Still not sure how CV ownership is relevant to your rant. Or even "Feet dry spawning" - whatever that is.
seems to me you're just pissed he wanted to fight and would blindly follow you into a stealth base take.
If your strategy involves avoiding combat, then the problem is you.
Feet dry spawn? Are you that new and still had to be a d!ck with that last comment? FYI
When numbers are low, you do what you can. The cv sitting quietly offshore doing its work unsuspecting is a valid "tactic" and critical when you only have two or three people. It is not a strategic objective, as opposed to strat running and/or consecutive base takes against one side for the win etc.
This tactic "to take a base" is used by first, deacking the base wiht ship guns, drop the veh hanger then run an lvt, an aircraft launches (revealing the cv) only after veh hanger is down, and to protect the lvt from incoming a/c or veh from the remote spawn. Not sure what happened here but I think the seasoned player upped before veh hanger was dropped, alarmed the enemy to cv proximity (by taking off) base alert, red guys reacted.They rolled out of the "still up" veh hanger and the "seasoned player bomb tarded them and maybe killed one or two incoming red guys, either a/c or veh. from remote spawn. He probably landed 5 or 6 kills, looked great in lights but as a result, all of the patient work that OP did was ruined. Sorry for the long reply but is was obvious by your "combat" comment you needed it spelled out.
and good strategy avoids combat, "art of war" but then you are probably part of the ho and ram gang and consider that combat lol
