Task Force 57 which was probably the most powerful formation that the RN ever put to sea. And It galls me every time my Lexington gets it's [edited]kicked by the seemingly invincible Graf Zeppelin. Losing to a carrier that was never completed, flying planes that were never used at sea is hard to take. RN CVs are already anounced? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Let's have more arcade fantasies to go along with the fantasy camos (esp the Halloween farces). Let's have Tesla coils & lasers & railguns & plasma weapons next.

jss78 Players 1,292 posts 12,833 battles Report post #30 Posted January 7, 2019 I ran into this video on Youtube. It's not really connected with the game, but I think some might be interested, as we wait for the RN CV's. It's a truly excellent look into why RN CV's are designed the way they are -- and what considerations led to the key differences compared to USN CV's (such as armoured flight decks and smaller plane capacities). 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
[NKK2] teen_geisha16 Players 160 posts 19,422 battles Report post #31 Posted January 8, 2019 It would have been nice to face them with the current cvs, but with the change they will not have any personality 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I was looking forward to the Brit CV tech tree line with current RTS CV play but not now. Not at all interested, myself, in more reworked FARCE CVs. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
[CG] Redcap375 Players 4,371 posts 15,291 battles Report post #33 Posted January 14, 2019 I too wished they brought these out on the current system. Oh well. Defo not gonna play the new CV's like i used to. 90% sure i'm gonna get rid of one whole line at the very least. The gameplay of the new system is soooo boring. Having 6 tier 8 Cv's is WWWWAAAYYYY to much. 8 when the new RN ones (including premium) come out too. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jss78 Players 1,292 posts 12,833 battles Report post #39 Posted January 15, 2019 I'll put some more historical content I ran into here, since it's so slow on news about the actual in-game RN CV's. Sorry to spam this stuff here, but I'm a little bit excited to finally see these ships in the game (I think I'm the only one). These pictures are fascinating to me, because they represent a naval might the Royal Navy hasn't really had during my lifetime. I was three months old when the Ark Royal, the last RN carrier to launch planes with catapults was decommissioned. Here's a beautiful picture of HMS Indomitable, the upcoming T8 premium, in the Mediterranean. Picture is taken from HMS Victorious, and in the background is HMS Eagle who'd be sunk a day later. (More colourised pictures of RN CV's here.) And here's a picture of the upcoming T10, HMS Audacious, who'd enter real-world service as HMS Eagle. This is her during the Suez crisis. In the background are the smaller Centaur-class fleet carriers HMS Bulwark and HMS Albion. (From this article.) Here's a later shot of the other Audacious-class ship, the Ark Royal. This is following her extensive refit, and now operating Phantoms and Buccaneers. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

[PFFC] MRGTB [PFFC] Players 1,285 posts Report post #41 Posted February 4, 2019 Looking forward to the British CV coming after trying to new rework today for the first time, seeing how CV plays now plays differently. I tried it before the rework and thought it wasn't involved enough like using ships, a bit boring really. Now things are far better with CV play, you are much more involved flying the planes being part of the match, far better visuals involved playing CV than before. Hopefully the next update might include the British CV, I did see a person on the enemy team testing the tier 6 one in a match other day. So looks like they are getting ready to add them very soon.

[NKK2] teen_geisha16 Players 160 posts 19,422 battles Report post #42 Posted February 5, 2019 it will be difficult for British csv to do well, whose specialty is fleet protection, a concept that no longer exists thanks to the crap of the new cvs mechanics Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
