No destroyer support

Post by thedoctorking »

This isn't really a bug so much as a complaint about the arbitrary division between "Carrier Force" and "Main Force". My force in this scenario has a lot of powerful DDs in it - 3500 ton 6x6 guns HSSM ASuW specialist DDs. But for some reason, they've been assigned to guard the carriers and the BCs are out with no DD support whatsoever. If it weren't for my little Austrian buddies, we'd be totally naked here. And I can't switch DD divisions from the "Carrier Force" or create new divisions that I could fill up with reassignment (which you can do between divisions in different forces). Leaves me wondering how "Brilliant" that admiral I assigned to this region can be if he lets something like this happen...

If you are allowed to reassign ships, you can swap out the good DDs from the divs that can only support carriers to one that can support main force. Pull the old switcheroo . . .
