[quote]ORIGINAL: Andy Mac

KB came back the Ceylon again must have retured to rearm - I got cocky and tried to run a convoy in and it cost me....

A part of KB is also raiding Midway

Halsey is down int he South Pacific covering New Caledonia I am badly out of position if this is serious




Andy, I thought of something here reading this that had always disappointed me in the original WITP (and ruined it for me). I hope it wasn't only attributed to the mods (RHS/CHS) I was playing, I really can't remember, but when I played against the Japanese AI the KB (and possibly other TFs) would exhaust their fuel on a mission and then limp back to a major port (in the home islands if I recall) at the minimum speed for a zero fuel TF. Have you or any others playing against the AI noticed if this is still the case in AE?

Please excuse me if this has already been address somewhere here in the millions lines of comments of the forum.
