I was looking at the deck armor of the Indefatigable CV class ..The wooden deck armor of the Essex class CVs is 25. I humbly suggest we reduce the Sho class CV deck armor from 65 to 25 going forward starting w/ RA6.0

ideas for Japan :

The French comming ok.... than we must take a handfull german submarines for Japan. ( Monsun U Boote )

The 100/65mm shell have a weight of 13 kg the 12,7 cm DP have shellweight of 20 and 24 kg i think all ships with the new 100/65 gun can carry more Ammo for Battle i think 15 % more shells.

Furutaka and Aoba class path to a heavy AA Cruiser and the 20 cm guns go into Coastal Defence units.

Make more Coastal Defence mobile in Japan,China,Vietnam...not R and static...this is anyway no Match for the Allied Hordes of Battelships.

thanks for watching

Here's a thought John. This might be for the Perfect War mod. The idea of adding AC to the Allied side. What about bringing in obsolete AC from the European side. Start with say P40Ks then work up the latter as some of the planes become outdated. Maybe a factory or something like that. This will give the Allies extra planes for CAP and escort missions but nothing to overpowering. Just a thought. Glad you guys are safe from the weather.

Michael forwarded me the discussion going on about Allied Command HQ radius changing during the war. Check out that thread. Anyone got ideas about that?

Home from a short trip.

YES: They do rock. In the last version of RA the Japanese got 8 of them. With 6.0 that number is reduced to five with the remaining 3 being converted to CVLs.

Idea:

A higher Buildrate for Mines or a late Warmine with improved design and more TNT for Japan ! The Allied Mines outmatched the IJN Mines.
IJN build even the Mines over years ago..... a upgrade for better Defence ?

I must be honest about this; with all due respect and apologies to Daryl. This is the sort of thing that works really cool in a short-time scenario where these sorts of things can play a role. In a GC scenario, I'm not sure what purpose it serves. Just because Kimmel was in shock doesn't mean that 14th Naval District couldn't continue to play its operational role in the HIs. That, in fact, is what a staff is all about.

Ok, after Dec 7, Kimmel knew he was gonna get whacked, but he still made some good decisions in the meantime. Then Ernie Pye came in and cancelled them 'cause he saw what happened to Kimmel, and he just wasn't comfy about stiking his own winkie into the fan. A surprise/defeat/disaster and your superior getting whacked for it does not do wonders for a subordinate's sense of initiative and risk, especially if that subordinate is not particularly knowledgeable at utilizing the last remaining combat assets of PacFlt.

Butt that don't mean the staff was tweaked. Yes, the staff sings Hosannahs to the Admiral, and the staff glorifies the Admiral, but if they don't do their job in the midst of glorification, they are toast. Kimmel's and Tommy Hart's staff were pretty good. Babes people typically use the HQ evolution for small map things where a Japanese BF morphs into a command HQ for specific situations. GC stuff is a bit of a stretch for us. Hope you and Daryl understand.
