WPO modders' paradise

[Rysyonok]

After a prolonged desperate search for merchant ship shapes of WPO era I ran into this link on WitP forum:

www.history-on-cdrom.com

And for $20 I'm now a proud owner of a set of these

Granted, it's not that much. And it's mostly WW2-related. Still, it's more than elsewhere on the web.

Awesome! ... and just half price of WPO itself, but this could be easily "fixed". They do have a plenty of nice looking crafts... Hmmm, why did they put them on different CDs? [&:] [:'(] [:D]

To make more money, of course. I only got a teaser to be able to sketch something for new Cautionaries - the real thing for IJN merchants is 1300 ships and $30 =)

I'm not sure to understand what you are looking for but do you know theses books?

Conway's All the World's Fighting Ships 1922-1946

and

The World's Merchant Fleets, 1939: The Particulars and Wartime Fates of 6,000 Ships

[Rysyonok]

I have it
 
As for the second book, how easy can that 1939 data be applied to 1922 setting?

Thanks

[ClaudeJ]

The datas inside the second book can be usefull since it list merchant fleets active in 1939 but some of these ships were build from ages ago, so somes were already there in 1922.

Anyway, hope it helps
