Historynerd Posted June 7, 2016 Report Share Posted June 7, 2016 http://i.imgur.com/ZkzwPqC.jpg Saw it too; what about it? Interesting, though, that they consider the Caracciolo-class as a battlecruiser... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
von_Lipstig Posted June 7, 2016 Report Share Posted June 7, 2016 Impero, Falco & Miraglia listed as Hypotetical Aquila listed as comparable to Hiyou Still better than nearly all other navy trees, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Historynerd Posted June 7, 2016 Report Share Posted June 7, 2016 Impero, Falco & Miraglia listed as Hypotetical Aquila listed as comparable to Hiyou Still better than nearly all other navy trees, though. All due respect, but I see that the tree is rather mish-mashed together. The Caracciolo, as I pointed out, is listed as battlecruiser, although that may still work. The Capitani Romani are listed as light cruisers, although they were in the grey area between them and big destroyers (I tend to consider more like super destroyers, myself). IRL, the Impero (the fourth Littorio-class battleships) wouldn't have had anything that made her significantly better than her sisters. Besides, in the forums there is quite a bit of people who say that the developers did some pretty confusing things with Italy, and they are not happy with it.

DrYuriMom Posted June 7, 2016 Report Share Posted June 7, 2016 Alright, I just wondered why the two cases should be treated differently; given that neither ship was actually completed and commissioned, I don't see why the Graf Zeppelin could be considered less of a paper-ship than the Aquila. Fair enough. Just realize "No Comment" with a smiley is not a negation. It's a tease. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Metis Posted June 7, 2016 Report Share Posted June 7, 2016 Oh dear. Here's me worried about what will happen on this forum when the Legate finds his stash of [redacted]. Also, the phrase "but first, '39!" gives me the impression that the VB coming out will only cover the first year of the game (out of a theoretical six, I suppose?), which would be...horrible. Of course than I remember "oh right, freemium web game", but those few forgetful seconds are dreadful, I assure you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Legate of Mineta Posted June 7, 2016 Report Share Posted June 7, 2016 v_L; No, fairly far beyond, too. The game goes all the way until the end of the war, and then some. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
von_Lipstig Posted June 7, 2016 Report Share Posted June 7, 2016 No, fairly far beyond, too. The game goes all the way until the end of the war, and then some. 09.1939-(~09.1940) ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Legate of Mineta Posted June 7, 2016 Report Share Posted June 7, 2016 v_L; Hmmm, not quite sure I understand- the game goes from 9/39 to ?/46. The Story evolves over real time, though, so you'll be playing the alternate history as it unfolds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Legate of Mineta Posted June 7, 2016 Report Share Posted June 7, 2016 v_L; Oh, it's 4 months- the game begins in September. Once December of '39 completes, January of '40 starts, and so on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nel Celestine Posted June 7, 2016 Report Share Posted June 7, 2016 Nel; And longer for your much more advanced paper ships. But you'll have your hands full, I'm sure. Well, gives me time to build up resources and the like. Might play more defensively then and focus on getting as much support as possible so I can have her right at her launch for world first.

Fifrein Posted June 7, 2016 Report Share Posted June 7, 2016 Nel; And longer for your much more advanced paper ships. But you'll have your hands full, I'm sure. So basically I can't get Willie Dee, even though she's fully planned and maybe even modeled already, until July 2021? That seems a bit too long to me. I'm not sure my attention span will last that long. Given real time, though: I'm not sure if this has been asked already but either way I forgot. Does each ship have exactly 1 death day, or does it happen every year like a birthday? Edit: Assuming march release, recalculated to January 2021. Still, that's real long Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Legate of Mineta Posted June 7, 2016 Report Share Posted June 7, 2016 Nel; Her launch will be *epic*. Fifrein; The Story has a slow, grand build. We'll hope you'll stay buckled in all the way to the chaotic arrival of Miss Dee. Death Date is once, unless the Belle has more than one.

Ninjapacman Posted June 7, 2016 Report Share Posted June 7, 2016 Death Date is once, unless the Belle has more than one. Such as Lutzow/Deutschland.... Also, the real time is an advantage for me. It gives me time to min/max the shit out of Graf Spee before December 17th. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do, however, expect her to assist in the rescuing of my primary battleship belle in march 28th 2018 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Historynerd Posted June 7, 2016 Report Share Posted June 7, 2016 It is still good for a paper (JP tree is far more *paper*) I haven't seen the IJN tree. But let me say just one more thing, then I'll shut up for good: San Giorgio-class heavy cruiser after Zara-class. (If you wonder, the San Giorgio was an old armoured cruiser, built some twenty years before the Zara-class...) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Legate of Mineta Posted June 7, 2016 Report Share Posted June 7, 2016 Nel; Hahaha! Thanks! I've gotten in trouble more than once. But so worth it. Historynerd; It does seem a little surprising, given that this is the 4th iteration, that they haven't managed to get those details right. And that's not usually the sort of thing they change in a patch, either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
