Title: Task group controll
Post by: DOUG on August 03, 2009, 10:01:31 PM: Would like to have rudder controll of cv, and Not have the CA stumble back and forth on both sides of planned intended movement.
I think thats reasonable, but the REAL wish is,cv commander being able to eject ppl from the mannned guns. Sometimes people of questionable intentions switch sides and mann guns POORLY :noid ty elfy

Also I have had experiences where people will just waste the 8 inch ammo on friendlies and it is stupid, both are great ideas. I have also seen people with the highest ranking in the game put CVs way North of any action and say they are "saving" it for later often after other people with lower ranks have control of them. Nice thread. :salute

Post by: Sabre on August 04, 2009, 08:56:26 AM: I third your request, and add that I'd like to see speed control available as well, allowing a TG CC to slow the TG down while doing shore bombardment. This "Helm Control" (rudder and speed) would over-ride plotted movement as long as the TG CC remained on the bridge (i.e. in the CV's tower). I would also add that the TG would also not re-spawn while the TG CC remains in the TG's tower, even after loosing the flag ship goes down. Instead, when the flagship is destroyed, the TG CC would be transferred to another ship's bridge (within the TG) and continue to fight the TG from there until all are destroyed, the TG CC gives up command, or the TG CC leaves the bridge.

Doesn't this sound like our, "government?" :D

My take is the opposite of this.
