Hello Guys. Please excuse me if I somehow misuse posting etiquette- I've never posted to a discussion group like this before. I think I can shed some light on these issues. If you look at the ROE, it specifies that all Indian ships are targets. I personally believe that I'd go after the carrier to protect my vulnerable surface units from air attack. As far as the AI issue, this shortcoming is a real challenge with scenario design. I hint in the players notes that attriting Indian air assets isn't the point- however, the temptation is impossible to resist. The solution is to equip the human player with aircraft that have essentially no chance at this- the pre-HCDB080616 (which introduces a 95 mile AA-12) iteration of "No Place Like Home" is an example of that solution. Thank you for your kind words regarding this and other scenarios, and thanks for keeping this great old game alive. patrick
