114 [DFEND] SomemuttupNorth Members 287 posts 5,802 battles Report post #4 Posted September 15, 2017 As the others have said, there are some already there- Hood and Kongo and Amagi. Personally, I'd like to see some of the early RN ones- like Invincible or the Splendid Cats- or a Lexington BC Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

66 [HARU] Highblooded Beta Testers 117 posts 6,445 battles Report post #16 Posted September 15, 2017 They are what I want most in the whole game. Gimme.. gimme.. gimme! In fact I would like them to add two more tiers to accommodate more vessels from WW1. Drop a new tier in at 3.5(for early war-prewar stuff) and another at 4.5(late war).

No not really. The German von der Tann battlecruiser is widely accepted to have been a much more successful design than her British equivalents. At Jutland the von der Tann became involved in a duel with the British battlecruiser Indefatigable. The duel began at 3:49pm, and at 4:03, after taking five 11.1in hits, the Indefatigable exploded. It is generally accepted that flash from one of the German hits reached her magazine. The von der Tann was hit four times herself. And here she is, an incredibly beautiful ship: 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The closest we have is the Ishizushi, wich i like a lot but its a paper ship. Kongo is the battleship reffit. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
2,886 [HINON] Doomlock Privateers, Privateers 6,800 posts 5,017 battles Report post #21 Posted September 15, 2017 Kongō as we see her in game is in her fast battleship form. She used to have as her A-hull her battle cruiser form, but that has since been removed. Other battlecruisers though are, Myōgi, Ishizuchi, Amagi, and Hood.

Warspite isnt a battlecruiser, its a super dreadnought,i think, it might just be a normal dreadnought, but i know for a FACT its not a battlecruiser Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
