I just sent you 2 saves. One is post Patch 2 with Hotfix 2 (wpae022). The other is Patch 3 Beta (wpae021). In my message I said that i didn't confirm Base repair of seaplanes when Tenders are gone. I will test this later today with enough Base AV support to include the seaplanes ...

A Rising Problem!

<t> It is difficult to apply fundamental game strategy when we don't even know how the rules work and this game is too complex to learn how the rules work by trial and error as we play. Thank God for people like wwengr who are willing to experiment and uncover the rules. Unexplained rules are the ...

RE: AV Type ships. Bug or WAD?

<r> Gary,<br/>
I would guess that you are getting regular Base AV help from PH once the Tender is removed. I think that Patch 3 Beta has removed Tender support of seaplane maintenance when Tenders are in the same Base as the seaplanes. I think that this is also negating Base support of the ...

<t> Hi Michaelm,<br/>

Prior to patch 3 Beta, my PBY squadrons were repairing aircraft at Bases with adequate supply and DISBANDED AVD ships which had AV support at least equal to the PBY aircraft numbers. This seemed to change with patch 3 Beta. Quickly increasing numbers of PBYs are ...

RE: AV Type ships. Bug or WAD?

<t> Refer to my post above -<br/>
<br/>
My AVD type support ships have all been disbanded into the 3 different ports, so not being in a TF is not causing the apparent lack of AV support for the PBY squadrons. It is as if they are stationed at a dot base with no support. This is a game-breaker for ...

Assuming a Command HQ with 200 support, 100 Naval Support and a command radius of 5 at base 1, 3 segments of 25 each support/Naval Support are sent to Base 2 (5 hexes distance), Base 3 (10 hexes distance), and Base 4 (11 hexes distance), I interpret the effects as ...
