7 Yankeegunner Beta Testers 9 posts 147 battles Report post #1 Posted April 17, 2015 I have been looking around the forums and haven't seen a good guide for ship silhouettes. Was wondering if there were guides to visual identification already out there. Only thing I've been able to find with Google is a couple of WW II ship ID Guides, which may or may not be applicable. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And I remember reading that the collector's edition had a printed manual full of the ships. The main problem is a lot of the ships in-game for WOWS were experimental, so they wouldn't be on it.

Hehe I remember thumbing through the Silent Hunter ID book fast as I could. That was a fun game back then, peaceful and relaxing. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
