> CONCEPT & TEST MISSION <

I have created an initial concept mission that attempts to test player controlled Aircraft Carriers in a Multiplayer Scenario. It is still in early development, I intend to add more features with each mission created, to begin with I have started designing the missions around the first Carrier vs Carrier Battle in history… The Battle of the Coral Sea. The 1st of these is an Asymmetrical Scenario that focuses on Task Force 17.

So you can’t launch planes by yourself as carrier?

And no carriers in enemy team?

Not yet, I only started work on this concept a few days ago. I Intend to expand the missions, mechanics and overall scope, I but I require some time to figure all of this out.

I released this mission like it is currently in order to allow people to test the concept for themselves as I work on developing a full version.
