Can you build the Super Yamato battleships? If so build those.

How about keep everything in the game exactly the same but the Japanese player gets two super powerful typhoon magical power summons that they can use against an area of ocean and sink anything in it. Someone make the mod.

Can someone link some cool AARs for this game both from the Allied and Japanese side? I love Grey but I'm curious to see what an expert at this game can manage.

Pervis posted:This game is so radically different PBEM compared to vs AI that it's worth looking at them if you enjoy this thread. I haven't kept up with the current threads but I recognize a bunch of the players in them, and I'd suggest just reading the first turn or two of each thread on the side you care about and see if you like the style of the writing. Some tend to write fairly little and just highlight some things and don't talk much about plans, while others have a lot more information and insight in to what's going on. Is this on the Matrix Games forums?

So as the Allies can the human player literally be hands off for an entire two years and then in late 1944 take their Essex doomstack and crush everything in their path?

So how far behind in Grey right now? Shouldn't he be deep in the Dutch East Indies by now?

So will the Allied AI take proper advantage of it's soon arriving overwhelming carrier power or will it simply sortie out each new carrier one by one to be sunk as soon as it arrive? Meaning will Grey ever see a proper Task Force 38 with 15+ Carriers? For all the the Kido Butai gets that poo poo was bushleague compared to the US Fast Carrier Task Force.

HisMajestyBOB posted:The Allies get a penalty to CAG coordination if they have too many CVs in a task force ("too many" meaning >~100 aircraft in 1942, >~150 in 1943, or >~200 in '44). Task Force 38 could put up over 1,000 planes into the air so that's some bullshit. Unless you count subdivisions in which it had 3 but that still is way over 200 planes each. To give some idea to how loving powerful this force was, during the Okinawa campaign, it included: 17 Carriers 8 Fast Battleships 19 Cruisers 59 Destroyers All sailing together as one strike force. And that was just the Fast Carrier Task Force of the 5th fleet. The 7th fleet was far larger and included like 200 destroyers, 40 Cruisers, 30 escort carriers, and a dozen Super Dreadnaught Battleships, including 6 that were 'sunk' at Pearl Harbor. The Kido Butai at its absolute height had: 6 Carriers (keep in mind that Japanese carriers carried only about 2/3 the complement of planes that US carriers did) 2-3 Fast Battleships 10ish Cruisers 25ish Destroyers They could have had more battleships but the Yamatos were kept preciously guarded at Truk for 2 years and didn't sortie out at all. And the Ise Class Battleships became some useless bastard battleship/carrier hybrid. The Japanese were fuuuuuuuuuucked. Shimrra Jamaane fucked around with this message at 22:29 on Feb 17, 2015 |

Not My Leg posted:Just because the US could historically put up 1,000 planes at once doesn't mean it didn't suffer some efficiency losses from acting in a task force that large. One thousand planes can still be very effective without being exactly five times as effective as 200 planes. Oh I thought that was a max amount thing. Yeah that makes sense then.

Prime Minister Grey Hunter was stabbed to death in his bed last night and replaced by a more 'enthusiastic' staff officer who better embodies the Samurai spirit. RIP
