the bigger the ships the more support slots are available, in CA class it's 4 (5 for
RN), i think it's better to have some nice AA-Gunners in proper level for T-Slot, so
why wondering about using repairs/restores in the valueable T-Slots? (ok, not for US
CL/CA line, the t-slots are just to small there)

just remember that a decent AA is important on the big boggies

Okie dokie... got it Kevin thanks. No I'm just wondering how I should config my
future ships.

... from the question you asked

"Do Repairman and Restoreres have to be in the Support Slots of a Ship in order to
function?"

yes, repairman and restorers need to be in the support slots to fully function

So Repairmans will work perfectly fine in a Torp Slot....right?

Hmmm.... lol ok kool thanks.... That stranges indeed.... why restorers don't work well
in T slot. Thanks Kevin.

repairman yes

restorers.. sorta... they dont contribute as much to repairing unless they are in a
support slot, otherwise... they can be anywhere
