CV Denial

[wolf37]

swamprat, I have flown Knights since beta one, and I have never seen the knights try to allie themselfs with either the Rooks or the Bishops.

I know I have said come on rooks lets get bish or whatever, but NOONE takes this seriously,  whenever i have made a statement like that (and most others as well) it has been basically a taunt.
WAKE UP!! u know how hard it is to coordinate with 1/2 a dozen teammates let alone a whole team.  surely you're not this naive.

Wouldn't want to think so, just call'em as I see'em.  What happened happened dude...try and make a liar outta me all you want, doesn't change a thing.

Hey SwampRat, I need a favor.

I have read and reread my replies and cannot find exactly where I said what you said I said in your 4:56PM 1/2/01 reply to  me.

I figured since you are adept at enclosing quotes in your replies, in fact more adept at that than you are at hangin' on to yer CVs, you could point me to the aforementioned statement.

Thanks.

When did they put this thing in here and WTF is it for?

Even if two sides did organize to route one country, it would be difficult at best since icons are all the same color, red.  You wouldn't be able to discern who is who fast enough (yes, they have the little country outlines on icon, but all I see is RED!)

BTW, I have a screen shot 24 hours after your original post showing Rooks having the most fields, Bish down to 2 fields, and Knights with about 10 fields, would you like me to post that?  Just goes to show you, it was your turn in the bucket.

If your country doesn't have any CV's, there's a very, very simple remedy: go get some. Look at CV's as being a priviledge, just like radar - if you don't protect them, if you sail them right down the middle of the enemy front and they get "gangbanged" and sunk, then you don't deserve the priviledge of using them. And, as for the numbers issue... It's alot easier to defend a CV than to sink one. Even better, if anyone bothers to take command of it, you can have the fleet perform some nice evasive manuvers. The other day there was a lanc bombing a knight CV group, and nobody at all was defending the CV, so I just took command and put the fleet into some radical turns by changing the waypoints alot. The lanc gave up and flew off without scoring a hit. This is one of the beautys of player controlled CV's - a defense force of 4 people can stop almost any attack, and a tiny bit of thinking will ensure that you don't put the CV into a position where it will die.

<S> G'day all.

First off I'd like to state that I and the rest of my squad are rook to the core.

Secondly....if you want the CV back, go capture any enemy held airfields in rookland near our port, then capture the port, then sink the CV...hey presto! you have a fleet back. Takes a bit of co-operation and forethought, but it is definately within the realms of possability.

BTW, I have seen a few differant occasions this week where rooks owned three or more CVs at once, the ebb and flow of battle will mean that ALL sides experience denial of some part of the game......nobody seems to mind when the radar goes down, everybody just accepts that if they had of defended their homeland better, they would be able to enjoy 'all' the features of this sim, why should the fleets be any differant?

And resetting as soon as any country has no CVs? why?  They arent THAT big a part of the game, AH worked just fine before we had CV's, why should they now be the deciding factor in who wins the war?

Dont get me wrong, I love flying from a CV too, and think that the addition of a Navy side of things is a big improvement to the game, I just dont agree that every country should NEVER be without one, and dont agree with squeaking just becuase your country is getting its arse kicked....if it really means that much to you, why waste time here? why not go take the damn thing back?
And if you find that being denied a CV is a REALLY big hassle, try taking not only ours back, but grab theirs while you're at it.

War is hell aint it?
