I really think that BB players would complain less if they also ran a CV at any level. It really seems to me that everything depends on everything. I heard alot about getting AA ships, let me add this. How about clearing the path for subs. Take you torp planes early, sweep in front of the sub charge and get those subs into the battle line. It is hard to bb the aa ships, it is hard to bomb 50+knot aa ships, but subs can have their way with them if you help them get through.
As a cv player i always send tb's ahead, and take on any target of opportunity. Focusing on asw ships and subs at first.
Even with T1 and T2 fighters, you can wear down superior fighters. Maybe you do get owned badly early, but u may come out ahead later in the fight with superior numbers. Drop you T1 and T2 altitudes some, allow friendly aa to help out. If you wait for openings, T1 and T2 fighters can sneak out of your line where they can do more good.
Another thing that would help with better cv play is simply waiting for at least 6 cv's. How many times do they run with 4 cv's, and sure you get some bad mismatches. One lvl 120 cv will dominate those games and it is unfair to complain about cv play when you get a poor cv balance.
As a bb player, i get frustrated with cv's at times, but I do not complain. Try pulling out a cv from time to time and see what the game is from the cv point of view.
