Re: Carrier battles
The Gamiest tactic I have discovered with carrier battles so far is the delayed deployment tactic. Instead of deploying your aircraft at the begging of the battle, leave them in reserve. When you locate the enemy fleet you can then deploy ALL your attack aircraft around the closet carrier(s) in one...

Re: Allied: Advance to Elbe
