$25? That's a steal! I paid $42 for mine, and I am extremely pleased with the purchase.

If it's the one from Clash at Arms, then it is the minitures system from Harpoon, adapted for WW2. If you like Harpoon, then will like CaS:The Rising Sun. It does, however, only go to about late 42 or early 43. It does not cover the entire war.

<t> If 4% chance of penetrating hit causes mag explosion, then P(1)=6(.04)(.96)^5 = 0.196 approx.<br/>
<br/>
We should then expect to see the PoW vs Chikuma happen one time five (about). Is this combat typical?<br/>
<br/>
If the chance was changed to 1%, then P(0)=(.99)^6=0.94 approx. or .06 ...

<t> Howdy,<br/>
<br/>
Just curious. In the combats with magazine explosions, how many penetrating hits are there? How many hits total?<br/>
<br/>
Answers to those questions will go a long way to help know if the results are probable. Sometimes our gut feeling is not in line with the resulting ...

Using a simple binomial distribution, the probability of 2 occuring in 100 penetrations is about .14 They most likely happen a little more than we would be thinking.

I was surprised when I saw that the probabilty of zero in 100 chances was .01

<t>I'll try the follow command from now. Would be nice ifit were easier, but I guess it's time to leave them alone and let them continue with their work. No sense in complaining about things which are unbroken. I guess we all want to eat our cake........<br/>

I am very very satisfied about ...

The system used in Pacific War worked nicely. Maybe we could lobby for a similar system.

<t>Why is it every time a major ship is damaged, the rest of the ships, save one DD, leave her behind? I try to make the others escort my damaged CVs home, but they refuse to even try. When the subs come, there are no escorts to defend.<br/>
<br/>
I have noticed that my CV commanders are very stupid ...

Howdy,

Does anybody remember the details of the hurricane that damaged Halsey's carrier fleet? I only remember the vague outline of the event. IIRC, several carriers were damaged quite seriously.

<t>I guess I should have waited, maybe. I moved both the Lex and the F4F-3s to Noumea. The squad did not upgrade, so no merger there. However, the Hornet arrived with 57 fighter pilots. I sent both the Lex and Hornet to sea for an emergency engagement. The Hornet happend to share her pilots with the ...

<t>Howdy. <br/>
<br/>
I have been reading here for a long time, but I thought I'd finally join the discusions. I love this game and find that I can live with the little problems. I really enjoyed reading dgaad(sp?) thoughts on the B-17s. I learned alot. <br/>

Now:<br/>
