I am going to suggest that people give it a try before offering sweeping design/balance opinions.

I
disagree
with
this.
Playing
ship
factory
in
the
past
has
always
felt
thoroughly
unfun
to
me.
Hover
and
amph
might
want
some
changes,
but
they
have
to
be
carefully
considered
in
the
light
of
ground
battles
as
well.

IMO.

They could be remodelled if that's the problem. Scallop does not use its shotgun while it is at sea. I have so far found it to be a more interesting unit than Typhoon.

At this point [i]nothing[/i] has skirmish/arty that can hit subs. The idea is to make ships good enough against sub/amph that the surface battle is more important than the underwater one. Hovercraft may need more help against subs in the future but I am yet to settle on a reasonable thing to do to Claymore.

Making sonar more like radar is a possible direction which sea design could take, and not one which I have discarded; if this does not work out I will revisit it. For now I've gone in the direction of making sonar even less like radar.
