I'm curious about carriers at war, but haven't played it. I have, however, some experience with War in the Pacific. It has an expansion due shortly (a couple months??) which will overhaul the map, the AI, and some minor tweaking. It is, first and foremost, a logistics simulator. Turns are one day, and the scale is air squadrons, individual ships, and infantry battalions, regiments, and divisions. Both sides issue orders and the next day is then resolved. You'll spend most of your time moving supplies, oil, air squadrons and troops. The big battles are pretty sparse, but enjoyable, and attrition happens daily. If you play the whole war (including Pearl Harbor, which resolves differently every time) the amount of stuff you need to take care of can be overwhelming, but when you do, and you come out victorious, there is a great deal of pride. If you have more specific questions, let me know.
