Here is the AAA defense you requested me to post.
![]()
This is the unit which is causing damage to aircraft from as low as 2000 ft (A 24s) to 16000 ft (B-17s). Martins attacking at 5000 ft and B-25s at 8000 ft are all being damaged/destroyed. I don't see any "flak GAP" other than whatever limitations exist as per the various types of AA guns.
Do you have a problem with the AA Bill? You are losing quite a few aircraft to flak yourself.

RE: Bill (IJ) vs Ron (Allies): An examination of Supply and Fuel using CHS 1.06
Very unusual to see Allied LCU bombardment attacks having half the guns that the Japanese have causing casualties.
Usually the rounds go straight up and fall back down on their own troops.[:D]

Please separate supply from resources, at least make it editor friendly.
So, Singapore manages to last until may 5th 42 in this PBEM. Manila has made it past the historical surrender of Bataan date of May 8th, 1942. Alot of different elements may have led to this. Did Bill commit enough in Malaya and Luzon? Were Allied forces maximized? Did Bill not blockade either adequately? Should Bill have bombed the bases to reduce supply instead of attacking individual LCUs? Is something wrong with the land combat design?
Well, perhaps a bit of everything. I believe Bill committed enough forces on the Malay Peninsula and Luzon. I don't think Bill adequately isolated either base. LR CAP should at the very least have been flown over Singapore and more subs used to straitjacket the approaches to both Manila and Singapore. Alot of supplies were flown in from Toboali by flying boats and from Palembang by C47s and lesser transport aircraft. As a result, Singapore (and to a lesser degree Manila) benefitted from a constant influx of supply. In the case of Singapore, resources were sent in a little as well, sealift permitting. At one point Singapore had over 60,000 supply. Had I been a real gamey prick, I would have left all LCUs toggled to ALLOW REPLACEMENTS and Singapore would be next to impenetrable, at least it would still be Allied.
But Bill could not interdict the real culprit...equal generation of supply to resources at resource centres. As stated throughout this AAR, Singapore and Manila, the entire DEI and Phillipines for that matter, have been built up and sustained by supply ORIGINATING in non manufacturing centres, resource bases, ONLY. Not a single point of supply was shipped in from manufacturing centres or entrepots from offmap production regions. This is simply wrong any way one slices it and it plays havoc with the replacement design in the game.
A few people are adamant that this is not a problem, Mogami is a notable. My point is how can it NOT be a problem when replacements are provided for any unit if a base has adequate supply and the device in question is available in the pool, but this supply comes from centres where only basic agrarian and resource products are produced? By having supply available equal to resources, the design basically has removed the need to import supply from manufacturing centres, a fundamental practice which makes the abstract replacement model work in a sensible fashion.
I'm all for separating the hard coded ratio of supply to resources. Make it a variable in the editor. That way the scenarios can be modified so that the majority of supply, say 75% or so, is military and is produced in manufacturing centres either on map or arrives in on map entrepots like Aden, Panama, San Francisco etc while the remaining percentage is general, like food, and can be found at resource centres in a much smaller amount than is currently possible without gutting resources as would be the case now. (Supply is supply, I'm not advocating more than one type, I'm just saying that the majority of supply should originate in manufacturing centres, not resource centres, so that, in order to build up enough supply at any base to allow TOE replacements, the supply need be shipped in, making the model work as designed.)
To further tie up shipping, I'd make supply, resource, fuel and oil generation at these base edge entrepots like Middle East, Panama almost entirely dependent on how many tankers and cargo ships are left disbanded in those respective ports.
