Yep sounds about like our military. I remember when ever we played games everything was scripted for one side or the other to win. In the end the only thing that improves is morale, because "we killed the other guys cause we're betterz lol." granted we had an advantage being the submarine, but come on how do you expect these skimmers to find a real submerged threat ever. Case in point, the Chinese subs that got within our CVBG's "comfort zone."
