Drachinifel, and Sal from What's Going On with Shipping, talk about US Navy (and Army) logistics during the Pacific war.

Welcome Back!

Recently returned to the game myself. The old geezers have returned.

Thanks for the replies.

I think for now I'm just going to finish the current Scen #100 campaign in v26 before messing with v28. The changes to the map in v28 make some parts of my current campaign incompatible with it anyway.

If I'm understanding correctly, v28 is meant to be installed over v26 ...

Just started playing again after some years away and already started another Scen #100 campaign. Only revisited the forums days ago and I wasn't expecting another update. This is a nice surprise.

With all the changes, will Halsey's and Cathartes' ship and rotating plane art merge correctly with ...

I'm still hanging around, though lurking more than anything else.

First got involved when I bought Uncommon Valor: CftSP at Fry's in Concord, CA. I still have the CD in the garage somewhere. I can distinctly visualize the memory of picking it up from the store shelf, the store lighting, even some ...

After renaming an applicable ship while it's still in the future availability queue, and after it's eventual arrival, is there any way of changing the ship's name again?

Thanks.

Any ideas on how to keep B-29s flying? They seem to take forever to repair or maintain. <br/>

I am keeping them at Level 9 fields {Formosa}. I have above the minimum air support. Does ...

<r> I suspect it's a bug, miscalculated coefficient, etc. of some kind. Ops losses are inevitable but frankly the C-47 losses are ridiculous.<br/>
<br/>
Literally all other transport groups on the entire map go unused or are stuck with training, including 272 Fifth AF C-47s in the SW Pacific ...

I am playing as the Allies against the Japanese. Right now I have been making my convoys large enough to dock in the port they are headed to, but I was wondering if it is better to just run massive convoys instead. Right now I can only ...

Silly me. I thought changing routing for off-map TFs results in routing errors.

Sounds like you have been checking pilot fatigue but not plane fatigue. Click on the "Planes" hypertext at the bottom of the squadron screen. The game will automatically take heavily fatigued planes off-line for servicing, but long before they get ...

Quick question, when you are in the air group screen and you set mission to training and it shows 'Patrol Level' and below 'Train <NUM>' with the widget to inc and dec. Is the number there the % that will train and the remaining % will fly ...

Many transport planes are among the least durable two-engine aircraft in the game.<br/>

First, check exp of your pilots. Air group average may be 55 exp, but if you check the pilots some of them will be in 45-50 exp range. Weed them out ...

You can try setting the squadrons on 20-30% rest.

I've done that. Sometimes even 50% when the need isn't so great. And all squadrons have surplus crews, filled to max.

<t> One of the things I've wondered but never bothered to ask is why are C-47, C-46s, etc. ops loss rates so consistently high.<br/>
<br/>
Going into 1944 playing as Allies vs AI, Andy's Scen #100, and noticed that the C-47 total losses in the war so far are second only behind P-40s. While most of ...
