More naval traffic on waters
« on: January 08, 2011, 02:51:29 PM »
It would be nice if we could have more Naval/merchant traffic on the waters of ACES high.  We have thousands of miles of water in Aces and the only Naval traffic is the one tug boat w/ the barges in tow.  It would be nice if the waters had fishing trawlers and some type of merchant traffic.  It would be cool if they flew a flag of the country they belong to, similar to the flags now flown at the towns.  Some could even have AAA guns like the train does.  Maybe some sanpans?  It just a suggestion.

... missions were to be met by the commitment of alerted swarms of fighters, composed of Me 109's and Fw 190's, that were strategically based to protect industrial installations. The inferior capabilities of these fighters against the Mosquitoes made this a hopeless and uneconomical effort. 1.JD KTB

I would have to agree. Some kind of change in the CV groups might be nice as well. I would like to see each country have one "Heavy CV" group that has a double cruiser. Or if we could get a battleship added, then each country could have a task group with a battleship and an escort carrier.

For the special events we could really use the addition of tanker and transport ships. Give the CM the ability to select the number of tankers or transport ships that are required and use them in place of the CV in a task group.

I think they would die to quickly. Maybe indestructable? with 1 or 2 guns.

Also, I would like it if they would allow the cruiser and destroyers to detach and do some Arleigh Burke raids. Or not, but I do like the idea of having a transport convoy with destroyer and cruiser escort. I know, getting complicated and detracts from the pure fighter mission but...

could have merchant fleets, 6-7 merchant ships being escorted by destroyers. only problem is where are they coming from? and where would they be going too?

I just realized what I had typed. Arm them like the supply trains were. :D

I would love to scout out for lone merchants and freighter convoy's to hit.  I would probably be in the Mossy 6 quite a bit for this task, if not a Val or SBD. :x
