I have been working on new ship lines for all the nations except Russia the is just so little to work with that wouldn't be total fiction. What I have so far is new CV lines for usn and uk.

The new line for USN wou start with CV1 USS Langley at level 54, The first US cv ever made fought in ww2 and was sunk.

The CV2 Would be USS Wolverine, it was a training CV
built on a paddle wheel steamer and operated on the great lakes during WW2. It would be made available at 63.

   The CV3 would be USS Wasp available at 71 it was a modified   
Yorktown that also served during WW2.

    the new CV4 would be the USS Ranger which was the first purpose built carrier constructed by the USN and it would be available at level 82
The line would then merge into the other to get to CV5 

   

 The Uk will get a new CV line as well with the Argus at 55  the Argus was like the Langly the first CV of its nations navy it served all through the war and was scrapped after the war.
the CV2 is the Hermes and it would be available at 66 It also served in WW2 and was sunk by the Japanese in the indian ocean.

    the CV3 would be the Eagle available at level 72
it was another UK cv that served in WW2 and was torpedoed in the atlantic  by a german submarine. This line would then merge into the other CV line as I have yet been able to
have found a suitably unique enough CV4

I have also worked out new BB lines for IJN KM and MN. The IJN are partially real ships and designs, The KM are WW1 battle ships and the MN ships are all designs, They go from
BB1 through BB4 I will post my ideas and hitpoints aircraft space and guns if this is recieved well among the community
Thanks for reading this and please recomend

Ok gents I have the French line set up I thought I would see what you guys thought
The BB1 is the Jaureguiberry a bb from the 1890s like the borodino the mikasa the and the AP It has 4 Rslots 2 on the on the ends and 2 across from eachother amidships these would hold the double 12 inch giving a 6 shell broadside

The bb2 is the Durand-Viel design of 1913 it has 2 quad 13.4 inch turrets 1 for and 1 aft

the bb3 is Gilles 1913 design with 3 quad 13.4 inch turrets with 1 for and 2 aft superfiring turrets instead of the turret amidships like with the normandie

The bb4 is the Gascogne another design that competed with the dunker but was never built it is similar to the bb2 in turret layout but has 15 inch quads instead also this ship was designed with an impressive secondary armament and will have 3 5.1 inch quads down the center with 1 for and 2 aft with 4 5.1 inch doubles on the sides

Well what do you guys think. Iknow there are a lot of other things that I would like to see fixed with the game first but i think these lines would be really cool to see in game and would inrease the variety and maybe the player population a bit but fixing the other problems would also increase player population as well so we had better give them more choices when they get here eh boys
Take care
Levi
I will try to do KM and IJN later today i know there isn't much as far as particulars about these ships but I thought it could be sort of a group effort to anyone else who cares

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Ok it has been a lot longer than I have thought it would be but I have been very busy and any time I have i spend it in game but I have the Germans new bb line. It starts off with the Scheswig-Holstien which is a pre WW1 pre dreadnaught battleship It has 2 dual 11 inch turrets for and aft. It served with the KM during WW1 and was not sunk at Scapa Flow with the rest of the navy Germany retained the ship and it was modernized and served in WW2 where I believe it was sunk by RN aircraft

The BC2 is the Von Der Tann It has 4 dual 11 inch guns spaced on the ship a lot like the French Lyon however the 2 middle turrets are offset to port and starboard but in real life the ship was able to give a full 8 gun broadside from both sides of the ship

The BB3 is the Konig which will carry 5 dual 12 inch turrets all down the center line with 2 superfiring for and aft with the fifth amidships. I don't know if they could make a 12 inch gun for km I don't play km so I don't know if they have them in game or not, but they had them in WW1 anyway! It is laid out a lot similar to the bretagne but I think it will be a bit better and way cooler to look at because if there is anything good about km is they look cool. Except for the p pro's

The BB4 is the Baden which is part of the actual Bayern class but that name is already taken so that a bummer. Any how the Baden has 4 dual 15 inch turrets laid out in the standard 4 turret bb design with 2 superfiring turrets for and aft.

As far as this German line goes i doubt they should have wonderful AA setups because they are WW1 era ships but maybe the could be a little stouter than thier other KM contemproaries and maybe sacrifice a bit of range for hitting power for the guns. All of these ships served in WW1 and were at Jutland unless im wrong. Save for the Schleswig they we all scuttled at Scappa Flow or scrapped in the interwar years.

I wish I knew how to post pictures on here I think it would help a lot with my vision for these new lines
Thanks again
Levi

I so recommend the ship lines to be based upon the historical ships. Malta Project? Queen Victoria? WTF were they never heard about those ships? Although post the actual lines then I could decide. Also posting the actual lines so far we can offer suggestions and replacements.

In a slightly foul mood at the moment, amoungst things car got egged as I was on the way to work.

As far as I know, the BB6 are pure fiction.


All other ships are based on real ships, or plans for them. Often the ship named "project" never left the drawing board. Its the case for KM plan Z that was trashed in favor of the U-Boats. Many KM BB would have been built with it.

I thought they just thought "hmmm, thats a British queen. lets super size and super buff and make the L2 look sexy and hey presto, you have UK BB6.

Similar story for all the other BB6's
