All this ignores the point Strategic combat appears to be BROKEN for me. I shouldn't have to become a "tactical" guru if I don't want to. The game is supposed to have a strategic option that lets the computer sort all that out, is it not? My strategy appears to work just fine in strategic combat results. 7 top of the line DD's should win vs 8 early model FF's, relatively speaking. But the game crashes every time I run strategic combat.

I just rehashed this same combat for the umpteenth time in tactical. This time 5 enemy FF's and 1 of my DD's survived, and I haven't changed a thing. These results aren't just inconsistent, they're absurd.

I appreciate you taking the time to respond. This game would DIE without the user community on this forum that supports it.
