imho it would be nice if the goals will be: for US: to reach the objective in a certain ammount of time, but also keeping the losses under a certain procent for japs: to defend the objective for a certain ammount of time, regardless the losses else we'll have too much dweeb action on the red side, which is bad for a scenario PS: nice idea vibora
So we have now: Infinite # of Red Planes... Limited # of Gold Planes... Kamikase action allowed... Fleets Driven... Time limit... I've got one: At South Pacific terrain, we have 8 fleets: 4 CV fleets and 4 submarines... What you think if, in order to get close to real think, we split this ordnance in: Reds: 3 Cvs Fleets (under Halsey) 1 Submarine (under Kinkaid) golds: 1Cv Fleet (Ozawa) 3 Submarines (Shima, Kurita, Nishimura) Ill ask franz- to code a special Hmack device just to use at Subs (that in SthPac is a "CV" field) and uses torpedoes.... I mean: At "Submarine Fields" you type some sort of dot command and you get a jeep at submarine deck filled with 12 torpedoes (KD-7 Imperial Navy Submarine type; close to Gato USN Submarine Class - 10 torps) ready to send to CV hulls. So, a Captain can drive the sub and fire torps, or if he's lucky, have one chap to fire torps... more ideas?
Going further: TabaHost Philippines Orbat: Red Orbat USN planes: FM2 F4U1D F6F-3 SBD TBF Li2 CV1 - Hornet 37 F6F 36 SBD 18 TBF 4 Li2 CV2 - Monterrey 24 F6F 9 TBF 4 Li2 CV3 - Intrepid 73 F4U 15 SBD 15 TBF 4 Li2 Gold Orbat IJN planes: A6m5a A6m5b N1K2 B5n D3a2 IJA planes: Ki61-1c Ki-84-Ia Ki-43 Ki-44 G4M2 L2D CV1 - Zuikaku 27 A6M5b 27 D3A2 18 B5N Grass Field (each) 12 Ki61-1c 12 Ki-84-Ia 36 Ki-43 12 Ki-44 Big Field 12 Ki61-1c 12 Ki-84-Ia 36 Ki-43 12 Ki-44 24 G4M2 8 L2D Small Field IJA 12 Ki61-1c 12 Ki-84-Ia 36 Ki-43 12 Ki-44 IJN 12 A6m5a 12 N1K2 24 B5n 24 D3a2. so, by now: Limited # of Red Planes... Limited # of Gold Planes... Kamikase action allowed... Fleets Driven... Time limit... Wind... TH scenario icons range... Torp ready-to-fire submarines... scenario first sketch:
