Re: Invasion Minimums?
 

I can confirm this. Any Allied ships causes the IJN invasion to fail. I tried using all of Formosa ships (2xBC, 12xCA, 7xCA, SNLF-1) also. Any Allied ships (USS Houston in this case) causes the the tactical screen to be bypased and an automatic invasion failure.

Failure also happens sometimes on Raid Missions. I just launched a raid from West Coast to Japan (Home Island) and nothing happened. Either this is a bug, or the missions has been cancelled for some other reason (a die rool depending on the distance ?) but in the last case, some message should inform the player about this. :rolleyes:

If you get a green line to a base and a successful raid/invade icon, and the TF doesn't make it, it's a bug.

Re: Invasion Minimums?
 

Yes, I had both. :)

Re: Invasion Minimums?
 

Well, Leyete is definately buggy. I have tried in several games to invade it turn 1 with Japan. I have used small TF's and I have used huge TF's, and the invasion always fails on turn 1.

Hi everyone,

This is a bug. If there are no aircraft at all (land-based or carrier-based), and surface ships defending, this will happen.

My apologies for this one.

Re: Invasion Minimums?
 

Just a quick note...I had something similiar happen late in an MP game at aluetian(sp?) islands. Attacked with a BB, 3CA, 3CL, and an amphib. Never had combat there at all, and the invasion failed. I am 100% sure there were no enemy ships there at the beginning of the turn, and almost, but not 100%, sure there were no ships there at the end of the turn. I didnt think to ask my opponent if he sent a patrol there.
