RE: marianas scenario

<t> Sorry for the terrible, slow response. Since my offer, I've begun a big model railroad reconstruction in the basement. NashvilleN & I are down to about 4 PBEM turns during a weekend (I'm thankful for his patience).<br/>
<br/>
I've looked at that scenario & it's a monster (gobbles time for the ...

RE: marianas scenario

<t> I've been playing the AI campaign game (as allies) for the last 8 months. I'd only be able to shoot you turn replies during the weekends. (about 7-9 turns per weekend). <br/>
<br/>
I have played (against AI) the marianas scenario, would love to play a real person. I am a month into a PBEM ...

RE: Best USN CV escorts?

<t> Before the fast battleships and Atlanta class light cruisers show up, I like using the Brooklyn class light cruisers and Porter class destoyers for carrier esorts. That frees up the heavy cruisers for surface combat taskforces. Brooklyns have good sea endurance and the Porters (if I remember ...

RE: disband issue - do I lose the pilots and planes?

<t> Sorry I don't have that answer, but thanks for bringing it up. I thought it was just my bad luck (I'm cursed with computer gremlins). Why give me a restricted squadron with only 4-6 months on the board and not give me the 'withdraw' button? To hit disband and be warned you are losing pilots ...

RE: Embarked Flag Officers

<t> Thanks for the reply, but how does that relate to the icon for Fifth Fleet and the invasion of the marianas in this game? Since the Fleet Commander icon does not seem to fit/load on to a cruiser/battleship-how does Spruance impact this battle (as ComFifthFleet)? Does it's ranger cover those ...

Embarked Flag Officers

<t> I've been playing the AI, full campaign. Got through July '42, but not too satisfied with the play of the AI (not ready yet for PBEM)-very entertaining, but not too realistic. So I jumped to the Marianas Scenario. <br/>
<br/>
Question, what is the use of the Fifth US Fleet icon in Pearl Harbor ...

RE: Question regarding coordination of air strikes from carriers

<t> I'm still new to the game (only been playing Allied vs Japanese AI for four months).&nbsp;-- What is the trade off&nbsp;(pros/cons) of&nbsp;coordinated strikes of two (one Carrier) task forces (same hex) as opposed to a single task force with two carriers?&nbsp;&nbsp; I'm playing late Jan '42 ...

Saving good pilots from Luzon invaision

<t> I've only had this game for two months, still learning so many things. I'm playing as Allied against AI, it's Dec 28th 1941. The Jap invasion of Luzon is just about to take Clark Field & Manila. Is there any way to pull the good fighter pilots out of Luzon? I've got some that are double aces & I ...
