<t>Well, I like to see if I can do better than the historical outcome. I have (well, had) a strategy, but I was too slow off the dime. I still think it could work, if implemented properly.<br/>

On the other hand, my brother stuck his neck out by scattering parts of an Aussie brigade all over ...

Anyone PBEM Scen. 16 as Japs?

<t>Is anyone playing Scenario 16 PBEM taking the Japanese side? (This is the most "historical" post-Midway scenario)<br/>
<br/>
If your are, I was wondering how you are fairing. I am near the end of June '42 in a game vs. my brother, and the Japs have a really tough row to hoe against a decent human ...

<t>CV stands for Carrier, Heavier-than-air aircraft. This dates from the days when the USN had both heavier-than-air and lighter-than-air aircraft.<br/>
<br/>
The designation carries over to squadron designations also. "V" means fixed-wing heavier than air, i.e. airplanes. "Z" designated lighter ...

<t>I have to agree with pretty much everything that Sabre21 has said. As a former Navy flight surgeon I can speak a bit to the behavior, motivation, and psychology of aviators.<br/>
<br/>
As a nugget flight surgeon, I came to realize there is an unspoken hierarchy of pilots. The single seat fighter ...

Small Fog-of-War bug

<t>In all versions, as the Allied player, I get sighting reports from Japanese aircraft, as well as Allied:<br/>
<br/>
i.e. "H6K Mavis-whatever sighting: CA CA DD DD"<br/>
<br/>
They have the "red" graphic as opposed to the "blue" Allied graphic.<br/>
<br/>
Is this a small bug that has yet to get ...

<t>I've been seeing this also.<br/>
<br/>
Bombardment TF's bombard, then "convert" to Surface Action TF's, and DO NOT retire.<br/>
<br/>
I've been playing Scenario 16 pre and post patch using the same strategy and tactics i.e. TF composed of CA's Chester, San Francisco, Australia, Canberra, and a ...

ETA on PBEM patch?

<t>I don't want to be a nag or anything, but is there a rough ETA on the patch?<br/>
<br/>
The reason I ask is that I am only 4 days into a long campaign game with another player, and we already are seeing each other's TF's, and seeing combat resolutions from the opposite players perspective.<br ...
