for naval to be used in the mode you would need to add a way of aiming to a designated grid square using the map similar to how the target designator works for air with the red square
shore bombardment would be awesome for the mode
similar to desert storm with IOWAs and WW2 with dreadnoughts like texas or WW1 with british ships

this is how im guessing they would implement naval into the mode

I think its the opposite more like they are hinting at missiles ships having a heavier presence there. So far they havent said anything about ww2 for that mode. They seem to mainly focus it for post war and modern days

i doubt that missile cruisers are going in that soon since we cant even balance the ones we have also we the only missile ships we have ingame are sams for most part and not everyone has even one of those yet
How would we battleship player intercept nukes though?
they dont thats the planes job the battleships are there to destroy AI ground and sea targets aswell as other player ships and clear a path way for freindly AIs
imagine its going to be similar to how the battle groups worked in iraq for the navy

it will be nice if we can play the aircraft carrier and launch as many jet as possible, while also letting other players spawn on it.
Well yeah in the post it literally states “longer term” as in in the far future.
Right now there is no mention of a ww2 era of this mode. Current ships would be vulnerable to the post war jets and there air to ground weapons. Which is why i strongly believe they are hinting at post war missile ships.
except they arent if there in a task force

and we havent even gotten subs yet so i very highly doubt well be seeing any new ships like Ticonderoga’s that would be 2-3 years away that would be like saying the F22 would be in the mode cause its coming in a few years that would be way to early of a announcement
and most of the anti ship weaponary cant really hurt a battleship the best weapon ingame for sinking a battle ship is a GBU which you would have to get through the escorts first
also he mentions 60s to 70s coming which multiple countrys had battle ships till the 60s or late 50s
I get the idea, the framework is there for objective based gameplay but you’d probably want something different from Nuclear Escalation as it currently is.
in the time infantry has been in development we could have had 9-10 different modes for naval and ground and air but gaijin ofcourse has zero clue what player base wants
biggest waste of resources ive seen ever zero need to make a infantry mode when enlisted exists
battle stations pacfic has better naval modes than warthunder and world warships and its a XBOX 360 Game that released in 2009
