Hello , I have recently started a new game with this mod as the allies and WOW its very different than DaBabes (my usual mod)
Getting spanked doing my normal stuff ,, so having to re think virtually everything, I could play the game 90% asleep before
not anymore !

So thank you very much for utterly revitalising the best game ever !


EDIT - I meant to ask are there any art files for the new ships and planes , was odd seeing my invisible CVL's
sinking off Port moresby and the stealth G5 over china is terrifying :)
sorry for the spelling . English is my main language , I just can't type . and i'm too lazy to edit :)

All the art files are on the RA Site. Click the link at the bottom of the Post and go to the art page. EVERYTHING your heart desires is there! [:'(]

Thanks for the nice words. Took a lot of people a long time to create all four Mods.

Which are you playing?

John - I found the Indian 44th and 45th Brigades - I think that is their number cannot be rebuilt as the toe seems to show as empty on the destroyed unit screen so you cannot re build - is that a problem or error?

Just hit a rather serious refit glitch with the Bogue class CVEs. For six straight turns the refit has restarted each turn adding cumulative damage.
In a few more turns the Pearl shipyard will have the dubious glory of having sunk two American CVEs.
Culled operations reports here and secreen shots of the last four turns will follow.

OPERATIONAL REPORT FOR Oct 26, 43
CVE Tangier beginning refit in shipyard at Pearl Harbor
CVE Pocomoke beginning refit while under repair in shipyard at Pearl Harbor

OPERATIONAL REPORT FOR Oct 27, 43
CVE Tangier beginning refit while under repair in shipyard at Pearl Harbor
CVE Pocomoke beginning refit in shipyard at Pearl Harbor

OPERATIONAL REPORT FOR Oct 28, 43
CVE Tangier beginning refit while under repair in shipyard at Pearl Harbor
CVE Pocomoke beginning refit while under repair in shipyard at Pearl Harbor

OPERATIONAL REPORT FOR Oct 29, 43
CVE Tangier beginning refit in shipyard at Pearl Harbor
CVE Pocomoke beginning refit in shipyard at Pearl Harbor

OPERATIONAL REPORT FOR Oct 30, 43
CVE Tangier beginning refit in shipyard at Pearl Harbor
CVE Pocomoke beginning refit while under repair in shipyard at Pearl Harbor

OPERATIONAL REPORT FOR Oct 31, 43
CVE Tangier beginning refit while under repair in shipyard at Pearl Harbor
CVE Pocomoke beginning refit while under repair in shipyard at Pearl Harbor

One or two turns should be sufficient to sink them. Of course I didn't bother to remove the planes as I have a plethora of carriers in pearl getting ready to escort the Big Blue Fleet across the Pacific to deliver 500K supplies, 250K fuel and troops to Shanghai so I can supply the combined Chinese/American drive into Manchukuo.
I will lode the air squadrons along with the carriers and of course, I will not allow any more Bogue class carriers to refit.

Most fixes have not worked for a current game and require a restart. I am almost 700 turns in now and only a month or so away from my offensive in Manchukuo so I am not going to cash it in over this.

Will supply a saved game tomorrow is that will help.

Hans, this is what I reported above. It has been fixed in version 2.4, but as you noted, it can not be fixed without a restart.

Didn't realize your post meant the 21 upgrades would happen consecutively restarting each turn and adding the refit damage cumulatively.

This is a major disaster for the class.

Oh well, almost 700 turns in now and I'm not gonna scrap it over this. Will just have to live with the loss and NOT allow another Bogue class to upgrade.

Hans, you can set the upgrade to no while it is in refit.

Go to the base. click on ships anchored.
Click on the second line of the third column at the bottom( the one that says "Show ships under repair").
Then click on the ship in question and set the upgrade to no.

Long delay in replying John , thanks for the art link and we are playing Between The Storms with a few HR's like no fuel hauling on AK's ( Commonwealth has to Use AKL's for short hops due to a lack of YO's ).
Several night rules , all of which I forget atm [:)].

I cant believe the Land TOE is so wildly different to DaBabes or Stock , Great work indeed.
WE keep discovering new things and are really really bad at Op-Sec ( we (namely me ) talk way to much ).

Worked fine Bill.

Thanks for the reminder.

I almost never use that interface anymore as the "Manage Ships...." interface is so much more useful...at least in most respects.
