LukeFF · 02-17-08, 06:37 AM

A post by elanaiba over at Ubi here inspired me to start this thread. So far, we know of the following:

-Ships:

Graf Spee heavy cruiser
Type IXD-2 U-boat
Type XVIII U-boat

-Aircraft:

Bristol Beaufighter

Any more we know of yet?

Would love to know more about the upcoming addon, but apart from what you posted, and a few screenies, I can't find anything.

If there were a way to mod the Lanc to Brit markings, I'd do it in a heartbeat

The Lancaster has brit markings when flown by the RAF and associates.

Here is a link that does show it in game:

I do remember seeing a Electro in the water next to a japanese carrier group screenshot also if I recall correctly.

It's not the XXI but the Type XVIII, off of which the XXI was ultimately designed.

(In essence, though, it could be the XXI. I imagine it won't take someone long to clone it and give it XXI performance characteristics).

Yep, it does.

So, what other ships and aircraft are we getting, Dan?

elanaiba · 02-18-08, 02:04 PM

As with SH4, I ain't gonna put out the list since half the fun is discovering them.

Okay, okay...

Can you just say if there's a lot more coming that what's listed in my first post?

elanaiba · 02-19-08, 04:02 AM

Good, good!

Have should been fine to implement US Task Forces in order of trying to track and engage them with the german subs.Also more traffic on the ports would be welcome.

How do you figure this will work? Be given orders to set sail from France, head toward the Indian Ocean, then treat Singapore as your home base for the rest of the game?

Didn't think too many U-Boats did that.
