    First off - his. In case you wonder in the future. Sorry to break your dreams xD Also sorry, I can't help it, when it's history, I love talking about history, and it's japanese destroyers, I LOVE talking about Japanese destroyers. I just found a drawing of Ayanmi's internal layout, I had been looking for AGES for that ! Secondly - yes, and no, and yes, and no, and yes. It's a legend. I mean, no, Fubuki WAS top-heavy and kinda unstable in bad weather, but the legend is that she was far more top-heavy than other destroyers. In fact, nearly all pre-war US destroyers from Farragut up to pre-Benson designs were top-heavy too. And so were the French and Russians. The British were a little less in average but they gained some top-weight as they expanded, with the Tribals and L class, and also, the first Battle batch was top-heavy and unstable. In fact, after the Japanese corrected the top-heavy problems, IJN destroyers were probably more stable than most counterparts - at the cost of speed, of course. Also, Ayanami and Akatsuki weren't any less top-heavy. In fact, Akatsuki was even worse, lmike, WORSE worse, because her boilers were a more efficient kind, so they afforded to remove one and switch from four to three, efficiently reducing the weight below the waterline even MORE. Hatsuharu was the pinacle of instability, which is precisely why the class was stopped at four, critically rebuilt whilst the last two vessels were built with a new design - Ariake subclass - and then finally later vessels were redesigned as a completely new class - Shiratsuyu - which, amongst minor improvement such as quadruple tubes, were nothing else than a Hatsuharu was good stability. Only at THAT time were the older special-types also rebalanced.It wasn't before some time after Hatsuharu's launch. If you quote a good destroyer from early war or 30s+, it's probably top-heavy. Fantasque ? Split ? Gleaves ? Tashkent ? Yup, all of them. The real question is how much top-heavy they were and in the matter of stability, little defeats the Italians, for their destroyers were, like, unable to stand on their two feet. Didn't even have feet. Unable to stand, at all.

    Considering that Kancolle is probably far more historically accurate than WoWs, that's quite ironic... Latest re-examination of proofs tend to show that Fubuki couldn't have done it in time and place. As far as I know, nowadays, the main suspect is Mogami.

    Aaah, MMD stuff. Reminds me of Orbital Rabbit. Crazy how good this one was.
  5. Btw, sur le sujet, il peut être interessant de rappeler que Yamato est une manière archaique de dire Japon...

    Battleships are now obsolete

    If it's unrealistic, it doesn't matter what era it is. Since it's... not... realistic. Get it ? Besides, no, once again, I have to repeat : when talking about WWII BBs are far behind in terms of vessel types you should be thinking of. Not only aircraft carriers, but also destroyers, submarines, hell, pretty much everything else that sails played a bigger role. BBs had been a dying race since the mid 20s. So talking about the 40s ? Bbs are definitely not spot-on, no.

    Have you tryied running several of those in different tabs, all only veeeery slightly out of sync ? I HAVE FOUND THE MEANING OF LIFE GUYS. (btw, after listening to a considerable time of five of these at once, I can tell you that she does NOT sing at the same speed through the whole 10 hours. Some weeeeird things are happening in my headphones right now) Edit : DONT. Ever do this with Nepgya if you value at least one of these : - Your sanity - Your hearing - Your internet connexion NEVER.

    Gotta fix this. But this is an unrealistic WWII arcade game, don't you forget that.

    Missing ships

    Atlanta isn't a destroyer and wasn't in the preorder package, the US destroyer in preorder was Sims.
  10. On peut etre quality poster en trashtalkant Failgaming avec qualité ?
  11. Bah on a eu exactement le meme topic avec les memes remarques nan ? Nan, je crois même que dans le topic EU il y a eu beaucoup plus de blague french white flag hon hon hon. Sur le coup j'ai limite l'impression que les US sont en moyenne plus mature que les européens.

    Convince me to go Soviet DDs

    Well actually, they have an Italian ship, a derivation of an Italian, two Italian blueprinted ships with Italian elements, ships derived from ships derived from Italian ships, a fictional copy of an Italian esploratori, and the derpzki supergroup. Ah, AND Grovoi. No idea what the hell is this thing.

    Animes vos préféré et les référence

    Tsais très bien qu'on a que dalle les mêmes gours xD rgarde ton roster de la saison, on partage seulement deux animes et les deux sont sur ma liste "plus tard, on verra" ^^ Et pis la saison 2 kestuveux qu'j'en fasses, j'ai pas vu la 1 et chépa ce que c'est en général xD
  16. Un navire resté au dessus du niveau de la mer ? Si, bien sûr, parmis les premier. EN fait, tellement vite que c'est pour ça que ça m'étonne qu'on sache absolument pas. La dernière trace qu'on ait de son existence c'est quand les US l'ont exploré en 1946. Ils n'ont ni essayé de la couler, détruire, démanteler ou bouger, donc elle est resté là. Si elle avait été dismantle, je pense que ça se serait découvert. Après, on peut aussi douter du féraillage. Après tout Kikuzuki est toujours là où elle est (enfin ce qu'il en reste) à ce jour et ce depuis mai 1942 ; personne ne s'est fait suer à essayer de récupérer ce qu'il restait.
  17. Nice. J'attends impatiemment que quelqu'un mette la main sur Hayashimo. Ca devrait pas être dur, elle a littéralement coulé au dessus du niveau de la mer, c'est dingue que personne sache ce qu'elle est devenue.

    I have... no idea what you're talking about there. I mean, I understand, but I don't see how that's related to what I said and the links I posted. At all.

    BRITISH AIRCRAFTCARRIERS AND SUBMARINES

    Does that mean you'll go backwards ? Also, what if an ennemy sneaks behind you, will you first turn around ? And what if their are enemies at 12 and 6 ? Will you make a quarter of turn and show a broadside to each, ensuring none gets more of your stern than the others ? And if they're all around you ? Will you sink by the stern so that only your stem pokes out of the water - until nothing pokes out anymore ?

    Pour un des nations qui peut se permettre sans trop de problème une branche complète et même une sub-branch derrière, ce serait dommage.
