Of course. I should have added "capital ships". I tried to google for a list of ships. There is a Wikipedia entry but it is incomplete (no Yorktown for example), and the other list I have seen are either broader or narrower in time ...

Which is not really a big problem, as the license for the beta, that you buy for a deduct of the full price, is also valid for the full game. I bought mine with version 0.623 for 12 Euro ...

<t> I seem to remember that there is some odd 'routine' that makes the Flagship of a TF more suceptible to minefields. That's why you get occasionally reports of 50+ mine hits on a single ship. In CV-TFs a CV will be the Flagship, so no wonder the CVs struck the mines.<br/>
