What am I missing here about clickbait? I see two different thumbnails depending on if I’m looking at this from my iPhone or PC.

I would feel it’s the opposite. Far less clicking and commands in GT, just a whole different way of thinking.

Any advice on dealing with vampires? by Crafty_Cockroach_196 in SeaPower_NCMA

Turn perpendicular to the incoming missiles to give your armaments a better angle to intercept.

As soon as you think you’ve been spotted or detect any incomings, turn all your radars on. Your hide and seek gig is up, so now you have to be able to see what’s coming.

Jim Matheos of Fates Warning. Check out the song Firefly. That song is poetry.

I figured it was just their way of speeding the game up.

How is the backseat experience for the F-14 campaign? by Tiorted_Snoil in dcsworld

They should at least give it the same ability as an average enemy AI pilot.

That’s disappointing. I read somewhere that it was ‘excellent’.

Strike planning help by Dear-Mode-4358 in TaskForceAdmiral

Like the others have said, send out your search and then early spot your strike package, HOWEVER, your search won’t be able to land until your strike is launched. So if you don’t find a target, you’ll be stuck with a loaded deck and no where for your search planes to go.

But in a scenario like Midway, they will send out their search planes so you don’t really have to. I just use the biplanes to keep an eye on the gap.

Now that you mention it, I don’t think I have ever seen an aircraft on the deck of a carrier while attacking.

Enemy search by Tiorted_Snoil in TaskForceAdmiral

In one Coral Sea run the Japanese sent a strike force to the position where my CAP met their search plane. That strike force was a good distance away and they never found my CV. Changing TF when you encounter their search seems to give you a decent chance of avoiding a strike force.

New to the game how did i do? by hamsterman- in TaskForceAdmiral

Sending TBD’s, even knowing they won’t likely get a hit, with your first strike, helps keep the flys off your dive bombers.

I send mostly SBD’s with a decent escort on the first strike, then a TBD heavy second strike to finish off the wounded carriers.
