RE: OH crap my recon stinks !!!
OK whats happened
1. Diego Garcia Secured
2. Efate and Luganville Recaptured
3. Canton Island Recaptured
4. Cox Bazaar Captured
So far so good - only problem the Japanese werent trying to fight I was attacking more or less empty bases - I was suckered.
In Burma looks like the AI has 2 Divs dug in at Imphal - That means I will need 4 to shift them - I dont have 4 I can commit.
Akyab looks like it has a couple of Divs a s well Cox Bazaar was an empty sack

RE: OH crap my recon stinks !!!
Oh and after one stalled offensive by the militia men of the NZ Bdes (only one Bde was from 3rd NZ Div the others were home defence Bdes) I sent an Amercal RCT in to support em they have started marching up to Kourmac again.
Next job get aircover and base forces into Luganville and then go for Lunga
My Carriers are going to hit Baker Island 1st in support of the landing there and then head to New Cal for the next attack on Lunga

RE: OH crap my recon stinks !!!
I haven't been reading the reorts in any real detail - sooo much information, and you're cranking it out faster than I can read it.
Do I see that the Japanese have invaded Midway, have invested most of the New Hebrides, as well as Canton and Baker Islands? Very aggressive, which will make the early war very challenging for the Allied human player.
Is the AI stout enough to know these are outposts and to not defend these too hard? I've got a concern that the AI is programmed to be aggessive and expand, which will result in nothing more than the Japanese getting over-extended. This could permit the Allied player an easier march back because the Japanese main defensive line has been too weakened to man these forward bases.

RE: OH crap my recon stinks !!!
it looks like the AI took some of these forward bases but then pulled back immediately, so Andy is now assaulting into a vacuum. Good move really - delays Andy, but with minimum loss to AI.
RE: OH crap my recon stinks !!!
Yup it over committed in New Cal a little and is about to get spanked for it but it Sir Robined before I was ready to take em in other locations
RE: OH crap my recon stinks !!!
[:D][:D][:D] No questions !!!!
I have beaten the forum into submission with data overload ....
9 months of turns in a week !!!
I am not good at pretty pictures but in general with me being passive I think the Ai has done ok.
That raid on Ceylon was nasty and shredded the RAF's few Hurricane Sqns.
The capture of Imphal leaves me with a nasty problem as there are c 2 IJA Divs at both Akyab and Imphal and I will need to uncover something vital in order to kick em out.
What this has proven to me is that India is more vulnerable in AE than I probably realised despite the large numbers of units in India the scale of what you need to cover and the raw ability of the early Japanese Divs to defeat militia and lower xp allied troops means that an Allied player will still need to watch India carefully.
I have 4 Bdes on Ceylon and I worry about it.
2 Divs building up at Madras
3 British and about 3 Indian Divs in or around Assam/Calcutta
I have lots of smaller garrison forces but thats the bulk of my mobile force and a lot of the firepower has only just arrived.
Overcommitting to Burma or Java will leave India vulnerable unless you decide to send the Aussies to India

RE: OH crap my recon stinks !!!
Oh! So you wanted questions![:D]
1. Where is heck is the AI getting all the troops for this expansion and manning this locations?
2. Where is the AI getting the supplies/fuel to supply these invasions?
3. Is the AI providing supplies to all of these locations?
4. Could you build an allied fleet with 2 Divisons and sail into Manila or Java and take it?
5. It seems air raids get more hits in bad weather?
Weather in hex: Moderate rain
Raid spotted at 41 NM, estimated altitude 9,000 feet.
Estimated time to target is 17 minutes
Japanese aircraft
B5N2 Kate x 8
No Japanese losses
Airbase supply hits 1
Runway hits 13
6. Haven't seen air raids canceled due to weather, not reported?
7. Is seems very rare that infantry squads are destroyed in air raids, most of the time you just see non-combat, engineers destroyed.

RE: OH crap my recon stinks !!!
Also, I think you said you're playing on "Hard." Are there still three victory levels, as in stock? (Historical, Hard, Very Hard.) Do they mean the same thing? At Hard, the AI gets logistical advantages but no combat advantages?

RE: OH crap my recon stinks !!!
1. Ummm the AI uses what it has and for some rear area forces that must be garriosned it borrows them from other restricted commands <whistles innocently> (the AI does not use PP's instead some units are just free issue to it)
2. Actually it follwos the rules on supplies there is a small fuel cheat for TF's to avoid them being crippled by out of fuel but in general the AI plays by the same rules you do.
3. Yes more or less it doesnt stockpile the way a player will but it does ok
4. Please try it - pretty please (remember what I said about borrowed forces from restricted commands its not overly evident in the initial expansion - it becomes quite apparent if you try that kind of behavious early on [:-][:-][:-] - remmeber LAND MINES
5. 6 and 7 - No, Not reported and yes inf destroyed as well
Grotius no combat benefits on harder difficulty levels there are a few economic benefits for the AI especially in aircraft production and R&D

RE: OH crap my recon stinks !!!
p.s. remember I am constantly tweaking the AI file to try and make it better.
One of the main challenges is to NOT make the AI overextend.
If the AI overextends it dies - folks want the AI to invade all of India or all of Australia will result in a very short game.

RE: OK SITREP
Not a lot happneing Chittagong is building up and I am moving some USAAF air groups to India
IV Corps is losing 5th British Div to Middle East so I probably don't have the strength to kick the Japanese out of Imphal yet not until XV Corps can deal with Akyab
Other forces are returning after the conquest of Canton and garrison forces are en route
Next up is Guadalcanal...
