RE: Minimum Div req'd cross into singapore

i've kept the airfield damaged since day 1 so no extra forts.
i don't think anything extra got in except from johore bahru, some may have got out.
it's consistently shown about 30 units, 50,000 troops, 400 guns and 250 AFVs

<br/>
It appears that in Scen. 2 Japan has 79 factories researching aircraft. If the best research techniques involve using 6 factories at 30 a/c each it would seem possible to hastily ...

Has anyone determined the best settings (Altitude combinations for Vals, Kates, Zero Missions, fleet range to target etc..)
