While I agree mostly, your comment also ignores advances in weaponry. So, sure, they are tough - but the yeild of bombs now as well as the threat of small scale nukes against the ships, even if meant to capsize, is quite different than the equivalant of hurling a ford expidition at them. Carriers are amazing amazing ships - I eould love a game solely focused on a war where an ultra vast ocean world made it such that all wars were carrier based and had vast submarine based support fleets. It would be great to have physics sims that allowed us armchair admirals to test carrier strengths against such traps as nuke icbm and cruise missles.
