Japanese Fleet
Well, as promised, here are the concepts for his Japanese Fleet, based
on his knowledge of WW2 Japanese ships, and on the minis itself.
According to it, Japanese ships were a bit bigger than their US
counterparts. Ship under the BB category were relatively defenceless.
They liked to use the long spear(?) torpedoes, and battleships had
large batteries, and strong air defence.
IMPORTANT: These designs are no way official, and not intended to
challenge any copyrights or rights Ground Zero Games hold. They are
stricktly for gaming and game-theory purposes. (Hope thats
sufficiant).
Designs are still under consideration and refinment, and are based on
the Full Thrust Fleet Book 1 design system and were tested under
Vector System.
