Luskan's been drinking again. [:D]
RE: Surface intercept mania
Beer makes you smart. [X(]
I'm not retreating, I'm attacking in a different direction!
RE: Surface intercept mania
erm, well you do a turn at 3am in the morning and something like this is bound to happen. Unfortunately it was deliberate. Bigger Badder Mamma just got sidelined due to the West virginia sinking. That was irritating (the flak didn't do a real good job either). I was going to bombard kwajalein and then run like a girl.
With dancing Bananas and Storm Troopers who needs BBs?
RE: Surface intercept mania
Hey you've ran Japan enough to know Kwajalean is one of the best defended bases on the map at start.
I'm not retreating, I'm attacking in a different direction!
RE: Surface intercept mania
Yes - but I had assumed that your nells would have moved - I never leave my level bombers in the same place for too many weeks because then the allied player knows how to evade them. Wake, Rabaul etc.
I still haven't got this turn (the one you've posted above) I want to see if the West Virginia really sank or if she is just a bit scratched . . .

RE: Surface intercept mania
sending again right now. Was sent first time at 1:37pm est.
I'm not retreating, I'm attacking in a different direction!
RE: Surface intercept mania
OK - turn I received was last turn (west virginia unsunk) so have resent the turn without entering any orders. If all goes well, you'll resink west virginia this turn and we'll continue.

Kwajalean
It appears the USN has opted to commit suicide. Another USN BB sunk at Kwajalean. (The bombardment did sink a Japanese I boat)

Concur. Thanks for testing that one for me, Luskan.
I have recently seen reference in the forum to building CD units, which I had not seen before. I would guess you need engineers. Question: is there a limit as to how strong you can make a CD? And how does the game calculate how many of what caliber guns a CD would have at any given time? Or am I misunderstanding something?
Luskan, how are Repulse and POW doing with the holes in their sides?
RE: Surface intercept mania
I have recently seen reference in the forum to building CD units, which I had not seen before. I would guess you need engineers. Question: is there a limit as to how strong you can make a CD? And how does the game calculate how many of what caliber guns a CD would have at any given time? Or am I misunderstanding something?
Someone has been pulling your leg. There is no *building* anything in this game. It is all about historical units with historical OOB and historical equipment.
RE: Surface intercept mania
In another AAR Luskan said he was installing CD guns at Singapore. That is banana talk for "I moved a CD unit to Singapore"
I'm not retreating, I'm attacking in a different direction!

Leave it to the peel to confuse people. [:D]
RE: Surface intercept mania
Repulse is ok - POW on the other hand is a bit low in the water these days.
As for Kwajalein . . . well 3 bbs had a go (I had plenty undamaged from pearl) and I lost 2 of them. As well as a half dozen dds, and the odd cruiser or two. Nothing serious - I did sink that I-boat, which was the whole point. I also sanka couple of his dds (or at least mauled them) and more importantly discovered that his cvs aren't there either.
Valuable intelligence gathering.
Those of you who had apoplectic fits when in my first alpha aar I bombarded manila and singapore and got away with it should be happy.

With dancing Bananas and Storm Troopers who needs BBs?

RE: Surface intercept mania
From the looks of the AAR, Kwajalein Atoll seems to have had one very tough CD
unit. The results seem more effective that the ones obtained when the Japanese
tried to bombard Singapore in another thread. Is this the way it seemed to the
Players?

Questions on CD units -
Lets take those that were installed at Rabaul for example. In the game is there a unit due to appear called "Rabaul CD unit" or is it a original military name such as "5th Kure CD Rgt"? Am I right in thinking that every CD unit that was used at whatever base is 'built' in game and appears in either Japan/America etc and THEN has to be moved to whatever Island you want to?
If so how would it work with the big guns that were installed on certain islands like Iwo or Okinawa for example? Are big big guns transportable by the normal AP method?
Do CD units upgrade as other guns were added to them or caliber increase overtime?

RE: Surface intercept mania
I'm with Mike on this one. A CD unit that can sink two battleships has got some massive stuff - big enough to hole a BB. I admit right up front that I have not a wit of an idea what was actually located on Kwajalein, but I fear that at least this one CD may be overdone. Do the playtesters believe that the results are consistent with the artillery WitP lists for that CD?
I'm also still a little confused (anyone [X(] surprised?) about the moving the CD thing. Okay, so you can't build CDs, but you can move them? I'm picturing massive concrete structures and guns ala Singapore/Corregidor. Or are there both fixed (Singapore) and "mobile" (towed guns, howitzers, and rifles) CDs?
