Title: Next Week, Okinawa
Post by: Soulyss on May 20, 2004, 07:55:50 PM
As I've stated previously next week in the CT we will running Okinawa.  


It will be running "as is" ie, how it has appeared in the past.

==============================================
Fleat hardness will by 50% of MA standard, 4k for a Cv and 750 pounds for any other ship.

All bases have SB's they will be set to 5k, as apposed to 4k wich is their default seting.

The Ack gun hardenss will be increased to 50KG.

Ack lethality will be at .7, like it is normaly in the CT.

Dot dar will be at 20 miles for enemy and unlimited for friendly.

500 foot height for dar.

The plane set:

At start up all Allied airpower will be sea based, if the Allies take a base US Army Air assest's will be available their as well as GV's.


Plane set:

Their are two types of Allied CV task forces, one with 4 CV's and one with one CV. The 4 CV groups have two CA in them along with their CV's and the Single CV groupe is just like a MA fleat. Their are also 4 CA TF's like we had on the slot map. For this set up will will be using, 2 single CV group's, one Four CV groupe and one 4 CA groupe. The Japanese will have one Single CA groupe.

USN:

From the Four CV groupe(C1):

Hellcat
Wildcat FM2
TBM
SBD
LVT's

From the Single CV groupe (C3):

F4U-1D
TBM
SBD
LVT's

Royal Navy:

From the single CV groupe(C4):

F4U-1A (Skined as a Royal Navy Coursare)
TBM
SBD
LVT's

US Army:

P47D-30
A20
C47
The M's
Panzer IV
PT's

Japan:

All of them.
C47
The M's
Panzer IV
PT's
==============================================

I know some people are gonna whine about the chog, but I think I made my arguments against it back when I was a player and if anyone really cares that much you're welcome to go look them up. :)  As such there will be no F4U-1C.

Nice setup Soulyss. Should have the flight chair finished by mid week next week so the CO of VF-17 will finally get some more flight time in any game.

Here we go again :)  both the P38 and the Chog should be in the set up.  I hope this doesn't start another eye gouge match.

Why would the Chog be there Storch? ;) Maybe I shouldn't add fuel to the fire but what the heck.

Assuming is the easy part. Was it not there?

P38's were mainly relegated to operations over Formosa, Borneo, Tarakan Island and French Indochina during the Okinawa time frame.
Here are a couple of useful sites for USAAF operations during World War II.

There would be no harm in a slightly modified Okinawa that had the P-38 included. I have no strong opinion on it either way, setup looks fine to me.

P-38 v. Nik is a pretty good fight, as that one setup proved.  Gives the guys who don't fly from carriers an option.

Looks like a winner. I'm actually glad to get rid of this last map. This past week had to be my all time worst LW week in the CT ever. Kinda looking forward to flying something manuverable and dodging those fast incoming BLUE streaks.:aok

Concho took all his stuff when he went on "temporary" leave. I do have a one peice that Hangman left however. We need to recall Erg from stateside and get RT out f the brig. Maybe pull CIU off desk duty while we are at it.
