Make every ship burn when hit, not just the CV.

  Put torps on the DEs, and let them reload 30 minutes after being fired.

Agree, smoke would be good. Don't need the fire animation.

Agree, Destroyers were commonly equipped with torpedo's.

Would also love to be able to spawn to a Destroyers command deck. Take control of it. Choose to steam ahead for anti pt/Aircraft screen, lay smoke, fire torps at enemy TG, etc.

Problem with the fire on CV's is people can see the FIRE from 15 miles out better than the smoke coming off it.

Make the smoke larger, and capable of reaching higher into the air.
Take the fire, and make it smaller.


Easy fix, change fire size.
Make CV smoke "larger/thicker" have a longer run time so it keep rising.

Thats because fuel laiden aircraft and lines were exposed when the CV's were struck


I actually have some B/W photos of the USS Franklin and she was under air attack. One still shows the debris flying just moments after being hit by a bomb

I like the idea of the other ships burning, and the torps were the mainstay of the destroyer's armament.  The 5 inch guns were of little effect when used agaist larger ships.

Reload Torpedo's??? As far as I know, US destroyers had no reload ability...
Fletcher class, had 8 tubes only...

The only DD's that did, were the Japanese Fubuki class DD's.. I think some of their later "Kazi" classes did as well.... Not sure tho...
