Only options now for anything larger than CVEs and DDs are those that were planned but canceled (some Unryuu-class CVs and others) Well, there's a few things left: The old Izumo armoured-cruisers, the Jingei sub tenders, heavy cruiser Ibuki, several large minelayers (eg. Tsugaru), armed merchant cruisers (eg.Noshiro Maru) and a friend for Akashi, the ex-battleship turned repair ship Asahi. Then sure more destroyers, and the Taiyo and Shimane Maru class escort carriers plus tons more loli escorts. ...not really.

The Izumo cruisers were the old WWI-era cruisers that I mentioned. Ibuki falls into the ralm of the cancled ships, and there were several of those.

Like I said, outside of the handful of the Taiyou-sized CVEs remaining, pretty much everything else is a Destroyer or smaller (read: Submarine or DE).

I don't know if they will include minelayers or merchant ships, or how they could even be implemented such that they are worthwhile to have. I mean, Akitsu Maru, Hayasui and Kamoi are useful in their roles as auxilery ships as they bring something to the table. Not sure what use some of these other Auxeleries would have...
