But then, a ground crew couldn't re-arm, re-fuel and re-bomb a B-29 in 30 seconds, could they? Nor could they restring the ammo for a P-47-D-40 with 8x50 cals, with 427 rounds each? Methinks that if this thing were implemented for whatever reason, they would cut down (significantly) on the reload time.

well, what about frame rates? if you fire all of those rockets at once, your FPS is going to get rammed in the butt.
i'd still give this a +1 anyways...

So you're assuming a crew of 5-6 for a combat ship?


And +1 either way, even if you only get 1000 rockets and no resupps or reloads.


Of course there would have to be some sort of way to aim them relativly accuratly. Perhaps let you get the range and bearing to town with a land gun type system, but make you aim it yourself (adjust the aim by stearing the ship, and adjust range using the c and v keys like on a tank. Maybe some sort of tool to see the range based on the angle of the rocket launch frames).

I suppose however i like many people are looking for simulation over game. My wish has a downfall and i have to accept it. People don't wanna wait 9 hours and 9 hours based on my research is the minimum time. 9-19 hours
 

I doubt the pilots in the game would wait an hour or two to have there planes re-loaded and gassed up either. What is it 20sec's?

Maybe you could drive it around avoiding the SB and others things for 3-4 mins before it reloaded.

No, but this thing has more range than a PT too. Oh hell, another though. You could completly LEVEL the strats on some maps. No 8"ers, no aircraft, just a group of 20 LST(R)'s salvoing the strat facilities.

Yes, but they're not going to show radar either. Draw a 4 mile semicircle around the base and they could be anywhere in there.

yes, but CV's don't. 8k off the shore isn't an uncommon distance for CV's to park.

My idea was that this would be a ship that would be independentlyly used. all guns fire at the pilots command just like a pt boat. therefore would make a flash like a pt boat.
