Pearl Harbor - Frozen Unit Evasion Modifier

Post by pthorn »

I have been playing as Japan and have attempted to attack Pearl Harbor. Unfortunately, I take losses as if I am not recieving an evasion modifier for the opposing units being forzen. Under these conditions the attack seems futile. What's going on?

Also, is a plausible strategy to invade Pearl in order to destory those fleets, if it cannot be done with an attack on the port?

Thanks!

Please post the exact numbers you are seeing as well as which version you are using. You can also mail me a save where you feel you didnt get the correct evasion modifier and I can take a look at it. My email remains janbs@stofanet.dk

Invading and taking PH wont destroy the fleet there. It was a deliberate design decision to not make that scuttle the fleet as it would be too easy.

I am using the original out of the box version of the game with no patch. Perhaps that's the problem. The values for evasion x durability are as if there is no modifier to evasion.--15 for my carrier based air and 12 for the US ships.

If you are using the standard US version, then you should update to 1.040 as I'm pretty sure the evasion problem was a bug that was fixed in one of the early patches. The international version should not have this problem out of the box as it should be the same as the 1.040 version.
