When I posted, I got a 504 Gateway timed out error. So I assumed it didn't post, tried two more times and gave up. I didn't realize it actually posted until today.

So, I’m dipping my toe back in the WITP:AE waters after an extended absence. I played Coral Sea Allies versus AI; Scen 12 Guadalcanal Allies versus AI; and just fired up Scen 12 Jap versus AI.

So, I'm dipping my toe back into WITP:AE after a long absence. Played Coral Sea as Allies versus AID, Scen 12 Guadalcanal; as Allies versus AI, and fired up Scen 12 Guad as Jap versus AI.

It could delay the allies if they had to take it back, assuming they would have to stop the daily VPs going to Japan while they held it.

No daily VPs for bases. (It would arguably be nice if there were)

So, if you're Allies and have a 1.99 ratio on September 1, 1945, you'd want to be sure to keep under that until the end of the game to get a Decisive Victory (i.e. you'd want to end up between 1.75 and 1.99 in March 1946). You pop the 2.0 ...

They will take months to rebuild but at least they keep their high exp ratings which they would have lost if they have been destroyed.

I thought replacement squads came in at the national average?

just post a picture of a tree that you took on a walk

I suppose CR could take a smallish ficus on a walk. (A bonsai would be even more practical, but could be interpreted as showing sympathy to the enemy.)

Another faithful reader, seldom contributor.

That said, with what we pay you for the writing, do what you want to do. Don't feel like you owe anyone anything.

erstad, with the command line flag enabled, the Turn Cycle can only be changed by the Japanese player, during their orders phase. Turn resolution from the previous day/days is already completed before you could change the number of days ...

<t> Has anyone tested: When you change the turn cycle from two days to one, is the one day you get is identical to the the first day of the two day cycle, does the act of changing modifies the seed in some way? <br/>

Wrong thread

<t> Why are your bases in India red for supply? Either you haven't been bringing enough supply in, or you have some bases set to hoard it all. Either way, that should be addressed. India shouldn't be in the red for supply.<br/>

You look pretty low in China too, but that could be more normal ...

Don't suppose you'd consider playing Japan? I'm looking to get back into a campaign game, but I'm probably looking to play Allies this time out. Would play any of the stock scenarios you cite.
