[OGHF] THE_JUDEAN_PEOPLES_FRONT Players 121 posts 12,716 battles Report post #1 Posted October 6, 2019 The need for wargaming to give players an outlet to spend all the silver and expirence.... How about having customizable (spelt wrong) ports and commanders to the level of other online games.. maybe 1. the lay out of the port screen could be changed in color or scale or to be able to change the uniforms of commanders etc. 2. the port itself could be made like the clan top down view. 3. different upgradable building and port equipment like cranes and drydocks. 4. ammo dumps and maybe even barracks etc. 5. have the ability to put in roads and aircraft facilities,small parade grounds etc. players could buy different buildings/motorboats/uniforms etc etc in the armory. so a british person might make their home port look like portsmouth. americans like norfolk or peral harbour, russian like vladivostock etc etc. just a thought. 8 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'd pay money to replace that PoS London with a real naval base such a Plymouth or Portsmouth. On second thoughts though, WG would find some way to F it up. 7 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ohhhh I dunno. A fully done Scapa with all the classics and legendary RN ships in dock would be immense. Having been there it looks vast but so empty. Would love an in game Scapa. Pompey would be sweet though, I’ll give you that. And then I’d also love Harland and Wolff dockyard Belfast with HMS Belfast and the CV’s built there in port. Though I imagine it would look oddly naked without Samson and Goliath... 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Scapa had no dockyard facilities it was not a harbor Scapa flow was an anchorage I have this book.. the cover pretty much shows you the port facilities completely. Portsmouth and Davenport/Plymouth they would be great 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
