I completely agree - the last battle of the Virginia made no sense at all in terms of how it supposedly happened. You can see a real lack of naval operational knowledge throughout the books - the task force in the RDF is lacking a lot of ships.
For one two full marine divisions there and no operational LST's? Then how the heck did they do the landing in the summer of 2000? There are a lot of ships that obviously have to be there but no mention of them - otherwise the Marines wouldnt have been able to make an opposed landing with the one ship they mention.
But since Frank Frey forgot to detail both the Tudeh and the French Fleet that is there (he did correct the Tudeh in Kings Ransom at least) I just choose to add the proper number of ships there to support the reduced Marine divisions that are left for an opposed landing.
