Default Re: RetLT Scenario issues

You are going to find a lot of that. The carriers were given the capacity to carry a full section simply because in reality, two carriers could usually carry a full section but I try to avoid things like Carriers(2) that use one Icon. Everyone accepted that until a few years ago when it was repeatedly pointed out one carrier could not carry 12 men so the "simplest" solution was to change the carrier to a HT that could carry 12. The game picks up the HT photo but scenarios allow custom photos AND NAMES to be added so the old scenarios happily show the "new" HT Icon but use the original name and in many cases, photo

Hindsight suggests perhaps simply renaming them carriers(2) would have, in the long run, saved a lot of aggravation if for no other reason than in scenarios pre 1942 ( like 181 and this one), HT's should not even be available.

In cases like this I may simply change the Icon back to being a carrier and change the name to just "Carrier" and leave it at that. Chances are you may see a lot of that in this scenario series
