Hello and Merry Christmas!

May I suggest a WW1 light cruiser? There were several classes used by the British navy douring WW2. And maybe HMS Warspite based on Revenge class? Basically, there only some alternations on the bridge needed.

Of course I know that all the modders are very busy with all these masterpieces that they make all the time!!

Generic Merchant "A". It's heavily based on a ship that Subsim user Xeidos2 was going to include in his now-defunct WWI U-Boat game: http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/showthread.php?t=87244

This vessel will be very common, since practically all seafaring nations used small steamers like this one around the outbreak of the war. The text amidships is correct on both sides of the hull, since it is printed on a modified deckhouse for the parent unit (Liberty Ship).

I'd like to try a "Warspite or a WWi light cruiser but I'm still trying to learn how to model warships properly. The cruiser I built earlier had some inaccuracies with the rigging, etc; these need to be fixed before it's released.

I do hope that when your merchant mod comes out iambecomelife that the GW team will incorporate them..they are simply to beautiful to pass by.

I definitely second that CW

It would be great to have these ships in the supermods - one thing I'm trying to resolve before relase is internal zoning, especially for tankers - the engine rooms for them need to be moved astern from the standard midships position. Based on what I've heard the new mods have very good sinking models and it would be best if these vessels had the most accurate sinking behavior possible in order to fit in...

This is Generic Tanker 7. It will only be assigned to the UK. Based on the "San Gerardo", "San Florentino", "San Fabian", "Cadillac", "Saranac", and additional tankers of 12,000 - 13,000 tons that were built during or shortly after WWI. The paint scheme shown is for Eagle Oil.

Generic Tanker 4. It's in a British paint scheme in the screenshots but it will be assigned to many nations (UK, US, Germany, Italy, Japan, USSR, Norway, Denmark, Netherlands, Panama, Spain, and Sweden). Tonnage is 5500 - 6000.

Ah something else to look forward to, this game and it's mod community is just so great.

I'm fast running out of drool waiting for Mr Becomelife's ship mods
