new ships would be nice. if there are mines then obviously we need mine layers/sweepers. different types of battleships and cruisers can be handled under the cruiser menu. it would just be a cruiser of same mp and production time but 2 more ic and 3 more at and 1 more def for example

Making your own Ships !

Like:

2 Extra IC for one extra defense; and if tech **** is invented; then the first 2 defense are only 1 IC

Ect ...

(unless they already have it planned which we dont know :wacko: )

changing the game to let us make our own ships would kick the games launch back at least 3-4 weeks. i would think making a special screen would take a little while but then you have the ai to deal with. either you make the ai capable of using the new system(take much o time) or keep it simply for the ai and put another part of the game so humans have a BIG advantage. using 3 custom destroyers to take down 4 ai battleships.

I don't think that will happen; Just let the AI handle the normal system.

And those 3 Destroyers would majbe cost 50 IC more for them to do that

While 1.06 did a lot to improve naval warfare, I certaintly do want to see an overhaul to the system.

I think a great deal could be accomplished quite simply:

1) expand the brigade system to capital ships, so we could attach things like catapult-launched seaplanes (better search ratings), and tankers (greater range), etc.

2) give ships specific orders (sounds like this is being done) so the Bismarck can go convoy-hutning without automatically engaging every enemy surface ship in sight

3) implement Math Guy's simple system of search modifiers so that the real cat-and-mouse of the Atlantic and Pacific can come to life.

Beyond this, I don't see any crying need for changes, except that ships engaging unarmed convoys should only lose org, not strength as well - but this has been brought up at length elsewhere.

Oh, and of course the always-ongoing AI improvements.
