At least you have no red arrows at the moment.
Hi Iwo Jima,
I just discovered your AARs, two days ago, and I just keep on reading them. Good joob, nice story, nice details.
Since I have only the Doomsday HOI2, and not Armaghedon version, I can't be sure about one thing: in DDHoI2, any research which is more than 2 years behind its normal time, get so much penalties, that practically get 0.0% advance per day. What is the situation in Armaghedon ?
I am talking obviously about you researching that '42 land doctrine right from '36
How do you plan to protect your valuable carriers?
Maybe you are right, that you don't have many techs to research mandatory.
Last time I have played was as Poland, with which I was forced to maximize the research before '39.
Now I want to play as RepSpain, which have medium teams, so a similar plan is needed.
The single country that I didn't enjoy playing was NatChi, because of the horrible tech teams. ( with 5 slots I was way behind Romania, with 2 slots )
But, there is only 3CVs in IJN now. And I plan to start constructing of some CV-IV next year. Anyway, there is no serious sea battles expecting in nearest future. So, this topic could wait for a couple of years.
Perhaps, but I don't think you should wait too long to build up the Navy. You might risk being overshadowed by the AI.
Just tell me, what the reason for the fleet?
So you can have naval power, of course.
