  • Locals on Bogue

I'm planning to pump locals on CV1 Bogue.

 

Since Bogue can send 6 planes in a row, Im planning to use 2 pilots each time to send 2x3=6 locals out of my little ship.

I need tips and tactics on FW'ing with locals on Bogue. Helpp appreciated

i do suggest you get more pilots to utilize the bogue more

 

that said

the bogue strong with bombers in blitzkrieg weak as hell in gb

 

the best tactic i can give you for gb is to stick closely to the fightline as where the bb are but do keep away a little to not get shot :P this way you can  launch locals that can tear up any dp/tb and fighters plus scouts that come the bb's way

 

in blitzkrieg they are king but any cv is really except hobbit war map :P

Your tactic to send out 3 fighters on each pilot sounds good. Locals do not have much fuel, but they have a high attacking power. They are also kind of fast.

Look at the enemy CV's before the game starts. If you are facing a BW, you can ruin his day by intercepting all of his bombers.

If you are facing a normal cv, attempt to shoot down any planes over your bb's. Recycle your FP (don't let them crash into the ocean due to lack of fuel) and with the next wave, push out further.

Always search for planes coming across the border. Always search for planes trying to go below your planes.

Watch for the enemy fighters trying to camp your teams higher lvl CVs.   Your locals can tear up a bunch of camping fighters and allow the other CV to launch bombers.

Also, consider using some of the ship tuning drops to extend aircraft fuel and even increase the number of locals.   You will loose a number due to lack of fuel so the more locals you have, the better.

Situational awareness is a must.   If the BBs in your area are pulling back, you best turn and run. 
Also, it won't take very many enemy bombers to take you out, so you might consider smoke as a way to cover yourself and get the locals off the deck.

and have fun

I suggest at least 4 fighter pilots, 2x2 party, 2 on the fly while the other 2 are getting ready. For hunting scouts, only 1 pilot will be fine. I do the same with Mogami CA/CV. 3+2 planes on two sets of pilots. But you will need more on higher lvl CVs, so better raise more pilots.

Thank you all for suggestions. I will try to get at least 4 pilots, excluding bombers.

Locals are just plain bad news to any BW. Unfortunetly, they better favor self-defence then fighter cover. That doesn't mean that fighter cover is impossible, it just means you will have to stick closer to the battle lines. Steer clear of BB's, both yours and theirs. If you get to close to yours, you will prohibit them from firing. If you get to close to theirs, well, figure it out. xD Hope I helped!
