Happened to me too.

Notified of attack, and on station, with IJN Task Force reports coming in.

But the only thing we encountered was a hornets' nest of Aircraft.

"Enermy aircraft spotted!"

--> Dive to Periscope Depth ( those Zero's sure can carry a bomb load )

---> Add, Rinse, Repeat

The paradigm for CV air groups is bad, and it makes operating near a group of CVs extremely annoying.

My mod to mess with CV air groups reduces them to extremely low levels, but I think it doesn't go far enough.

With a campaign that included scripted airstrikes for the real CV battles, I think I'd remove CV aircraft totally. That or drop the range of CV planes to 50km or so as a CAP over the fleet.

I might try a version, "bungo pete clone" the A6M, B5N, and D3A to A6M_CV, etc. Have CV airgroups have a single plane in each group, or maybe 3 zeros (no bombs), and the range short enough you'd not see them til right on top of the CVs.

Since they'd point at the stock plane models, it shouldn't add to the system overhead.

Thank God Its a game .. Guilt repression , and feeling strange .. If anyone can activate a"I" series sub and have the same Dynamics of Sh4 but Only using a IJN sub maybe I would feel alot better , My grandpa would turn over in his grave if he found out I was Killing samurai warriors . Well Iam sure the whole comunity of SH4 US subs would be hunting me .. Ihave to remember thats its THE "AI" trying to kill me . Guessing thats not so bad -- so there not real .. I have too tell all here my family came from satiama Japan near toyko .. I go to japan yearly for golden week . Its like having thanksgiving thats a holds out for a week . We all love this game .. Hunting stalking and killing "AI" Ships -- There not japanese .. Ok I got that , Iam going to make mod that shows IJN as a X flag reminding me that Iam fighting "X " country . Sometimes -- AI Are just plain bastards , Iam getting fired up and forgetting about what flag they fly .. Like Oleg Maddox of Il2 , Maybe SH5 should be a lenghty campaign of being axis or allied , Would make something interesting , in multiplayer . Giving you the option of chossing sides .. Comon theres was someone in the east that desinged this game . he also had all of the aircrafts represented . Why Not all of the subs .... Dam if only Oleg was into Sub warfare ?? If you come across the virtual USS Tuna , Remember its the guy called Kimura , with the slanted eyes , Killing the same AI as you are fighting against .. I Love this game . havmt flown a betty or a zero or a val in ages . Water goes well with me . were in hell do you get sushi ? .

This patrol in the asiactic fleet I have killed 3 merchants . and on my way too being on station too kill more X flags , In the phillipines !!

Iam the sun warrior saling on
