Time for a SuperDuper EU Battleship.

As there are so many fantasy ships in the game these days, why not also a Superduper class of  T I to T X  battleships from nothern Europé?

WOWs could give them Polish and Swedish names as there are many historical ties between this two countries. Lets call the T X ship "Wasa" as kings from the Wasa dynasty once upon a time ruled both Poland and Sweden. Then we can give the ship superior main artillery from Bofors, 60 cm barrels with a range of 30 km, dispersion 30 meters.  Then lets add extremly strong HP, lets say 400 000, and toatlly fireproof. Top speed, well lets be modest and give it only 49 knots top speed. I Think it would be a brilliant move from WoWs, getting a lot of buyers from Poland and Sweden. Unrealistic? Well what about a lot of the ingame already existing ships? How many of the russian BBs were ever buildt? Kurfurst? etc etc....

Go for it WoWs!  :Smile_glasses:

In order to compete with the upcoming Russian cruisers we need the "Scharnhorst-Class Battlecruiser".


That way we can Nuke them from orbit.

Its the only way to be sure.

We could have; Gustav V, or any other ships of the Sverige class along with the dristigheten, Oscar, Aran, Oden, or Svea classes (Swedish),  The Vainamoinen (Finland), and Niels Juel (Danish).  Sadly there is very little on offer BB wise, mainly because the major players are already in the game.

 

Instead WG could give us Rodney, New Jersey, Royal Sovereign and many other BBs instead of paper ships.

Yes please. Even if it's realistic (bad) I'd shell out money for that in an instant.

Well those ships were kind of pocket battleships, a bit like the german. As Heavy crusers they might work?

Imho. Time for Italian BB Line, then Us BB's split,  Italian DD's and then they could add a Spanish Line. Then after this we could add more paper totally non existent line.

I hope everyone realizes this thread is ment a bit ironic but  this is exactly what already  has happend in the game. Lots of fantasy ships in there. So why not a North european BB line?

Well, as things stand, i would not be surprised if they introduce Uganda Navy or Gibuti BB lines with blueprints found in an ancient valley in the heart of Africa. Nothing against Swedish Navy or other navies, but we Italians are waiting for our BB's to come :Smile_sad: let us have our BB line and then i will support every new line they want (also Swaziland one). :D

Can you imagine a heavy cruiser with 14.5 knots speed and 10-inch guns?

Not sure about North-Europe exclusively, but if you look at all EU minors, then just put Espana at III, Yavuz or Tegethoff at IV, and with 2 BBs that sailed you already have a line that is less paper than the ingame Russian BB one.
