Nimitz Class Aircraft Carrier

I think I have this down a little better, but I still haven't taken the time to learn the availability or Tech Codes yet.  But I figure it is time to go big, really big... (and I'm sure I made some mistakes, so if you want to check it and you have time DarthMetool I would appreciate it).

The Patton of wargame design, the Berg himself, is being immortally quoted elsewhere.
"Rich Berg once responded to gamers comments about one of his games, "I make this ****** up, so can you.""

"Back in MY day we played Battletech with figures made of LEAD! POISONED LEAD! And the only PAINT we had was RADIOACTIVE! Why, we lost at least THREE or FOUR dear friends every YEAR to BATTLETECH POISONING! But we didn't know any better, and we LIKED IT!
And we rolled DICE for HOURS to play our games! There was none of this plastic clicky nonsense! Our DICE were radioactive TOO! And we had to roll them for hours and hours and hours to track EVERY SINGLE MISSILE! Why, my some of my friends are STILL rolling dice for their last turn when I left Norman THREE YEARS ago! And I don't plan to move back for at least five years and it STILL won't be my turn! But we didn't know any better, and we LIKED IT.

The Gerald R. Ford class is a variant that has a medium laser (to be built by Raytheon) in T1 to T6 which does not increase turret size.  This requires 18 tons of heat sinks to handle the heat generation.  This reduces cargo space to 12,157.5 tons

Thank you.  You don't know how excited I've been to see actual rules for Blue Water Craft (as opposed to the Green Water Craft you can build with the combat vehicle rules).  And it's nice to see the "New Experimental Tech" of BT catch up so I can model real world units.

Could always moderinze it and give it MML's, along with some LB-X AC's for Anti-Air defense, very nice though either way
Quote from: Nanaki
Realism is not going to cut it, Battletech is not a realistic universe by any stretch of the imagination, so please stop using it in an argument.

Quote from: HABeas2
That's debatable, but let's face it; some folks gave them a pass because they were big and claimed to be Scottish.

Yeah, the problem is the Phalanx CIWS is both anti-missile and anti-aircraft, but doesn't work that way in Battletech.
