Has there been any discussion as to introducing a Pan-American line of vessels representing the other navies of North, Central and South America besides the current United States and Canada vessels?

Hey Kraayt - Here you go - Latin American Tree.  This was a post from last year where the OP filled out a Pan-American DD tree w/ possible candidates - (I appreciated his attention to history, thought this type of line would be a good candidate and replied to it).

It doesn't address Canadian vessels, but does cover South/Central American candidates in the discussion.

Agincourt is in no way tier V and VI material. She's long, has poor armour, has WWI era guns and shells and no AA to speak of, she's a tier IV.

You sure 14 12" guns running around in tier 4 would be a good idea? If anything, WG could always slap some fictional upgrades to bring up the AA from the stock hull.

Yes I am sure, that's only two more rifles than Wyoming, given her size and poor armour in comparison there shouldn't be a problem. WG can always tweak soft stats if it does prove to be an issue. She'd have a large healthpool with a glass jaw and a long citadel. On top of that I think Agincourt should come as a premium for the Royal Navy given the fact that it's the only navy she ever served with (and that she participated at Jutland) and WG has already said that Premiums in WoWS generally represent a specific time period in the career of the ship so a fictional AA suite is a no-go. Fictional modifications for real ships should be avoided wherever possible in my opinion.

Yes in fact a Brooklyn class Argentine ship is in testing.

As the last gun cruiser in the world is set to retire in South America I bet it will be a Pan American Cruiser line first then maybe a BB line later.

You won't because she never served in a South American navy, even if she was originally ordered by one.

While true; South American navies did have many ships more significant than destroyers.

Depending on how loosely WG wanted to play with timelines, Argentina and Brazil could even provide a hypothetical Pan South American branch with carriers.

You just described the Lyons.  WGing can find a way.
