[Tack]

Well if we're all on... Right now... Why not... Right now?

My steam name is Tack. Makes it easiest short-term.
Does B12/DFG/DFC have a discord or are we still relying on the IRC?

[Sheb]

Because, you know, I'm at work?

[Ultimuh]

I am also at work.. Avoiding work.. ᴰᵒᶰ'ᵗ ᵗᵉᶫᶫ ᵐʸ ᵇᵒˢˢ⋅⋅ <_<

[forsaken1111]

Working until 3 then class work until 5ish, I could play after 5 for 2-3 hours

[Aseaheru]

 Theres a bay12 discord at this link, theres also a Urist McStation one which, while technically mostly Bay12 peoples is intended for SS13.

[Tack]

Hmm... All of these people at work might get in the way of HoI, yes.

[Ultimuh]

Weekends are fine by me. As long as I do not have anything planned..
I must ask meatspace people if any plans were made, in case I forgot..

I set my fleet to search and destroy but upon doing so I don't seem to be able to assign planes on carriers to do things while they are search and destroying. How exactly do you use carrier effectively? Do you keep your carriers in a separate group from your search and destroy navy with some fodder so they can endure an attack until the search and destroy units join in? If I add a carrier to a mission, will it use the planes in combat? What about nearby land combat?

[Tack]

Carriers assigned on missions will use their planes in any combat they come across. It's a pretty insane first chunk of damage - in fleet combat you should see the participating aircraft in the top corners.

Of course, air support in the area will also join there so it's up to you whether you want to keep your carriers seperate (and vulnerable) from the fleet and just have them give air support to the entire area using the planes normally.

[Aseaheru]

 The main thing that I can tell with aircraft on carriers VS aircraft in zone, for the most part aircraft in zone with have a low number of them show(particularly with earlier versions of aircraft) while carrier based aircraft always appear show in their full numbers. For example, I have had 200 level 2 naval bombers assigned to a zone, but only 34 show in the sole naval combat.

[Jopax]

Think that has to do with coverage. Those 200 have to cover the entire naval zone while the CV based ones are right there and have the one job of supporting their attached fleet.

So the UK went to war with and got defeated by the axis before I could even finish war plan black. Now the UK is gone and I'm guessing it's pointless to go down to "destroyers for bases" as I will get nothing. Is this correct?

[Micro102]

Ok all my convoys have disappeared for some unidentifiable reason. I'm america and am taking the UK back from Germany. Along the way I lose a bunch of convoys, 30 at a time. The naval results show neither enemy planes or ship, just my convoys dying. I thought it might have been the ships and planes they had in the area. So I finished the conquest of the UK and flood the area with planes and ships. The result? 100's of my convoys are dying at once in the protected territories, no details on why.

Does anyone know why hundreds of my convoys are being destroyed at once while under protection of literally hundreds of boats and planes?

[Sheb]

Sounds likea bug.

[Micro102]

Ok so I managed to survive as Ethiopia and have gotten back my land and joined the Allies, but now the UK (a democratic nation in the allies) is justifying war on me. How? I don't even have the option to do so to other allies, and being democratic, to justify war on anyone requires them to cause world tension, which I haven't. So I am really scratching my head as to why my democratic ally can justify on me.
