GWX2.0 or 2.1

Here is some info on the Black Swan class.

You might care to post a screenshot and an accompanying date.

I'm only able to find the Black Swan class.

<EDIT> Never mind, I've just checked the British folder and it would appear a comprehensive list of unit names is included (including the improved class).

Checking the games library, you should notice that the weapons loadout changes to represent improvements at the war prohressed.

Not too big a deal I'd hope you agree.....you could always tweak the folder yourself if it's a game killer. http://www.psionguild.org/forums/images/smilies/wolfsmilies/thumbsup.gif

I assume the 'k-guns' are the sideways depthcharge launchers, what's so evil about them? A DC is a DC, tight?

The k-gun can project the depth charge beyond the ships immediate area...a bit like a sideways firing hedgehog if you like....it allows the escort to cover a wider pattern area.

Yeah but still I don't dread them too much, I could be wrong though. However, I feel I'll be crying like a little girl once I'll stumble upon those goddamn 'water mortars' :nope:
