Nice job, nice shots. If you hit 'Return' between each picture they will render vertically rather than horizontally, and the viewer won't need to scroll sideways to see them.

Is this playable or AI-controlled? Either way, you might want to show this to the "Wolves of the Kaiser" guys.

both AI and career-playable as always

All of his imperial German navy ships are for axis side. And also jhapprich can you also make some playable WW1 German U-boats?

Both work pretty well. The only bug I spotted with the Helgoland was crew members on the deck wandering overboard. The Emden on the other hand has a bug where the guns will fire through the hull and superstructure, which lets Emden direct much more firepower at a target than she should be able to.

I also had a thought regarding the Emden. It might be a good idea to add a second version of it with extra AA guns. I know that's not historically accurate, but since this is a WWII game I think it would be useful for gameplay purposes, since you can't crash dive when a plane comes after you. 3 AA guns just isn't enough.

yes, since i havent finished the firing restrictions for the gun mounts, they can shoot at any direction. the aa guns on emden are crap indeed, they will be replaced by the appropriate anti-torpedo gunnery which will play the AA role. furthermore, especially the emden model as well as the gun aren`t smoothed yet and the AO has to be rebaked.
