in my opinion i say if you take the time to kill a port and then
kill the cv. you should then use that cv as a weapon. it should
not matter that it COULD be retaken, just use it till it does.
if you have no intention of using it as a weapon, then dont
take command of it in the first place

1- I spent an hour lookin for an MIA bish CV about a month ago, I had the points for 262 & thought it be fun to go find it & hunt NME buffs same time- it was. When i found it i called out location for bout 15 minutes till i got help to kill it, we then went on to take map in usual bish fashion. That was my first dealing with the "hide the CV" game.

2-I have no doubt that hiding those CVs helped Bish win the ndisle map from the dreaded s/e corner (has any other country ever done that? & isint this bish 3rd time?).

3-So im saying ill hide the CV cause I know someone in your country would do the same..... war is hell

I for one am totally against the hiding of cv's because they are not in the game to not be used. If that was the case then they would not have even created them.. I believe that someone telling the whereaboutsof the cv is that someone's perogative just as much as the ahole who hides the cv's in the first place. They are an asset which should be used to help the war not something to be pushed to the side.

HTC please fix this problem so we can actually use our cv's to fight the war not hide from it....

4- of course since the CV group was designed to be used & not hid, it seems that this is a part of the game that does not strive for realism & does therefore seem out of place in AH. ( i cant recall any historical carrier missions where the objective was to hide

Would this be a good time to suggest perking the N1k?

lol no Mazz:)
if you perk the nik i will never get any kills!!:confused:

i can say that i have a number of times told the location of CVs
i think that cv hidding is one of the lowest things that can be done in the game.
cv battles are some of the best fights i have had.

i personally do not see the big deal with hiding cv's. i have flown with the bishops for over 18 months now, and i find that eac hcountry is responsible for hiding cv's. i have found a simple awnser to this, find the cv and kill it. it really is not that hard. just grab a couple squaddies or fellow countrymen in some hvy jabo fiters and head out and turn the cv into a dive site. i know i have done it many times, and probably many more to come. an easy solution to this great dilemma some seem to think of it. its a game, a game of war, there are no rules or fair ways to play. i think it is a great, defensive tactical move

If that is how you want to spend your time in the game then nobody can stop you. Its your money, buddy. But what does that have to do with hiding fleets?

I personally love it when my side has a fleet hidden. It attracts all kinds of perk bombers and stuff to shoot down. Especially when somebody tells the other side where it is. All you do then is jump in a G10 and start climbing til your nose starts bleeding and then throttle back and wait til the Arados start showing up. Its like a turkey shoot I tell ya.

War had spies.If ya want to swap sides to see whats going on I say go for it since this hide and go seek looks like its here to gay....I mean stay.No I dont.Its gay.The unfortunate side effect will be of course when finding where YOUR cv is you will also see where OUR cv's are.I suppose some are willing to see that happen so they can pull there power plays.Thank God I never developed an Ego in these games.I always played cause it was fun.

Guys,

Just think how great it would be if there was a similar limit of planes per base like there is with CV:s per port. Just before the enemy captures the base we could fly all the planes into some far corner and they could not fly from the captured base at all... Each country could hide all their planes and GVs as far as possible from the enemies and just sit in their towers and throw taunts at each other...

... WOULDN'T THAT BE GREAT!!!!

Really.. it is very childish to hide the CVs... kind of like running home to mom with the ball so that other's cannot play.

OH YESSSSSS.. Clubbing baby seals when they come desperately after hidden food is a GREAT sport. Why bother fighting when one can pick on helpless targets without any risk.

Fariz is usually good with CV's for strategy.If you have a good reason for moving a CV tell the person who keeps taking command from you what you are doing and I'll bet he'll give it to you depending on siuation....Hiding eme cv's(nme has port) is strat on isle map...Friendly cv's should not be tucked 7 sectors into corner and but moving them away is good gamplay..It's all in the timing and sometimes u get burned(and almost always blamed for a cv loss)..Btw,If you are holding controll of a cv,it's a good idea to cap it and not be flying on the other end of the map or it is your fault if a lanc does an easy kill from 20k...

The CV itself is the gamey part. Unlimited ammo, fuel and planes. If you limit the amount of planes that are available on CV it would force them back into port to resupply. A resupply of planes by LTVs would force them to go to nearest friendly base to get the resupply quickly. Say 100 plane limit with a full reload at port or 25 planes per LTV. That would stop the hiding of CVs.

"Say 100 plane limit with a full reload at port or 25 planes per LTV. That would stop the hiding of CVs. "

I beg to differ.The ones being hidden arent doing anything so they dont need resuplied.There just sitting there.Its kinda like Benching Michael Jordon.It just BEING in the game can make a diffrence.But not if its not playing.I know crappy anology,but if you own the port,and your hideing the cv that far from it your going defensive and forcing alot of people to fly farther to hold the port.When your fighting GV's at your port,a cv can turn the tide.Hideing enemy cv's is just causeing everyone to do it,kinda like a mob mentality."There doing it and so will we" If one country refuses to hide these CV's and makes a stand on it,HT wouldnt have to bother with something like this.But someone has to do it first.When we hide a cv we own......I can see Bish arent gonna set any standards.Sad thing.
