I was particularly interested in seeing if they put in the South Dakota Class. This is because my grandfather served on the USS South Dakota. He served from the the start of the war, and stood with his ship, until the wars end. He wasn't a gunner or a naval officer, but in my opinion he had the most important job on the ship, putting out the fires. I can only assume that November 11, 1942 was the craziest night of his life. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/USS_South_Dakota_%28BB-57%29. When i saw the battleship line I saw many classes i was familiar with e.x. North Carolina and New Mexico, but sadly there was no South Dakota class. I would love for them to implement this ship, and to proudly play and sail upon the same ship that my grandfather served. LONG LIVE BATTLESHIP "X" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

There are dozens of concepts in that book which WG can use. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
