RE: VS AI: Attacking KB in Dec 41

<t> I appreciate the pointers, BB, but in this case I've only got a few days to act before the KB gets out past Midway, and I don't want to chase them into Netty range. Currently, I have the carrier planes stood down except for CAP, and the PBYs from PH and Midway have everything east of the islands ...

RE: VS AI: Attacking KB in Dec 41

<t> That's why offloading on Midway is in the plan. Lexington starts with a Marine bomber squadron aboard and is still able to run as normal, so the plan is to drop one squadron from each carrier off on Midway. Also, in regards to Japanese range: the KB is running 10% search on all Val squadrons ...

VS AI: Attacking KB in Dec 41

<r> Situation: AI has begun a Scen 1 historical start by launching a 3-day campaign against PH with KB. The Dec 8-9 raids were met by PH CAP and suffered heavy losses for little gain. Peeking behind the fog of war reveals that KB has lost ~50% of Val and ~30% of Kate strength. KB retains enough ...

RE: PT Boats

The slow pace would probably be considered penalty enough by some, and IIRC, PTs tend to rack up sys damage quickly when on the move.

The manual mentions "emergency mobilization", which creates some LCUs for no cost, but I've never been trying to hold the home islands in '45, so I'm not the authority.

Is this against the AI? The AI constantly rebuilds destroyed industry. That would explain why the refinery hasn't been totally destroyed yet. Otherwise, this seems like a bug.
