RE: 1.00.11 -- Battleground Italy 43-45 Scenario -- Loosing amphib cargo ships in report, with no use

Hmm,

Perhaps the report could be reformatted as:

Cargo Ships Available
Cargo Ships Used
Cargo Ships Lost
Cargo Ships Lost in Amphib TFs

This would make much more sense.

RE: 1.00.11 -- Battleground Italy 43-45 Scenario -- Loosing amphib cargo ships in report, with no use

All my amphib TFs are in african ports prepping. Looking back a couple of saves it seems like there is this monotonic single amphib cargo ship getting sunk and the count keeps on climbing every turn.

Question about ordering air directives

<t> In the players handbook it mentions that Recon missions should always be towards the top of the list, as when resolving events they will occur earlier, and thus increase the success of missions later. There doesn't seem, however, a way to re-order missions -- at least I haven't figured it out ...

1.00.11 -- Battleground Italy 43-45 Scenario -- Loosing amphib cargo ships in report, with no use

<r> Hello,<br/>
<br/>
I've run into something weird. In the Battleground Italy 43-45 scenario the Logistics Phase Event Log it keeps on reporting that I am loosing one Amphib Cargo ship a turn, even though none are active. Is this just an error with the report?<br/>

I'm digging into it; the scary thing is at certain points during the war, I don't think that the RAF could tell you either!

What are you looking for in terms of recon conversions? I have a book reference that may be of some help.

RE: Can't get Air Support elements

Sure, I'll post it later this evening. I have autosave on, is there any particular save that would be best?

RE: Can't get Air Support elements

Yeah I've checked to make sure that I'm not set to priority zero or anything, and all my bases show green. As I said, fuel, ammo, normal support all show up quickly. However the air support does not.

Can't get Air Support elements

<t> I'm playing the Battleground Italy 43-45 scenario, and I've run into a lot of difficulty rebasing the tactical airforce because of missing air support elements. I've tried a couple of different ways of prepping airfields:<br/>

RE: Question about construction units

Any idea how you get them to build\upgrade airfields? Should I attach a construction battalion to one of the air forces? I thought I read that they can't take attachments though.....

Question about construction units

<t> I'm learning the game, and I can't quite figure out how to use construction units. I've been perusing the manual and while it correctly points out that these units are attached to HQs, I can't figure out how to tell them to go to a specific hex. I've had some luck deploying them out of the 15th ...

[FIXED] Build 570 -- Crash when clicking on sonobuoy

i've had this happen a couple of times when doing the basic training: warship operations scenario

click on a sonobuoy and then the game throws an exception and then wants to quit because of an index being out of range in a list<t> type.

ASW/Escort Operations
