They played a division of Tirpitz battleships and there were some minor information about it.

 

1.  Fast turning turrets for a battleship.  They're not insanely fast, but good for battleship.

2.  25 second reload speed on the guns.  This is 2.4 rounds per minute.

3.  Torpedoes on the Tirpitz that the Bismark won't have, 6km range.  This isn't news for most, but I put it in for completionist sake.

WGNA rep said Tirpitiz will not be sold in August in stream chat, but they didn't give a ETA when it will be on sale. My guess is sometime in September before the rest German line get released in October.

The Maltese Cross wasn't and is not a Nazi symbol. It dates back to the Middle Ages to European monarchies.

I believe the plan is for the German cruiser line to come out first, maybe September or Octorber, and then the rest of the German ships a month later.

 

Not sure if they're going to have a full list of carriers, but it sounds like they will.

Which is precisely why it's being used, so they don't have to localize a skin specifically for the German and Austrian market.

Shipcomrade.com gave a good idea of what the German CV line may be. Quite interesting with many variations to what the tree may turn out as.

4.  Psuedo Nazi flag.  A red banner with black/white cross bars, and instead of the swastika in the center white circle they have the Maltese "iron" cross.  This is faily common, but the reason is that the Nazi flag is illegal in Germany and they don't want to lose that country as customer.

 

The flag was an addon mod that you can get here in the mods or art section. its a red white and black flag that comes stock with it. You just saw a mod.

I prefer the WW-1 navy German Imperial flag myself.

 

I edited the post to remove that flag comment.  There isn't any point if it was a 3rd party mod.
