WW2 Unit Graphics

[Tanelorn]

Trunctuated the Nevada to the Mississipi class as the Kilkis (and its sister ship, Lemnos)

and the Averof armored cruiser, while we're at it:

plus the Elli light cruiser:

P.S. Gareth, do Reggia Marina, per favore..?

Note to self: The UK built, Greek Vasilefs Georgios class (2 ships, 2 more scheduled) and the single Royal Yugoslav Dubrovnic destroyer leaders were based on the RN H class, though having German and Czech guns instead.
7 H class were delivered to Argentina pre-war and another 6 Brazilian ones were taken over by the RN. A US gun armed variant class was produced by Brazil post-war.
One of the Greek ships was bombed, then taken over by the Nazis as the Hermes. Vasilissa Olga escaped to Alexandria and fought on until it was sunk in 43. These were replaced by one E and one B class destroyer during the war, along with 9 Hunt class destroyer escorts. The Dubrovnic was captured by the Italians and then by the Germans in turn.
Turkey ordered 4 RN I class destroyer leaders. Two were taken by the RN in 41-42, two were delivered to the Turks in 42 and one of the former was returned to Turkey in 46.
H and I classes directly preceeded the Tribal class and look practically identical.

The HMS Furious was the other carrier (besides Ark Royal) in the Home Fleet in June 1940. Is it the same class as your HMS Glorious?

 

[Fairline]

Here's the Dido CL AA and Furious carrier Tech. Furious , Glorious and Courageous were all near-sister ships converted from WW1 BC / large cruisers. Furious had a much smaller superstructure than the other two, with no vertical funnel.

Nice work Tim. I am going to post the Italian ships - just need to squeeze Littorio into a ToT slot.

 

[CurtSibling]

Groovy work, gents!

 

[Broken_Erika]

A Few more...

Love the blue van Erika

Here's the Italian ships Tanelorn:

Incredible units

 

[techumseh]

Thanks very much! I think my units file is now complete with 4 possible exceptions. I hope I can impose on you for these: a landing barge (converted Dutch river barge), a schwimmpanzer (Pz II), tauchpanzer (Pz III), and a flampanzer (Pz II). Not necessary, but maybe fun would be a Renault UE Chenillette - a captured French armoured tractor based on the Renault 17 chassis that the Germans planned to use to mechanize their first wave.

 

[Fairline]

I have some of those already I think in Open General form. I'll stick them in ToT unit slots and post.

Update to the German navy to incluse the Graf Zeppelin CV

 

[Tanelorn]

Who remembers playing the "Bitter Sea" scenario? It is one of my all time favourites. A full ToT roster is what I see.
Thank you Gareth for all your hard work.

Note to self: The Soviet Kirov/ Chapayev cruiser classes were licensed versions of the Giussano (aka the first batch Condottieri) class. One (Eugenio di Savoia) was transferred to Greece post war, as reparation for the Elli, above. One (Duca d'Aosta) was transferred to the USSR.
The Littorio BB influenced Stalin's Sovetsky Soyuz battleships that were laid down pre-war but never completed.

 

[Fairline]

Well I have two of them anyway - the flammpanzer II and Pz III als Tauchpanzer (and a Pz IV als Tauchpanzer). I'll make the others.

Why don't you post your units file and I'll update with latest versions of stuff I've updated more recently.

EDIT: Do you mean Case's 'Cruel Sea' scenario T? I am currently updating the units for it - hence all the crap I'm posting here

 

[techumseh]

Many thanks. Graf Zeppelin will be a welcome and unexpected addition. The advantage of doing a "what if" scenario is that you can always add more "what ifs"! Units file will be up shortly.

Units file so far:

Yay! It's the Germans Floating Lumber Warehouse!

Here's some tweaks and additions Tech.

Your units file has a mix of 2 different magenta base colours - the wrong one can show up in game sometimes so I've replaced all the base colours with the correct one. I've tweaked the Home Guard, Commando, various ships including a new graphic for an R class BB, added newer versions of arty, planes and tanks.

Are you setting this scenario in 1940? If so I'd replace the Daimler ac with a CS9 armoured car, the 6-pdr AT with a 2-pdr, the 25-pdr needs to lose its 1941 muzzle break (Jesus, how anal am I? ), and the Marder and Grille should be replaced with JgsPz I and Bison. All these are included if you want to use them. Otherwise feel free to ignore my pedantry!

Are those power line tower-thingies there beside the pillbox, or something that superficially resembles them, out of curiosity?

Radar Towers?

 

[techumseh]

Radar towers, yes.

 

[techumseh]

G. - thanks so much. I will incorporate the units you suggest. I'll add the schwimmpanzer and the invasion barge when you post them as well. Then I'm done.
