kbfchicago -> RE: Admirals vs Captains ? (8/29/2017 9:58:27 PM)

An additional comment following my comment above (sounding kind of Monty Python-ish...and now for something completely different...) If you are looking for a "historical" player, one who plays in large part to simulate the war vs. a "game" player who looks for advantage based on how the game works regardless of historical realism, a question to ask is "how and why do you assign TF commanders". I consider myself a "historical" player. I assign a TF commander (or validate who was auto-assigned) for any TF of note; all CV, surface combat, specialty combat (e.g. ASW), amphibious. Convoys I don't worry too much about (as IJ worry more, especially later in war to dodge allied subs). Same with unit commanders. I never put a Captain in charge of a Brigade, don't care how good he is. Air Sqdns - MAJ or better (Fragments are fair game down to LT) Separate Bdes are LTC or better, Divisions are BG or better, Demi-Bdes (Divisions that have been divided) COL or better - ALWAYS Sorry for the seemingly random rant...there were a number of recent threads on how to find the "right" opponent for specific play styles, seemed apropos. I'll go back to my wine now, you may return to watching the Penguin on the top of your telly. Kevin
