On the Dec. 7th move alone the issue to me is basically one of immobile game design in the areas of magic TFs and the amphib bonus, coupled with perfect Japanese knowledge of every single Allied force disposition down to individual ...

I read it as well. Would be nice if you brought it back.

thank you for this info! [&o][&o]

<t> IIRC the fuel supplies at PH amount to some 500.000 units. And depending on how fast he takes it, he may take 20-30k supplies as well as the industry intact. <br/>
This alone should pay for at least one year of maintenance for PH. And the VPs from sunk ships and destroyed squads are just a ...

Any plans to bombard PH with your battleships? They would add disruption to the defenders and reduce their adjusted AV.

At Hong Kong I'd reccommend bringing the 23army HQ from Canton. Even if prep will be zero for Hong Kong it will still help with AV modifiers and fatigue recovery.

So, what is the actual KB composition nowadays? Is it accurate calling it KB?

Losing the KB would simply really be to tough for me to take. I already have lost way too much of it. I realize this is the endgame, but golly-gee, I gotta accomplish something with it. Plus I get two more carriers Unryu and Amagi in about 10 ...

Found another opponent. Thanks to everyone for their offers!

Oh. My bad then.
I don't like 2day turns since it leaves a lot of room for things to go wrong in the second day. My personal opinion, of course.

<t> I always thought that following the changes in aircraft coordination checks, LBA against Allied CV deathstar is a doomed affair. The only use would be to fatigue and deplete allied CV units in order to soften them up for a KB strike. <br/>
