Any American surface combat ships yet ?

[John W. Hamm]

Yesterday was the day...of days... SH4 took a turn for the surface!!!
We now have Japanese and German Combat surface ships!!!
But the americans have an oiler (Not to down grade the oiler at all hell it's the one I've been playing the most) I took a stab at making the Fletcher but something just didn't come out right:hmm: So I sent the file to Mikhayl to review what i did wrong. However would any one else like to try to make a Surface DD for the Americans!! that would rock

I was thinking more along the lines of a pensacola class heavy cruiser so we can have some convoy escort missions where the CA and DD's face off against the Panzerschiff

Cruiser Destoyer either one, I would prefer either of those over a BB (not tha I don't eventially want a BB) but for the purpose of the Game and the crew size that we have at our disposal I felt the DD was the closest match

Let's say that a light cruiser is the correct size. But the Iowa class is a must have.

But remember that in a game focused on the hunt for cargo ships and convoys, the best ship type you can use is a merchant raider.

Can not agree!
I made a Iowa for myself for cruising a lil bit but thats so boring...
No real enemies, no action(just hearing the gun firing!

But when I did some tests with a Fletcher I was very stimulated
You GOT some real enemies, you are very fast and it is good compatible with this sub game (crew management, damage reports, weapons...)

better types in my oppinion:
Elco and Fletcher/Somers

Well then we agree that is exactly what I said

Let me be Stimulated Too!!

I have been trying to create one without success, but clearly as you just stated you have done it...? so would you please release it so I can use it!!!

I wonder if four propellers would actually move, since a sub only has two in the game.
