In all seriousness though i would be happy with any late war r class as long as Britain actually got one, it doesn’t have to be royal sovereign, but one of her sisters as long as they are equal is an acceptable compromise

That would be her 1943 configuration, the final refit Royal Sovereign underwent. Owing to her relatively bad condition, it was later decided to decommission the ship in mid-44. That’s actually part of why she was selected to be transferred to the Soviet Union, as she was in excess of the RN’s needs and in no condition for continued frontline service.

Sadly for Royal Sovereign, the ship’s already terrible condition only worsened during her Soviet service. The ship was inspected in 1949 and found to be completely unusable, so she was never actually recommissioned. Instead, it was stripped for parts and sold for scrap on 18 May 1949. Interestingly, the Soviets actually petitioned the RN to keep the ship for whatever reason prior to her return, though they later backed off and instead kept her bell.

Yeah, I don’t think Britain should get the same ship of R class(maybe later at some point), there’s multiple other options to add

Still, that would be better than aa on ships like Malborough.

It’s shame that we don’t have Warspite yet.
WT mobile has it for like over a year now.

You may as well piss into the wind with all the use the 4x 4" AA guns on the Marlborough would do. Its not a very high bar for decent AA compared to the other TT ships.

Not the same name wise but the same configuration wise, just so they can use the readily available model that they already have, with the amount of copy paste this update its only logical

I dont really use the forums very often so idk the procedure here but is there any chance we could get some sort of official response to all of this

Don’t remind me that mobile is leaps and bounds ahead of PC :'(((

Well ive gone and asked smin directly, so all we can do now is wait

So bad news if we want to get a british r class we have to grind russia, but the same didn’t apply when it was italy

Actual bullshit


For context italy and russia got cavours in the same update and in the update before that italy got cavour in a refit that never even happened

This wasn’t all that long ago either

Smin already denied it since Rodney is coming.

I know, im the one who asked him

Well that’s disappointing to say the least, but not surprising considering how inconsistent Gaijin is.

Well, other than giving japan capital ships it seems
