Valiant, Malaya, and Barham are free for the taking.

Malaya would be great if you had room...Henderson, J 70/70...(you already arranged Warspite for Roskill for me...)

Thnx

Hartford

BTW..your "name your commander" idea is just great. Others should try the same...weirdly satisfactory!

Yep, you've got her. I apologize for not posting the list, but I am trying to finish up my end of the things, plus get the recognition manual done. I'll try and post a list, but I might not be able to. Some times there should be 25 hours in a day, ya know?

Wow.. hmm... what kind of ship is USS Borie anyway? I can't remember what kind of ship i asked myself to be assigned to, but seems like it isn't anything spectacular.

*sigh* .. i guess getting reassigned to any of the QE class BB's would be out of the question.. i'd love seeing myself on the bridge of HMS Valiant, with my newfound love for the royal navy and all. [8D]

Hi,
Just read the thread regarding ships commanders names and was disappointed to see Gowans, R.J. was no longer in command of HMS VALIANT. I had asked for this ship some months back and was told OK ship had been allocated.
Can you confirm Gowans R.J. still has HMS VALIANT.
Cheers RJG.

Is the USS Illinois in the game? I know she was classified as a training ship in 1921 but I don't think she was fully demilitarized until late in the decade.

If she is available I would like her.

She is in the OOB, but doesn't appear in any of the scenarios.

What I will do though is add your name in to the OOB in the first patch (trying to put the gold candidate together now), and then your name will be selectable. If we hit another bug I'll add it in with the fix, but I don't think we'll hit one before release.

Hi Tanker, is it too late to request a Childress, G. R., any ship, any rank, any leadership value. In fact would you be able to make my ship a large AK stationed in San Francisco? Then I could convert it into various auxiliaries! [:)]

Thankyou!

It is too late for the first release, but I have no problem adding them in with the first post release patches/scenario additions.
