I thought about the 7th fleet. The US had an overwhelming advantage at night due to radar, but in daylight Yamato's guns would have been devastating. Enough to shift the balance? Who can say? It's also possible that Kurita could have dispatched his Desrons to deal with the landing force while he slugged it out with the 7th's BBs. In the end Johnston, Hoel, Heerman, and the Sammy B saved the day so we'll never know. I hope we see the Johnston in the game at some point. It's hard to think of a US ship that deserves it more.
