this is a hawaii terrain for a future pearl harbor scenario and the combat theatre

it is completely to scale with all airfields on oahu as they were on dec 7th and all ships where they were on dec 7th as well

Pearl Harbor scenario?  That's going to be a pretty hard one to pull off, isn't it?  Imagining: 100+ Japanese aircraft/bombers vs. 20 Allied aircraft.  :confused:   The scenario would be a ship gunner's dream, though.

im also making it compatible with the combat theatre. the setup will be like okinaway but in reverse. it will feature the ijn having 6 carrier fleets which will ussually be within flying distance of the hawaiian bases.
the us will have all land bases in hawaii and also have 1 or 2 carrier fleets.


as to the pearl harbor scenario its a CAP event so its likely they will go for a more balanced fight that an exact recreation of the order of battle but im only speculating.

The CT is a great place to dogfight in a Dauntless.  Its a lot of fun if you've never tried it.

Will any of the ships be MOVABLE ( such as the BB Nevada ) or are they static ?

Any US CV Fleets outside of Pearl ?

Too bad no MINI SUB ! wonder if you can redo the Destroyer to look like the top part of a mini sub ?

Thanks,

Pearl Harbor is a good scenario.

How its normaly done is having 2 teams,  Team A and Team B.  

Frame 1 - Team A is Japan, and Team B is the USA

All the scoring is done based on the outcome.

Frame 2 - The old switcheroo,  Team B is Japan and Team A USA

Run the thing again and score it.    Then compair the 2 scores and the Team with best total wins.   Its fun because you can play both sides.

Keep up the good work Fester

As long as they put the Peggy's in for the CT setup, it'll be fine.
