J Wagner Posted August 3, 2002 Share Posted August 3, 2002 It's nice to see the French are aggressive and attacking my border units while I finish off Denmark and Norway. It prevents me from leaving a bare boned army in the west and it costs me mmps to reinforce my minimal losses. It's a nice nuisance and perhaps might escalate if I dont move quickly enough....

Carl G. E. von Mannerheim Posted August 4, 2002 Share Posted August 4, 2002 Is that the glorius that was sunk off norway? Not a royal navy buff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old Patch Posted August 4, 2002 Share Posted August 4, 2002 Hooray! A Naval question! The British started the war with 4 CV's in Europe: Furious (wore out and decommisioned in 1944) Courageous (Sunk 9/17/39) Glorious (Sunk 6/8/40) Ark Royal (Sunk 11/14/41) And one CVL: Eagle (Sunk 8/11/1942) They also completed 4 fleet carriers during the first two yeas of the war (Illustrious, Victorious, Formidable, Indomitable, Implacable), and since it's doubtful that any British player is going to have enough MPP's to buy another carrier during the game the original three counters must represent two ships each plus escorts.

Speedy Posted August 4, 2002 Share Posted August 4, 2002 Interesting, you say they completed 4 carriers yet you give 5 names? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old Patch Posted August 4, 2002 Share Posted August 4, 2002 Just wondering if anyone was paying attention. The Implacable wasn't completed until 1944. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
