What I really object to is how the program seems to protect Allied invasion TFs. I had a large Kamikaze attack on Scott's invasion fleet. I had six groups of fighters in Shanghai and southern Kysushu set to sweep. Airfields fine, high aggression commanders, squadron experiece of at least three of the squadrons was 60+, none lower than 48. This is what happened: 1) None of my fighters swept. And, the three groups in southern Kyushu stayed on the ground the entire day so Scott bombed them and destroyed 60+ fighters on the ground. 2) Some of my kamikazes flew in the morning and Scott's morning CAP, unswept, shot down almost all of them. 3) Then, as soon his morning CAP was exhausted (really when then were down to about 4 fighters), my kamikazes stopped flying so; 4) in the afternoon, the rest of the Kamikazes flew and Scott's reset CAP got to shoot down all of them as well. Naturally the fighter sweeps that did not fly in the morning did not fly in the afternoon (even the unbombed ones in Shanghai). This also happened (see earlier posts) when Scott invaded china. That time, my fighters flew in the morning and took big losses to get his CAP down to zero and then the kamis waited and flew in the afternoon so that his reset CAP get to shoot down all of the fighters in the morning and then all of the Kamis in the afternoon. It is really no fun to play a game where it appears that it is designed to hand Scott an aerial victory each time he leaves an invasion TF vulnerable to a mass attack. About 350 planes lost with no ships hit when you total up both attacks No Kamis get through but they and the CAP fly in such a way to insure that he basically gets to shoot down each plane.
