Can you arm and fuel a strike group before any target has been found and selected, so they are ready to launch as soon as a target is found.

If so what game procedure must be followed.
(with apologies if this is explained somewhere but I cannot find a ref to this)

Many thanks

yes you can. there is a button for arm/refuel when you click on the task group. left side, midway down. more than one carrier, more arm/refuel buttons

Isn't it the "Carrier Screen" button, 2nd from the left at the bottom of the screen? Then the "Arm" button is on the left of that dialog in the middle?

For landbases it's still the 2nd button from the left called "Airbase Screen" button. Then it's the same "Arm" button midway on the left side.

If there is another Arm button I would like to know as I have missed it. [&:]

sorry, yes it is the carrier screen it is on

It's easy to do. I had to go back into the game twice to get my button names right. [;)]

Page 28/29 of the manual and Tutorial 13, but the helpful posts above should have you on the right track already.
