CHS questions

[BlackVoid]

I checked the docs that come with CHS, but did not find any answers. Can someone answer these questions?

1. Does CHS fix AA effectiveness? Land based AA is close to ineffective in the stock game. Is there a solution for this in CHS?
2. Subs - any change on them in CHS? They are too easy to find and kill in the game.
3. 4E bombers - I know their production is reduced CHS (at least for some), what about effectiveness? Is it reduced in CHS to realistic levels?

I am about to start a new PBEM, Andrew's map is a given, but cannot decide yet between CHS and Nik's mod.

Thank you

I will try to answer your questions

No changes (yet). There are some OOB changes coming, but I am not sure whether there will be any changes to effectiveness. It will probably be increased, though not as much as Nik has done.

2. Subs - any change on them in CHS? They are too easy to find and kill in the game.

Subs have armour in CHS, which makes them more able to withstand attack. In the next CHS release many subs will also get air search radar.

3. 4E bombers - I know their production is reduced CHS (at least for some), what about effectiveness? Is it reduced in CHS to realistic levels?

There is no change to bomber effectiveness. This MAY change in the next version, along the lines proposed by DFalcon, which would be a fairly small reduction in effectiveness. Also, there will be an attempt to reduce the bloodiness of air-to-air combat.

The next CHS update is still a while away, however...

Thank you very much Andrew!
This means that for me Nik's mod is the best. With YOUR map of course [8D]

will Nik's mod work with AB extended map? As far as I understood there might be a problem with the base in Aden as all the fresh troops will still show up in India right?

There is no conversion of Nik's mod for my extended map, only the standard map. Currently, the only scenario that is designed to use the extended map is CHS. Indeed the extended map was created for CHS. So my conversion of Nik's mod should be played on my standard map (you COULD play it using the extended map, but there would be no bases in the Middle East, Panama or the Society Islands).
