Another USS Iowa question.

if your not happy with a 2 turret Iowa just have 2 Wisconsin's

I do think the best solution is just adding the turret through scenario editor also.
Really now D, you have me thinking also... could still make the spaceship Yamato... can we arm satellites? [:D] lol

[Dimitris]

Try [:)]

Haha.. I did. Unfortunately it seems no satellites can fulfill the launch/fire parameters for any weapons I can see. So you need to make a "laser cannon" or "energy matter cannon" lol.

I've never even looked at it, but what about that airborne laser? What are its parameters? Can you make a working SDI?

Well, that's not true. It has 600 troop capacity and 200 cargo capacity and larger aircraft capacity as well as carries aviation fuel and a smaller crew.

Well OK then... I give up. I did see that but thought at first it was an "adjustment" for the out of commission turret. Wrong dates though. Then I thought maybe it was just an unused capability that applied to all the Iowas across the board. Now I don't know. This configuration doesn't seem to fit any specific proposal I ever saw for a planned Iowa modification.

So hopefully one of the devs will eventually speak up and tell us...

Is this a mistake or is it intended to represent something specific? If so what?

Hi JD, that specific conversion never did take place granted, but was proposed, therefore as a "what if" platform it gives you a good indication of what could have been the the Command inviroment
