Hello! I'm pleased to see you're visiting Captain Fishlord's Playable Ship Shipyard. We plan to invest in the high seas during this time of war. From the Conte Verde to the Sampan, we will have any civilian ship you could ask for.
What about military ships? you may ask. Well, I must reply that as of now we have ceased our construction of Northampton Class cruisers for the USN, but plan to reexpand into the war profiteer business again as soon as possible.
First up in line to be commissioned will be the SS Conte Verde. You will fly the flag of the Imperial Merchant Marine as you heroically do the drudge work of hauling depressed troops to and from island ports.
Soon after will be the SS Conte Rosso, of the same class, and you will carry freight (as well as the most distinguished persons in the West) all around the civilized world, from Buenos Aires, to Sydney, to New York, to San Francisco and the Golden Gate.
We also project building a series of small vessels to carry citizens in Steerage quarters, aboard dirty, smelly, cramped freighters and oilers. Such a ship would include but not be limited to: The British Medium Oil Tanker, the Medium Old Oiler, and the Modern Split Composite Freighter.
In any of the above instances, and many more, you will also be given the option, as captain, whether or not to be given assignments to war zones. Should you desire we will also arm your vessel, free of charge, according to your specifications.
(^^^^^Basic, overly dramatic phrasing of the fact that I will be making the Conte Verde and the T3 Fleet Tanker playable. Send in suggestions for additional ships, if they aren't too hard, I'll make them. Be aware warships will take longer and likely be not quite as functional as a submarine, but ALL passenger and freight vessels will have customized missions to fit their actual experience.)
(If you think I'm crazy, just say it)
