Hi,

Talking about micromanagement : is there a way to transfer all the ships in a task force to another task force without having to click on the ships individually in the former task force? [:'(]

I do like the fragment element part of the game.   It makes you plan more, then the problems  of  linking up.  I agree with you guys, but again myself I like the it.

Nope.

As for the transport bug in 1.804, I too have noticed it. I have even gone as far as seen a unit completely loaded leave a fragment (dont ask me how). I loaded the 40th div by leaving the ships in SF with "do not unload" until the unit was fully loaded, and then sent them on their way. Next turn, there was 2000 APs worth in SF that I had to load on another couple of ships.

I'm glad to read this - I thought I was going mad when exactly the same thing happened to me. Coincidentally it was exactly the same division!

I was under the impression that larger air transports would move larger components. Playing RHSEOS as the Japanese, I'm converting as many transport groups as I can to the G5Ns just for this reason.

I don't have fragment problems in 1.804. I over-allocate transports to ensure all the unit is loaded. In addition, I do not set a destination until the entire unit is loaded (set Do Not Unload). If the TF stops loading with a fragment left unloaded, I load it on another TF then merge them.

I do the same thing! No fragments then!
