Ooooo as someone who has seriously expanded their auxiliary collection, Squint you know I'm bound to have some out there ideas.
We do have the original LST model for WoTC, so why not some LSM(R)s to go with them? It was an LSM ship basically with 75 4-rail rocket launchers and 30 6-rail rocket launchers. Excessive? I think not! Would be something to work into a shore bombardment SA or use with an invasion fleet scenario for sure.
I believe there are already some custom cards out there for merchant catapult-fighter ships. While sure they may not allow for basing planes for WoTC counts, they can still have some unique SA options as well. HMS Springbank would be an interesting model for sure, and I'd love to add something for an auxiliary rolling some extra AA dice or getting a boost against bombers for convoy scenarios. A little more bite to merchant marines never hurt anyone.
USS Fulton and her sister, USS Orion, were submarine tenders for decades, form the 1940s during WWII USN patrols all the way until the early 1990s. Both of which would be handsome minis to do up in dazzle patterns, a lot of surface area to work with there. Plus sub repair SA?
USS Currituck was a seaplane tender, while a late year, 1944, for commissioning, she served as a tender to seaplanes doing night operations. Definitely something that could get some use with buffing the Black Cat or otherwise shlumpy PBY.
The Nova Scotia was a troopship lost during the Battle for the Atlantic. A wonderful looking design, would make a really cool mini imo.
