wicked drool!! I'm dying to try this baby out!! Fantastic work HTC <S>

 Questions?  Ok, ok , ok. Will there be a water line effect or bow wave/wake graphics?  Will the PT boat "bank" in a turns? How may gunners? do you have to come to a stop to toss the beast into reverse?

 (in other words: possible fatal aniticipation is setting in and details on the PT boat and it's operation are in dire need here!!    )

My only Question is,,

Will it have the two differant sounds it's gonna need.

Muffled, (limited to around 30 knts)
and
Unmuffled, (can you say 45knts???)

with a resultant 10 ft high rooster tail and wake????
complete with working cavitation (? dunno if thats the term I'm looking for here.) plates???

Will the big boys, (destroyers, CV's and the Cruisers actually throw FLAK bursts in the air (ala all the painted scenes of midway etc?)

Will we get the "outside" view as we're motoring to our gloriously hideous deaths making that suicide run at the DD's to clear a path for the rest of the squadron to nail the Cruisers and the CV???????

Inquiring minds want to know....

Anyone else thinking that attacking those things would be like 20x harder than the Ostwind...?

And how in hell is anyone going to attack the larger ships, if their full AAA capabilities are modelled???

Hopefully, it will be impossible for any one plane to succefully attack the capital ships. This as it should be, will hopefully require an organized assult rather than scattered buffs and the occasional JaBo randomly flying from various fields with no real coordination.

This is where that map planner will really get some use. (Hopefully)

AAA overall on this game is absurd. 1 AC _can_ (ive never succeeded due to upping enemies) kill all acks on LARGE field, which i would thik to be impossible in RL conditions.

AAA needs dispersion on bullets and dispersion on aiming. Then they´d cover a LOT more airspace when shooting, than they are now. Multiple AAA:s in RL are designed to shoot so much metal in the air, that you surely get hit, if you go too deep in their effective shooting range.
