Why no destroyers?

[Timothy]

Thanks for the reply. Although I know that this game is based more on a "grand" strategic level, it seems as if leaving out destroyers (at least at some type of abstract level) would make the game too unrealistic for me, especially if other types of ships are being included. After all, the destroyers were the main naval "work horse" during WWII and were involved in some degree in just about every naval theatre and conflict.

Anyway, I still look forward to the release of this game. Hopefully reading the various player reviews and comments about this game will help me decide whether or not to purchase it.
