nice.I had trouble with the landing craft, getting them to show up properly.How many did you have? what did you di for spacing and column? I have also done Iwo and Peleliu but thinking after I play a patrol and continue tweaking I will try to make some changes, the kamikaze thing was just too "cool" in sense I was shocked they would do it, after a while it just seems intentional, like I said, they accomplished it twice, tried multiple times, a couple of the shots show an attempt, there were closer ones but its best I could do while conning my ship around as my gunners fired away.I had the sound way up during the air attacks, it was pretty awesome I have to admit. I have kamikazes hitting TF 59 and TF 57(the British Pacific Fleet off the Sakashimas and Formosa supporting ICEBERG) , will be interesting to see waves of Kamikazes hit the fleets.

If I recall I just built the groups instead of making a random group as the min spacing they still looked way spread out, maybe I did both, but I don't recall any problems either way. They can look wierd because they contain no men. Lurker has a few groups like this in the Solomons, but his are random built, can't remember the file, but one of those regarding the battle of GC.

Another thing that looks cool is to build big air groups and layer them, just spawn all the groups basically on top of each other, but use different heights so they layer up, looks cool
