Need some assistance...

Post by Ron Saueracker »

Hi guys. Anyone have access to old wargames or texts which list the max launch/landing rates per hour of the CVs in the game? AHs Flat top has them I believe. Jim Dunnigan's Victory at Sea book has a listing for sure. If anyone has this can you post the table? My copy is in storage.

Thanks

Ron

Ron,
 
I have Flattop.  I have a card with Max Capacity, Launch Factor and Ready Factor.
 
Is that what you are looking for?

Yep. [&o] But anyone who has Dunnigan's VIP tables is really desired.

Thanks again,

Now to remember what the factors mean. Been a long time. Basically I'm trying to get a handle on hourly aircraft launch/landing capacities of each CV.

BIIIIIIG yellow map as I recall.

To counter the cat, some company made these little magnetic clips to hold the counters, and then you just mounted your "monster game O the Year" onto a sheet of metal and hung the thing on a wall....
Worked wonders.....
Got some of Dunnigans' works, but not that one.

Maybe Matrix should look into marketing some of those wargamers books???????[:)]

Uh huh. I remember a very memorable battle with a g/f who had a problem with it being left out on the kitchen table for days. Good thing I got rid of her!

There is a chapter which deals with aircraft carrier efficiency and tables which indicate the various capabilities of all CVs built. I'd like the table with the CV efficiency data. I have the book as well but it has been shipped and I can't access it as a result.

irrelevant, Halsey, Halsey's Chief of Staff, and SPI's Wacht am Rhein in counter-clips, circa 1986. We had thousands of the things. Played WitP that way too; no good pix, though.
