I can't find any Carriers

I've raided most major Japanese ports, patroled everywhere, but I just can't seem to find one. I almost did the other day, but I got unlucky and just missed her. I was attacked by her aircraft and my TC was choppy. Where can I find them?

Yes, but where are the task forces with carriers in them?

I don't know if there's a definate answer to this....I've been waiting for the 1.3 patch to pick up the game again, but from what I remember, task forces that I've run into usually have at least a cruiser in them. I'm not sure where a guaranteed aircraft carrier contact would be found, but I can tell you for sure that they'll be travelling in a task force. Prosecute every feasible task force contact you get, and you'll come upon one.

Does anyone know if the map at the bottom of this link shows where all jap task forces goes?

I think it's just luck of the draw. I would think if you found them all the time then the joy of sinking one wouldn't be as great.

I think it's Kobe harbour I've been into about 5 times, but there's always been at least one, even in mid 1942. I'll take a look at the in-game map and figure out exactly which harbour hits the jackpot.
