Men dat can take on T4 fighters with just T3 fighters are true men in my opinion :p

Problem with BWs:
a bad BW will be eaten even by a low-level (FW)-CV if the player knows what to do.
Of course there are very good BWs... I fear them :D

Problem as low-level-CV (it was a CV2)
you try to keep vision for your team against that PCV north... then get sunk by a sub (btw. how was it able to go so far into your battle-line?). And then a already sunken BB player who never played CV starts blaming you. Tells you that you are a noob.
I know, this is old, but still annoying.

And btw I just want to thank that BB player that thanked my a few days ago for my work. You dont the this very often.

In general: thank people for doing good work (and if its that little CV that scouted a BB for you) and they wont be less discouraged cause they know: i am not useless.

there is a balance issue with fighters that is very different than the tiers between battleships. bb5 are generally dominate over bb4. however, in cv, the person with higher level fighters tend to win. cv that can load more planes have a slight advantage, but the bulk of the advantage is based upon the level of the fighter pilot.

the way a cv1 with t4 fighter farms other cvs with t2 or t3 fighter is fairly different than the way bb1 with a high level crew farms other bb. with battleships, there is overheat, repair rate, range, and aa to throw into the mix. this isn't so with carriers, just level and number of fighters. yes, you can drag your fighters and do tricks to give your fighters an advantage, but that if we play this game to abuse the mechanical flaws in the game system, you're wasting your time here.

the way i see it, the learning curve is much higher for carriers, and along with the dominance of t4 pilots, this i would imagine would create a huge gap in skill level as well as population of players who choose to play carrier.

i can almost fight against all CVs which are with T4s in my FTW KMCV4
(well maybe sometimes not effective.....or even have a maga fail)

but no... no............. never can fight against high lv UST4s..... never -.-

Scouting or not, PCV fighters come in, mine go out.
Not saying its the PCV's fault or anything, he earned those levels, but how am i going to get optimal XP.

And this thread is not about scouting...

I'm starting to think BH would be more practical then feeding the "big boys".
