I have a couple of LSV's in my Scenario 15 game. Now they are Logistics Support vessels. More sea worthy and better load than an LST. IS that what they are in WitP as well? Super LST's?

LSV stands for Landing Ship Vehicle as far as I know.

Have a look here:

As listed on the above attachment ......

Speed: 20 knots = Not too bad at all
Armament: 4 5"/38 DP, 4x2 40mm, 20 20mm Wow ... impressive for a merchant ship !
Complement: 33 officers, 448 enlisted
Capacity: 44 DUKWs, 800 troops Some serious landing capacity
