Asheshouse, I suggest PM'ing Fireball about the cat. He said that it is doable provided someone produced a carrier deck the size of the catapult rail.
Some challenges I foresee: dealing with the crosswind during the launch and making sure that the catapult throw is sufficient to get the Walrus up and away with a full combat load.
Fireball has set a ring of about 10 meters around the beginning of the cat within which you hit your chocks and you are snapped into place. That ring would need to be expanded for the cat on a CA or BB in order for the pilot to land and taxi up alongside to re-board and launch again.
