<r> Hi LST,<br/>
1. Some rear area bases don't have this units.<br/>
2. I'm not sure about it. This probably good supply link from Indochina to even India. Maybe resources link too.<br/>
3. I don't see any ASW Jake attacks. I saw some Pete attacks but this planes have standard bombs. Games watch ...

<r> Hi LST. We are still playing your mod. Now we have end of February 1943.<br/>
I understand that some things in mod was changed so maybe many of my comments are no longer valid. <br/>
1. A plenty of dot bases good working in China but it is annoying when those deprived of troops pass "for free ...

<r> <QUOTE><s>[quote]</s>Reduced ability for infantry to kill tanks, and boost to IJA infantry. Now allied player need brigs some superior numbers and firepower to roll IJA defenses. Only Russian and USA squads are stronger but only by 10-30% not 50-100% like it was in original version of scenario ...

<t> I found error in database. This is effect of repairing an error with an invisible Kate model.<br/>
Now Kate 2 upgreade to non-existent 693 aircraft (or similiar number). In effect I lost my Kate2 factory. It is possible that I can fix it but we will be know it after next turn.<br/>
Fuel ...

Won't make the plane a war winner, but maybe a bit more useful.

Pilots of Empire thank you for your efforts. Now it's very useful plane. I think especially due to this plane AB role.

<t> Some impresion after 2 months of play (game time).<br/>
You should remmember that we (I and Dave) are playing a modified version of game, so Japan not run out of resources but is big problem to delivered them.<br/>
1. I have first resource crissis. Maybe LST changed somethig or I have to bring ...

<t> I like this mod. I play it and this is very interesting. <br/>
But we (I and my allied oponent Dave) changed some industry shortcomings.<br/>
For example we downgrade HI/LI resource request from 25 to 20 and also we increased resource center on DEI, Malaya, Philipines, Indochina and Burma.<br ...

But you have more supply in Tokyo than I have in whole Japan.
You should think about WitPtracker. It is useful tool for planning and industry control.

60k resources in Tokyo. It means crisis.
You have more than 1 mln resources in Hakodate, easy to transport to Omimato.
But 1 mln resources is still only for less than month, maybe week or two.

<r> <QUOTE><s>[quote]</s>I have increased the starting resources stockpiles in the HI. However, more resource centers have been moved from the HI to the colonies and the SRA<e>[/quote]</e></QUOTE>
We (I and Dave) are playing with version where are more resource center in DEI etc (existing centers ...

<r> <QUOTE><s>[quote]</s>I still have to get a better understanding of shipyards.<e>[/quote]</e></QUOTE>
It's easy.<br/>
HI->NS(or MS or other industries)->ships (or engines, tanks etc...)<br/>
When you stop or accelerate ships this affect only on NS (or MS). When you stop or build NS this affect ...

<r> <QUOTE><s>[quote]</s>Yamato and Musashi are both halted until HI looks better. <e>[/quote]</e></QUOTE>
You use naval shipyard points to build warships not HI points. When you want save HI points you should stopped different industries (like N/M shipyard, engines etc...). Don't specific ships ...

How many resources do you have in Japan at this time?

<t> I very agree with idea greater use of cargo ships. I think I will have enough ships.<br/>
Problem is different. My advance is fast, I think. But after less than a month, I am unable to exploit all resources in the Malaya, DEI and Phillipines region.<br/>
Probably some of this sources will be ...

<t> Some comments on economics in early 1942.<br/>
The resources situation in Japan looks bad despite the changes. I wonder how bad it looks in a parallel game.<br/>
The situation with fuel also looks bad. What is aggravated by the need to involve more transport ships also to resources transport ...

<t> Hi to all. With Dave's permission.<br/>
My english isn't very good and writing in English is very tiring for me so I will not create a competitive AAR.<br/>
About house rules.<br/>
We have one more, I think important house rules (I always establish it).<br/>
"The first operational phase ...

The problem is that "AFB" accept only the game in which the Japanese player will play in exactly the same way as history or possibly worse.

<r> This game like most others is favorable for the offensive side.<br/>
It is much easier to plan, command and implement from the level of one omnipotent person than many people who argue and often quarrel.<br/>
For this reason, Japan is easier at the beginning and the Allies are easier later ...

Way too much logistics .....

It was just such a war. Using one model of aircraft of a given type is perhaps effective, but not much fun and not realistic.

With PDU: On, my IJA bombers are all flying either the Helen or the Nick by late 1942.

You should play with PDU off. More fun, more types of aircraft, more problem with R&D choice.
