yes, the Mogami 44 is odd. i've come to regard it as a well armed seaplane tender; primary mission is to scout and mine if you have mines that is. Fighter planes and bombers (either torpedo or dive bombers, doesn't matter much) are 2nd and 3rd goals respectively. Reason i say scouting is of most importance is simply, and sad to put it, is that most BB's and even some CV's fail to provide sight to BB's and CV's. Hope you won't be too disappointed with that of a scout carrier, but at least it'll net some EXP and mining will provide the occasional lucky hit for attack. oh, guns and torps are defensive in nature, so only use them as a last resort or for picking off DD's and the occasional SS. It might look like a CA, but play it as a scout heavy CV and stick to the carriers behind the lines. Or, if you equip locals, you can hunt down some enemy scouts and keep them blind, but be careful as you'll be operating ridiculously close to the battle line and BB's always do the "Shoot first, question later" montage. hope this helps
