waynec -> carrier-based to carrier-trained (11/7/2005 6:49:43 AM)
did a pdf search and came up empty. am playing allies solomons campign and have 3 CVEs in noumea. of course all my CVs are being repaired (or collecting barnacles) but LBA just beat up the kb death star. but i digress. i have a carrier-capable SBD unit on each of the CVEs and running ASW patrols just off noumea. will this turn carrier-capable units into carrier-trained units? OT loved the OKW (oberkommando der Wifen) comment in another post. [image]local://upfiles/6704/C4F6C453197A45EC8CB02B1AACF5BB14.jpg[/image]

Carrier-trained are only groups which start out on ships. This is one reason why it is not a good idea to swap around groups on CVs. You can't train a carrier-capable into a carrier-trained. Michael

Carrier capable DO NOT train up to Carrier trained! Basing a 'carrier capable' unit on a CV will cause higher Op losses - the pilots have not been trained to land on a small moving airstrip [:D].

Don't worry about it. All that will happen is higher ops losses. The joy of playing the Allies is that you have plenty of replacement planes and pilots. If a carrier capable plane flown by a non carrier trained pilot goes into the drink there are 20 more of each waiting to replace him.

That is one thing about arm-chair generals...just keep throwing troops at enemy. There are plenty of resources to build new ones.[;)] Michael [Must admit sometimes, I do same thing...just a a few more units and I will conquer that city.]

Well, the Soviets did it too...

[sm=sterb003.gif] I find it very easy to send digital troops off to their death. IRL I am much more careful with the people assigned to me.
