@Fearpils

Technically yes, although had “Amagi” in the game already xD As also they technically can put paper ships like Wargaming loves to do with your games xD (e.g Myougi or Kii).

But due to the proposal of the game, I doubt about this possibility.

@anon

Well, if you refer to the number about total ships of IJN, yeah, this can be wrong; I used the Wikipedia as a source after all. But many site I researched so on, shows almost the same numbers

Hull classification is a complicated subject after all to be honest, it has source out there that considers Kongou-Class Battlecruisers (CC) and not battleship (BB) even after the remodeling and even in the period they served in WW2. (For me personally, HMS Hood is a BB, not a CC!!!)

Not to mention the confusion to classify a ships as frigates, corvettes or destroyer.

Also because each Navy had their own Hull Classification this ends up generating some differences between sources and researchers.

Thank God here in Kancolle they use the USN Hull Classification (the standard of Royal Navy or even the IJN are horrible !!)

But, if you refer  about the number in the game… not, are 10 CV and 23 CL (maybe you added CLT to CL,  I was already counting Kiso, Ooi and Kitakami in the count and remember CLT is a non-existent Hull classification in USN, then for researchers of this subject, CLT are CL xD

About Akitsu Maru…

<p class="MsoNormal">I’m saying Hull classification is confusing thing!!! Anyway, the game said she is a LHA and not a CVE xD

<p class="MsoNormal">

<p class="MsoNormal">PS.: The problem to put so many DD are, nobody like to use them in the game! many just end up using DD and auxiliary ships because the game forces it with branching rules!!!

<p class="MsoNormal">PS.: Sorry for the long text,I like a lot of naval history xD
