Allies Defiant Campaign...

I have to say thus far it is excellent...
Just finished Matapan and was interested to how Naval Warfare would work. But as usual all the little details which require some knowledge of military history are present and correct.
Little things like damaged ships being slowed, torps being effective against Capitals versus dive bombers against escorts. That sort of stuff.. I particularly liked seeing HMS Ladybird turn up at Tobruk.
Difficulty is about right, I'm beating most scenarios first time out only with catastrophic losses sometimes and the odd secondary going askance. Seems familiar but much deeper.
As for the AI getting very favourable die rolls to take out my 2* Cruiser MkIV though. Grrrrrrrr! Shows I care I guess.
Anyway, well done devs.
