<t> When suffering attacks with high odds against them, Japanese units will make a check to banzai charge rather than surrender. I think what happens with Japanese HQ units is that they pass the check to banzai rather than surrender (because of generally high leadership), but they are incapable of ...

<r> The game is suspended for a short time. Apbarog is hosting a party at his home this weekend for a baseball league draft, and I will be meeting my mother in Cordoba and traveling with her until Tuesday of next week. This is not an opportune time to leave off the game and hurry a turn before ...

<t> As others have mentioned tracker is almost essential to PDU:off R&D planning, if you are doing it for the first time. Also the upgrade paths for some squadrons are changed in DBB from stock. The same may be the case for other mods. I do not know.<br/>

Lol... you are crazy.. setting your CVs to these home ports. Why not just set 100 xAKLs to each port? BBs too. Setting the BBs, not disbanded, in a port, any port, will use more fuel than transporting ...

GA's technique will work, but you can also get it to work without all that machination in about 87% of the time. I've posted before how, it works. It is easiest to do this to PA or Shanghai, but Fusan is possible. Not only for fuel, but also ...

Fuel overland transport works great if you know what you are doing. At max capacity it is definitely gamey because you don't needing tankers for fuel at all, apart from collecting from DEI to Singers, and shipping from Fusan to HIs. It is ...

<t> The initial raid was detected by the Tai-Chi 7s, it seems. It was not "overhead," and the entire CAP did scramble and was airborn for the follow-on raids. The follow-on raids, however, were not detected by the Tai-Chi 7s it seems. This is probably because they were small raids of 6 planes or ...

Singapore is a great place to store oil, for a time. Fuel on the other hand seems to move freely and readily. How would HI operate otherwise? Just bank the oil at Singapore and start moving it when convenient. Now, to Aurorus. <br ...

<r> The 3 CVEs were en route to SoPac and are 2 days from Truk. The A6M2s from 2 of the CVEs have flown ahead of them to Kusaie Island. 42 Tojo IIas were in the process of transferring down to SoPac from Korea. They are now at Saipan. Every free air asset, not being used at New Caledonia and ...

<r> For a few days, I was receiving "heavy radio traffic" from Pearl Harbor. This is not unusual, as large cargo and TK TFs move through Pearl often.

<t> It is very difficult to have large quantities of fuel move from Singapore over land permanently. In an attempt to move fuel overland, I think what some Japanese players will do is set the home-port of a large number of xAKs to Camh Ran Bay, Saigon, Haiphong, and Hong Kong. Fuel will flow to ...
