I have a question.
When was the last time we did a tactical simulation using spacedock?
I have heard that in the past there was a Wolf 359 scenario that was played out . . . and the famous defeat of the D'Deredix by the 442nd Aerospace Squadron and the USS Vanguard.
Why have we not done more of these?
I read that at the Naval War College they do alot of these simulations to advance the tactical abilities of flag officers . . . would not simulations give those GMs who participate an edge over non-experienced players? . . . would it not help out in designing scenarios to pit your players against?
For instance . . . what of a Midway type scenario . . . could a fleet of older Starfleet Cruisers and carriers . . . take on a more modern, larger aggressor dominion fleet from taking a significant moon or single planet system?
Or a Normady scenario . . . how does a fleet of heavy cruisers and transports take on a highy motivated entrenched defense force, with equal technology.
Or a Battle off Samar scenario . . . can a group of armored transports laddened with a small amount of shuttles and a few runaboutes with their escorts of scouts/frigates hold off a fleet of heavy cruisers and cruisers to provide enough time to hold off the aggressor to decimate the landing fleet?
Or a Battle of Savo Island scenario . . . can a inferior number of vessels inflict as much, or more damage, to a larger force of similarly capable vessels?
