OT : The Russian 2nd Pacific Squadron - Voyage of the Damned

<r> One of my favorite 5 minute mini-naval lessons youtube site (Drachinifel) just released a quite long and amusing tale (probably a bit tall) of the voyage of the 2nd Pacific squadron of the Russian Navy to their doom at Tsushima. Quite possibly exaggerated, but if even 20% is true, Togo's victory ...

RE: Notes from a Small Island

thanks for the answer, so that means that the range settings to DBs and TBs for NAVsearch (even in the case of 0% naval attack), may force a CV TF, or in your case two of them,to react (overrides the zero react)

In the, "Well, duh!" department, I think I spurred reaction by having my carrier dive bombers set to Naval Search range 10. I got lots of good intel about the disposition of enemy units, but at a cost of triggering the reaction.<br/>

I think combined port + AF size 6 and they can be avoided at 7k. Not sure if the Allies get them

RE: Port Upgrades and Speed Of Cargo Handling

Edit Sorry I misunderstood the question, yeah, it could be due to TF/ship size (docking), lack of naval support (Pearl and San Francisco usually have a lot of naval support), read section 6.3 of the manual to see all the factors

I would dug in in the hex next to Ramree Island. The island is connected to the Burma mainland by just one hex (either E or NE of Ramree). If Allies take Ramree Island, develop it and dump 1,000,000 supply points, the supply will not filter to ...

RE: The dreadful port recon mission

<t> I remember reading that a camera on the recon plane makes a huge difference. The JFBs get a large number of recons with no cameras (which for example seems to make troop numbers always seem double what they really are, even with 70+ recon skill) and the AFBs get very few units, albeit camera ...

RE: Is it worth building up Ramree Island?

I think I framed my question wrong. Should I try to build up Ramree to some degree to protect it from invasion or should I leave it as a dot base and if the Allies land there, have them go through the hardship of building it up?

RE: Is it worth building up Ramree Island?

I haven't done it yet, but I definitely would. My current knowledge is the a dot base couldn't support an ACM because of fuel spoilage, so I would have to make it level one at least.

Is it worth building up Ramree Island?

And put a special base force, an ACM, 150 mines and an SNLF to defend my flank mid-war or am I just helping out the Commonwealth? Or do they have enough engineers to build up Ramree in no time even without my lvl 1(0)port help?
