Guest Guest 0 posts Report post #4 Posted February 27, 2020 Sub Octavian in a recent Q&A stated that WG currently has no plans to implement Russian CVs. Which from a standpoint of interesting paper designs which the Soviets developed, is disappointing. But I'm sure others among you will rejoice. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

To be honest I would rather see ships that were at least ordered meaning a full engineering workup was done for them which would give us two Italian CV's, the Aquila, and the Sparviero and several German attempts that were never completed that a line could be built around.

While I look forward to the Italian and German cv tech trees, the Soviets did design a sufficient number of CVs (which never progressed beyond blueprint stage) to create a paper tech tree (not fake, paper). This is more than can be said about the Soviet BB tech tree (which required some fakes due to a lack of beer mats). I do believe the Soviets are over represented in the game, given too much end game importance relative to their historical and cultural presence, but their ships are very pretty designs, and I like CVs. So that's my argument, essentially, CVs are pretty, Soviet CV designs look cool, I want/ also, Sub_Octavian has stated that the next CV tech tree will be an "Axis" state. Therefore either Germany, Italy or technically not excluded by his statement, Japan. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But that was a really good, weak-sister, incredibly lame attempt at making it seem like the Russians actually had a functioning navy during the times this game takes place, LOL!!

Never claimed it to be a functioning CV just as the Graf Zeppelin never was a functioning CV, Tho I think everyone will admit the Germans and the Japanese like everyone else did a better job on that and everything else than the Russians ever have Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

My point was they came late to that ship type and still have few. Any RU CV tree would be pure paper. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

As long as it is tech tree, I have no concerns. Russian dds are not considered OP, neither are Russian tech tree cruisers, nor many of their bbs (cough* ok Kremlin..). I'd be more worried if devs decided the US CV fanbase needed another cookie premium CV. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
