Please remove all naval operations, cv's etc

No real point when any buffoon with a bomber can suicide-tard his way to lamer heaven with little or no effort.  Just ditch the boat crap, because that's all it is now anyway.

it took me years of practice and thousands of cv's sunk to kill cv's with little or no effort.

Well, that certainly says something about your learning curve.

:O

All it took me was the introduction of the tu2 and a couple months.

The solution I think is to make ack more fearsome to bombers. As is now, ack is just for ambiance.

How about making the battleship the flagship of the fleet and making it a lot harder to sink, lets say 5 times harder than the CV? Then make sunk CVs (and CAs and DDs) regenerate after 15 minutes or so. That way a bomber can still shut down air operations over a fleet temporarily but it will take a bit more effort to get the whole fleet to re-spawn to its port. Fleet aircraft attacking a base when their CV is sunk would have to make the decision to either cap the fleet until it comes back or try to take the base.

This is an awesome idea.  Friggin awesome!

Look, I'm just sayin.... busting CV's is limited only by the amount of time it takes to fly a formation to it's location.  That's it.  What's the point?  At the current time, the ONLY effective employment of a CV is to sneak it within bombardment range and HOPE some noob doesn't take off too early. (Shades and the "insta-action" mindset play a huge part in this)  AFTER waiting 2hrs for it to "get there".

A more pressing question is, is this nonsense going to remain with AHIII?

The only nonsense that will be in AH3 is what the players bring with them.

Unless there is someone defending the CV, because there's nothing easier to shoot down in AH than bombers on a anti CV run.
But I know, nobody likes to do that... you'd rather see 20 guys in blue planes hovering over that enemy field in hope for a vulch than a single guy 12k over the Cv to kill the bombers  ;)

Tumor, just give us a list of everything you don't like doing so we can deny everyone the fun they have with stuff you hate.
