Escorts in Burma are a different story. Look at our game! Even if I set them on escort they don´t escort the bombers. Crazy game....

Had this in other games also, getting escorts flying in Burma is a problem. But everywhere else I have 80 escorts escorting a couple of bombers to a target where no enemy fighters are. In Burma the bombers fly unescorted - even when 100 fighters are set to escort - to a target just to get slaughtered...

Did I say crazy game?[8|]

[Przemcio231]

Ok im sitting in a University Library and im bored so i will write something about the Condition of the Empire[:D]


Navy

I think the Combined fleet is in great shape i lost only a coupple of DD's and few sub's. For the Moment the Fleet is dispresed as few BB's sit in Truk along with CA and DD escorts, CV's are dispresed some in Japan and the rest in China training their Air Groups. Yesterday Katsuragi and a last CVL joined the fleet[;)] I plan to Train Up my Fighter Squadrons to 75-85Exp while the Strike planes will maintain 70-75exp level. Some CA's and DD's are refiting in Tokyo and Mizaru as well as Hiei and Mushai (both hit 1 mine near Ndini) and the Musahi got 47Sys Dmg from hiting one dumb mine[:@] no she is at 25sys. I know that the next battle will probably end in a massacre but im decided to throw everything when Zeta will commence some Invasion the Fleet will be probably stationing on Saipan or Truk i did not make my mind yet as i fear that B-29's can reach Truk from Luganvile.

Air Force

The Navy Air arm is strong and all units have exp > 70 but this can soon change as my pilots tend to die quickly. i got over 800 A6m3a's in the pool as well as over 500 Jack's the only problem is a small nr of G4M2's as my squadrons replace old models of the plane but soon Frances will come on line so i will have 2 good torpedo planes to convert the old Betty to. And in 3 months Gorge will enter production... dose any one know is it a decent plane worth ivesting my resources into??

The Army Air Force Fighter Force is also in good shape as all front line units are around 70 exp, and i got 600 Tojo's and 500'Tony's in the pool. I will recive some more fighter sentais soon so i will send them to China ASAP , i got few Sentais of Exp Night fighters i will use them ageainst Allied Heavy bombers only.
The Bomber force lost around 60-70 planes recently but i will train them up soon to[;)]

Army

Well my pools and reserves are large so no problem here.

Industry

Well i think i got enough Oil and Resources to run my Home Islands industry for 3 months without any shipments[;)] Since Zeta did not send subs to interdict my convoys the flow is constant and uninterupted[;)] My Plane Production is sufficient when my last factory will convert i will be getting 380 Zake's a month so i should quickly replace the older models[:'(] Im slowly building up a HI reserve now over 400k of points acumulated and Rising. As for ship building im not monitoring the civil shipyards but as for my naval program 3 last Unryu's are accelerated as well as 2 last CL's the Yahagi and Sakawa[;)] i plan to accelerate some of the DD's but it seams that im unagle to speed some of them up[:-]

Sorry for such interuption in the AAR but Real Life Issues are interupting my normal game sequence[:@] any ways nothing interesting happened just the usual air training in China[:D] But i noticed something strange just south of Guadalcanl... the TF appeared out of nowhere and enemy units are building an air strip on a small island... i think its time to intervene... Strong Surface TF's departed Truk to pay a visit to the Allies, i also send a small MSW TF from Lunga to check for mines...
