If you need any advice on the AI file construction happy to support.

OK this last thing is purely a matter of personal taste

I dont like the naming convention used in this scenario for allied Divs.

Others disagree i.e 7th Australian Div/28th Bde - I dont like

I prefer 28th Australian Bde

Minor point merely a personal preference (if you are going one way or the other you need to change name of 5th Aus Div to meet you convention)

Amercal doesnt have a recombine option is that deliberate ??

Air HQ's in small map scenarios the lack of Allied Air HQ's is a problem - in the large maps its not a problem because you have choice where to deploy them

In these types of scenarios I think you may need to include US Group HQ's (similar to RAF Group HQ's) I did this in the Marianas scenario because the allies needed the capability - I would consider adding a few.

Thanks everyone

I think Thorongil only expected it to be a PBEM scenario - for now, he didn't do anything to the AI scripts. But I guess that could be another development. If possible, a combination of Coral sea script and the Guadalcanal one may be interesting.

We would also glad if someone could provide some info about the A-24 groups in the area for the duration of the scenario. We know there were some over NG in July, but the UV scenario put them in PM as early as May, and I don't seem to remember that any of them were deployed back then...?

Hi everybody [:)]

Désolé pour le français, mais mon anglais n'étant pas terrible je préfère communiqué avec cette langue [:)]



Suivant les remarques d'Andy Mac que Fishbed ma communiqué j'ai apporté des changements :


Remplacement des Wirraways par des A-24 a PM avec 5 avions par mois en remplacement
Possibilité de fusionner les rgts des divisions d'infanterie pour former la division(dans les deux camps).
j'ai renommé les brigades australiennes et enlevé le suffix de la division.
Un QG aérien avec torpille ordonnance pour l'allié.

Hi Thorongil,

                   Nice scenario. Why did you make some american sqadrons in regiments ? Is it not better if you divide them into squadrons ? Better flexibility ?

Thorongil

My French is worse than your English so this will be difficult.

I had a look at the scenario its an exceptinal piece of work.

I am doing my own version of this scenario that I promplty ditched after I saw yours bnecause yours was much better.

Before I tackle an AI file I went through and checkecd the LCU's for things like TOE, devices etc - this one was based off of WITP and the Guad scen both of which are from an earlier evolution of WITP and the TOE's dont always match the final versions of AE.

I therefore took your land and device file and updated them for the latest TOE's and device data (a lot of your devices were the old devices in the 400 - 600 range these are no longer in use so Imoved them to the 700 range.

I also reorganised the LCU's for both sides to make it easier to write an AI file.

Atttached are the amended files as done by me - if I get time to do an AI file I will be using these locations for the AI file.

With your permission I will be using your scen as the basis for my own mod of this campaign

Andy

Hi che200 [:)]

I resumed(took back) just "word for word" Oob of the scenario South Pac de WITP seen by a PBME, it is Fishbed who seeing works him(it) advised(recommended) me to put him(it) on the forum Matrix to correct the errors and share it the communité who would be interested.

To answer has your question I shall say that it is for the fléxibilté.

Saddened for approximate English, I use an on-line translator.[:(]

What Thorongil said that Fishbed passed him the Andy's remarks and that he made some changes accordingly.

At PM, A-24 were substituted for the Wirraways with 5 replacements per month.

Both sides can now Infantry Regiments into Divisions

Australian brigades' suffix are corrected (were "Division")

One Air HQ have been added to provide Torpedoes to the Allied side.


Any further remarks will be welcomed.
