I was wondering about this "fantasy" scenario:

Let's say the German High Seas Fleet was not scuttled at Scapa Flow, and the victorious Allies divided up the spoils. Result: even more juicy ships can be added, and in a balanced manner...

Just thinking out loud.

I was always curious about the capabilities of those Geramn ships. (I know they are short ranged, but what the hey!) Uboats, too! OMIGOD!! (Faints)

Well, hehe, I already thought of that. While it won't be in the initial relesease, I have in fact considered it. For a time, I actually though of giving the Japanese the Helgoland, which they were ceeded by the treaty of Versailles to scrap.

Oh, and don't read too much into it, but here is something Im already toying with as something for a new WPO scenario to add in after release. Take a guess what they are:

Guessing only, and this is shooting from the hip as I "rush" to answer:

The first one is a toughy. With it being so "tumblehome", it looks really old. Might be some protected cruiser, but that's a pretty big WAG.

The bottom looks like a US Predreadnought of the Indiana or Iowa class without cage masts...

Please tell me you deleted all those hideous cage masts...

Are you doing a Spanish-American war scenario?

I tossed around the idea. The first one is the Protected Cruiser Olympia, in the scheme she wore at Manila Bay. The Second is the Oregon (Indiana) with the scheme she wore at Santiago.

I want to try and do a Manila Bay scenario (all one or 2 days of it) and a Tsushima scenario, but Im not sure how WitP could handle it

And what do you mean hideous cage masts? You prefer tripods instead? [:D]

Abso-freakin-lutely!

Here's a good looking ship, and the tripods don't detract from the appearance:

Well, since you seem to have a fondness for the Tiger, want to con her in War Plan Orange (since you want a leader spot)?

Please oh please oh please oh please oh please oh please![&o][&o][&o]
