Yorktown was torpedoed and sunk by a submarine in the aftermath of Midway yet its loss is still considered part of the battle. My issue is that after a resounding victory I get the message that an enemy sub has torpedoed my biggest battleship. S15:56:19 GMT -6 hardlec said:The AI does not cross my T. Maybe it will be a Gallipoli disaster maybe not. I should be allowed to choose enemy bases to attack. I should get a say in the invading of enemy territory. In this capacity I should be able to choose how vigorously I prosecute the war. My job is in an office issuing orders to subordinates. My original point: I am not a ship's captain or even a Fleet admiral. When appended to the end of a battle it costs much more. Subs are lost, but to append the loss of a sub onto a battle to turn a draw into a loss is the AI cheating. The consequence should NOT be: SS-555 is overdue and presumed lost. No points is amuch better result than losing both ships in a battle I can't win. I find that I have 2 light cruisers and the convoy is guarded by A pre-dreadnought and two old CAs. S9:49:32 GMT -6 hardlec said:I do believe there should be some choices the First Sea Lord should make: People do complain about things like "the computer's ships that carry 90 rounds get to fire 110 rounds, or Capt. I have noticed that no-one complains: The AI crossed my T and I lost the battle. There are choices I should make that are being made for me, and this creates the illusion of the AI cheating. Whether or not to attack a base and which base. I should also get the choice to attack my enemy's bases in war. While at peace, every three months, game time, my peerless leader should ask me if we can/should try to take over a neutral possession or a valuable colony. "Do you wish to plan a pre-emptive strike against Lower Slobovia?" If I do make the plan, then I get to make the first move in the upcoming war. al.Įxplicitly: Tension with Lower Slobovia has hit the Orange. If I fight a good fight and Lord-Herr-DaDa's regime collapses, maybe they make me the new PM ed. If I lose a war which I have Prosecuted like a Nazi I should get an all expenses paid trip to Nuremberg. I think this is a choice the human player should get. How vigorously am I going to prosecute this war? From 10: I'm going to use underhanded tricks and put bengay on my enemy's condoms to 5: I'm going to fight hard but by the rules of war to 0: I'm going to avoid losses at all costs (sic)(Pun intended). I do believe there should be some choices the First Sea Lord should make: Sometimes the AI chooses the winner before the battle even begins. The French have destroyed your capital ships by acts of sabotage.īut please stop sending me into battles where I've lost before the initial dialogue comes up, and then pretend it's fair. I checked the logs on the after action report on the last iteration. Within the first few minutes of a battle I could not avoid with an enemy I tried to avoid fighting in the first place, The core of my navy is an artificial reef. I do a full diagnostic to make sure the power failures haven't damaged anything. It takes my a while to re-boot everything. Within 1/2 hour, game time, all three of my BBs are sleeping with the fishes. This time I immediately turn tail and run for port. Then the power fails and lose my game.Īfter the storm I reload the game and continue. Within the first few minutes of the war, my precious BBs are all like Lucio Brazi. There are no ships in range to launch a torpedo. This is the deep ocean, no mines here but.īB two has a flash-fire and blows up after being hit by a 6 inch gun from a CL.īB three is hit by a torpedo. I planned to immediately rebuild these ships because they are behind technologically. I don't need cruisers either, but you're the Czar.Įach time I have to change the Czar's diapers I have to halt construction on my dreadnoughts. The Czar wants me to build 15 submarines (I already have more submarines than anyone else in the world, but you're the Czar) It has taken years to build these ships, because: My three modern capital ships are all there. I find myself in a battle in the dialog immediately following the declaration of war. But I'm at war so I prepare to do my duty. They have better technology and twice my budget. I have sacrificed budget and prestige to keep tensions with France low. The AI has France pick a fight with me, Russia.
