Basic Fleet Operations

I think it's time that everyone stop asking the question, "What's the range."

Lost me at "it's automatic flak and it doesn't kill hardly anyone"

I probably have 4 puffy deaths this tour alone because of buzzaw.

Well, you don't operate fleets anyway, right?

The "Bishop Navy"?

Does it really take over 20 minutes to tell people how to hide a CV?

I got a lot of good comments by people online. Not you of course. We can all see how you hate the fleets now. You completely miss the fact that there are many people playing this game and many, many of them disagree with your attitude.

BTW, it is really, really easy to avoid getting hit with puffy even on Buzzsaw, but it is really sad to see someone take the negative tone you have.

Feel better.

No I dislike when they place them in the middle of bases just so they have puffy shooting at enemy fighters even when they have friendly fighters engaged with said enemy fighters....

If puffy ack wasn't effective...why would it be a tactic at all?

So, what you really want is to be able to press a field, or CV, without risk of death. I see.

Then there is this whole achievement concept where killing airplanes with a manned gun is the goal.

Yeah. . .

poor choice of imagery removed

Yeah, see now I don't even consider that a valid option. For one thing, in water based maps CVs are an important asset that can help you win. Hiding one only delays the end. It may have been a valid option back when there were 700 players daily, but not now.

And rather than single Bishops out . . . I'm pretty sure there are players on all sides that do it.

Chalenge, do you know what the max effective range of the 8" is? I gave your instructions a try and they worked so well I'm wondering how far away I can hit effectively.

34k. I'm not sure if you can set radar rings to that distance, but it would make a pretty good indicator of relative positions if you did that offline.
