yes

error with trainworld?

Midway repair should be like 70k.

It is impossible to shoot your guns exactly straight...i think.
In the begining of a battle, you always have to turn your guns before shooting, and
if you turn them back, they're not exactly straight.

Also, about the Essex, it has the same broadside aa firepower as the pensacola,
which is an good aa ship.

Does trainworld have the wrong repair cost for midway, or is it like 7k? lol

if you are shooting directly in front, then you are either running from DB's, enemy BB's
or are the last ship. If you spot the DB's or TB's quick enough turn perpendicular to
them and open up with your AA guns. The essex is never really effective at downing
masses of planes with either 5/38's or 3/70'd unless you have godlike gunnners. The
ticonderoga gun spread is atrocious on the side opposite the ships island. Generally
going south in a tico solves this problem as the gun spread is tighter on the island side
of the ship.



As for midway, I have never driven one. Talk to ipie in game. He always seems to drive his.


EDIT: Run AA shells on the T slots, and maybe a 1 bind of HE.

Based on replies that Midway guns turn 180 degrees but only fire the guns on one
side, it seems that they act like t slots....wait, are they t slots?

I tried with my Essex, lol. Couldn't hit the planes and my APC shells went into my
ship, doing no damage

Go ahead.

Hmmm..if you had aa shells on the essex guns and a low angle, you could kill your
own planes as soon as they took off.

Yes. With Essex.

They turn 180 Degrees and only fire on the side they are mounted.

Just think for a minute, would you fire guns across the deck where your allies are taking
off and landing?
