Re: Bombardment attacks

Does FP Recon matter for Amphibious Invasions? I have never seen a Recon msg for invasions, even though I have day Recon on the Island as a recon target and have no evidence it improves the assault. Edit 10/14/24 For Shore Bomb. BBFanboy i s correct. I just had a few in game attacks to check. The Re...

Re: Spanking Lowpe (NJP72 vs Lowpe (A))

Sometimes it happens when a unit gets wiped out. In real terms I guess they were all washed out to Sea for the sharks to count. Thanks for the detailed AAR, really great perspective and insight to a brilliant American/ Aus. Blitz cutting the Empire in half in record time. You are soon going to run i...

Re: House rule 4Es

The trouble with HR's is that at Midway the 4 EB caused the carriers to react to their attack delaying the CAP
rotation. It WAS a big deal in ONE instance. But then theirs always the B @%C and D.

Re: House rule 4Es

4 EB You have it right the 8 bombs and their size really hurt when they hit. But in actual use they where not accurate. The Norden bombsight myth. Nimitz didn;t tell the truth about the B-17s at Midway to fool the Japanese! Brilliant! How many ships were hit and how many were sunk in the entire war?...

Re: House rule 4Es

B 25 G & H models get the "Bombing and Strafing at Low Naval Attack" message, when set for Nav 5k ft. Only planes I think do this. I think its related to their armament and all those forward firing weapons. They are some of the most awesome (and feared) planes, range 11. I had to trade...

Re: Rising Sun, Falling Skies: BTSL Bigred vs John 3rd

What Board Game is that? Nice action around Sinabang. Shows how tough this mod is. Minefields in these coastal waters really disrupt IJN movement and can make him reconsider future bombardments. "3rd ADU Gun Regiment at Laysan" These Coastal Gun Regiments are very dangerous and can cause a...

Re: Rising Sun, Falling Skies: BTSL Bigred vs John 3rd

Atoll size plays a big part in your invasion. 2 Divs for Tarawa is okay but even one div for a 6k Atoll is too much. I still need some guidance on when the overstacking hurts your AV. I have seen that stacking over 120% of hex size is about the max. Still looking to confirm. Armour Btn.s seem to be ...

Re: Troop/Stacking Limits

Stacking Malus Overstacking a hex causes disorganization and fatigue to increase. I just don't know how much is ideal to over stack a hex in an attack? Assaulting a 6k Troop Atoll is keeping the assault force under 9k ideal? How about the 10k and 15k atolls, how much over the stacking is ideal? City...

Re: Rising Sun, Falling Skies: BTSL Bigred vs John 3rd

1000 Ops Points is 24 Hrs, AM & PM phases. With 2 day turns you would have gotten some movement on the 2nd day. If your CVs had more than half a tank they could have refueled in as little as around 400 Ops Points, leaving the PM phase to move. The losses sustained chart above shows how intense t...

Re: Rising Sun, Falling Skies: BTSL Bigred vs John 3rd

Mulligan! AO Replenishment is always "Full Refuel" by default. If your plan had succeeded Your CVs would have lost 1000 OPs points to refueling and the DDs may not have received any fuel the first day. I think 1 1/4 days (or more) would have been necessary to refuel either task force. I th...

Re: RADM Yamaguchi's Diary (Pls no affins or cheesesteak)

Thanks for the AAR, really like how you hi-lite key attacks, and your thoughts. You are in a great position with a really large perimeter. So far your raiding style has enabled this. I always learn something new from every AAR and your use of the B6N1 Jill was great: dump the DB's and go after ports...
