Sorry, I've pinched off the fuse and unscrewed the Q-38 Space Modulator.

I would like ones made out of fire retardant foam that will not burn or sink. Mine have a bad tendancy to do both. [:'(]

Got it... I'll add that to my to-do list...

While you are at it, modify a US tank in SpWaW to have enough armor and a big enough main gun to stand up to a Tiget and maybe, just maybe, I will stop playing Germany.

That's already been done... It's called a Pershing. But I assume you'll want one on 12/7/41, for the cost of an M2 light tank?

Yes, and I want it with the speed of a Panther for the cost of a half track. Mass production should have reduced the cost. [:D]

Really, how much are you modding your scenario? Is it based on anything historical or just for fun?

Partly historical, but mostly for fun. Adding and removing a ton of ships, classes, aircraft, LCU's, devices. I've gotten so far into it, I've lost track of all the changes I've made. I conveniently "forgot" to document from the beginning...

if this is what you want. why give them more bombers than fighters?
I know a good offense is a good defense but its most likely too late by late 44
maybe 12 fighters 6 bombers would be better, more like there US counter parts have.

[quote]ORIGINAL: irrelevant

more light carriers with smaller air groups, suitable for convoy escorting and defensive operations

Because they're mainly meant to be fighting submarines. Maybe I'll make it 8 to 12. An additional problem is that Japan might not be able to produce enough aircraft for them...

May we copy them and try them in a mini-mod?

Everything I post (WitP-wise, at least) becomes public domain when I click "OK". So go ahead.

Thank you. It may be a good introduction to the editor.[:)]

Good luck. Don't be afraid of the editor even though it looks very foreboding. It can be wrestled into obedience.

Personally, I think I'd rather bomb it into submission.

Here's my first rough draft for the Type 20-20, or Kobe Maru class, as I've named her. As for air group composition, I'm thinking Zeros and Kates at a 1-2 ratio.

Hi Terminus, will carriers function properly that far down the order in the ships database? I know they really start to act screwy when you get them past the destroyers.

I am still going to try it.[:)]

The Kobe Maru isn't past the destroyers. It's close, but... They should work, but I haven't strictly speaking tested them.

Plus, slot#41 is used in the stock game for the Ibuki class CVL, so it should work. I've run two tests, however, and the first one (in slot#41) did act a bid odd. The second one (moved to slot#35) seemed to work better.

Two tests are hardly statistically significant, but somehow I'm finding it hard to gather up the energy to run 20 or 30 at the moment...[8|]

I've been meddling with the Japanese carriers in my mod, removing several, am now considering what they should be replaced with, and would like to hear people's opinions.

A bunch of these + Akizuki DDs.

That's not a carrier, Gary...[8|][:'(]
