Ok, here are a few vessels capable of carrying FP's but starting the 155 scenario without any loaded. AV Kamoi AV Kinagawa Maru PG Ukishima Maru PG Hokoku Maru Those are not of the AK type I wrote earlier as I didnt stumble over them as last turn, but I'm sure I'll find them again if a comprehensive list is required. So the question for the above ships is the same, how do I get FP on those vessels without overloading them??? OK - in more detail. I meant that there are floatplane units for such vessels IN GENERAL. Not that there are always floatplanes assigned. There were not unlimited planes, and IJN assigned planes to certain vessels. I use official IJN lists of planes assigned in November 1941 and in July 1942 (because I have those official lists available). Some ships have no assigned aircraft. One ship is special - a peculiar flying boat tender can carry a Mavis - but never has any air group! What you can do is reassign aircraft between ships. This is pretty good simulation too - a real Admiral could do that - but could not cough up more plane units! Some ships have two units of 1 or 2 planes - so transfer one of them. I think Kamoi may be a mistake. If my memory is not too dim, I think she is converted back from a seaplane carrier, and no longer carries any. Anyway, she had no group. But if rated for one - she will operate one. Seaplanes are a mistake on cruisers mostly - so transfer these off them. Seaplanes make a cruiser likely to be damaged if attacked! If you want groups for ships, I can make them in a few seconds. Just tell me what you want them for (what scenario, etc).
