My current one will take at least a year more, I'll have time to learn!  ;)

If you visit the Matrix forums, there are about 50 active AARs, usually from both sides... They really trust each other. A 2 vs. 2 would be nice too.

If there's a decent British/Aussie Carrier, I'll take that. Otherwise, a torpedo bomber, please!

I'm sure Erkki said in the other thread that was the one with WW1 Biplanes...

What have I let myself in for?

On a good note - British carriers were far more sturdy than americans, the belt armor is 3 times as good as CV Wasp.
I heard it was because we used all metal decks and armor, wheras Americans utilised alot of wood levels. I don't know the validity of this, but I do know our carriers were thicker skinned.

*But mobility and offensive capability were the key in carrier warfare, not decent belt armor. It is also heavy and only carries about 15 planes.

Looks like you'll have to focus on conventional surface warfare then.
