There were also shore batteries protecting Subic Bay, which is the northern part of that hex. Fort Went had a mix of 6" and 3" guns.

Just posting to let you know that people are following and reading.

Thank you for the effort. There aren't many Allied invasions of China to follow.

I will be following this, and don't worry about your English.

I'm not sure that I have seen an AAR with a bombardment of PH before. I am little depressed that the shore batteries were not more effective.

At look at Akyab...some, all Japanese are breaking out across the river. into the teeth of a British Division and most likely an Indian Regiment & Motorized Regiment will get there in time for the fight. It could be very ugly. :shock:


If they're disrupted, I can imagine it being ugly for them ...

I'll be curious to see how your hunter/killer groups do. I have never had good luck with them, so I have reverted to a passive defense of convoy escorts to kill subs. The only exception to that has been groups around Hawai'i keeping the approaches clear.

With the update, will games against the AI be able to utilize the extended map and stacking limits without "breaking things?"

I found an interesting bit of history 2 days ago re. the Canadian declaration of war against the Japanese. They declared war before the PH attack and also without the parlament [8D]

I'll be following this one just to see the counters to an agressive Japanese player who focuses on the DEI.

Should be fun.

...If one wants a “DC” as an aircraft weapon for the ASW “mission”, I suggest adding a device in the file, “Typing” it as an 03 GP bomb, but naming it as a DC and setting the specs where you want them. Now you got Air “missions” and Air ...

Friedman's design series (US Carriers, US Battleships, etc) has a lot of data about US designs. They are a little pricey ($60ish new) but I have found them completely worth the money. They are also nice for showing the evolution of US ...

I have Jane's Fighting Ships of WWII as well as fighting A/C but I get the picture that many of the specs might be somewhat limited by censorship of the time. I don't recommend it. For instance the IJN section is really a mess in the ...

<t> I was more thinking that, like the values for accuracy and such with guns, we'd have access to something that would allow us to put our own planes in. Something like for wing load X it will give a maneuver rating of Y. I'm sure that there would be more variables. I'm really not interested in how ...

Are the calculations something that will be shareable?

I don't know how different pykrete is than raw ice in its ability to squeeze, but I'll take your word for it. An 80/20 ice/sawdust ratio would be better I think, but how much I don't know. What I was somewhat reacting to was the picture of a BB ...

i am enjoying following this game, and I hope that you continue with it.

Historically, the Dutch didn't have trouble bombing rebelleous citzens. They bombed naval vessels that were mutinous, so why not an oil field that goes over to the enemy?

Personally, I look at ships that are comparable in size and configuration.

If I am doing a destroyer, I look for one that is about the same size with the same number of propellors and rudders. I also try and use the same country if possible, that isn't always an option.

<r> There were plans for US conversions of passenger ships. The Navy didn't think that they were going to be worth the effort.<br/>
