New Base
« on: October 11, 2010, 08:14:03 PM »
Maybe we could have a battleship base.(1 base per country) The battleship base could provide 1 battleship and the battleship could be used for long ranged shelling, escorting ,and intercepting an enemy fleet.
Some battleship options:
South Dakota
Kongo
Prince Of Whales
Resolution
(shells 13-20" shells)
All need 8000lb to sink(opinion)

And maybe after 10 mins after the battleship has spawned, a "pocket battleship" would spawn at the battleship port.
Pocket battleship options:
Duetchland
Alaska
(11-13 inch)
6000lb to sink

Just what we need - Battleships. The ability to fire a projectile that weighs more than Volkswagen in excess of 30 miles.

oh, in your reading your original post - you mentioned 13-20" shells...

Pray tell, what WW2 battleships had 13" or 20" guns?

14", 15", 16", or 18" - those are your choices.

US Fast Battleships carried 16"/50 cal (Iowa) and 16"/45 (SoDak & Washington)
KGV Class (Prince of Whales, KGV, Anson and Howe were all the same class), 14"/45
Kongo (and her sisters Kirishima, Hiei, and Haruna) 14"/45
Yamato - 18" guns

If you're lucky enough to get a US Battleship, in one single vessel you carry more AA guns than an entire CV group. Add to that the DDs required to protect it, and you have a virtually indestructible wall of ack.

Sorry - nope.

If you want to wish for a useful ship to add to the game, ask for an LST.

That's where the Showboat was! So much AA they thought she was on fire when she opened up!
