Shipyard Repair

[TheOx]

Ok, so if I put a ship (CV Saratoga) at Sydney in the shipyard (max cap 30k tons) and Saratoga displaces 36k tons, will the ship reapir at a reduced rate or not at all?

Not at all - it's too big.

CRAP! Is there anything I'm missing in SouthPac that can take a CV? Looks like Sydney is the biggest shipyard at 30k. Can't really repair flotation in anything but a shipyard, right?

Use ARs to repair minor flotation damage. You did move a support group of tenders etc forward to 'support' your operations, didn't you ?

Yes, they're at Canton at the moment. Can they repair 25 major flotation on a CV? Damn subs!

Gonna say no on ARs repairing Major Float damage. Pretty sure any large amounts of Major Damage needs a Repair Yard or a specialized unit like an ARD for Major Hull Damage only.

Set sail for Pearl and bring down one of the other ones.

Yep, Hornet on the way. Zeroes tore up Lex's groups pretty badly. Got 46 a/c on the carrier now. Might have to send her back up too.

On a sideline, I never understood why AFB's can't have the option of expanding dry-docks ... but just shows the importance of ARD's
