Has there been a Yamato sized jump in the allied score?

No, it's been like 860?, 8612, 8613, 8655, 8677 in the "points from Japanese ships sunk" since we last saw her

For what it's worth, the invisible plane bug happens if you alt-tab/lose program focus away from WITP during either the initial game start-up load screen, or during the saved game loading screen, because it causes the plane sprites to load incorrectly.

Yeah I know, but I wanted to run with the joke, however bad they are.

I'm not reporting day by day on the Yamato, as its crawling home. You will know when it reaches port or sinks.

Which brings us back to the 0.1% chance of a battleship exploding on its own during repairs or refits.

As long as there is nothing left to sink (or the remains lands on solid ground) we're technically golden.

When it reaches a (way too small port) the game will crash trying to calculate how many days it will take to repair.

I don't like these carriers. Their job is to be sunk, not to sink things.






We see a large jump in enemy points.

A new power is rising! Its victory is at hand! This night, the land will be stained with the blood of Rohan!
I inspired terror, I was the pride of our Navy,
I protected our seas, rained hell on the enemy,
Yet now, stuck from the sky, I slowly slip beneath the waves without honor,
Fight on for me, Long Live His Majesty The Emperor.




RIP Yamato, you'll have a special place in our speeches when the war end in our victory.
