Pros
1. High Firepower (2nd highest amongst all CV-class) 2. Night Carrier (Only requires 1 Night Aircraft to do Night Bombing, and can do Night Cut-in if using 3 required Aircrafts (Ex. Swordfish, TBM-D3, F6F-3N and F6F-5N) 3. Higher Evasion than her CVB form. Cons: 1. Unbalanced Aircraft Slot Distribution. 4th slot not appropriate to put a Bomber. 2. -3 Lower Armor than her CVB Form 3. Cannot Attack while Medium Damage as she is not a CVB. (Even during Night Battle)

Pros
1. CVB. Able to attack while Medium Damaged (Follows through Night Battle if equipped with NOAP and Night Aircrafts.) 2. Very Balanced Aircraft Slot distribution. All-Bomber Setup possible. 3. Higher Armor Cons: 1. -10 Firepower compared to her CV(N) form (However not a problem if equipped with multiple Bombers) 2. Requires Night Aircrafts/Night Battle Operation Aviation Personnel + Skilled Deck Hands to participate during Night Battle. 3. -4 Lower Evasion compared to her CV(N) form.

On a side note, through testing, it has been confirmed that the following matters for CV(L)s if used for "Night Carrier" purposes via Night Operation Aviation Personnel and Night Aircrafts 1. Aircraft Capacity matters (where the Night Aircrafts are equipped on) 2. Firepower matters 3. Type of Night Aircraft Used matters (Ex. TBM-D3, Swordfish boosts up Night Bombing and the Cut-in Damage, while Swordfish Mk.III (Skilled) boosts up the damage more than normal and Mk.II. )

Long story short: Night Carrier mechanic kinda sucks on CVLs with bad aircraft capacities.
