WHOA The damaged # seems a bit high doesn't it??? For it being the first wave its kinda high!!!! Even if it was the second wave, it seems rather high.

Hi Dan,

2 questions for you. How many air bases on the map at the begining of the main senarios and how long it take to complete a turn in this game ?

mario

Hi Mario

This is my first IJN game so I don't yet know the average time to do a turn...

But I have been playing as the USN for almost a month now vs Mogami and my first turn took 40 minutes while the rest after that 10-15 minutes...so I am very happy with that [:)] But you also have to keep in mind that my UV turns takes about 5 minutes or less...thats just how I play and I don't loose very often so I do not hurry at all....I know where my stuff is so I dont need to check the entire Pacific each turn...I am happily surprised that I can do turns in such a short time. I am TRULY enjoying the 1941-45 scenario.

How many bases? Many [:)]

Actually the Japanese lost 29 planes destroyed at PH and I'm worried that our losses are now running too low. The damaged number as stated elsewhere is overreporting as the same plane taking hits at multiple times gets reported as multiple planes hit. Also, each damage report can be a plane taking a few machinegun bullets, and I don't think the overall effect is causing more than the historical loss and damage to the Japanese. These planes get repaired quickly, in many cases overnight.

Enterprise sunk on turn 2....Banzai!!!

Due to new build coming out shortly Kid and I will restart in a few days...

Very impressive op tempo from Kido Butai there. [X(] In just four days, the 420 aircraft aboard flew 1790 offensive sorties, exclusive of fighters on CAP. This includes 1437 sorties from the 279 bombers (744 sorties by 144 B5N and 693 sorties by 135 D3A), as the bombers flew twice a day for three days running. Losses appear to have run to 44 aircraft of all types in combat; from the numbers of Vals and Kates participating in the attacks on 10 Dec, we can conclude that 1) the strikers (at least) suffered near-zero op losses, and 2) all or nearly all aircraft damaged in the three days prior had been fully repaired by Day 4. And 3), the Magical Ordie Gnomes must've stopped by the magazines to restock torpedos and SAP bombs. [&o]

I have to say that the allied TF commander who had only 3 Wildcats up on CAP over the Enterprise TF deserves to have gone down with the ship.... There's been a huge Japanese air attack on Pearl Harbor, obviously from carrier forces and he has only three a/c performing CAP the next day?? What a maroon... (okay Kid, we've all made the mistake of overlooking the little details on occaision, so this wasn't a real dig at you, just the way I'd feel if I had made the same blunder).

I just have a simple question... How did you know you sunk those ships ? In the AAR's I didn't notice anything saying they were sunk.. Did you simply look at the Intelligence (VPs) to find out ? If so, I don't like that.. You know you hit the ships hard, but from normal intelligence you would only know they were hurt bad and possibly crippled... If they sunk on the way home (due to flotation or fire damage) and appeared on the Ships Sunk list that gives you access to to much intelligence - knowing those CVs are sunk is ALOT different than knowing you hurt them.. A crippled CV can still put to see and still be mostly effective.. Is there anyway to keep ships off the Ships Sunk list if you do not KNOW they were sunk ?
But other than that, it looks like the IJN has a huge advantage and the ability to strike anywhere with little chance of the USN retaliating...

I agree regarding FOW limitations. Its certainly the way it is in UV.
It would be good to get false reports of ships sinking.

We compare notes....we are testing so we check with each other.

Thats easy, I've been playing Mogami for so long that I made my first turn as if I was playing him. He always retired his carrier force to get ready for Midway. I never even considered U2 would do anything else.
