Japanese Carriers
« on: June 16, 2010, 03:38:19 PM »
  I'd like to see Japanese CVs included in the game. Perhaps give them different traits such as slower repair times or less durable. Make their escorts look like IJN vessels as well.

I like, would these be just mixed in randomly with maps? Ie you don't know which Carrier you are going to get, depending on the port?

I'd love to see different carrier fleets in the game, the Japanese defiantly need one and quickly so we can get it in for the next scenario.  :)

But i can already hear it now, "You guys have the better carrier group"  Would have to balanced so each side gets the same number of each carrier group.

I'd prefer the British carriers with armored decks

Japanese fleet carriers were just as tough as American fleet carriers.  Pocket carriers I don't know about, but US pocket carriers didn't get hit much.

A Japanese carrier group with less effective AA could be useful in the early war arena where you have '40-41 planes trying to contend with '45-style ack.

I wonder if it could be implemented to only be able to up country specific planes for special events and ava?

If so, +1

if not, I really don't see the need
Amazing you could actually recruit that much suck into one squad.

Would definitely be an issue in the MA's, but I'm sure scenario's, AVA, etc etc would get a nice use out of them. A Shokaku class CV would be neat though IMO.
