Well Ghosth I think changing the view of the five inch gunners position would give you that slight bit of added reality. #1 they didn't have such an unobstructed view with zoom magnification etc. #2 they were inside the turret & had to rely on reports from observers for where to look (there was no god mode) I think the 20mm's & quad 40mm's are not as deadly as they really were & the five inchers are more deadly than they really were. But it doesn't equal out, anything low level is dead meat coming into one of these cv groups in AH & at very high alts, untouchable except for the occasional hit here & there.
In short, remove the extreme zoom & god mode, place the gunner inside the turret & I believe you'll slip more torpedo planes through.
