Next Major Update - Rumor Round-Up & Discussion (Part 1)

Remember, the initial build of County Class didn’t even have Exocet Missiles. The original build had 2 turrets of 2x 4.5in guns (like those on the Daring). Sea Slug wouldn’t be a brilliant missile but it’d be better than nothing.

Worst comes to worst we could skip to Sea Dart

I have seen people say less intelligent things seriously in the past here, so I just operate under the assumption that everything is serious unless it has been made obviously clear prior.

Whats funny is that is barely a 5.0 worthy ship :D Even with the SAMs

I could probably make you a good tech tree. Its been a long time cuz ive stopped hardly playing the game after the M1A2 SEPv2 debacle and the absolute contempt shown for the playerbase, but i cut my teeth on making nation suggestions on the old forum (I was the OG LatAm tech tree guy).

Daring (which is 3 of those turrets, plus 10 torpedo tubes and some 40mm AA) is 4.7. You’d be lucky to get it past 5.0. No doubt Gaijin will make it 5.3 because County Class = Kotlin with SA-3 stuck on the back.

Mind you, Mark 2 Sea Slug would be quite good by missile standards right now. Maximum range is 32km, max speed is 1,300mph+. Warhead on the Mk1 is a 90kg HE warhead, proximity fused, and Mk2 is a Continuous Rod, armed by IR Proximity.

I wouldn’t mind seeing other takes as for suggestions we currently have Thatz’s ground one

And I’ve been working on the Air tree. (I’d be done already if it wasn’t for the fact the photos and specs are hard to come by for some of them, even more as it is an obscure Canadian-built variant of some British or American plane. Ironically the plane I thought would have been the hardest to fine info on was one of the easest.)

Would be a lovely addition. Also this thing:


With the seacat missiles:

And of course admiral belgrano would be epic.

Yeah, kinda sad that it’s only feature as a recon vehicle is being nerf.

And also i did some picture editing, the commander sight is stuck at -10 and +20 if I did it correctly (supposed to be -20 and +30)

Well then, we ask is it the mast that is making QN506 OP or there is a complimentary weapon that can be used when the commander mast extended?

Pretty sure RCV main role is as reconnaissance and does not have ATM.

Isnt that just USS Helena?

Brooklyn Class Cruiser iirc. But uh, yeah.

My bone to pick with Seacat is they’re essentially useless. To my knowledge, no proximity fuse (Stormer HVM flashbacks), 5,500 yard range (on the optimistic side) and eyeball guided.

Hence my (almost concerning) obsession with the County Class. Given where we’re at in Naval, that would, imo, be the best suited and most balanced addition whilst not being outright DOA.

My first J-10A game started off strong with a blue screen.
Tzeentch at work, duh.

Phoenix. Argentina added modern radar and sea cat missiles.
Where would she go is the question. US or Germany?

To be honest. I vote neither.

Neither nation needs it at the moment and would be better to save it if/when we get a LATAM tree/sub-tree.

It just sank in me…

Why has Gaijin given Japan two 410mm-armed Battleships before giving U.S a single 406mm-armed one? :/

The “balance” part goes off the window when you consider than the 2x Japanese BBs armed with 410mm guns also reload these in 25 seconds, while the American Battleship armed with 406mm guns wouldstill take 40 seconds to reload- so it’s not like it would be OP compared to what they’ve been giving Japan or anything.

I was grinding USS Tennessee, until I realised… it’s just a much-better-looking Arizona with slightly higher penetration. Given the current state of shell rooms, I am not sure it’s even worth the grind.

There is really no reason to add any new nations, they should focus on what we already have

What is stopping them from adding the Iowa would it even be that good

Britain and especially France and italy need BBs that equal that which US, Japan and germany already have. We simply dont have anything all that good at top at the moment.

Once us 3 have gotten something… better… Then they could probably start looking at even more modern BBs.

@Rileyy3437 Will know how something like Iowa would fit with options for other nations

I think they added the j10 for it to be power crept by December update stuff

Yugoslavia would like to have a word with you.
