RE: Calling all lurkers (and forumites) - STATUS UPDATE please!

<t> It has been awhile since I posted or played Admiral's Edition. Started with UV and WITP. I still get an urge to play a game every so often.<br/>
<br/>
The quarantine made me reach out to an old opponent that I occasionally stay in touch with, Patrickl. Looks like he last posted in July 2018 ...

Japanese opponent wanted-Closed

I'm switching over to playing the Allies after two years as the Japanese.
Looking for long scenario and house rules can be agreed on later.

RE: Creating barges

What do you use the barge for? I've never found any real use for them.

I just read "The Last Stand of the Tin Can Sailors". Good read about the Battle off Samar.

RE: BB South Dakota Damage

Nice shot with the one 14" shell. Seems odd that only one of the 14" shells hit. Wonder how close the rest in the salvo came.
Cool graphic. Thanks.

RE: How Reload ML's in 1941?

Having a MLE ( Mine layer tender) will also let you reload mines. Stock games don't have one early in the war. Some of the mods have them early on.

RE: CV TF - Which ships are a distraction to incoming air attacks ?

I see BB's attacked often. I've even seen a BB tf in the same hex as mini KB get attacked instead of the CV's.

RE: Questions from a possible buyer

The AI is probably the best I've seen in the Gray Grigsby Pacific War games. That being said it still doesn't compare to a human. After a PBEM game the AI offers no challenge.

RE: an I'm interested in purchasing this game; but I have some concerns

Pacwar was a great game. This one is even better. Nothing compares to playing a PBEM game with somebody. Definitely worth the money.

RE: OT SBD Dogfight

If I rememeber correctly Yorktown actually put SBD's up as CAP to augment the small number of Wildcats.
Dogfights is a great show. The one about Taffy 3 at the Battle off Samar is my favorite.

<t> Just a thought but you said The sync bug resolved itself. Perhaps you are still out of sync. Have you tried running the fix? It worked for me.<br/>

1. Japanese player, receives Allied turn. <br/>

2. Japanese player turns off COMBAT REPORTS <br/>

Decent Allied player wanted (Closed)

<r> I'm looking for a good Allied player to take on. I've played too many new players and need a challenge. I've got stock and the CHS+NIK mod loaded at the moment but am willing to try any Scenario. House rules can be settled on before game.<br/>

Are you sure those pilots in the pool are Navy pilots? 60 experience sounds like Army pilots.

RE: Kido Butai

What AI difficulty level are you playing? The AI gets a supply and combat bonus on hard or very hard settings.
Play a PBEM. It's much more challenging and enjoyable.
