<QUOTE><s>[quote]</s>Tiltle says it all. I cannot send a transport of any great size into Rangoon and I certainly cannot send Allied BB's there as well so how do the Japaneses attack ships at sea at Rangoon with BB's? <e>[/quote]</e></QUOTE ...

You have a problem with BBs there, but you dont have a problem with an invasion force trying to maneuver in a river?

The invasion force (well, reinforcements actually, Rangoon is still mine (may '42)) was already in ...

RE: Can someone explain how Japanese battleships can sail into Rangoon

<r> I had the exact same thing happening, with worse results <E>:-)</E>, against AI as well. I'll post it in the bug forum, this doesn't seem right.<br/>

RE: Advice needed concerning surrounding troops

<r> You're probably right Nemo, giving them time to recuperate, with hopes of them doing stupid things is a bit gamey. Guess I'm just a bit disappointed my Burmese seaborn-counter-blitzkrieg-kessel is turning out to be a dud. On the part of playing PBEM, I'll probably never play a human player since ...

RE: Advice needed concerning surrounding troops

<r> Little additional question. Might it be that this stalemate is caused by overbombing the 40k encircled soldiers. Because of this they are disorganized, low on supplies and fatigued, and therefore refusing to attack and throw themselves at my lvl 5 fortifications? Perhaps give them some air will ...

RE: Advice needed concerning surrounding troops

<t> I'm playing on historical (?)/normal difficulty, first time campaign, and learning the ropes on the fly.<br/>
<br/>
The troops seem to be a tat fatigued (20 on average), so not attacking in the near future. Does bombarding cause fatigue as well? They've all been doing so. On the other hand the ...

RE: Advice needed concerning surrounding troops

<t> Just checked experience, most INF LCU's are between 50-60 and 2 ARM with 70 exp. Have yet to get 2:1 odds though. Still a bit worried about letting them escape, it seems such a waste of effort after all this encircling. I'm keeping them there for another week. Does the no supply penalty increase ...

RE: Allies Set-up Spreadsheet for AE

<r> Thanks a lot for the spreadsheet, it greatly helped me in starting a full game for the first time. Just by implementing your moves you learn the game and it's mechanics. Manuals can only tell that much. December 21st now, and I'm actually playing with some sense of what I'm supposed to do. Still ...

Just a quick thanks from a complete newb for this great AAR. It's not often I plough through 45 pages! I'm still scratching my head over why things happen as they do in the Coral Sea scenario, but your AAR gives a much deeper insight into the overall way this game is ...

And looking at the date of these threads there's not a tutorial coming either. Bit disappointing, but hey. I'll give ...
