Repairs and upgrades for IJN player in Guadalcanal scenario (DaBabes)

Post by kkoovvoo »

Hi guys,

i am playing PBEM and I would like to be sure in this issues.

Japan has no repair shipyard in this scenario.

I read about my issues in manual and forums, but could you assure me whether are my assumptions correct?

A/
If IJN ship is due to upgrade and the upgrade requires Repair shipyard, i dont have any possibility to upgrade this ship (except sending this ship to Osaka, which takes ages).

B/
If IJN capital ship takes major damage:
- major damage 5 or lower can be repaired in Rabaul/Truk
- major flooding damage can be repaired by ARD in Truk,
- major engine damage above 5 cant be repaired (except sending this ship to Osaka).


thx

It's a short scenario. Short time, short map. There's no repair yards for Japan, because there weren't in the scenario context. A ship gets whacked hard enough to require a shipyard, send it away and don't expect to see it again. It will take longer to fix than the scen time limit, or something like that.

I wasn't complaining, I was just looking for confirmation.

- major flooding damage can be repaired by ARD in Truk,

If it is like the one in the GC then it is pretty small and can only fix DD and the like.

Are you sure this is true?

I didnt found any restriction for ARD to repair capital ships neither in manual nor in repair guide:
ORIGINAL: Ship Repair 101 Guide

Table F: Normal integrity damage of combat vessels repairable by repair ships

AD – DD/DE/APD/DMS/DM/AVD/E/TB/KV/PF/PB/PC/SC/AM/ML
AG – DE/APD/DMS/DM/AVD/E/TB/KV/PF/PB/PC/SC/AM/ML/HDML/MGB/YP/YMS/AMc
AGP – PT/MTB/MGB/PB/PC/SC/AM/ML/HDML/YP/YMS/AMc
AR – all ship types
ARD – flotation damage only to all ship types but only 1 ship at a time is repaired
AS – SS/SST/SSX

Exemplar F: A mineweeper (AM) with 39 “normal” engine POD will receive IRP from an AD, AG, AGP or AR. A submarine with the exact same damage will receive IRP only from an AR or AS.


Table G: Major integrity damage of combat vessels repairable by repair ships

AD – PB/PC/SC/AM/ML/HDML/MGB/YP/YMS/AMc
AG – PB/PC/SC/AM/ML/HDML/MGB/YP/YMS/AMc
AGP – PB/PC/SC/AM/ML/HDML/MGB/YP/YMS/AMc
AR – PB/PC/SC/AM/ML/HDML/MGB/YP/YMS/AMc
AR – all ship types sized DE and above provided the aggregated major IR damage does not exceed 5 POD
ARD – flotation damage only to all ship types but only 1 ship at a time is repaired

It depends size of the ARD. Truk has very small ARD (size 3?), so it can only repair ships under 3000 tons. 1 point = 1000 tons.

I see it now. ARD has lift capacity 3.000. So DD will be repaired, nothing bigger.

Thx guys.
