A Couple Questions

[hewhoisnickel]

Short and sweet topic to cover, simply for the ease of my understanding of others’ posts. What do terms such as DD and CV mean? Could someone list all such terms and their meanings, to help me?

Also, what exactly does the average J1 attack entail? I have tried it many times, and I’ve failed. J2 and J3 have worked better for me. I play a slightly different game than most of you (US gets wartime economy bonus on the turn that war is declared, so with a J1 attack, the US starts their first turn with 57 IPCs, not 17).

Thanks in advance for your help!  :-D

@calvinhobbesliker:

AC or CC-Cruiser

Cruiser is “CA”, not “AC”.  I’m sure this was just a typo.  :-)
