Developer comment: The arrival of the Giulio Cesare (already present in the game as the Novorossiysk in the USSR tech tree) marks a shift in our approach to adding new ships. Previously, our policy was to include each ship in only one specific configuration; if a vessel had undergone multiple refits, only one version would make it into the game. Since this rule sometimes prevented the inclusion of highly interesting configurations, we decided to revise our approach. Until now, Italy was the only nation in the game without a top-tier premium ship, and the Giulio Cesare, in its original Italian configuration, is the perfect fit for this role.

damn i was too slow

Gulf War Iowa

people like you really confuse other forum members - always talk about 60 degrees LOS as thats what source documents always claim (except british lmao - there is still people coping about their rounds because of that)

[SPANISH_AVENGER]

Interesting!

I believe it’s a good thing that the developers decided to revise their approach. The less limitations, the more options.

Honestly; if the Romas had a… workable rate of fire, I would be interested in grinding them. However, 1 round per minute is just… not for me, hahah.

IF, however, there was to be a Premium King George V Class, though… I’ve already expressed interest on it :P

I know G.B already has Nelson, but again, its slower than average reload is a deal breaker for me.

Naval suggestions will undoubtly be going crazy.

Nah, next Iowa Class should be Missouri, with its improved armor!

In my opinion, the 60 degree LOS values are tremendously confusing.

It doesn’t matter what documents claim, as well, since Gaijin uses only Lanz Odermatt and discards any and all documents, so I figured it’s clearer to go by such values instead.

[TheMightySardine]

Called it. Now give me 1945 Nagato

[ErrantAlgae]

in all honesty I am just waiting for the PG-02 to get its missiles back, they were at least visually there on launch, and it only had 2 anyway

[SPANISH_AVENGER]

YES!

WW2 Nagato being locked as a Premium while the tree is limited to a 1920s Mutsu is an aberration.

Late WW2 Nagato would unironically be better than Yamato and Musashi, gameplay wise, seeing how these two ships are still as ridiculously vulnerable as they are.

[efetenekeci]

Artevelde to French tree when?

[TheMightySardine]

They are doing this only to add even more slop into the trees so now in future instead of single Iowa,you gonna have to grind through 3 different Iowas all for 400k RP, where one is current 1945 one,next one is Korean era and last one is the one with CIWS and Tomahawks.

[Rennie1018129-live]

If this is the case where is that revenge class, “its possible in the future” isnt gonna cut it anymore sorry

[urmom_xD]

@Pipimer Averof in all of it’s configurations soon?

[SPANISH_AVENGER]

I believe this Dev Blog confirms this leak list as true!

COME ON, DUKE OF YORK!

I wonder if Infantry is for THIS major update, or later. If it is, then… Duke of York may have to wait xD (depending on the infantry pack price tags. If it’s 6 bucks, I’m getting both!)

@TheMightySardine

They could have done that regardless, there 's four of them and we only have one atm.

[Ace_of_LuftWaffe]

It’s not like Germany lacks WW2 Jet prototypes to be added… I genuinely just pray it comes with the gun pod.

This doesn’t change anything really for the Revenge Class, as the Arkhangelsk / Royal Sovereign wasn’t the only Revenge Class anyway and other ships of the class remain possible too. As we already mentioned, Britain has had other ships planned.

[StormRyder13]

And with that event announcement, there is no reason to care about the year decals, as the next one will be all unobtainium vehicles following Gaijin’s patterns.

Removing the rule of adding a ship under one name/configuration is a good move, and I look forward to seeing other ships harmed by it added.

[ErrantAlgae]

if the inf packs are low enough I will sell my R400 and CRV
