Yeah, and that is in addition to random TFs and convoys as well. There are only a few over 100 DDs available at the start of the war. The Kido Butai would have at least 4 desdivs for the 6 PH CVs, possibly 8. That's a third of the entire DD fleet right there. Similar screens for the BB divs.

Making a really good campaign will be daunting. Fun, but daunting. I'd want to have a DD for each real DD (might need to use some stand ins from similar classes), a CA for each CA, etc. Create the appropriate task forces that we know for a fact existed, and only play a little loose with ships that are not for sure in some known location.

There are TROMs for ALL of the DDs in the IJN at combined fleet. That means we know specific dats DDs were assigned to different desdivs, what their duty was, even convoy or ASW duty with a rough location.
