ORIGINAL: JuanG

Im a little curious as to what happened in that surface action Kongo and Haruna vs PoW.

Were told maximum nighttime visibility is ~12,000yards at present. Theres no contact mention of the Japanese becoming aware of the British force, while the British clearly have a radar contact.

And then the Japanese shoot first.

Isnt this a little odd? While I have no doubt the Japanese would have responded reasonably to such a night attack, the fact that they get they drop on the British here is pretty wierd.

One explanation I can think of is the British getting a little overzealous with their illumination rounds and proverbially shooting themselves in the foot.


Of course, on the otherhand in normal WitP I've seen Warspite singlehandedly trash both Fusos, Nagato and escorts in a night action in spring 42....



Otherwise though, I look forward to this, especially once you get into 42/43.

Thanks for taking your time.


Actually the message is just too imprecise. All ship combat is one-on-one and we issue a message for each "duel". There's some variety in the message based on a number of things (including random) - lest we have a constant stream of "x and y fight". The check that generated the message above looks like it could use a small adjustment. I'll put on a rubber glove and sneak up behind it....

I find it encouraging that people other than testers are doing AARs. It must mean that the design team believe that they have a finished product at hand!
