Got all the Japanese done and created. Looks GOOD!
Tomorrow will see me create the new Allied ship classes and then add the new wessels. Once those are done and placed, we'll then shift over to creating a CRAPLOAD of air groups for all the new ships.
Should have that done tomorrow night.
Michael and I talked tonight and came up with some additional stuff that needs to be done/added:
1. A recon version of the Kate that upgrades to the recon variant of Judy.
2. Some ground work with Allied units.
3. Adding the Aussie DDs, an AS, and 2 SS.
4. Chatted about those Japanese AMC that start WAY down SW on Dec 7th.
Are there other items we've discussed that I have forgotten?
Hi John, What about a few DD's for the NZ CLV? Also I sent an email last night with a rough art for a NZ Buffalo. Did you get it? And is it OK to use? We had a strong T-Storm go thru that messed up my modem. Seems OK today. I can try to refine it some more if ness. Also if its OK I can make one for the Aussies. Sorties for the Allied CLV's need to go to 60 or available sorties up to 90. As per the Pic I sent you.....

Earlier in the thread I suggested some Aussie DD's get added per Don Bowen, a couple of those could be moved to NZ or more than likely shared.

We'll use four of the DDs that were supposed to be transferred over to Australia. Should be enough to provide SOME screening.
Would make sense that the Aussies and NZ would work with them together.

Juan performed a small miracle and found the boneheaded mistake I had made on the Japanese CAVs. THANKS SIR!
Will fix in a few minutes. Haven't heard of any other issues at this point.

Hi Stan. Yes, there will be 'some' airplane data that's tweaked, but one needs to look at the extent of the tweak and how it relates to the other airplanes in the database. And look seriously at Alt, Climb, Speed, Mvr Bands. Yesterday's 'gotta have' may not work with today's airframes, but why, in the world, should someone be forced into yesterday's nonsense just because it is WiTP Stock Canon? There's Gold in them 'thar hills.
That's good to hear. Making big cannons remotely useful just didn't seem a high priority to me, judging by the fact, that everyone caught on how terrible they are years ago (certainly past the release of Downfall, which allowed everyone to test all Japanese fighter-bombers to their hearts' content and notice that Ki-45 KAIa is still the most effective even against 4E bombers - and by a very large margin - because its 20mm cannon and machine guns at least can hit them), but there was no hints change so far.

@John,
Please check G.6 classes 1747 and 1748. They have the same month and year, and 1747 upgrades to 1748. Is that as designed?
Same thing with Amagi classes 1742 and 1743.
The rest of the classes CL and bigger seem to be OK.
EDIT: The Mutsuki-class APDs cannot be converted to Es late in the war. I guess that is WAD?

Also...
Regarding planes, shouldn't the B5N2-C be a type-5 recon, instead of a type-12 torpedo bomber?
Please forgive me for not checking the database before, but I have had a VERY busy last three weeks.
