<r> Okay, I see what you're saying. Instead of a damage percentage applied to a facility that it must work off, it's just a generic production points system? That's actually a bit easier to calculate (while making a lot more sense, too). In fact, we wouldn't even really need to do any fancy math for ...

<t> A few more questions, then, just so that I'm sure I understand what you're saying. Do your variables X and Y sum to 100? Or are you saying that production starts at 100 + 100 additional which is damaged (such that when fully repaired both sum to 200?). Also, 1% is repaired daily? Additionally ...

I'm back in math class! <br/>

Seriously ... great for spreadsheets. <br/>

Now, give an agreggate sum version of that so I can handle repairs of factories increasing production output over time at the expence of supplies ...

<t> Just to back up what Bradley and the others have said, there are also additional tools you can use to determine how many mines there will roughly be in the hex after decay.<br/>

You could also use the original equation for exponential growth and decay:<br/>

X=X0*e^(-r*n), where ...

<t> AdmiralLaurent, I think you may be onto something there. If the Navy and Marines use separate pilot pools, much like how bombers and fighters use separate pools, then its possible that the squadron isn't getting pilots because marine replacements haven't started, yet. Probably very similar to ...

<t> Yeah, this is just confusing for me because though it started with so few pilots, with no pilots being lost in other squadrons, and those other squadrons already being at full strength in terms of pilot numbers, there should be no reason for this air group not be be receiving more pilots. Unless ...

<t> I had indeed loaded the unit onto the Yorktown, but not a plane was ever damaged, and when I moved them there wasn't any splitting of the airgoup. I transferred them back onto Noumea just in case it was a problem with them being on the carrier causing them not to be getting replacements (didn't ...

<t> Hello all, I was just playing through a game (scenario 17), and noticed something a bit peculiar. It's not long into the scenario, and VMF-212 arrived at Noumea. Over the past few game weeks the squadron was topped off to twenty-four airplanes from whatever they originally came with, but for ...

There was a .PDF map that came with UV. I imagine there would also be a similar one with WitP, and that you could print it off just as easily.

<r> <QUOTE><s>[quote]</s>Yea, *but* a flaming wreak hitting you is just as effective ... <br/>

Not only does the flak have to kill the plane, it has to completely shred it to it doesn't make it to the ship. It is not as simple as you would think. Shooting it down is not a solution. One has ...

If dive bombers eat flak at 1000 feet, and torpedo bombers take flak at 500 feet, what range will kamikaze attacks take flak at? I would imagine that flak would be much more devastating for these pilots, flying into the very muzzles of the enemy guns as they were...

[edit]- Whoops!

So WitP will allow expansion of greater than 3 sizes above normal as it is in UV? Very interesting. I'm assuming it'll become proportionately more costly and time comsuming to do so, has it really turned out to be worthwhile?

<t>Yeah, the other nine ships did indeed show up in the AAR, but they showed as untouched. Do they only show up in the AAR if they're attacked? Every single group I watched was hitting their target with at least SOMETHING, even their .50s in many cases. Reading Apollo's thread it seems like we were ...

<t>Hello all, I'd first like to take the oppurtunity to introduce myself. I received my copy of UV a couple days ago after having bought it at the suggestion of a friend of mine. So far I'm loving it, and though I'm still a bit lost in the complexity in the game, I'm sure that same complexity will ...
