Lowpe (Japan) vs Wargamr (Allies)

RE: Lowpe (Japan) vs Wargamr (Allies)
After the Ise finishes repairs tomorrow, the Yamato priority will be changed, and we will see how quickly the system damage can be eliminated. If I want to get fancy, I could check daily and bounce repairs back and forth from the shipyard to reduce overall repair time...given the big need for the Yamato I might just do that.
I need all my AR conversions...

RE: Lowpe (Japan) vs Wargamr (Allies)
I make it a practice to switch ships away from shipyard as soon as they have the same estimated repair time pierside compared to shipyard. E.g. on that screenshot you have a bunch of DDs with few points of sys damage occupying Yokohama yard space.ORIGINAL: Lowpe

Well, now, more explanation is needed I see.[;)]
Yoko has a fair bit of Naval support squads which adds to the pierside repair of system damage and Yamato has 0 repair points accumulated. So, putting her at the pier, and putting the rest into shipyard maximizes repairs for this day. When I get my AR conversions done, there will be tons of pierside repair points available, and the repair rate of big ships will greatly accelerate by switching back and forth between pierside and shipyard greatly increasing the ability to repair flood/engine damage.
It is a minigame, juggling repair modes.

Ceylon
A relatively quiet front, the scene of scattered bombardments, sweeps and air defense erupts into cataclysmic violence at the big port, where a British Cruiser force moves in and is met by the IJN light cruiser force operating in two ship hunter squadrons...
A mine hit alerts the Japanese hunters, and they pounce...outnumbered, out gunned, they look to launch the long lance and retreat....

I have been travelling, and had the immense joy of sitting next to Patrick Henry at a re-enactment of the 2nd Virginia Convention with Washington, Lee, Harrison, Jefferson and several other Virginia worthies....
Anyhow, perusing my AAR I neglected to mention there are about 4 British taskforces circling Ceylon. Two turns ago I spotted Hermes or at least some carrier presence. I have not spotted any invasion ships but surely they are coming?
