It was not predetermined as the Aliied CiC was expected to solve the issue at hand. Had the CiC rolled only a handful of Spits and put 40+ on defense from the CV, it would have been a slaughter. The Axis sent about 20 109s to cut off Spits which there could have been zero of. There was no prevention of defense as the Allies could have rolled all F4F and Hurricanes if they wanted.

I understand your complaint and I think it is warranted. The action should have been a little closer in both frames. But, to argue accuracy or partiality is incorrect. I appreciate your feedback and urge you to always leave feedback on FSO designs. It really helps them improve.

Well Perdweed,considering your CO of one the squads that bounced us on the only possible route along the 6 sectors we had to fly to get to the fleet,  I'm not buying that long and disingenuous load. Will not be flying any fso your involved as Cm .
To any squad that thinks they can cherry pick FSO participation I refer you to this.  Squads are required to participate in all the frames

Just so we are clear :).  The AK squad never had plans to avoid any FSO's.

My comment was never aimed at one squad. Just a reminder that while we all have moments. We also have a commitment to all players that we show up. AK's have a long and honorable tradition with FSO. Honestly until you mentioned AK's I did not know the quote I used was even an AK.

Understood.  I really do appreciate all the work the CM team does month in and month out.
