CHS Suggestion: Classes that cannot bombard but that have the capability....

Post by Tanaka »

In the game some classes of ships cannot bombard when in real life they could such as APD's, CS's, etc.... They all have the guns to do it.

Can these classes be fixed so that they can??? For example making all APD's into DD's while still leaving there same stats??? CS's into CA's while still keeping there stats, etc... In otherwords just changing there class name which is what is preventing them from doing all of the things they were capable of....

Not sure of the trade offs. Each type of ship has certain inherent abilities. Changing to one type to gain one ability means the loss of some other ability. APDs have better troop carrying ability than DDs, etc.

This is especially true if the AI is playing one side – it will tend to use a ship more on it’s type than it’s specifications.
