If we can't have an early war area or closer fields then... Why not just add 40 or 60 carrier groups? Nobody doesn't like a good cv fight (except those who don't get to participate and feel left out).

I like CV fights but they generate a lot of squeakin'. Maybe if there were more and thus each one were less important we wouldn't hear so much? Then again, I ususally have little problem tuning it out. A trait I might add that my wife is very proud of, or is it frustrated with?

Sounds good to me!

I say take a map like the NDIsles map and put a port on each island except Furball Island (it would get a Tank City or Tank Jungle in the middle instead) and you'd really have something.

Hey map makers! How difficult would this (see quotes) be to do? This would be great IMO.

Add a "troop ship" to each group, that can be sunk to disable LVTs. Then there will be no need to kill the carriers to protect fields from capture.

I like that idea, even in the present maps. Though there'd need to be 2 or 3 of 'em I think.

just a straight early war map (where all late war planes were disabled) would be good...would really spice things up...

having more cv's would be great.

...but the TG's closest approach to land should be extended. Its kinda lame to have a TG parked so close to land that the ack umbrella extends over an airfield.

Even with the above restriction it would make for some really nice fights.

Hey! Give credit where its due! The proper reference is "GoFaster's Port At Every Isle Idea" (tm).

The only thing I really detest about the CV groups is the 5 inch guns. You can mop the floor with some guys, and instead of coming back for more they hide in the 5 inch guns and just hold the trigger down... if the 5 inch guns weren't there I'd vote yes for more CV groups.

CV fights are gayer then pork and auger.

You get ack huggers, pt dweebs, 5 inch dweebs and suicide pork and auger types all in 1 place.

or do you mean cv fights are fun because you can drive 1 up to an nme field and thus have a 20 sec flight time?

If thats so then you dont need cvs for that just place the af's closer on the maps. Atleast they cant be sunk and then sent 3 hours away after they respawn.

Since I dont fly cv planes my experience may be different but when a cv gets parked offshore I usually go else where. Now if we could have a bunch bases like a4 / a5 on the island map or a8 / a27 that would be much better. The furballs at these 2 places are the best in any game ever.

CV sux worse then night time.

CV fights are the best.

Period.

That's the little "dot" at the end
