I think it would be good if we could have Scapa Flow added to the list of ports, especially when we finally get the RN added.

sure, I wouldn't mind a port with the feel/atmosphere of maybe North or Fault Line - the ones we have so far are both (as in, the old standard and premium ports) more on the tropical side of things (and then there's the special cases of NY, Yokosuka and Ocean)

That would be a great port.

 

And bonus: If you have drunken too much, you can search for the High Sea Fleet at the bottom/under water.

Or "Firth of Forth", with the huge cantilever bridge.

This is a much better eye candy wise than Scapa which while iconic would only be a little less boring than the Ocean port.

Scapa Flow is pretty boring! No trees and very flat! Rosyth or Portsmouth would be more interesting though the historical attraction of Scapa is obvious. What would be nice is to have all your ships moored around the ship chosen.

I agree. more ports would be nice. While they aren't a high priority, I am ll for it.

 

Other ideas for ports could be:

  • a Norwegian port, maybe Bergen or Trondheim. This could work a fjord style port with a winter theme. Could maybe be a night map with the Aurora.
  • the Truk Lagoon. Could be a port with a bunch of small pacific islands with multiple military installations. This could work as a better japanese style port than Yokosuka wich is not WW2 themed.
  • another one could be Wilhelmshaven or Kiel. This could maybe work as a bigger industrial port with sub pens in the background. Maybe the port could be more grey colors with maybe rain or something like that to give all port an individual look.

 

But yeh, more ports would be awsome, but it is a low priority.

Nice idea, but I have to disappoint you, during the wars (esp. the WWI) Scapa Flow looked like the Ocean port, as buildings were few.

Your right, but a few ships here and there and Torpedo nets and your done, I guess Plymouth would be another choice for the Brits, or for the Northern feel the Clyde was and still is a Big base.
