The problem is that means you could hide an Armored Corp behind me. [:@][:D][:D][8|][X(]

I pulled a CV airgroup off a CV and it reduced its number to 14 aircraft and pilots. Would this be a candidate for restructuring? If so I'll send it to the HQ. Otherwise I just figured a bug slit my squadron in half when I gave it a ground assignment.

Apparently they programmed CV groups to self fornicate if removed from CVs.[8|] Just another "bonus" I guess.

What carrier? What Group? What time frame? Did maximum aircraft change? What Base? What HQs at base? What is the condition of the carrier?

And the unspoken question, "Why did you do something so stupid?"

It did. That's the nasty, evil, vicious, Pinko-Communist resize bug. NEVER EVER take a squadron off a carrier. Have that tattooed on the back of your hand.

VF-42 F4F-3 off of the CV Yorktown. This was early in the game 1942.

I was reduced to 14 aircraft.

This was common practice in the war int he pacific to reinforce places, such as Lunga, with CV airpower.

I'm taking it this is a common problem in the game? I have another F4F-4 group that is away from its CV and it is fine.

Worr, out

Larger than a division; smaller than an army.

Armored Corporation maybe? Not an entirely unfitting description of the way the US Army is run these days, according to some.
Where's the Any key?

It was an attempt to correct spelling. I KNOW what a Corps is...
