Jason...adding OFB arty as reinfs - Mr. Guberman - 12-06-2007 Jason, How difficult would it be to add offboard arty as reinforcements? Specifically...at Ambon, the Japanese 15th DesDiv start off the east of the island...and the battle moves out of range. Historically, a hodgepodge force of minesweepers and auxilliaries moved up into Ambon bay and were used as light arty... Maybe this exists already...but I have missed it. Any suggestions? Cheers Curt RE: Jason...adding OFB arty as reinfs - Jason Petho - 12-06-2007 I don't believe that option exists, although, I have been wrong many times before. If you hold off for the 1.03 release, I am adding various sized ships to the various order of battles. With that, you can expand your map to show a little more "water" and have those forces come on as reinforcements. Jason Petho RE: Jason...adding OFB arty as reinfs - Mr. Guberman - 12-06-2007 Jason, ...which might actually be barbaric, and forbid I had not thought of it: Historically...the "hodge-podge" Japanese force did move into Ambon Bay...and a Japanese MS was sunk, by the coastal arty...and the Allied prisoners, at Tantui Barracks, paid quite the price for that "war crime". Could be very interesting. Am looking forward to it. Thanx Curt
