Thanks Hitman! I'm glad you like it.
The end result can of course look different, since I need to work on the resolution and performance.
Cheers!

I'm busy coding the campaign module at the moment. Not really screenshot material.
In the mean while I'll share this clip of the new water:

I updated the first page with some more relevant information.

Battleship Command: Scharnhorst is a naval warfare simulator that puts you in the captains chair onboard a battleship of the Scharhorst class.
You will battle warships, chase merchants and fight off torpedo bombers.
Using radar, optical rangefinders and the fire control computer.
You will use rudders and the engine order telegraph or climb down to the boiler rooms yourself and mixture with the oil and feedwater flow.

That was about the battle module. With the campaign module you will play out the strategic war and navigate the atlantic in a dynamic campaign.
You can use the onboard reconnaissance planes or communicate with the uboat fleet to hunt your prey and disrupt the enemies supply lines.

looking good! if i have some funds free i will have to visit your patreon and support you - i would really like to see this one come to fruition - scharnhorst is my favorite and playing the Battle of North Cape with your sim would be cool if that will be possible

Thanks agathosdaimon!
Yes, the battle of the north cape will be possible to simulate!


Thanks, any support will be welcomed. If you would like to sponsor with some of your art work, I would be forever thankful!

you know, i actually am making a picture of the Scharnhorst. so you can use that for sure - i have alot on atm but i will try to get it done soon when i can

i am donating to you on patreon now, though being somewhat poor myself i cant do alot

Thanks agathosdaimon!!

That's very generous and it will help me in many ways to complete this project!

As stated on the Patreon page you get to name destroyer, let me know when you have a suggestion.

Hopefully I will soon have a newer demo available for supporters aswell.
Keep an eye on the Patreon page for exclusive news for patrons.

awesome! i think i would have to name it after one of my favorite German poets - Friedrich Hölderlin - of course in reality i would hate if the Nazis named such a vessel after such a transcendent soul, but this is a game and obviously all a bit of fun, focussed more on naval actions of course!

Nice choice!

I can easily put the name on a brittish destroyer if you would prefer that?

Thats not a bad idea, but i think just leave it as German - if you want to have a british destroyer named by me also - call one the George Orwell :)

Here is some work in progress:

And here she finally sits ingame, in all her untextured and undetailed glory!
Can you tell which class it is regardles of the lack of detail?

well i am not an expert on all the classes but my first thought is was Bayern class is - just with that design on the side that i have seen before i think in World of Warships

It's actually a Brittish class of ships, launched around the same time period as the Bayern.

is it Warspite?

Correct!!

Queen Elizabeth class battleship. I'm using Hms Warspite as a reference for this model.

were there other elizabeth class ships in the atlantic theatre? warspite was in the mediterranean wasnt it ? (i was playing the old simulations canada game Fleet Med today, playing as warspite in the calabria scenario)

Warspite had an important role in the battles for Norway in may 1940. Then she spent most of her time in the med until D-day when she was part of the bombardment force.

Hms Malaya had an encounter with the Scharnhorst sisters in the south atlantic, but there was no battle.

ah right, - great i look forward to trying a demo of it where there is a ship to fight against!


will you make the Admiral Hipper too, - have some other Kriegsmarine ships one can form a task force with, even if its not the case that it can be commanded, i would still love to see it in the game.
