CDROM help II: Attempting to start the turn ….

hi, since some days, I can’t see the topics where I posted in anymore whenever I open the topic list in a subforum (mostly the play by forum section forums). The only way to get in the topics of my games, is by pasting the exact link into my webbrowser, but otherwise I just can’t see them in the topic list. Anyone have an idea on what to do here? I have looked into my profile settings but can’t seem to find a solution, or I am looking over it.

@admin: if this topic doesn’t belong here, my apologies, please move it to the correct section.

I think i understand now.  Can’t wait to try it out.  Hopefully you mind if I have a few questions after my first couple of games.  Thanks for the info Frimmel.

@LT04:

I love this topic but I have a quick question…

Why doesn’t the math work both ways?  What I mean by that is if you steepen the curve with your attack hits to get the “average” hits instead of the “expected” hits why doesn’t the same rule apply when calculating the enemy defense hits?

That would make your estimate a lot more conservative.

I does do the same with defense hits. It is just that in the scenario he mentioned there was only 1 unit so the odds are simple - 33%. If there were more units in defense you would have to do the same thing. However, generally there are more attacking units than defending units, because the attacker would not do a battle that he would lose. So, this makes the number of hits the defender gets roughly the average since the attacker almost always has => the defender units.

Ive managed to open the files so I think ive figured this out. I just need to download BigPieces.bmp so the units wont be microscopic.

Thanks for the Clarification switch, I think you might have nailed it… At any rate John Remember that you must roll a “number” or lower in order to get a hit.

Thanx for the simplication GG, when i was posting that i read it over and thought hopefully some one will understand that mess.

Well yes it is, but Alaska has 2 sea zones. The one that is 2 spaces (1 turn) from Japan by boat is NOT the sea zone the is also next to W Can. No worries of that.

If you want the carrier in the battle, move it now. If not, don’t move it now. If you want the carrier to end it’s non-combat movement in that space, your fighters will have to clear it of enemy units first…
