I noticed it, but it went way over my head. I'm a fan, but I guess I haven't seen it all.

Brad,

Check out the credits that roll at the beginning of Monty Python & the Holy Grail. I think I only remember because my first exposure to Python was as a kid when a friend dragged me off to see the Holy Grail at a theatre in Cambridge, Massachusetts. The first thing I saw were these credits, with references to "Moose Costumes" and the "Person responsible for sacking the person responsible for the credits has been sacked."

I've been traumatized ever since.

No need to be modest Blackhorse - you helped with the map too...

Yep, I helped, in the same way that lots of people helped Michaelangelo paint the Sistine Chapel. But history justly records that as his masterpiece -- and these maps, justly, are yours.

I am new to CHS and I have a few quick questions;

The Japanese NLF units did not have a TOE and most were listed as (9000/9000) for % of the unit disrupted. Does this mean that these units do not get replacements? If so, why was this done? I could not find anything in the documentation.

Thanks

The TO&E is set by the unit itself when the unit does not point to a standard TO&E. So to answer your question the unit will receive replacements upto its starting values.

Is (or has) Subchaser done a map for CHS? I really like his map and would love to see a version of it for CHS. Hopefully my next PBEM will be in CHS and it would be nice to have the same style of map that I am used to looking at.

There are 36,010,215 pixels in the map. Therefore it does take a while to edit :)

In the meantime I'll do some radar research and see if I can make any useful suggestions for CHS 1.06. From what little I have read, the type 21 was a surface and air detection units, (better range for air though) and the type 22 could do both as well, but was more of a surface & gunnery units. I haven't checked yet, but I'm curious to see how the ships that had radar IRL are laid out in the game. Since it would seem a radar is either air or surface (based on pen value of 0 or 500) I'm guessing that a single device can't be both. So perhaps have a type 21s, type 21a for suraface and air. Of course then you have issues where if one device gets damaged - IRL the whole unit would be gone, but in game it would still be half working.

In any case, I will do some research and take a look at what is already in the CHS database and maybe I can come up with something useful.
