On that note, in online play, very few players understand the importance of stating what carriers the fighters are on. It’s never an issue with face to face play, because the fighters are physically on the carriers.
I put carriers and/or fighters just across the borderline of a zone so that ABattlemap doesn’t mix them together.
If there are multiple carriers, or open slots on carriers, it is important to state or show unambiguously which carriers the fighters are on.
For example, you have 2 carriers and 2 fighters. You land the fighters in the sea zone with 2 carriers. If you don’t state what carriers the fighters are on, they could both be on one carrier, or 1 fighter on each carrier. Then when an allied power comes along and lands one or more fighters in the zone on the 2 carriers, it matters where the previous fighters were. If the carriers split up, or if they go into combat, it can be very significant. A lot of players online are oblivious to this, and don’t realize that it matters to state what carriers fighters are on, even before there is ever a multi-national force.
Just thought it might be helpful to point that out since we’re on that topic. Getting tired of pointing it out to practically each different person I play online…. :-)
