My grandfather was a Lt Col in a quartermaster unit and I know that he was in the Philippines in '45. Unfortunately, he died in 1960, my dad died in 1985 (was a teenager during the war), and my grandmother passed in 1988 so I have no one to ask for more information.

I am playing 1126a, using the Kami map mod and DaBigBabes scenario and Bremerton is there and usable.

LST... that would be an excellent correction.

Supposedly, this isn't supposed to happen if you have them on a patrol zone ... they're supposed to RTB for fuel B4 they run out. Yet, I have 2 subs just like your Aleutian sub in the same state ... limping back to port accruing damage each day
(yes, when out of fuel, they accrue daily ...

Any ideas on load or other stats from this plane or I will estimate from Wiki etc....

According to my Jane's Encyclopaedia of Aviation 30 of these were made for Air France and were used on the Paris-Dakar and Paris-Hanoi routes (the book listed Cannes and Damascus as interim stops but ...

Weird thing happened. One of my RO subs in the Aleutians is out of fuel. :roll: They're pulling out the oars and will make it back in a month. Then probably another month to repair all the damage. *sigh*

I don't see anything wrong in the editor for DBB scen 29 and this unit, neither in the locations tab (TOE) nor the devices tab.

The TOE goes from 54 to 81 para squads on 430801 and the initial device 1106 "US Para Squad" upgrades to "US Para Squad 44" in 4408 and nothing further.

To me it looks ...

If the Wikipedia entry for the 503rd Parachute Regiment is to be believed, the unit participated in both airborne and amphibious operations. Different battalions were added or reassigned, including one that was sent to Britain.

Read the Wikipedia entry or get the actual unit history from the ...

I've been playing DaBigBabes scen 29 for quite some time and just noticed that the 503rd Parachute Regiment has 54 US AmphSupt squads instead of Para squads (game has reached Jan '45). Does anyone know the rationale behind this?

Okay, I am not playing the newest version, at least until it becomes an official one.

This could be why that effect is not showing up in my game. Just like Mike says, when I look at the "aviation support required" line for any base, the amount of air support listed as required is invariably equal ...

Page 185 is rule 8.2.1.1 Operations Mode. Rule 9.4.1 Airfield Damage is on page 214. This is using the last official version 1.8 11 26a.

9.4 AIRFIELDS
Airfields accommodate, repair and resupply air
units, and serve as a point from which to launch
air strikes.
Airfield size has many effects ...

Brad and Skyros, I think we may be talking about different things. I am aware that the airfield can support the number of engines there equal to the airfield size * 50. What I'm talking about is the air support squads, which is in the air support units and some other units.


Mike, I was agreeing ...

Something just dawned on me. When you click on a base, it'll tell you aviation support and aviation support required. The aviation support required number is always the number of aircraft at that base, not the number of engines. That doesn't jive with what you said about the support required being ...

If you pay attention, a level 8 AF doubles the amount of air support the AS squads provide. If the base just increased from level 7 to 8 you won't see it that turn but you will the next turn. I consider level 8 airfields to be almost as important as level 9 (can't beat that unlimited number of ...

The Japanese don't need to load their aircraft on cargo ships but the Allies do need to load them on cargo ships if they actually want the air units go to where they are needed.

Not the Allied AI! :lol:

Since the AI cannot load aircraft onto ships (it doesn't know how), the AI gets a "free ...

DB and TB pilots can fly actual missions on Naval Search to increase that skill and Experience. That does not require waiting for the enemy to show up. But that must be balanced so that pilots and planes are not too fatigued to fly strike missions when the enemy does show up. So many nuances in ...

Okay, I figured out what was going on. I was trying to access the aircraft on the ship through the ship repair screen, not the "list ships under repair" screen. Using the latter I am able to adjust the numbers of aircraft in the various squadrons.

Thanks, Joe.

The squadrons on the Chesapeake are all grayed out, so I guess that I can't do anything with them until the ship leaves drydock. The other carriers will remain in their various ports until enough F6F, SBD/SB2C, and TBF aircraft have been placed in reserve so as to allow me to return ...
