RE: Advance building Jap CV's

<t> Ships that are due in days = to over 10x construction cost don't use any shipbuilding points. Accelerated ships out over 10x cost just the construction cost. Those 68 point carriers cost 68 points each to accelerate 1 day until they reach 680 days and then they cost 204 points each per day.<br ...

Each one will repair 1 point provided that you have >10k supply + 1k supply points to spend on each one.

RE: Best Use of Japanese ASW

<t> I think a little bit of everything works best. I escort important convoys with PCs or small DDs when available and use most of the Jap floatplanes for spotting subs. <br/>

RE: Whoa A6M3a with range of 11

Ya, they clipped the wingtips on the A6m3-32 to reduce it's wing aspect ratio and improve high speed roll rate, reducing fuel capacity and lift in the trade-off, hence the shorter range. It was carrier capable though, but is broken in WITP and shore-bound. They should fix it.

RE: Betty Bombers

I get SBD and Helldiver to drop 1000 LB AP almost all of the time if the victims are in normal range. Level bombers aren't supposed to load 1000 LB AP. USAAF didn't have them in their inventory. Sinking warships was the Navy's job.

RE: Logic and Reasonable Argument

<t> My favourite part of reasonable arguement comes in 339 BC, after Athenians vote 280-221 that Sokrates is guilty of impiety. During deliberations about what his fine should be, Sokrates' "reasonble arguements" pissed off the Athenians so bad that they voted 441-60 to just kill him in lieu of a ...

ORIGINAL: Enforcer

I really hope that the beta team can add something in the game to STOP the OVERLOADING of AF's

A lvl 7 AF with 900 planes is just crazy !!

A stack of fast BBs is a good cure sometimes.

RE: Logic and Reasonable Argument

Jim and Bones would always get a pained look on their faces when Spock started up with his logic Yada-Yada. Kind of like they would like to poke a pointy stick in Spock's eye.

I guess ... that's what I make of it.

RE: How does the game handle Flotation?

It seems to me that after port size, crew experience is the biggest factor for influencing damage rolls ... it's why heavily damaged low exp merchantmen almost always sink unless they are very close to a size 4+ port whereas higher exp warships fare a lot better.
