I have been massacring the carrier-based planes on board of English aircraft carriers for three turns now. Sometimes 4-0, 3-0 or 3-1. But they never stop coming back (two carriers around). Does it really hurt them?

Second wave

Third wave

UK has 4 carrier I believe

Imho the British Carriers in every game of the European Theater I've played (like SC3, etc.) are used uber-aggressively by the Allied player in the early war years. I know the Swordfish TBs sank the Italian Fleet...however until after the Battle of Britain was over in '41, carrier pilots were a scarce breed, and the fleet in being was considered of more value than risky uses by the Admiralty. But it is what it is. I think that replacing carrier pilots should be very expensive early in the war.

I was told later a third CV was involved. And yes, it was costly.
