Austrian-Hungarian Ships

[FranzvonMayer]

Well, as an Austrian and defender of the monarchy and Austro-Hungarian union I must say that they should put Austro-Hungarian ships in the game.

Although K.u.K Krigsmarine is not the best, they could create a small, Technological Tree for our Country.

K.u.K. Krigesmarine was one of the most powerful of the Mediterranean and adding them would be, not only an opportunity to improve the focus on Ships of World War I as well as expand the Mediterranean scenery.

The Kaiserliche und Königliche Krigsmarine can be used for many purposes as well as the launching of the Focus on Ships of the Second World War and a few minor differences.

I really hope you consider my suggestion.

Thank you.

So what kind of whips will this tree consist of and how will it be filled all the way up to tier 10?

[Deamon93]

There might be premiums from them but I highly doubt a full line, at least not indepentently.

[SV_Kompresor]

It could easily be a full line with yugoslav ships.

Their battleships could easily go up to tier 6 (maybe even 7 with some fictional upgrades) and their destroyers to tier 4, with yugoslav destroyers filling the last few tiers. The cruisers however would be a bit of a problem though because they could only go up to tier 4 or so

[TheWhiteJack]

I doubt a full line will ever come although it would be intresting to see some premium ships! We are no where close to them atm tho

[Pekoe_Darjeeling]

It doesn't need to be full tree. I would still play those ships just for fun even If that would be like 5-7 ships in a tree.

[puxflacet]

you have to post some pictures of some of the beauties, otherwise you will not convince anyone

 

 

 

semi-dreadnought SMS Radetzky

 

 

 

pre-dreadnought SMS Erzherzog Ferdinand Max

 

 

 

pre-dreadnought SMS Babenberg

but as others said, there is no chance for tree because A-H ships wouldnt get further than tier 4 (tegetthoff class maybe to tier 5 with fictional upgrades). not to mention that there was just one dreadnought class of battleship, the rest were pre-dreadnoughts and i seriously doubt we ever see any other than mikasa in the game. only way are premiums or if there ever be some mixed european tree, but my bet is that there wont be more than two A-H ship in the game ever

EDIT: i completely forgot about never-built designs...maybe A-H battleships and battlecruisers could see even tier 6

Wouldnt those ships`be very outdated? But maybe somting for tier 2.

Warspite is from 1915 and is a tier 6

[Deamon93]

There could be Ersatz Monarch at V, possibly with a refit to improve AA(which was limited being a WWI design).

What to hope for is a pan-European tree to be able to put in various Spanish, Dutch, A-H, Yugoslavian, Polish, Swedish ships etc with captain training etc and ability to train captains in Premiums etc.

I would really like to see legendary SMS Szent István in the game. 

[SaxonHoliday]

WW1 ships are the game's equivalent of a tutorial, mostly. And since Austria-Hungary ceased to exist after WW1... yeah, no hope for a tech tree. We might see one or two premiums, but it is likely a very, very, very low priority.

[_DeathWing_]

And since Austria-Hungary ceased to exist after WW1... yeah, no hope for a tech tree.

 

Yeah, you have the point.

[Athelas72]

That would be an interesting idea to see some of the Monarchy ships in game. 

And since Austria-Hungary ceased to exist after WW1... yeah, no hope for a tech tree. 

I can agree with this point, but would be an interesting ide to make some mixed "nations" . For example starting with the Monarchy ships tier 1 to t4-5, then for t5/6 to t9/10 maybe some Yugoslavien ships ^^

I have no idea and didn't check the possibility of creating a mixed tech tree like this but it would be nice if can see yome of the above mentioned ships in game. 

I would really like to see legendary SMS Szent István in the game. 

 

Totally agree with you, If WG put the ship as a premium i'll definitly buy it 

 

[GeorgeT1012_gt]

I think it's all about some tier 2-6 premiums, as WWI ships don't have good AA guns. Still an intresting idea, I would love to see some of those ships, maybe there can be an event too! Defenatly not a full tech-tree,it would something like Pan-Asia.

[MoveZig]

This vid says Radetzky was an outdated, ill-conceived POS. We've yet to see a ship with mixed main gun calibers, probably not gonna happen. Either that or prepare for the mother of all secondary guns

yeah. probably wont ever see another ship with mixed caliber main armament (mikasa), but that's not just a case with radetzky...

and radetzky was not ill-conceived - most naval powers were building semi-dreadnoughts when dreadnought was launched (british King Edward VII and Lord Nelson; Russian Andrei Pervozvanny; Japanese Katori, Satsuma, and Kawachi, American Connecticut and Mississippi, French Danton, Italian Regina Elena) but yeah, a-h battleships tend to be a bit weaker than their contemporaries but that had reasons, mainly because of limited budget for naval ministry and also limited shipbuilding capacities. she actually had some resourceful features despite these limitations. and a-h certainly isnt the last navy to built their own dreadnought. france made their first dreadnought after a-h

... outdated yes, but that was every battleship after dreadnought was launched.

do not take conclusions from this video, because author does not see bigger perspective (gosh, he even says that hms dreadnought had impressive secondaries! she had literally none) he also relates problems of all pre-dreadnouts just to radetzky

[Drenkeling]

I think a separate Italian group of ships will be added first rather than an Austria-Hungary group. There is a pan-Asia group of ships, where non-Japanese ships are added. Perhaps there should be a pan-European group too. Ships from Austria-Hungary could be added in there. As well the sole Polish destroyer. Dutch, Greek and Swedish ships could fill the rest. 

 

 

[larslindskovbusch]

Lets not forget the all mighty Viking Longboats! i know they wont implant them, due to bieng too OP..

[BlueMoon51]

Back before the game was released one of the developers mentioned at some point that there was a hope there would be A-H content in the game eventually. It wasn't specified if it would be part of a pan-European branch or premium, for what it's worth my guess would be that we will never see a pan-Europen branch just a number of national premium ships(the fact that the Polish ship is listed as Polish and not European and yet the Perth is listed as Commonwealth and not Australian would lead me to believe that the latter is much more likely to happen than a European line.   

[kreischendeFruchtfliege]

It would be great to sail with Sms Tegetthoff trough the virtual sea of wows *-*,I think on tier 4, for example, it would be a nice ship.

For Example, the Arkansas has no AA too and it performs good enough even without AA (my mind) with her 12x 305mm guns,like the Tegetthoff can be perform.

Maybe it could be well to invert her on tier 4 for germany,so,some players could use it at least for training ship commanders instead of creating A_H as sepperate nation in the tech tree.

But I would buy it, if she,one of her sisterships or an other vessel of k.u.k. shipbuilding comes into the game .
