RHS Ver 7.68 Wake Japanese landing force

Post by Fletcher »

Hi everybody, I am very interesting in RHS Mod Ver 7.xx and I dowload recently, but when I study over map, I have met the following:

-Scen 70 (RHSCV) AND Scen 71 (RHSAO -soviets active-), the IJN Maizuru 2nd SNLF is NOT aboard the transports ships to head to Wake, instead of this unit is marching(??) to Wake from Kwajalein.
-In the same scenarios, IJN Sasebo NGF has 232 planning points on Wake !! is it a bug?

Thanks in advance, and sorry for my poor english !

Unable to confirm. This problem is not present at source. However - the Sasebo NGF - really sent to Wake for the first failed invasion attempt - should be planned for something else. In EOS - the Sasebo SNLF which really made the second Wake landing is the one sent for the first one - and it is working properly.

If I remember correctly, it was the Maizuru 2nd SNLF that made the Wake landing and not one of the Sasebo SNLF's[&:].

Possibly I got senile when doing entry - but I thought I had looked it up when assigned. Or possibly sources differ. Almost no one in the West wrote from the official history - which was written long after the war (indeed was still adding volumes last I heard) - and which almost no one read after it was written either. [It is over 100 volumns long - the total keeps changing - and it is very hard to read - boring as tax code - but nevertheless necessary - as lots of details we had wrong]

Picture taken after 1st historical turn in Scen 70 RHSCV Ver 7.68. IJN combat units at Wake but not landing forces or transports !
The naval group at Wake is a "Transport TF" with CL Tenryu, CL Tatsuta, CL Yubari, CL Kongo Maru (AMC), DD Mutsuki, DD Kisaragi, DD Yayoi, DD Mochizuki, DD Oite and DD Hayate.
Distanced traveled by 2nd SNLF MAIZURU from Kwajalein : 1 MILE !!!!

I could not duplicate this issue in 7.68 - but it does not exist any more. Try 7.69 - which is better behaved in several respects.

For some reason - CVO is missing 4 AP and 1 AK from TF 16. These probably are set to EOS scenario TF instead of CVO scenario TF. Will investigate. I know the ship identities - it is a matter of finding them (ships are not listed by slot number).

I now have this done - but am waiting for other issues to be reported - or discovered by tests - before issuing. For example, I found a HQ that should be in a different place at a different time was at Kwajalein in non EOS scenarios - planned up for Oahu!

will issue shortly 7.681 microupdate - ship and location files only - mainly for non EOS scenarios - but adding a few USN LSTs (or correcting date / location of appearence to AKWarrior standards).
