I am 57 and this is the number one game on my wishlist. If it ever gets AI in it, will be an instant buy. So hopefully I live long enough to see it (laughing)

<t> I understand what you are saying HansBolter. I have a ton of AK's running the Capetown/Abadan run for fuel and Colombo to keep the supply up....This game is always "I wish I had more of X" In Sydney I have a full division I just paid the PP's for but not enough fuel there to get the convoy going ...

<t> Thanks for the answers guys, checked the city Tsuyung and it says "Burma Road is open" so hopefully more supplies will get to China....and I clicked the "yes" in supplies for a few bases to see if that helps also. I could be doing great in China if I had the supplies. Holding my own though, and ...

<t> Just got my brother War in the Pacific AE for Christmas as he is a huge wargamer also.....We normally play Hearts of Iron 4 together and Squad Leader is our main war game.....Retired like me I am sure he is going to be throwing hours away into the game soon.<br/>
<br/>
My game is going good ...

<t> From what I was reading that Rangoon is important for supplying China but you have to have a clear path for that to happen....I finally beat the IJA out of Rangoon and now we are fighting over Pegu.....So hopefully after I clear them from Pegu, the supplies can flow to China. <br/>

Thank you for the reply Sir. So from what you are saying the IJN can use every hex for their convoy's....I am so glad that there is the "patrol" feature.....that is making sub missions much much more manageable....I have most of my Dutch and S boats in the DEI and Solomon ...

<t> Next question isn't actually about the game, but wondering if something for the game exists....Google was not my friend.....Is there a user made map out there that shows the convoy routes used in the game? Something like that would be a huge help in setting up submarine patrols....<br/>
<br ...

Maallon,

Got it sir, thank you.....actually a great idea as so I can't spam mines.

Another one I can't figure out. Sub minelaying missions out of pearl harbor. The subs won't load mines. Shouldn't pearl harbor have a large enough port to have mines?

ALFRED, I am playing the official game not a mod or extended map. And you are absolutely correct. It is a30 size. So off to Colombo which is a 40

Thank you so much platoonist for that. Found that button

<t> Ok I don't understand a lot of the game but love fighting the war. I am confused on repairing the BB New Mexico. Sydney is repair 40. The BB has0 says (repaired in port pierside. 11 flood ( 11 Maj) and 6 eng (6 Maj). It is pierside as it can't go to the shipyard for some reason. It isn't ...

<t> Thanks Guys for the reply.<br/>
<br/>
My AS don't have supplies on board which explains that issue.<br/>
<br/>
So I need an AKE or AE docked and loaded with supplies to get the sorties back.....Will get an AE (only have 2 left I think) to Darwin.<br/>
<br/>
A couple more questions as I am ...

Platoonist, that is great for me as I only play AI and as the Allies.

Will download an extended map. What scenarios should I get for the entire war?

<t> Guys,<br/>
<br/>
Couple questions again.....put my Air Combat TF in Darwin, port still 3.....let it sit a day and the Saratoga won't get any sorites (0/400 or so). The Enterprise still has 300/400 so I sent it out to patrol....The next 2 days it won't attack any convoys and the Saratoga is ...

Thank you BBfanboy, so if you get extended maps you have to get scenarios that will work on the game...Less predictable AI is always a good thing....

Thank you for the reply Sir, saved the game then hit next turn to see what happened with the carrier and you are absolutely correct, next turn the Saratoga rearmed. So that question is answered.....Clark fell on 1 Mar 42, so the version of me from 79 yrs ago would be no ...

<t> Guys,<br/>
<br/>
Still major fighting around Batavia...they have invaded 3 times and I have beat them back 3 times.....Issue I am having now is my 2 carrier force based out of Surabaya isn't completely rearming both carriers.....one is at full sorties and the other is at 0 of 345 or something ...

<t> Thank you Bbfanboy, got the lag taken care off.....Fighting around Palembang is intense, about 50 ships from both sides down, but I got 3 BB's and have a couple carriers based at Surabaya which are giving them hell as their Cv's are in the Central Pacific and also raiding Midway a lot.....about ...

<t> I had forgotten that everything has a commander who's "personality" (stats) dictate whether they listen to my orders or not....which is one of the great things about this game.....last night I had a very important convoy heading to an island.....and they retreated do to a surface threat.....I ...
