RE: V1.03 -The Downside
Thanks Ed...support from a totally unexpected quarter. Never thought I would see the day when you and I agree on anything more important than the time.
I doubt I would support the naval and air changes even if they were half reasonable, because they are unnecessary. But they are not half reasonable. They are so bad they're almost funny. I mean.....the revolutionary non-submarine U-boat is just ......... ridiculous!!!!. It is obvious that no knowledge of naval warfare was brought to bear here. The grounded bombers safe in their revetments shooting bombs to all corners of the known CS hexagonal world!!!!! Save us.
The only aspect even approaching reality is the disclaimer in the manual ....."Keep in mind that the Campaign Series is a land-based warfare game system and does not model naval fighting very well”. The "select few" should have followed their own advice.
Can't agree with your solution....sorry! These "select few" have done much excellent work...does that mean we should sit back and disregard their garbage? I don't think so. It's an old American proverb, is it not, about the effect of one rotten apple on the barrel? We have two bad ones here.
