Mine Sweepers

Post by 1EyedJacks »

Does anyone have a clue as to the best leader attributes for a Mine Sweeping TF? I was thinking - cautious - low aggression?

Thoughts?
TTFN,

Since we cannot place someone who has experience in mine operations, I'd pick the person I would miss the least if they blundered into a mine.  I do not think that leader choice has much effect on the operation of a mine warfare task force....at least in the game.

I'm using some TFs consisting of DDs in my game - I'm running out of MSWs and DMS... I hate it when I get those messages that say my DDs have eaten a mine while sweeping... I wuz hoping that someone had already done a little testing. I hate to reinvent wheels... <grin>.

I would certainly want my MSW captain to by "careful" and "cautious"! No cowboys in the mine service!

Don't think it really matters much in WITP though.
