My thanks to all for fixing the install problems with SeaBee. I did get it to install but I now have a new laptop so it needs configuring and have forgotten how to do that, sorry. Any assistance would be appreciate. As of now it does not find the executable and the screen is a mess.

After not playing for quite awhile and being sorely disappointed with WITE2, thought I would give this ago again. Settings were as recommended without FOW. I have yet to try that. Think I have only played with straight through about five or six times now, Well I managed Sudden Death earlier that I e...

So no Seabea for now then? That is a bummer. I had a hard drive crash and bought a new computer.

Yes, I have 4 Chinese Aces flying I-16s in Jun 42.

Which is why it is a good idea to preposition a few AOs across the Pacific for refueling at smaller bases. Fuel from the west coast is one thing you are not in short supply. Going full speed really burns fuel and causes major damage to ships. I rarely do it.

Thanks for all the info. The less than 9 ships I seem to have missed.

That would explain the issue with the forts. Supply is tight in this scenario so not likely to get to level 7.

Another question, how do you attack ships in a port by air? I am at a loss.

<t> I am running into a few strange for me at least issues with base building. Fortification in red and air bases with an * that are extremely slow to build. I am obviously missing something, but did not see anything in a perusal of the rulebook.<br/> <br/> Also. I am in Nov 42. Have sunk The Zuikak...

<t> I doubt you would even get people to agree on the basis for the update. I for one was less than impressed with WITE2. The air war is over complicated and oversimplified both at the same time. I still don't get what is wrong with air units? I didn't like WITW due to its air system but at least wi...

Think I will make a backup folder of all my saves just in case and then use a new save file. That way if I mess it up!

<t> So if I want to send a TF through an area to clear or patrol it say a cruiser TF I would want the threat tolerance high, but if I want to send a troop transport I probably want it as low as I can get, right?<br/> <br/> Thanks for the links Trugrit, I will have to check them out.<br/> <br/> As fa...

<r> <QUOTE><s>[quote]</s>ORIGINAL: RangerJoe<br/> <br/> <QUOTE><s>[quote]</s>ORIGINAL: Tanaka<br/> <br/> What settings are recommended to use for different TF and why?

<t> As one that is still a relative NOOB here, only been playing for about 3 to 4 months, I have seen the forum get a lot grumpier since I first came online. What as originally a rather welcoming place quickly degenerated into a lot of RTFM. From a NOOBs perspective, let me say that there is reading...

<t> Playing my first game against the AI. It is March 17th. Bataan has been eating rats for over a month and is down to 357 AV, but 31,000 are still holding out for a few more turns. I did set it to hard. I really did not do anything special and tried to get as much supply as I could in there in Dec...

Actually I was considering replacing the squadrons with zero airframes due to losses with ones that are only carrier capable, but with the comments I am guessing it is better to just wait on replacement airframes.

I understand. My question is on how long it is going to take me to get replacements for the losses carrier trained. I know about the pilots. At the same time I need to repair the 23 major float damage.

How long does it take to train AC on a carrier to make them carrier capable? Got hit on the Saratoga by a torpedo and bomb and lost most of my planes attempting a return strike. Ran into a wall of Zeros.

I pretty much have been, just wanted to make sure it would not cause a problem. Starting to have a small reserve of somewhat trained pilots. Hey, besides the Tigers and the squadrons I got out of the Phillipeans, they are the better than what is at the front anyway.
