I agree completely…… If I don’t have to, I will not build an AC at least not for the first 3 rounds. But I will build one once The allies start building up steam in Europe around turn 4.
Japan Pearl Heavy… 4 tpt buy?

:-D Silly Axis, unguarded transports are for kids? :o
A 10 IPC fighter for 32 IPCs in tran…tasty :evil:
-
Or you could build Destroyer + 2 Transports having 3 or 4 Transports and a Destroyer in SZ 60 and not worry about it. :P
-
A destroyer has the cost of 1.5 transports, firepower of 3 and endurance of 1.
Then why not a carrier ? At the cost of 2 trans, can land the fighter meant for Wake for a firepower of 7… and decisively deterring a KJF. -
Because a destroyer is cheaper.
You cannot buy 2 transports and a carrier on Japan 1. That means trading in a transport to get a carrier, not a trade I want, or getting two transports (3 or 4 total available on Japan 2) and a destroyer thus not tying up your fleet on such non-sense as transport protection duty.
Not to mention, when I go after the American fleet with Japan, I always wish I had another destroyer. I never wish I had another transport. (Talking rounds 12+ when Japan goes after the Allied fleet to protect S. Germany)
