According to HiTech himself during the convention recording, bombs splashing in the water DO NOT explode to cause damage.

ive seen it happen many many times from tower of CVs while defending.

also as armored as the 5" guns are,  i would think, they should require amore near direct hit with a bomb to disable then just like it is now.
a bomb anywhere near the tower usually kills 1 or both 5"s.


it would be great if as CV takes damage things stop working.

1st hits kills guns, and dar if bomb hits it.  when CV is hit with
half the lbs to sink, flight Ops stops, but GV  Ops still open.
Sink CV and cruiser, all Ops closed. Or put in Troops ships,
so that defenders can stop the ded CV, LVT rush that happens.

Id like to see, if someone flies over a enemy CV, it is reported on the map for say 15 to 30 min as last position know marker.  would simulate a recon plane or other craft reporting it to HQ.  make rang say 5 miles, to simulate having to make positive ID.  after 30 mins the marker goes away unless someone else flies over it again, or its engaged in battle with another fleet.

Love the idea of an escort carrier with limited plane set :aok

More escorts would also be nice

Add at least 1 Battleship with 16 inch guns
:O

another Cruiser :aok

Even if they could make only a portion of the CV's for each side a "reinforced" battle group( Battleship, extra Cruiser and escorts) would be a excellent addition to the game.

This would make taking out these types of battlegroups a priority along with the port they spawn from......

great ideas in this thread!!!!!!
