Re: Kamikaze
In addition to the concern regarding the predicted damage to the cruiser, the predicted damage to the kamikaze is a bit confusing to me. I admit that I haven't used kamikazes when playing as Japan, but when playing against the computer as the Allies, all kamikaze attacks resulted in the unit being c...

Re: Missing Yorktown - Coral Sea US Scenario
I have only been playing the campaigns so I don't know if there was a change in the resource points from earlier versions, but I also have version 1.9.4e loaded and when I just checked a minute ago, my starting resource points are the same as yours--200. That's a pretty challenging starting point fo...

Re: OOB Pacific: Weak AA, Weak subs?
Two other thoughts about subs, and please forgive me if someone else has brought them up previously. First, what about a deck gun for classes of subs that carried them historically? Against merchant ships/transports, it could allow the sub to do something useful while the tubes are being reloaded; d...

Re: OOB Pacific: Weak AA, Weak subs?
Wow, I had no idea about the "silent running" dynamic--that is a great addition! And it also completely explains some of my frustrations in hunting enemy subs. Regarding the damage that submarines inflict during combat, it makes sense to me that if their intended target has moved during th...

Re: Cargo Aircraft, one important thing missing from the gam
Like you, I've noticed that the number of units (squadrons) that can be assigned to different aircraft carriers in the game hasn't always been consistent with history. The way that OOB: Pacific is currently designed, however, it might be difficult to change that, but you bring up an interesting idea...

Re: New unit sneak peek
Regarding the new "Construction Group" unit, has there been any thought about giving it the ability to increase the number of supply points on a hex? In particular, if the supply points on a hex have been reduced by strategic bombing effects, then maybe the Construction Group unit could be...

Re: Carrier upgrade cost
Even when considering upgrading from something like an Essex '42 to an Essex '44, it's difficult to say whether the price is worth it because it's somewhat based on your game style. If you are surrounding your carriers with cruisers, battleships, and aircraft to make sure that the torpedo bombers an...

Bug Report: P-61 Unit Fires on B-29
I only briefly scanned this forum to check for similar issues so please forgive me if this problem has already been reported. While playing Operation Downfall this evening, I had a B-29 directly over the Imperial Palace and a P-61 unit in an adjacent hex. When I placed the cursor over the B-29, I go...
