Requested for different WWII scenarios. The name is self-explanatory I guess.
It uses the Battleships animations.

Thanks to asioasioasio for his help with certain aspects, and to Firaxis because I only used a slightly modified version of their default battleship for the texture..

This certainly may look like the default battleship, mainly because the default battleship was styled off the Iowa, though there is differences.

Now I just need to wait for Wolfshanze to come and tell me all I missed. :lol:

The Iowa is the bottom ship on the left and the bottom one on the right.
 
I am glad you like it, it was you who requested it, half a year or so ago.. :p

Anyways, WWI, oh, :lol: That will be fixed.. Note that I did not say they were that far a long, just that someone requested it. :mischief:

Hehe... no... I wouldn't do that... I might say it might be the least-needed model, seeing as how Firaxis obviously modeled the default BB after the Iowa, and to the untrained eye, there's very little differance.

Maybe scarce design-time could be better-spent on more needed models like a proper U-Boat or something... ahem... cough, cough.

Having said all that... I think your model looks nothing like the USS Iowa...

Now if you actually made a USS Iowa model (Pre-Dreadnought), that would be something we could use.

Hehe... :lol:
 
Haha, VERY funny, don't you see the smokestacks? They are both round!

I do understand it was not really needed, but hey, it was fun doing it, and there is also a lot of trained eyes abounding also.. And yes, yes, yes, u-boats will come.. I better put one on my list so I will remember though, any specific model?

Gauis, wow, that image is something else. I can hardly wait to try that scenario.. ;)

I do hope they don't serve fatty foods on that battleship...
Just grog and hard tack so.. ;)

The U-Boat Type VIIC is the most ubiquitous U-Boat of the German navy and would make a fine example... unlike that default Firaxis Sub which really needs to lay-off the fatty foods.

Elegant... yet deadly...

Very nice GM. I'll ban Geo later for taking my position.

Can I plead his case? He has been one of m best encouragers. :( ;)

Wolfshanze, Perfect, thanks. That will be it.
 
Hey snafusmith, enough teasers from you, give us the units ;)

You still have a bunch of older units to post too :D

GeneralMatt : nice unit, looking forward to more of your ships ;)
 
For you, Wolfshanze:

It might not be the Type 7 WW2 sub you want, but it's not far off...

Nice work on the BB Matt!

Thank you, on two accounts. One for doing the sub, two for the compliment!

Yes, I think we all are in agreement there, there is a lot of his stuff we just cannot do without. ;)

And thanks for the compliments also..

Sorry for all the teasers, most of the shots I show are works in progress. The U-31 is for the WW1 mod, and is a model only - it'll getting custom animations and sounds. The other stuff, well, it's not all 100% done. I do try and post what I can, but I've been traveling a lot and work is busy. I'll try and get some more out today.
