[WIP] Wolves of the Kaiser:1914-1918 Mod

[iambecomelife]

Leave my girls alone!!!

Never fear; these heads were indeed derived all from a male crewmember, but should be replaced in the final mod by ... ahem... appropriate faces.

I will check out that face modeling software soon.

It's a sweet little tool once you play with it some.
You'll need to resize the head and run a poly reduction on it though.
Balancer nPro lite does a fantastic job on poly reduction.
I use an object scaleing program to do a quick resize.
I can post you a link if you'd like a copy.

All I can say is wait and see... Although I think you'll be pleasantly surprised.

Wondering if you guys would be opposed to minor changes to service entry for subs? For instance, making the U-Cruisers enter service in maybe late 1917 so you can enjoy a slightly longer career than was historically possible. I think that's a permissible "bending" of History - no super weapons or WWII tech, just a slight change.

Any thoughts?

[CCIP]

I think that's a good idea. Much like the XXIs in SH3, I'm not opposed to it as long as the subs themselves are reasonably modeled. A lot of these subs would've already been in commission anyway, just not in war service. I'd also find it neat if there was an option to start in the Baltic first and do a training/shakedown patrol before combat duty!

[Hitman]

I agree but only just enough to be able to have a taste how what could have been. Like CCIP says, they were probably already in comission, so they could potentially have been used much more.

I disagree on the Type XXI though, as it was a much different and superior weapon. But the U-Cruisers were not much different of the existing subs, just with longer range and ammo stores.

[Admiral Halsey]

I agree with the others in regards to minor entry service date changes.

Well, I used both programs and I'm impressed so far. Human beings are not at all my forte, but everything is self explanatory. I used two photographs to replace the female heads posted earlier (see below). Not great, but meh. And my sincere apologies to all fans of a certain British TV series (bonus if you get the reference.)

Nearly a thousand rounds worth of ammo for them if Wikipedia is correct.

Do you or can you get drawings for Italian ships? Please look at this thread for the ones I plan on doing http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/showthread.php?t=219098, any would be of great help as I have not tracked down many of any use. Hull lines are most helpful.

[Kapitain Oliver Leinkraunt]

Yes Leadtail, these are the ships of your list

Benedetto Brin class (regina margerita)

Conte di Cavour class

Liguria (Umbria)class light cruiser

Pisa class battle cruiser

Giuseppe Garibaldi class battle cruiser
the destroyers aren't ready yet
