Not sure that would have affect my ASW escort and patrol allocations but something I'm going to correct. 1/26/21, 12:24 PM - [Allied]: This spreadsheet is not intended to be a predictor but a tool for helping set ASW patrols and escorts.

We both are fighting for control of it. 1/26/21, 1:10 PM - [Allied]: While I've always have appreciated the way naval is handled and played in (M)WiF, this game has significantly increased my appreciation of it. 1/26/21, 1:11 PM - [Allied]: Some lessons learned the hard way along the road is you don't send out ships without air cover when the enemy has naval bombers or carrier air available. 1/26/21, 1:11 PM - [Allied]: Even if it means operating from 1 or even 2 boxes lower than you can. 1/26/21, 1:11 PM - [Allied]: That has a very historical feel to me. 1/26/21, 1:12 PM - [Axis]: Agreed 1/26/21, 1:13 PM - [Allied]: It takes time, at least for me it did, to learn that lesson over the years and it's very subtle but it's so true to the history I think. 1/26/21, 1:13 PM - [Axis]: What I have come to realize is that at the start of WWII, most ships were obsolete 1/26/21, 1:13 PM - [Allied]: Anyway, Famagusta, Cyprus take by the CW's 2nd inf div. 1/26/21, 1:13 PM - [Allied]: No roll necessary. 1/26/21, 1:14 PM - [Axis]: Only Carriers and fast floating AA batteries(mostly cruisers) to protect the carriers and transports matter 1/26/21, 1:15 PM - [Allied]: Old WW1 battleships are obsolete 1/26/21, 1:15 PM - [Allied]: Well except for the sub war 1/26/21, 1:15 PM - [Allied]: Which I feel produces in the total historical results but in the details no 1/26/21, 1:16 PM - [Allied]: For example, BBs and CAs weren't used to patrol for subs. They were exteremely vunlerable to subs. 1/26/21, 1:17 PM - [Allied]: I understand what's being represented when you send BBs and CAs out on ASW patrols or as escorts are the destroyer screens of these ships that are doing the ASW. 1/26/21, 1:17 PM - [Axis]: Right 1/26/21, 1:18 PM - [Allied]: Also an interesting interoperation when SCSs and subs tangle as we did earlier in Cape Verde Basin. 1/26/21, 1:20 PM - [Allied]: In game terms the CA Hawkins got the drop on the Italian and German sub groups. Damaged and aborted one and aborted the second at the price of being damaged itself. Now it historical terms I would see that as the RN destroyers taking care of the axis subs; but before that one of the subs got a shot or two off (torpedo's) that significantly damaged the Hawkins. 1/26/21, 1:21 PM - [Axis]: Agreed 1/26/21, 1:21 PM - [Allied]: Hence, the results to me make a lot of sense but historically there's no way that a CA would go looking for enemy subs and be a match for them./ 1/26/21, 1:21 PM - [Allied]: Anyway, almost through with my impulse. 1/26/21, 1:21 PM - [Axis]: good point 1/26/21, 1:27 PM - [Allied]: <Media omitted> 1/26/21, 1:27 PM - [Allied]: back to you for axis impulse 7.
