RN Roma: City at Sea

No, it was briefly mentioned in one of my books as far I can remember, but I never looked further into it as I was looking for more real data at that time.

Maybe the Ansaldo archive still has something in their main office ( as many documents are still only in phisical form, waiting to be digitalized ).

Also, is the triple rudder modelled in the game?
What about the pugliese system?

The Roma entered service already equipped with radar from what I know, the littorio instead only in 43 received the final version of the owl radar

Nope



All picture of Roma, without Gupo radar.

Actually, it is more hard to find picture of Roma with Gupo radar

Pugliese is present ever since Cavour.

Yes but in the game it doesn’t work, if I’m not mistaken it says tank, instead for the owl radar I apologise I thought that since its birth it had that technology,
But the fact that it is written (1943) does it mean that they will put another version??

Not at right now, as Gaijin currently stands on ‘one ship, one version’ standard.
So 1943 version Roma exist mean that there will be no 1942 Roma or something.

However, leaving aside my little knowledge, I believe that this ship deserves better, as Taffu92 has been demonstrating for a long time and with excellent explanations, at the moment it is underperforming and I understand how the gaijin says that she will control the game statistics and they don’t understand that no one is playing it because it completely sucks, precision, recharge, and then ships like the sovyeski which was just an empty hull, is the strongest ship in the game… this game becomes frustrating and it makes me nervous how the gaijin always doesn’t care about these things, always adding new vehicles instead of improving and correcting the existing ones

Which is a bit sad as it means, as for now, that we’ll never see the fleet leader Duca degli Abruzzi with its pletra of american 40mm intead of the old 20 and 37mm. ( or other refits of DDs, cruisers and such already in game )

I hope they’ll change this in the future at least for minor nations that can’t have a ton of ships due to production limits ( like Italy and France ) and already feel a bit lacking compared to other nations.

Honestly such thing, if it potentially doesn’t change the br, could be adjustable by modifications, although I don’t like when the addition of the ship to one nation blocks the possibility to receive this ship represented in service of another nation, like multiple war trophies USSR has for example.
I still hate the fact that USSR gets Letuchiy, would love to see both Romanian Regele Ferdinand and Regia Maria in the Italian TT in different configurations.
