Description
### Updated for ""Trial of Allegiance" and "Bolivar" v1.14.* ###

Tested with Bolivar v1.14.1.e4e7(82ef) Release.

Note: *** This mod will not work with game versions before Bolivar v1.14.* because of map changes in 'vanilla' by PDX. ***

Tested with Stella Polaris v1.13.4.0735 (15a3) Release.
- Added armor slot for Light and Fleet carriers. (Vanilla also added armor belt to carriers).
- Added MIO hooks to Carriers where possible.

Adds Light Carrier Hulls (3 levels - '36, '40, and '44) and one Escort Carrier hull (1 level - '32) for nations that have carrier tech available.

*** You MUST research Carrier Deck Conversion Hulls first if your country does not have them!!!! ***
*** You MUST research Carrier Plane Variants and build them for your carriers to have them when constructed!!!! ***

Assigns different Task Force icons to Fleet, Light & Escort for countries that start with carriers to keep them seperate in the Task Force Interface.

Assigns custom ship name lists for Fleet, Light, and Escort Carriers for most countries that had them.
- Fixed the annoying duplicate name lists bug.

Increases aircraft capacity of each level up to 140 planes available for the 1944 Fleet Carrier.

Also adds a small plane storage (10 planes) and large plane storage (30 planes) for certain carrier slots.

Adds additional slots to later hulls - allows both radar & sonar on Carriers for Anti-Submarine duty.

Adds Escort Carrier and Light Carrier icons courtesy of steam user Discourse Stu.
**-------->> Many thanks to Discourse Stu. <<---------**

Adds Improved and Advanced Flight Deck Armor and let you build lots of it if you want to.
Adds a decision to build and equip 3 carriers with planes for FRA, GER, ITA, and SOV if they research carrier conversions (Only original tags, no civil war support).
Simplified carrier building and maxxed out all slots on the 1944 Fleet Carriers - up to 140 planes.
Compatable with "Naval Reskin - Paint the Guns", the excellent naval re-skin mod, highly recommended.

Keeps the 1936 carriers for ENG/JAPAN/USA (Ark Royal, Soryu, Yorktown classes) the same to stay Treaty-legal but adds slots for more upgrades post-treaty.

Feedback welcome,
Enjoy!!

Should be good to go, but, as always, if you see a problem add a comment.

p_fullmer -
Sorry, no, both change Naval Research, this mod adds more carrier hulls, RT56 extends research into more years.

compatible with rt56?

Updated for latest release, 1.12.5.

Many thanks to Discourse Stu for graciously permitting me to use the Escort and Light Carrier graphics from his mod "Light and Escort Carriers" from pre-MTG days. Thanks Stu.

I'm afraid that I'm probably too far ahead then I'm in 1945. But this does give me a reason to play another campaign. ;)

King, I would think it would mess up an ongoing one, but if it is early so no countries changes carriers from game start, might work.
King Vangarh Oct 18, 2022 @ 1:45pm 
Thanks I'll try it out in my next game of KR. Unless I can just plug it into my ongoing one?

King Vangarh, try the mod link below for the NEW KAISERREICH version of "Baby Flat Tops".

It's your lucky day, lol. Give it a try and see how you like it.
