ORIGINAL: Chickenboy Well, if you believe that to be the case, then clearly he's got more than 5 CVs in the neighborhood. What does your special super-duper mouseover Allied SigInt tell you about local TF constructions? I've been getting good sightings of the KB from patrol planes operating from nearby Noumea. Mouseover for this turn shows two big TFs: 1. 3 CV, 5 CVL with 111 F, 212 B, 36 A. 2. 4 CV, 2 CVL with 120 F, 89 B, 15 A. Total report 7 CV, 7 CVL, 331 F, 301 B, 51 P. Nearly 700 aircraft would be roughly equivalent to 10 fleet carriers. I know John doesn't have that many yet - probably the six big carriers plus Hiyo plus Junyo plus miscellaneous CVL? Or do you think I'm off? (Please don't chime in if you're reading John's AAR, or reading it recently enough to be up to date on what he might have.) I haven't opened up RA to look at the IJN OOB, but from those that have done so, I'm lead to believe that 1942 does not hold that many new CV/CVLs beyond vanilla. Question: Do some of the CVEs come back as CVLs in RA? Because that's (7) too many CVLs for 'vanilla' 1942 OOB.
