Never Thought I'd Start Another One - tc464 (A) vs. Mike (J)

Yes, the "trop" stands for tropical.

Just to let you know for your planning purposes, on the Discord channel it was mentioned that the Japanese Invasion Bonus lasts through April.

That recon unit that was lost will be rebuilt when the division reforms. A suggestion for combat though, take your beaten up units and smaller combat units and put them into Reserve mode. On defense if they are needed in the combat to prevent the enemy's victory, they will participate but in move mode. If the enemy attack wins without their participation, they apparently retreat without loosing their disabled squads and devices.

That's great info for both of those. It's really nice to hear that the invasion bonus lasts a month longer than before. The other part is also good to know. Always wondered what to do with those small units.

You are most welcome!

Also, remember that paratroopers don't need preparation for the target when they air drop. That is important when facing a unit with lots of CD and DP guns. If they are supported by BBs and CAs doing shore bombardments, then it makes it easier. They will make a shock attack.

As far as naval invasions, I have seen Japanese ships sunk by 40 mm Bofors . . .
