DrYuriMom Posted May 22, 2016 Report Share Posted May 22, 2016 Should be nice having some Indian flair. Probably one of the biggest reasons I'm excited for Victory Belles; having different accents and languages for different ships Don't forget appearance, too. Amen!

A foul mouthed tomboy Northerner with a pension for prizefighting, and was the first ship to capture an Enigma machine from a U-boat? Yeah, She kinda became that after I did the research on her. Usually I'm all about battleships and heavy cruisers but for a destroyer to grab my attention so quickly? Kinda fell in love with her easily Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wellington99 Posted May 22, 2016 Report Share Posted May 22, 2016 Oh good catch, I did miss her. Are you talking about the American ship in this pic (who I would like to think is Arizona?)? not sure which splash screen you two are talking about Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Legate of Mineta Posted May 22, 2016 Author Report Share Posted May 22, 2016 W99; That unnamed Belle is indeed who I mean. She also recently was tweeted, in the final hours of the campaign, so you can get a better look at her. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AgamemnonAhb Posted May 22, 2016 Report Share Posted May 22, 2016 W99: Or the South Dakota. But I want to know who it is too. I'm interested in the Texas. I want to see her. But guys please do a native Texan a solid and not have her say frickin' "Howdy!" I swear.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Legate of Mineta Posted May 22, 2016 Author Report Share Posted May 22, 2016 AAhb; But...'Howdy' is used in Texas. I've some family over there, and they definitely drop it. Too cliche? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XKrieg Posted May 22, 2016 Report Share Posted May 22, 2016 Belles I want to see first? Canarias pls. I really like her art so I would like to see more of her.

DrYuriMom Posted May 22, 2016 Report Share Posted May 22, 2016 They also use "y'all" quite a fair bit (grew up there for 15 years of my life) As a recovering Texan, I can attest to this. I learned to talk in Canyon, TX and still use y'all even nearly 40 years after escaping. Howdy, too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Howdy, too. Tend to class myself as English first, Texan second. Not yet got to the point where I identify as an Ohioan, only lived here for 5-6 years so far. My regular speaking voice is kind of a mix of English and Texan pronunciations and I swap certain ones from time to time (Skedule vs Shedule for example for Schedule) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrYuriMom Posted May 22, 2016 Report Share Posted May 22, 2016 I can usually keep my Texas twang to a minimum until I spend time around a current Texan and their accent. It takes me two weeks to wash my mouth of the accent again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AgamemnonAhb Posted May 22, 2016 Report Share Posted May 22, 2016 No, no, Howdy is still used. Usually it only gets said because nonTexans seem to expect it from us. It's an image thing I guess. The problem is these stereotypes don't sound anything like a Texas accent. But I'm just dropping my two cents. Really looking forward to seeing Mighty T and so many others.

Wellington99 Posted May 22, 2016 Report Share Posted May 22, 2016 I think most people don't have an idea what a specific Texan accent is. It's like when someone realizes that Yorkshire and Lincolnshire sound totally different despite being close to one another, or a London accent vs a Cockney accent Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
