1. I had 2 CVs, 2 BBs, several cruisers and a bunch of DDs in a group. They ended up in a night engagement with 3-4 enemy ships, and my CVs took significant damage. Would I have been better off putting the surface ships in one TF, the CVs with some DDs in a second one, and have the second one follow the first? Or would I be risking larger problems if my CV TF still ended up being hit. In other words, is the "Follow" command mearly administrative, or will a surface TF with a react range screen (completely?)--same hex or 1 hex back? 2. In a land battle, if you have an LCU doing a deliberate attack, should the guns in the same hex bombard attack, or join in the deliberate attack? Does it matter if we are talking about heavy guns, or 81mm mortars? 3. Recon by fire: You are about to attack by land...Singapore. You have a 10/10 detection, but you don't know the fortification level, or the exact AV force in there. Do you ever run a small unit at it in a deliberate attack, as a recon, to find out more info? In FOW, the results you get accurate? I don't like the thought of reconning, essentially, with the whole attack force. And, unlike running in a DD to a port looking for a CD, land recon missions would seem to me to be fairly realistic.
