Fewer task forces make command & control easier, but larger TFs increase the odds of collisions.

I like to have a few BB as shell magnets in each amphib TF. They seem to work just fine regardless of TF size, so the more TFs the more you're taking off the covering force gun line. Can't prove this one, but that's how it seems to work for me.

So its a tradeoff.

HQs do help (assuming they're prepped for the objective). A corp and amphib HQ will each provide a different bonus.

Has the HQ amphib bug been fixed? (if a HQ landed w/ an amphib the Hq would become fragmented, usually losing the original commander)
