Yes, you read it correctly.
The current setup will continue in play until either early Saturday morning, or midnight if I have the energy to redo the arena when I get in from my job assignment.

Terrain: Mindanao

Setup: Invasion of the Phillipine Islands

Planesets:

USN/USMC:
F4U-1D
F6F-5
TBM
SBD
C-47

IJN/IJAAF:

A6M5b
Ki-61
N1K2-J (substitute for Ki84 and J2M3)
Ki-67
D3A1
B5N2
C-47

GV's will be, for both sides:

M3
M16
M8
PNZR

USN will have LVT's enabled from the fleets to represent the amphibious landings.
Japanese navy will have ONE CV fleet, all others will be US.
Radar settings, icon ranges, hangar hardness, etc....... will be CT normals.

This setup begins with the US already in possession of a few bases, but the majority of the bases will be in Japanese hands. The mobility of the carrier fleets can be utilized to offset the larger number of bases in Japanese hands.

HQ hardness will not change, but downtime will be minimized to the max.
Due to player feedback, I will get with the other CT staff and figure out how to keep darkness/nighttime to a minimum.

As I have stated before, this is the start of the setup. I have before, and will continue to make changes as needed during the week.
I leave for a two day assignment at 4AM Thursday morning, so PLEASE, be civil, and let's don't have a flamefest before the setup even starts? I will return late Friday night and either get this setup rolling then, or as soon as I get up Saturday morning I will log in and load it and open the arena.
My job will take me away Sunday, Monday, and Tuesday, and Sabre has graciously offered to stand in and monitor the arena during my absence. ~~sir, and many thanks!~~

Mindanao may be high maintenance for the CM.

What's the hardness of the Carriers and Cruisers?

If it's low enough for a Ki-67 to sink them, then someone may need to jump the TGs on a regular basis (in Mindanao.)

Looks good to me,but you might as well put all the Japanese planes in there.

eddiek

Arlo · « **Reply #8 on:** October 30, 2003, 12:31:54 PM »

Even then you (and the other staff) may want to rest more and leave it up until the 20th or so.

I agree ... at least the A6M5 ..... Key's downright deadly in `em versus all Navy planes.

at least the A6M5

Its there. Add the A6M2 so Ill know which one is Key:D

Arlo · « **Reply #12 on:** October 30, 2003, 06:14:59 PM »

Geez ... first one on the list!

Yeah ... add Key's ride.
