I usually field Zuikaku because of airfield strike. Ya never know....
Second try. It's my first poll. Oopsie _________________ Life is what happens while you make other plans |

Shokaku, it's cheaper and airfield strike is right next to useless. _________________

Shokaku, for the reasons previously stated. Although, it should be said that Zuikaku certainly has a cooler paint scheme.... _________________ "

I've witnessed Airfield Strike work well but..
Flag 1 + Expert Bomber 2 for 2 points less? Shokaku gets my vote.
Might as well ask if Kongo is better than Haruna. _________________

Oh, it certainly is, but its the same sort of thing. A reprinted sister with a questionable SA and no Flag and at a greater cost. _________________

I think I tried to post on here earlier, perhaps it ended up in a different thread. Well, here goes. I take Shokaku, it's cost makes it versatile, it fits in so many builds. Even though Soryu's dogfighter 2 might make Zuikaku's airfield strike a bit better, it's still not worth the extra points ... unless you want to pay for the paint job. _________________

Nope, that's part of the beauty of it, to see whether the other guy gets it or not. _________________

Shokaku... because Expert Bomber 2 is needed to make up for the under-weight (compared to U.S. dive-bombers) base payload of IJN dive-bombers. And it can take a bit of abuse. Not that I dislike Soryu, but it just doesn't have the robustness of the Shokaku. _________________
