Navies are like corporate lawyers

As one may imaging, I didn't think the U.S. Navy's projection of power was adequate for Saipan et al.
   

Notes:

• The destroyers are given their class names. The names will be editable in the Vassal extension.
  
• The LST image will be randomized in the Vassal extension, it might be changeable too.
  
• The LCI can carry 3 units, but they must be foot personnel units or mortars smaller than 90mm. The troops run down the 2 side ramps, so big weapons are difficult to handle.
  
• The LCT can carry 1 vehicle up to an armor value of 5(?). Heavier vehicles are transported as reduced counters.
  
• The LCI® fires the 4.5" beach barrage rocket. The range was fixed at 1100 yards. Hence the boat's range is fixed at 8 hexes. (6 would have been more correct, but seemed a bit shout for the game.)
  

LSVs are in the works, but since the official LCI® is likely to be different (and I would say wrong), future proofing for Leyte is a futile effort. YP-17, with her 37mm pom-pom, is in the mix. I do hope add a cruiser to the USN force, I think something like a Burmingham would be nice,
