25 miles is  more then a little ridiculous. Shore batteries wont even shoot that far for one thing and for another the fleet guns can only shoot about that far.

to be honest

on alot of maps if the cv is not bright in close

the airbases will be closer then the CV would be


it seems alot of people just use cv's to create instant furballs and shorten flight times

which I am not bashing, just what I see

Yup works great untill the capture types or the buff types kill it.

Yep. That's what I like them for. The downside to that is those that manage to get the cv real close to shore and then man the guns and start sniping at the planes that are defending the base when they're engage with the carrier planes.

That really annoys me. I don't have a problem with the ship's guns being used to shell the town or defend the fleet. It is very annoying, though, to be engaged with an enemy plane and some gun bunny from the enemy fleet that's too scared to up a fighter ends up blasting you with a 5" gun while you're in a nice fight.

The only thing that gets me pissed off is when they have it so close you can't get alt for divebombing.

Or until someone puts the CV so close to the base that you can get hit by ack-ack on the runway depending on where you spawn, and the whole field is covered by 5".
