The Ships of the Father Expansion
This "what if" collection of aircraft carriers, suggested by an avid wargamer and drawn up by the folks at Avalanche Press, comprises three ships that did not see action at Leyte Gulf, but are sisters of ships that do have unit counters in the game. The included carriers are the Essex-class Tarawa and Boxer, and the Commencement Bay-class Bairoko (Bairoko sisters in the Leyte Gulf game are Block Island and Gilbert Islands).
