@79.44.26.3 And thats why I'm telling you that you dont even know what you're talking about:


 * You like to use carriers for AS and killing as many trash as possible. Of course you're not aware that the times where killing as many trash as possible isn't even possible due to the torpedo roll factor and the lack of strong planes, but apparently you don't really care.
 * You like to use as few carriers as possible and you automatically assume that CVB aren't fit for this role.
 * You keep bringing up that the slot difference makes a huge difference, which apparently makes CVB inferior. Sure, with 3x 27 slots, you will do more damage during the opening, but you're already deciding that CVBs are inferior when they are superior in almost any other areas.

Since you repeatedly kept bringing up the point that the opening air strike is that huge of a difference, let me clarify it for you.

Assume you use a Tenzan Model 12 (Tomonaga Squadron) as the basis for the opening airstrikes, which has 15 stats, here's the damage of every slot from both forms:
 * slot sizes are 27/27/27/12.
 * 0.8x roll = 82.35 while 1.5x roll = 154.41
 * 0.8x roll = 82.35 while 1.5x roll = 154.41
 * 0.8x roll = 82.35 while 1.5x roll = 154.41
 * 0.8x roll = 61.56 while 1.5x roll = 115.44


 * slot sizes are 34/24/12/6.
 * 0.8x roll = 89.97 while 1.5x roll = 168.69
 * 0.8x roll = 78.78 while 1.5x roll = 147.72
 * 0.8x roll = 61.56 while 1.5x roll = 115.44
 * 0.8x roll = 49.39 while 1.5x roll = 92.61

Aside from the 3rd slot, the damage difference is minimal and this does not even include the Aircraft Proficiency critical damage bonus. Now, tell me how many times it actually mattered that you had one more specific slot that dealt more damage, compared to the fact that you can shell during 中破. In light of Aircraft Proficiency, the damage difference from slot size is nearly irrelevant, it's as if aren't even aware of what Aircraft Proficiency does.
