Light aircraft carriers

[unfoundlime]

How do the Light Aircraft Carriers stack up in the pecking order of naval combat so far? I noticed the techs for Light Aircraft Carriers didn't have any CAG associated with the research, does that mean it shares the CAG's used on typical carriers? Or do they come with built-in CAG's? From looking at their stats, it seems like they need no brigade, does that mean they see no benifit from air doctrines?

No they have no brigade, the plane's attack values are represented in the stats of the carrier, so to speak.

What is the suggested use for light carriers?

 

[Cpack]

Sub detection and sub attack are nearly as good as destroyers, but on a better range

They are good convoy raiders by the way!

 

[Spruce]

they hold of subs - and kill them - and they hold of aircraft (nav bombers).

So adding them to TP's would be a good choice. Less chance for loosing your army when it sinks to the bottom of the sea.

LCVs are best used as an anti air/anti sub escorts for BB fleets...Especially since their firing distance is around 36, meaning that in combats BBs can actually close in and use their big guns
