I love to Command the USS Cincinnati (cl)

Bremer, M.D.

Leadership: 57

Inspiration: 78

Ok if the Italian navy will not be present[&:] how about the American Zepplins, Shenandoah, Macon, Akron and Los Angeles. I would prefer the Akron or Macon since they have aircraft as well.

I can just picture a TF full of posters from this BBS.

The TF commander would give a command and from every ship in the TF would get complaints and bytching and "Why cant I upgrade my ship ?' comments.

Since Oklahoma is taken:
BB Nevada
Howell, T.P.
Inspiration: 45 Leadership: 51

He has low self confidence [:D]

top idea
No body has gone for commonwealth ships yet I would like
HMAS Australia BC
Name Hamilton P D
65 and 60

failing that put me down for any commonwealth ship please

Nope, you got her.

Beckman, R. R.

How about the cancelled USS Iowa BB-53 if she is in the game.

Leadership 72 - What to do with your free time if your an engineer from Iowa but study leadership
Inspiration 42 - who wants to follow an engineer from Iowa???????[:D]

If she's not in the game, any US battleship will do.

Heyho, Tanker!

I'll take anything, as long as is not Japanese. My name would clash I'd think.[:)]

I have a strong urge to make you CO of the "Ain't Scared O' Nothin!" [:D]

Sure! I'll make sure she has plenty of beer, junk food and fireworks on board. Still laugh when I remember passing through that "South of the Border" redneck park on the NC/SC border. Was talking to some kids who said it was not fair that fireworks were legal in SC and not in NC. Guess they lived in NC.[:D]

No worries. I'm a redneck, or so my friends say because I'm politically incorrect. Apparently the definition of redneck is different in such a poof town like Ottawa. I don't shoot squirrels, let alone eat them, but I like to think I'm one.

I'm going to grab a big can of Holsten Festbock now.

I have command of the HMS Repulse.

Right, I got your stats down.

Ok, that's all who posted. More are welcome to apply. Just check and make sure the ship you want isn't taken.

I want to be a captain! My last name is Crunch. [:'(]

Give me your name in the WitP format, Leadership and inspirations skills, and the name of the ship you want to con.

I don't think I'm going to go for a battleship, of course. I'd be Japanese, but my last name won't fit.

USS Albany (CL-23) (it was stationed near China in the 1910s, I believe)
Vetrovec, D K Leadership 49, Inspiration 59

If you want to be a Japanese, even with your name, that is cool. But, if its the Albany you want, you can have her.

Funny thing, The Albany and her sister New Orleans were about the only non-US built ships to see service in that era. The were built in Britain for Spain, but purchased just before the Spanish American War, then re armed with US gun right before WWI. Good choice!

Cool, I'll take a battalion or two of M1917's and give them japs hell til you fellas can drag them big ol' cannons half way around the world. [:D][:D][:D]

Luckily I got one in the back yard to get us started.
