RE: War in the Pacific-Schematic Mode-The Chronology
I think the way you present your AAR is the best i have seen so far.Easy to read/difficult to get tired.
BTW any chance for industry info?How much you produce/what you produce/resources(including oil)levels?

RE: War in the Pacific-Schematic Mode-The Chronology
Many thanks ancient seaman.
In near future I will post the production dates in the month issues. Actually i have so many changes in aircraft production in the first weeks and some industries do not produce any plane yet.
Also, i will try post a brief inform in every carrier battle that happen. Of course in schematic mode.

RE: War in the Pacific-Schematic Mode-The Chronology
Very cool with this aircraft production here.May i ask to extend it for tanks and art pieces?
BTW did i say i very much like this AAR?[&o]
Why isnt anybody playing against the AI?Is it because AI is very bad or what?
You are researhing for A6M5 but not for A7M?I thought it was supposed to be a better plane,and what about improved dive and torpedo bombers for your CV units?I doupt you will be able to finish the war with Kate and Val.

RE: War in the Pacific-Schematic Mode-The Chronology
Yes, playing against de AI is very ungrateful to me. Some people say that the 1.3 versión have better AI but i don't know.. to play the war with some reality is better two brains[:D]
I'm researching the A7M and the D4Y, B6N and others modern planes like N1K1-J etc, but only show the planes with more points in advance, actually the Reppu has only 3 points in one factory...

RE: War in the Pacific-Schematic Mode-The Chronology
Love the AAR format. Really like the battle summary maps.[:D] Mandrakes was excellent but was probably too labour intensive to bother with anymore. Spent more time onAAR than on game perhaps. His maps were excellent overlaid on historical maps of thetime.

RE: War in the Pacific-Schematic Mode-The Chronology
Thx Ron.
I Know the Mandrake work, is a wonderful AAR.
Yes, Mandrake perhaps spent more time in AAR that on game. Just like me.
Actually i spent 2 hours writing dates, missions, excel sheets, and other control forms for each one in play. A very lot of time but i like it.
