So, I've been on a kick recently for finding options for installations specific to different nations for use in scenarios. Right now I'm bumping into three main obstacles:
1. The Neutral Heavy Shore Battery is just such a solid unit for the cost that making similar units feels redundant, unless a house rule that the Shore Battery cannot be used unless it is to represent Fort Drum.
2. There's such little point/SA background to go off of that it is hard to balance.
3. The needed SAs for installations (Coastal Facility, Installation 10, etc.) take up so much space on the card there's not a lot of room left for anything special. I try to keep things at 4 SAs max for simplicity's sake, but also want to highlight some of the unique-ness to each installation. So as a results of that and the 'prerequisite SAs' that need to be on the card, some have more than 4 but not in a major way.
All that being said, here is what I've came up with, but are in no way final units as I haven't tested these in great detail (and some not at all)
Edit - since apparently I can't link photos worth a poop, I've put in direct links.
US:
Battery Arizona
Wake Island Coastal Battery
USSR
Maxim Gorky I
Maxim Gorky II
UK
Maunsell Navy Fort
Maunsell Army Fort
Dover Coastal Guns
Japan
Betio Coastal Guns
Mt. Suribachi Defense Guns
Germany
Todt Battery
Neutral
Bomber Airfield
Fighter Airfield
