No one is criticising, Grits. Please read the posts. Both T and I said we think Andy's scen is just fine. We are discussing the details NAVMAN's lack of sufficient lift. Which, btw, we got some suggestions for.
So, NAVMAN;
EC2 USATs are slugs. I wouldn’t bother with them – too slow (sorta like the difference between the Mayo Clinic and a Tourniquet). Instead of those, I might think about Haskell APAs. The stock OOB only has 43 Haskells. There was really about 100 of these (give or take). DaBabes has 74. I know it’s a cut-and-paste pita, but you get 30 more Haskells, and that ain’t bad.
Easy stuff:
If it hasn’t already been done, kill the withdraw dates and bring back Aquitania, and the Queens, West Point, Wakefield, Mt Vernon, Hermitage, Monticello.
Bit harder stuff:
Perhaps add 6 more Coolidge/Matson types, representing Ile de France, and a bunch of Dutch ‘Something’dams; and add 6-8 Grace types or maybe half and half Grace and Canada Pacific types, representing the mid-size Atlantic passenger humpers.
That should do the deed. If you do 2 and 3, you probably won’t have to mess with the Haskells, but they might come in handy for the Kyushu assault, so think hard before shining them out.
Ciao. J
btw, we do 'same speed' TFs of Haskells and regular VC2s to hump 'hard load' units, and save the passenger stuff for the 'troop heavy' units. There's some very nice big-fast C3s coming on line that are very good for arty and tank units. And don't forget them 27 Admiral/General C4s. [;)]
