Status: offline 		I voted "never can tell". Every carrier battle is a gut-wrenching experience. Even a single plane can sometimes get through to score a critical hit. Because UV is this way, it is very replayable. If you lose all the time, you need to re-examine your tactics and dispositions or maybe you're playing opponents better than you. I believe either side has a chance in an equal battle. 10 IJN CVS are going to trouce 3 allied CVS most of the time but even weather could affect this outcome.

Status: offline 		[QUOTE=HMSWarspite]Hi, I shall have to read this. However, I didn't say that Allied victory was inevitable, I said " USN ones [CV] only set the timing of the war, not the result", by which I mean that the US naval victory over Japan was inevitable. I can see no scenario where the US fail to destroy the Japanese merchant marine (having demolished the CV fleet). Ge is an entirely different matter![/QUOTE]

Sorry, wasn't suggesting that at all - if the Japanese had won at Midway the Allies probably would have won the war anyway only later with higher casualties and leaving a very different post-war Europe. Whilst at University I took a course on WW2 as part of my History BA and leant heavily on Overy's book (and got a 1st too!!). What I like about it is that it's very accessible.
