My solution, a very simple one:
Victory points are counted for two things:
1) For occupying a base, of course different bases have different values for both sides, counted at end of every week.
2) A bonus for owning a whole region (for example, owning ALL the bases in the Philippine Islands), without the presence of any enemy forces. Make it a substantial bonus. Also counted at end of every week.
3) These point costs are time stamp based. For example, I foresee that owning the Philippine bases and Singapore in 1941-42 gives the Allied player a substantial point infusion.
This means that there are zero victory points for sinking enemy ships, shooting down airplanes or destroying enemy manpower. That is correct. Those are tools to accomplish your mission.
This solves many problems.
This should eliminate the "gaminess" of leaving Allied units in the Philippines by the Japanese player to get kamikazes sooner
like this very much

PS
I have said it before, and it bears repeating. This is the most badly organized forum for a game I have ever seen. Looking for information, even basic information, is a hassle.
Disagreed.
Not because the forum, as any Matrix forum, is particularly organized (which are not), but because this is ceirtanly not the worse organized one, actually very far from that, and if you hold so, means you really don't have knowledge of other forums, even of high quality games and companies.
