HTC,

could you add a small convoy of undefended liberty ships that could be hunted by ptboats?

ships that travel at slow speed are desperately needed and fighting againts deathstar ai ack is no fun

It's pretty dam hard to drop Torps against the CV groups too. How bout some Shipping convoys? Type VIICTypeVIICTypeVIIC
There must also be a flyable computer available for Nefarious to do FSO. So he doesn't keep talking about it for eight and a half hours on Friday night!

Orphanages. We need orphanages. Convents will do in a pinch, or maybe hospitals...

I think a slow-moving oiler or two behind the carrier groups would be interesting...

or just change to the angle ack can shot down to

change it so you can't train guns down lower than 30 degrees or have the AI guns so they can't rotate down past 40/45 dgrees while the player controlled guns can

it'd require the ppl to protect their fleets instead of letting the computer handle it for them
