistical capabilities of a base. One might reasonably expect that an inland base (zero port size) capable of supporting a lot of aircraft (large airfield size) would be a large base with facilities enough to store a ...

But the fact is that historically, they probably could move. If, e.g., Merak was going to fall, it's certainly plausible that elements of or the entire Merak BF would have been evacuated elsewhere.

Start a new scenario, and look at one of the briefing screens for the Guadalcanal scenario - it should tell you the start date and end date. I unfortunately cannot remember off the top of my head.

Well, Terminus has mentioned he's working on an Operation Downfall scenario, so I would guess yes.

Is there any rhyme or reason to which LCU gets reinforcements first? Suppose there's two LCU's, one at Pearl and another on Tarawa, both with HQ support, both needing the same number of infantry squads. Who gets them?

Even with Air HQs that arrive with torpedoes on hand, once those torpedoes are expended, they have to have enough supply on hand to draw more torpedoes. <br/>

I think when you set a second TF to "meet" a first TF, the second TF will sail to the destination of the first TF and meet it there. So, if the first TF is going to Lunga, the second "meeting" TF will sail to Lunga and wait.

I thought the rafter storage of aircraft was already accounted for as "reserved" planes.

Thanks for the update. I was going to wait for the physical manual to arrive so I could flip through it at my leisure before jumping into the game, but now...

<r> Have your folks buy you the discounted original right now. Then wait a few months, play some WiTP, start saving some cash, then buy AE with the WiTP owner discount before the three month period ends.<br/>

Port size needs to be 9. Alternatively, have a sub tender present for torpedo reloads at ports of any size. Doesn't help with mines though.

It's not "you" versus "enemy", it's "owner of base" versus the other side. So, for an enemy base, it's enemy air power versus yours.
