![]() ![]() I set all my ships to prioritizing building morale. Keeping your ships happy makes them a bit more productive. Overall, I continue to add carriers, cruisers, BB's and DD's to each as they're built, with a lower number of these going to the Aleutians vs. I try to get the repaired BB’s to the central attacking force by the time its ready to tackle Truk Lagoon and it’s extra large shore batteries. Southern attacking task force-2 CVs, 3 cruisers, 6 destroyers Initially these are set up as follows:ġ.Ĝentral attacking task force-2 CVs, 3 cruisers, 6 destroyersĢ. I like to have a southern attacking taskforce, a central attacking taskforce, and a smaller taskforce protecting the Aleutians. Organize Your Ships into a Few Focused Offensive Taskforces Also, don’t forget to upgrade the ships in Pearl Harbor at the start and set your BB’s to repairing. Watching a few streamers on Youtube like Carrier Junyo, it drives me nuts to watch him ignore the CV and other ships on the west coast of California at the start of the game. ![]() Plus, one of your taskforces is in great position to capture Makin Atoll.ĭon’t Forget to Use All of What’s Available at Start You get some nice war bonds at start and some extra ships. I'm interested to hear if folks agree/disagree or have other ideas: However if you play with Spectres Realism MOD, that adds some more planes to the UK side, a number of the ones you mention.So here's what I've learned thus far playing the American campaign. Yes the British lack many ships they should have, especially they have no CA whatsoever. Thanks for the thoughts, I will take a look through these and chat to the team about the ideas :) Ace Saburo Sakai praised their surprising maneuverability. Served in New Guinea and Henderson field under ANZAC forces. Lockheed Hudson - First Allied aircraft to attack a Japanese ship, Kota Bhura, Malaya. That, along with I have a sudden propensity towards British involvement in WW2 and I'm bored. Originally posted by AWtruo127:The British campaign the last time I played seems really dull with little variety of units, so I've decided to come up with ideas to add more for the British and make them more competitive. PBY Catalina - In British service since the hunt for the Bismarck. Vought Corsair - Only Illustrious, Formidable, and Victorious have enough hangar height to store them. Grumman Hellcat - Arrived on Indomitable & Implacable class. Grumman Avenger - Arrived w/ BPF in '44. Grumman Wildcat/Martlet - Equipped on Formidable during Indian Ocean raid. Supermarine Sea Otter - A slight/modest improvement over the Fairey Walrus, introduced in November '44 w/ the Royal Navy and Australian forces. Served with the BPF and Dutch forces in New Guinea. Fairey Firefly - Successor of the Fairey Fulmar, useful escort, reliable strike-fighter, ASW capable largely non-competitive by '45. Fastest climbing and responding allied carrier-borne aircraft. III is the most capable and notable variant, saw action in '44 w/ British Pacific Fleet. V arrived late '42, combat debut in February '43, Darwin. Vickers Wellington - Most Eastern deployment is Burma, no action in the Pacific proper. Britsol Beaufort - Torpedo bomber produced in Australia, Battle of the Bismarck Sea, some deliveries to Singapore, rest transferred to Australia. Bristol Beaufighter - Arrived mid '42 under Australian squadrons, participated in the Battle of the Bismarck Sea. Bristol Blenhiem - Light bomber stationed in Malaya, performed combat roles until '43. DD Battle Type - Newest British destroyer class, only HMS Barfleur saw action in the Pacific in June '45. DD U & (New)V Type - Nearly identical to S & T class, Malacca Strait. DD Savage - S class w/ 4.5" dual-purpose guns (did not serve in the Far East/Pacific). DD S & T Type - Battle of the Malacca Strait CL Adelaide - Australian cruiser, add Aussie cruisers from the Chatham sub-class. CL Town - Involvement in various periods of time. CA Norfolk - Indian Ocean Raid (Rip Dorsetshire). CA Kent - Some donated to the Aussies, some in British service. CVL Hermes - Indian Ocean Raid (over all usefulness is questionable). BB Queen Elizabeth class - Warspite was in Vancouver during December 7th, Indian Ocean Raid, QE herself joined in late '43. BC Renown - Arrived early '44 (different enough from Repulse). The British campaign the last time I played seems really dull with little variety of units, so I've decided to come up with ideas to add more for the British and make them more competitive. ![]()
