This is my strategy when it comes to naval warfare...[:D]

I don't want to get any messages saying that we are holding our position. We're not holding anything. Let the Hun do that. We are advancing constantly and we're not interested in holding onto anything -- except the enemy. We're going to hold onto him by the nose, and we're gonna kick him in the a**. We're gonna kick the hell out of him all the time, and we're gonna go through him like crap through a goose!

That philosophy may be fine for '44, but do it in '42 and you're gonna get your 'a' handed to you. Then again if you insist on doing it "your" way eventually you'll learn. Especially when you get to playing a live opponent. Against th AI you can do just about anything. Just keep in mind that old habits die hard.

Probably sensible to give who you are quoting there..... I'm guessing its Patton. Mistake to quote him if it is for the Pacific Theatre as its a very different ball game, as you will find out. Logistics, logistics, logistics

Good old Google search, so it is Patton, not actually credited for his naval skills....

Mid October 1944 and apart from when I was careless and let my opponent trap some of my Cvs early on I have not used them offensively yet.

Doing fine without them thank you, sat in port most of the time - but my opponent doesn't know which port.
