Default Re: Renaming task forces?

I'll add renaming TFs to the Suggestions database. I'll also add something for air reinforcements to address the issue Skanvak mentioned (wanting to reinforce both of two neighboring bases).

For rebasing, as OTGamer said, a patrol mission to the new base is the way to do it. If you want your CVs based at a particular major port, you can have them patrol that port and they will base there. Yes, I know, you need them to patrol a different base! That's part of the choice you have to make in ship usage. Patrolling a minor base means (for a CV or BB) spending as much time at the base as possible to protect it, steaming off for refuelling/replenishment to the nearest base. Patrolling Borneo from the Home Islands means a pretty incomplete patrol since the ships would spend most of their time steaming back and forth. So, the game defaults to the nearest suitable base so as to maximize time on station.
