If you could make up a ship...

[Sub_Human]

Like the titel says: If you could make up a ship to add to the game, what would it be?

 

Im not longing for any historical ship myself. I just played Leningrad and Minsk in ranked and thought that wouldnt it be nice if WG added a Pan Asian version of said ships. I love Fushun sooo much. Now imagine a t7 version. Even something gunboaty on t8 would be interesting, PA Kiev?

 

The existing PA DD premiums are kinda meh in my eyes. Lo Yang is a great ship for divisions but not so great for solo play. FenYang is plain bad as is the worse Ognevoi.

Anshan is good but Fushun is better.

 

Leningrad with DW torps and 5 smokes... *wiping drool of my chin*

A Tier 9 Mainz. Drooling at the thought. 30mm plating all around, a 6th slot for extra range or even insaner reload, and a slight DPM buff. 👍😎👌

More dakka for the people 👍

[tocqueville8]

A Tier 10 Georgia.

 

Same guns, but triple turrets.

Same maneuverability, more hp.

[WalkingDutchman]

A missile cruiser with missiles that can span the entire map but can only hit CV's.

All I can think of is analogous to putting a Super Stardestroyer into WoWs. 

Basically the biggest ship possible... let's have it a conservative 13km long with no concealment and bad manoeuvrability, but unmatched survivability(let's forgo energy shielding for balance tho), armed to the teeth and bristling with effective long range secondaries plus inaccurate main battery(balance) and torps... let's have a homing option as well... and maybe a tractor beam?

And let's give it a hangar. SSDs have several hangars but we can't go overboard. Maybe the ship has hybrid mechanics?

 

Oh and AA... spitballing here: how about 19 flak clouds and 1970 DPS starting at 11km, mid-range 1986 DPS at 6.9km, close-range 1991 DPS at 5.2km. We can discuss the hitrates, but seems balanced overall. Gud AA support for team, just like the old days! 

 

Of course, since it's my ship only I would have it. Let's call it.. hmm... ''The Sinistar''

 

Perfection. Let's get to work. 

 

[Chaoskraehe]

A second IJN cruiser line and a Zao rework. 

 

And a second IJN BB line. In general more IJN ships please

Sounds perfectly balanced...

it could be a first-generation tractor beam - just to keep the enemy in place ... and disable repair and heal

[NewHorizons_1]

The unholy union of Belfast & Minotaur.

10x 152mm firing HE & AP every 2.8sec.

Smoke + Radar + Mino's Torp loadout.

Edit : + Hydro of couse, because why wouldn't you have it?

 

[Shirakami_Kon]

I'm a simple man I guess. Just give Mogami's 155mm guns 25-26 seconds turn time for the guns, like other light cruiser guns, honestly. Alternatively bring Suzuya here from WoWS Legends with that tweak without screwing any other stats for that "privilege" and you'd have a happy me.

That is just soft core ship porn 🤣

[ZygZag]

We need (at least I need) 2nd line of Japanese cruisers. WG made many SF ships, so what would be the problem? Use your imagination... My suggestion for Mogami II would be like this (actually named Kumano - but real Mogami class):

[lafeel]

Don't need to make up anything actually. Two animes have already done the job for me.

 

Of course it's a whole another matter if either the Mahoroba with her 15 51cm guns or the Yamato Takeru with her speed and agility worthy of a far smaller vessel than her (on screen quoted) 64k tons, but thats discussion for a another day.

 

Oh and the I-3000 with her fifty knot speed underwater and ten forward torpedo tubes..

[Nibenay78]

Something completely invisible to planes, while having 10 000 dps in a 15km radius while having ASW that insta-kills any sub within torpedo range.

 

The rest can be discussed at a later stage, I'm not looking for something OP you know 

[Karasu_Browarszky]

Well... since we don't seem to have any proper 'action' going on in the pre-dreadnaught/pre-WW1... or even WW1 era (it just doesn't feel legit any more on those 1-4 tiers any more, and you can't do the missions,.. and the queue times are murder too...)... I'd like something along the lines of 'fantasy' high tier versions of the early 20th century ships like the Mikasa, Iron Duke, Pam... er... or perhaps not those right now... Wouldn't be historically even as accurate as the low tier play but at least I'd get to play those ships a little more.

And on second thought, it wouldn't be good if only I had it. Kicking puppies all day would get boring. 

Let's put a Sinistar limit of one-per-team, maybe the centrepiece of a new flagship defense mode!

 

 

Run, weaklings. 

[1MajorKoenig]

 

The one and only „Falkenhayn“ of course :-)

 

…what else….

 

 

@Parasitkaffee / @Walther_K_Nehring

[Marblehead_1]

Something from minor factions/nations in game. Pan Europe, Commonwealth or Latin America but if I must choose one or two it will be:

 

TX 7 de Agosto:

3*II 120mm 1*IV TT

Halland built for Colombia with one turret more, lesser number of torpedo tubes and weaker AA

7 de Agosto in real life

French Speed boost and +300% def AA. Repair Party for such spam could be too much although as her torpedo armament is a joke so maybe 2 stock repairs could not be a problem .

 

[Parasitkaffee]

Wye you don't take a newer picture 😅

 

But I woud prefer the later Bülow design. 

 

 

But I also like the Erzherzog Ferdinand Max 

[Miscommunication_dept]

I want a battleship with Smolensk guns.

I'm kinda scared to ask, but how many?

[MoveZig]

Super-Elbing:

 

It takes up a cruiser slot so I'm not expected to go cap against actual DDs at the start.

Still no citadel, that's kinda the point.

Give it hydro in a separate slot.

Lengthen the hull to make room for an aircaft catapult.

Slightly higher detection range and even worse turning would be acceptable tradeoffs.

[GarrusBrutus]

Ragnar but with three turrets.

Imperial Star Destroyer, for exactly those reasons.
