Hi, playing vs AI as allies, scen 7, version 1108r9. Date is 8/7-44 and since the last turn ALL my carriers (CVs, CVLs and CVEs) parked (disbanded) at Guam vanished! All other ships are still there as far as I can see. They (the carriers) show up in the global ship list ("S" command) as being disbanded at Guam, but not in the Guam port ship list, and neither can I form a CV TF at the port. Tried to reload, restart and run a new turn but no luck so far. Any suggestions?

Cheers,
Mattias

You have too many ships there. I think the limit is 1000 for the display. Put a bunch of ships into TFs and your CVs should show up.

Well, doing a bit of a test run to get into the late game and try out a couple of things. Not really caring about any sort of historic accuracy here - basically just dumping everything into Guam as a staging base at the moment. And no, haven't tried the new map with stacking limits everywhere yet, but will do so in my next game, sounds like fun!

The magical number is not 1000 ships. It is 1300 ships.

1000 ships was the original number. Michaelm upped the number in the recent betas. See post #765 in this thread.
