I bought GF3 for WW2 Pacific surface battles and I like them but there is a decided lack of ship data charts for the major ship classes of the USN and IJN. There are a few for the Pacific scenario battle listed in the rulebook but beyond those you are out of luck.

Now I know there is a section in the book on ship conversions so you can convert any ship you want, but it looks a little daunting and I don't think you should have to do all the leg work yourself; it should come with the rules.

Anyhow, does anyone know of a source for more ship data charts, specifically Pacific war? Also I've seen allusions to a Pacific scenario book called "Awakened Giant" for GF3, but haven't seen it anywhere. Anyone know anything about it?

Thanks in advance for your input.

P.S. This is just a re-post of a post that I mistakenly didn't include on this board.

Well, after having no luck I've decided to go with Naval Thunder. Got it from Wargame Vault. It looks really good. Wish me luck.
