Missing ship kills

Post by Cajun Tifoso »

So, on 1/9/42, a USN TF pounded the Zuiho and Hiryu a little to the south of the Russell Islands. I saw the combat reports and the OP reports supporting the sinking of the Zuiho on the 9th and the Hiryu went down on the 10th (from memory). I have a saved game on 1/9/42 that shows that the Zuiho went down on the "Ships sunk" report...

However, when I pull up the "Ships sunk" report from 1/11/42 (my next saved game), it shows that the Zuikaku sunk on the 9th and neither the Zuiho and Hiryu are mentioned.

What's up? While I like a certain amount of "Fog of War" in the game, but this is downright odd.

Any thoughts?

This kind of thing happened all the time in WitP. I rand into a AI Jap transport 15 ship TF and watched the total encounter and all 15 were sunk but only 10 showed up on the report. Not a bug I think. I do not have AE but it could be fog of war or other rules. Now if you see the ship back in the game after a sinking report that can be FOW
also..so ya never quite know.
