WHy not create a second 155 gun specifically for the FA regiments? I.e., have 2 types of 155s, basically the same gun, but have the arty version in the FA TO&Es, and the CD version in the CD units... Admittedly, Im not up on all this, so I don't know which 155s are being discussed per se, but How about have the 155mm Field Gun for the FA units. This can represent the 155mm Gun M1 "Long Toms", or the 155mm Gun M1918A1s used in the PI in 1941. These guns are not classed as naval guns. Then, for the CD Units, have the 155mm F. Gun. This can represent the 155mm Gum M1918A1, or the 155mm Gun M3 (modernized M1918A1s, which are themselves the French GPFs). These guns are classed as naval guns. This way, CDs can be ship killers, and the FAs can't be. I may be completely wrong about this, Im afraid I don't have time to read 5 pages of arguing, but to me this seems like a good solution. After all, its kind of what I am doing in WPO, and it seems to work well.
