Closed, opponent found.

I like the confirmation for disbanding a TF, they are at the heart of the game and deserve every click and button they get.
Some more attention would have been nice for land units, the PP cost for organizing unrestricted units is a bit high and might have been eliminated totally.

I have this same issue with the Beta.

These look good, thanks for your work!

My experience is somewhere between those, Soviet beginner can win just fine against me.

There is an option in the editor which governs whether squads and devices disappear or get dumped in the pools when a unit withdraws or disbands. I think as a general rule units that withdraw usually take the stuff with them and units that disband drop the stuff into the pools, but there might ...

I have an almost ready opening, but I dont know if it s compatible with the final patch or 4 engine bombers on low naval.

Well, that's one house rule then. At least for a non-historical start. Most of them I've noted appear aimed at 'gamey' tactics, but I find myself asking what's gamey.
I guess 4 engine bombers at 100 feet vs shipping although I believe I have read at least one reference to that actually happening ...

I hadn't thought about it. 'Non-historical'. Isn't there something for the Allies? Can't they also at least move their carriers even with surprise on?


Would that be a surprise anymore?
Usually the Japanese player is restricted by house rule to go after the US CVs in turn 1 and not allowed ...

Kudos to all of you.

Does he has detection on those oilers?


He has 3/6 detection from the PBYs based at Johnston Island. I don't think he has any strike ability, and they'll have CAP when they reach the Marshalls. The Marshalls seem like the safest place to run them, given they can't keep up with KB and I don't ...

I read it so that both a Shoho lookout and the Kates crew spotted and reported the Allied patrol aircraft.
The ac might be from a carrier but conducting search as it is following the TF, doctrinally US carrier ac on search should also try to bomb after reporting the TF.

Not sure now and just looked but didn't see it. In non-historical I though IJ had flexibility in set hexes with some units having a movement bonus to represent pre-game movement(?) I never played non-historical.


Must be the the "magic move" task forces you are talking about.

What about disbanded units? Will the equipment go to the same pools? The infantry squads?

What is a free IJ start?
Dont you want to wait for the last patch?

I just divide the map in to combat commands, land, sea or both, similar as historically both sides did and the management portion in to phases, ground, air, naval.

Hi y'all,
Sorry to resurrect a zombie thread but I I'm currently having issues with Intel monkey v1.0 Pre-Beta . I've been using AE Tracker for some time already and love it but I urgently need something to index Battle reports.

The installation goes fine, config is done, database is created ...

For those who are newer here, the % rest you need to use is largely driven by the SR of aircraft involved. Higher SR requires more % rest. SR is partly driven by number of engines. Most players will find that for SR=1, 30% is adequate. For multi-engine planes like Mavis, don't be surprised if ...
