And another question:
This is one for the Grognards -
Which warship am I?
1. I do not have a counter in WIF or any of its add ons, however, you could easily make the case for including one (I am bigger than a destroyer).

Neither.
This tank destroyer was actually intended to replace StuG III but during the battle of Kursk StuG III performed better than Pz IV so the StuG remained in production alongside this TD.

No. The Elefant is somewhat bigger. See attached picture on that monster.
Edit: In this case a picture of an elefant brought down.[;)]

Of course it must be the liner Britannia. [;)]
A Swedish ship with such a magnificent name deserve to be present in WIF.

AFV's are not my speciality so I'll leave that one to someone else.....but in the meantime, I will ask another question to run alongside yours Orm.
The evacuation of the BEF was called Operation Dynamo. Where did the name Dynamo come from?
Essentially, it's something that spins an armature rapidly through a magnetic field to produce power. Maxwell is ultimately responsible.

Clue: The naming of the operation has something to do with the headquarters from which it was directed.

Okay, next clue.
Which warship am I?
1. I do not have a counter in WIF or any of its add ons, however, you could easily make the case for including one (I am bigger than a destroyer).
2. If ADG did give me a counter, I would be likely to start 1939 scenarios in the construction pool; for the same reason as USS Wyoming. Alternatively I could start on map - but would have suitably reduced factors.....

This makes me think of either Edison (Menlo Park) or Nobel (Scandinavian, wasn't he?), but I don't know how that could have anything to do with the BEF [:(]

I may be getting confused here, but are you from the series of BBs that was to be refit in the Iowa series, but got cancelled after the first four?

The choice of Dynamo has nothing to do with any individual.
BTW: I think Nobel was Norwegian.

No, Alfred Nobel was from Sweden (born in Stockholm).
One of the prizes , the peace price, is awarded in Oslo, Norway. The rest is awarded in Stockholm. When Alfred Nobel died Sweden and Norway was in a union.
