As I've resorting out my fleets, I noticed that I seem to be missing some of the IJN cruisers. That, or they were not printed. Looking for Takao, Kako, any others of the Oi class,Sendai, any of the Katori class, Noshiro, Sakawa, Yura, Abukuma. I checked thru the Team decks but did not find them. Any assistance welcome. Seems odd that one of the various teams issues is lack of major combatants, yet here are quite a few. Instead, we get more planes. (Not complaining, but ships are preferred.

Are you looking for custom cards, or wondering if they've been done by the teams?

Between Frozen Seas, Brigs, SWO, Capt. Strange, and myself, most or all of those have been done (I think it is Frozen Seas that has a very nice Kitakami card with Torpedo Swarm)

I have a number of the custom decks, but have not yet played with them.

Competing demands. There's certainly been a effort to provide ships to represent or fill classes but by the same token. Thats mo value to players who want big ships or round out smaller nations.

Cruisers, especially small cruisers also suffer for being stuck in the middle, comparimg poorly with DD and BB for game ppay usefulness. Also making useful cruisers without blowing away existing ships and still having a recognisable niche is a challenge

Seeing your post I went through my IJN cruiser deck and categorize them for you. I will not include the WOTC ones, unless you want me to do them

SeaGods Brigman SWO_Daddy Frozen Seas

Idzumo Kashii Kiso Kitakami
Yubari Kuma Yura Mikuma
Tenryu Natori Abukuma Chokai
Nagara Kinu Sendai
Iszu Noshiro Jinstu (Lucky_Y)
Oyodo Kako Myoko (Lucky_Y)
Furutaka Ashigara Nachi (Lucky_Y)
Kinugasa Takao Mogami (Lucky_Y)
Chokai Tone (Lucky_Y)
Kumano Ibuki

Brigman & SWO_Daddy's Combined Ops deck is not released yet. But they have Tama/Mikuma/Kurama in the works

If you want to go way back in the Repaint Reference on the old Forumini, jfkziegler made a number of cards.

Thanks very much! I have a number of the decks from Brigs and such, so will have to go thru them. Jintsu is way overpriced, Oi is specifically a torp cruiser, and that doesn;t lead a lot for light cruisers. Yahagi is about the best, but I think there is plenty of room for useful light cruisers in the IJN arsenal.
