Hey guys, two completely random naval combat ideas: Sherman DD amphibious tanks and Catalina flying boats!

(These are new units)

DD Sherman Tank
Cost: 6 IPCs
Move: 2 (1 when on water)
Attack: 3
Defense: 2
Ability: Able to move across sea zones; may not blitz

PBY Catalina Flying Boat
Cost: 18 IPCs
Move: 7 (8 with Long-Range)
Attack: 4
Defense: 1
Ability: No SBR; able to attack ships?

*What do you think? Swimming tanks can be able to help D-Day. Fact: They were used in the actual D-Day landings, however a lot of them sank at Omaha (27 of 32)

Ok, thanks

@Imperious:

Bomber               15 IPC 4/1 no selective, SBR, can’t attack ships

I think all aircraft should be able to attack ships. Depends on what bomber you’re talking about, though. If it’s ground attack/dive bomber or torpedo bomber it should be able to, but for long-range I don’t know. Maybe dividing bombers into four subcategories–four independent units(torpedo bomber, long-range bomber, attack bomber, and jet bomber if you want to add it)?

Just a suggestion. During the Second World War jet bombers didn’t exist. The first operational jet fighter, the Messerschmitt Me 262, was produced near the end of the war. They only developed jet bombers at the post-war period.

Hey Guerrilla Guy and Imperious Leader,

I registered at this website, like you told me to. Can anyone brief me on what’s happening? I understand this is the tech section.

Peace
