(Unnofficial) Next Deck

Deck of 72 Fletchers?

I agree with the all DD deck also. It would be nice to have multiples of a class, versus bringing 3 JAVELIN to the show all with the same SA'S.

Flower Class - 225 units
Used by 13 nations

It could be done with all reprints. The "old timers" here know I used to be famous for my lists back in the WotC days. Mainly to counter all the naysayers back then that kept saying more sets couldn't be done. (And this was back when there were only a couple of sets!) This is a list I have been tinkering with for awhile. It manages to maintain an "okay" mix and balance IMO. Still room for a couple more. I am a little light on aircraft and those are easy to repeat. However, it should be noted that coming up with unique SA packages for these won't be easy. Most "niches" have been filled. We really, really struggled with the last deck because of this. We would definitely get our fill of DDs with this list.

Love the deck weeds. Though I'd replace Athabaskan and Swansea with a Liberator, Catalina and/or Sunderland

At least one of those would fine with me. I think I would replace Athabaskan with one of the aircraft. Swansea is a museum ship so those tend to be popular, but maybe not? Plus we have another Tribal class in Australia.

Which of the three aircraft do you think would be best? I am thinking the Sunderland would probably be the strongest game-wise.
