What is the point in having fixed baseforces?

Hi,
does anybody else think that morale checks for planes should be abolished in some cases, for example when specifically ordered to accomplish a specific mission. I don't mind low morale having an effect on the outcome of the mission, but not-flying at all is insubordination which should result in a visit to the firing-squad. The morale check might stay in place IMO when no target is selected (i.e. commanders decision), then the commander might deem, that a break is o.k. so he orders a no-flight for today. But when I say 'fly' the only answer should be 'Yes, Sir!', not 'ahhh, we don't feel like it today!'
rant off (cost me dearly yesterday)

A Wanted feature in combat record, and maybe in Ship sunk list as well:

to show my ship was sunk/damaged by which enemy ship/airplane...

This post is long so this may already be mentioned somewhere else. In the Production mode, I would like to see a screen that shows what was produced yesterday and the last month by location. I haven't found a screen that shows me that just totals.[&:]

One thing that has come out of playing Scenario #2 that would be nice is mid ocean intercepts. Having had several Japanese transports TF's steam past a few of my bases, where I had a Surface Combat TF set up to react, and had those TF's pass by unmolested as they weren't heading for a base was a little frustrating.

My wish is simple. Ya ya ya
I would like to see the highest ranking combat leaders, and/or maybe even the sub commander names listed in the combat reports.

Even if the enemy combat leader names are listed, not very realistic maybe, this would add a new dimension to the report.

Especially, if combat leaders could move up in rank or there abilities are improved.

On the all ground units screen, for LCU's outside of bases.

Add Support Needed/Support to the list at the top right.

That way a player won't have to add them up to check support levels.

Been mentioning that since UV days. Glad you brought it to Matrix attention again. It is one of those things which would make life simpler and is non-controversial.[8D]

This morale check is completely off base. We've been calling for its abolishment or replacement with something more workable for some time.

As long is it is not replaced with a morals check - I'd be in big trouble!

I've gone through several pages and haven't seen this yet...though it was discussed in the Japanese grand strategy thread...
1. IJA garrison requirements for all occupied territories (DEI, PI, India, Russia)
2. improved chinese and soviet oob (soviet units transferred to europe can be frozen in Irkutsk until activated).
3. irkutsk and karachi out of bounds to Japanese player to allow for allied buildup in case japanese player attempts board edge tactics
4. reduce amount of captured supply
5. improved rail movement system (faster for units actually being transported by available rolling stock, slower for the rest).

Here is another helpful one. How about a littlt pair of binoculars in the way upper right hand corner of the TF screen for any TF which has been spotted (or maybe only spotted by air and not by coast watchers). That way you wouldn't have to comb through the op reports to see if a TF/ship had been spotted. Would save tons of time and eyestrain.

A CVE in a replenishment TF giving up its embarked planes (the planes, not the groups or pilots - well maybe the pilots too) to a refueling air combat TF on station at sea.

# an option to display the big strategic map during execution phase instead of having the map jumping around.
# displaying all the messages in a real window instead of the mailslot along the lower corner
## same for all other message or overview windows, let them have their own placeable pop-up window like Dreamweaver and the like

I would like the air group divide limits increased or addressed. Right know I have come accross both Scenario 15 & 16 a total between both sides of 18 groups being able to divide. Why be able to divide the groups if such limited amount. It makes a big difference in the early going with limited base force sizes and CVE's.

Please allow more slots for airgroup divisions.

Thanks [&o]
