Formations, Strategies, Etc. -- The ***** List

[Dogberry]

IMHO .. if the placement of ships within a formation becomes more sophisticated..it should still adhere to some simple principles and variations thereof.

That is, heavies to the front & or center, lights to the flank, ancillaries & auxillaries to the rear. You can theoretically play with this a bit with such old historical formations such as "echelon left or right" .. or refuse flank .

Again, just my .02 cents.
