Wow. Man that looks good.

Thank you.

Soo. Any one up to do a Iowa class and Yamato? I'll wait the two weeks.

Ok. Works for me.

Hey Colmack. You got a side shot of that bad boy?

Can some one kindly tell how you add aircraft carrier stations to a map and terrain. Thank you.

I see your point.

Yea. I request it too.

You know. I take that back. As you said, "Only a complete and utter mororn would put his CVBG to the west in the Solomons Sea." I'm sure the Japanese Naval high command thought the same thing. Yet Halsey ordered TF-50.3 centered around USS Essex, USS Bunker Hill and USS Independence into the Solomon Sea to strike at Rabaul on November 11th, 1943. As Sun Tzu said, "Speed is the essence of war. Take advantage of the enemy's unpreparedness; travel by unexpected routes and strike him where he has taken no precautions." Genies. Now that whole Taffy 3 thing and the two typhoons. Yea...

Ummm. Well. I invite you to read about the carrier raids against Rabaul, November 5th and 11th of 1943. Get a pillow first and put it on the floor so you lower jaw has something soft to land on. He risked five carriers(including two Essex class)to secure the beach heads at Bougainville. I agree it was stupid considering he had more than enough land based aircraft in the Solomoms to stop any IJN sea attack. Ballsy but stupid too.

Thank you guys. So to make sure I'm tracking this right. Say I want to add carrier stations to the Solomon's terrain. I add NavalMap=TRUE in the INI. Got that. Then I would have to make a Solomons _water.bmp with the carrier station painted on? I know it's a small terrain but I want IJN carriers who's aircraft will fly from them for a Battle of the Eastern Solomons campaign I'm working on.

So. I was wondering if any one might want to take a shot at a camo skin for the YAP Essex CV.

High Hatters again. Green hub.

VF-1 High Hatters.

If you know how to do the editing, you can use the Rising Sun ships in SF2. A lot of folks to include myself do.

F6F-3 from VF-27

I did do a bit of checking and I did find a couple of pix where there is no strip but the vast majority do show the strip. In the end I used this site for paint and decal placement for med to late 43. http://www.markstyling.com/F6F.04. Also. There is a squadron where their stipe dose go up.

My attempt at VF-5 Hellcat.

Some things I have been doing.

How about a Ki-84. I know it's at DAT but I don't have access.

Yea. I grabbed it.

Do you mean the A-Team site? I have that one and the one in the screen shot looks way to detailed.

Is this Forrestal version over at Yankee Air Pirates or did you mod it? Will it be available for down load soon? Look very nice by the way. Oh. Never mind. Were did you find the screen shot?

Has any one consider doing this for PTO installs?

Ooops.
