I am in the process of designing a campaign scenario for the German Invasion of Norway April - June 1940. Part of it is the land operations (look for posts in the AAM Scenario & Custom Card threads), but a major part is also the naval operations of this historic military campaign. I've trawled through this site, the old forumini and other internet sites to find existing WaS ship & aircraft cards for all of the historic units that took part in the Norway campaign. Hats off to folks like Weedrock who have made so many WWII era cards. I've found about 70% of the individual ships & aircraft that took part in the Norway operation. I probably have 90-95% of the ship classes, so even if I don't have each individual ship or aircraft I have at least one of that class or type.
But a notable ship type that seems to be missing is the British Cairo class Anti-Air Cruiser. I couldn't find any WaS card designs for it, but did find one mention of possible stats for this ship on the old forumini.
HMS Cairo
United Kingdom
C class AA cruiser
MG 4/4/3
AA 6
Hull 3/8/3
SAs
AA Specialist
Convoy Defender
Auxiliary Leader
Does this look right? I'm more of a land unit designer, so I'm hoping to get some help with this WaS ship card design.
Here is a Wikipedia listing for this ship: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HMS_Cairo_(D87)
Three of this ship class participated in the Norway Campaign; HMS Cairo (damaged May 28, 1940), HMS Carlisle and HMS Calcutta. A fourth AA Cruiser of the Ceres class, HMS Curacoa, (damaged April 24, 1940) also participated. I'm not too worried about simulating that one. If I can get a proper ship card for the HMS Cairo, I'd be happy with that.
