Looking for a glossary

Post by lbusuttil »

I enjoy reading the posts, but as a newbie I am often puzzled by the abbreviations used (BB, BG etc).

I'm guessing many of these stand for unit types.

Is there a FAQ or a glossary where these abbreviations are listed with their definitions?

Thanks for your help.

Here are the abbreviations I know:

BB = battleship
DD = destroyer
CV = carrier
TAC = tactical bomber

KM = Kreigsmarine (German Navy)
HSF = High Seas Fleet, the only battleship Germany has to start the war
RN = Royal Navy
RAF = Royal Air Force

BG = ?? (I don't think I've ever seen this one)

Battlegroup? Although that's an abbreviation that isn't used in this game.
