Questions on adding new ship models to campaign

[Castout]

When I add new ship models to the rosters will they be automatically generated during campaign like as part of convoy?

Thx

Yes and no

a Specific ship ie USS Indianapolis

wont appear in the campaign as such

except as a "Generic american cruiser"

meaning it may spawn but it likely wont
be too often.

other wise to put them into an existing
campaign layer is not that hard though
using mission editor

Depends on the ships as MM said
And on the mod
Merchants\Tankers\Liners\Patrol craft\Coastal ships and destroyers are no problem for most nations

Carriers for the UK and US only and Battleships\light cruisers for the UK only will show too

ATM there are no generic heavy cruisers entries for anyone in GWX\NYGM\Stock - not sure about WAC

So all I have to do to make a new model to appear often in campaign or to appear often as part of convoy in campaign is to give a generic name to it instead of giving specific unit names to that particular model class? but this basically means any new model added to the roster is already and will be generated in the campaign automatically no matter how small the chance of encountering them because let's say they are just given 4 specific units in their Rosters file?


I guess that explains I never encounter any Battleships in campaign. All these years and not a single Battleships ever encountered.
