Misc notes on unit usage: Here are some ways I am using my assets: Float Planes: Jakes, Alf: are used in the naval search role primarily, especially looking for subs at night. Glen: sub search Petes: Aerial CAP at night!. Works great. Norm: Long range anti shipping platform. Not tested yet. Rex, Rufes: CAP from bases with destroyed airfields, dot bases, etc, trying to pick off bombers. Third line CAP over bases. Submarines: Picket duty, very few on raiding mission. They are my distant eyes and ears looking for potential invasion fleets off Kuriles, Perth (especially Perth), Ceylon, Wake, etc. Some are running supplies to the Marshalls to keep the AA guns firing. Midget subs: I had swarmed most of them at Wake, recently sent them back to the pools. I have a few patrolling around Truk. I see these as a gift to the Allies. I am thinking of hoarding them until the Marianas or Luzon is threatened and then spawning and sending them in from contested bases in one large midget submarine banzai charge. Big ships: showing the flag, fleet in being, trying not to risk anything larger than a destroyer.
