<t> That's true, they are especially crazy about Starcraft, they have tv channels only showing SC tournaments. Some months ago I saw a documentary about it, they followed a young Canadian guy around who had moved to Korea because he could make a living there only from playing SC plus he was treated ...

<r> <QUOTE><s>[quote]</s>But I think for unit with *no* engineer squads shock attack is only alternative to reduce fort level.<e>[/quote]</e></QUOTE>
That's wrong, a 1 to 1 deliberate attack will destroy one fort. If a fort is destroyed by combat engineers it will read like this "Japanese engineers ...

The US BF's that have the combat engineers are two digit ones.<br/>
52 BF, 72 BF, etc. These also have large aviation/support organic to them.<e>[/quote]</e></QUOTE>
I guess I'm overlooking something, first I checked the 72nd BF in the scen.15 ...

Could you give an example of a Base Force with combat engineers?

That way you didn't get any amphib bonus from the HQ. HQ ranges are counted differently than aircraft ranges, HQ range 1 equals aircraft range 0, so you have to be in the same hex.

he was probably looking for those tiny thai girls with small boo....

Boats?

Sorry, you are right. I never noticed that change.

Not entirely correct, if your ready aircraft don't fly they won't draw pilots.

Sounds like an air HQ to me.

<r> I remember another thread about the very same thing by Apollo. Hope this link works.<br/>

<t> Your new LCUs will shock attack after crossing the river. There were numerous discussions about that, maybe it will change in future patches.<br/>

I think the numbers are AV modified AV, but I'm not sure. The important numbers to watch are the AV and modified AV of all units together for ...

<t> I don't use auto convoy so I don't know how well it works. CS missions always load supplies and fuel automatically so they are not of much help for resource and oil transportation. I prefer to create big well-protected convoys, it's a bit more work doing it manually but at least I know what's ...

According to the FAQ leaders can get better.

<t> That's really personal preference and depending on your long term strategy. I tend to evacuate some specialized non combat troops but usually let all infantry units fight to the death. As the Allied player you are basically trading VPs for time, if your troops can hold off the Japs for a time it ...

<r> <QUOTE><s>[quote]</s>Here's my question: Is it possible that the AI is gaming me? By that I mean, could the AI pick arbitrary targets to plan for, in order to force my units to scramble over half the Pacific?<e>[/quote]</e></QUOTE>
I highly doubt that the AI uses distraction tactics. Perhaps ...

More precisely USS Essex hit by a kamikaze blimp.

Putting a Naval HQ, or ANY Hq into akyab might just do the trick.

How could a HQ other than naval help? AFAIK neither supplies nor support are needed for ship repairs.

Chandpur is only 2.5 days away as your ships will make at least one hex per phase not per turn. So I would go for it but in other areas where bigger ports are farther away I consider a size 4 port acceptable for putting out fires and pumping out water.

<t> If I remember the last production threads correct then there are 2 errors:<br/>
HI produces 1 fuel not 1.33 and 1 HI point uses 1 res and 1 oil, not 2 of each.<br/>

I don't really understand your 2nd question. Regarding nr.3 I don't know what the resource pool is supposed to mean, haven ...

Make the background blue and it looks like one of the pics Sharkosaurus posted recently.
