One disadvantage of the 'back up fighters provide a bonus of sea box/10'-suggestion is the large amount of fractions that are included in the calculations of...

I have to pipe in on this so that this gets included on the summary being prepared by Dave L. IMO, there are two key things that causes Russian blow-outs: (1)...

Lane: your whole argument hinges on the advantage the defender has vs. the invading force. Well for your information invasions are just one of the many...

Bill: one problem we have is that your start from the premise that the naval system is "finely balanced". IMO you are wrong. The naval system may work in...
Lane: Not anymore unrealistic then to have 4000 thousand planes lurking in the one box awaiting an ambush role. Never happpend in WWII. And I agree that they...
Nor are all 800 planes ever getting to the target % turn back, miss the target, have only a short time over the target. The current system doesn't represent at...
Hello all, Let me start off by saying that we always use ITPOTE and really like the effect. However, our group was toying with an idea of making a change so...
Lane: for someone who seems to have so much historical background you are ignoring some very salient facts about LBA vs CVP air. 1) LBA generally was not...
Bill: I glad you have chosen to keep the conversation on an non-emotional level and avoid the easy trap of sarcasm and belittling someone's opinion. Oops I...
I agree we should not drop the AtA value of the CVP planes in back up. But the 1/10 of AtA is too draconian, maybe your 1/2 or even 1/3 makes better sense. ...

Thanks for the detailed reply. Seems to be a nice and simple rule that adresses the 'problematic' issues regarding FTR's at sea. How is your experience by...
