I once signed up for a Midway Scenario just to run a MARPAT Squadron of SBDs. I have a blast, and was REALLY into it. But I was the only one in my unit. Everyone else just squeaked and begged to get a bombing run. So I know that Maritime Patrol isn't a very easy sell. It would require changes to the game in order to make it rewarding, and I really don't know that the interest is there to drive the change. I've always held out that if Combat Tour truly intends to bring in a different type of player, maybe Patrol and Recon Missions will be added, but until then I'm stuck.
but since this is the
wishlist then how about:

and a Japanese Cruiser to launch it from
