    My Father took her out on her Maiden voyage. Proved to be a very mean boat in Treaty. Looking forward for a G3 in the not so distant future

    Yet another Glaizyards rapid build. I have no idea how you are able to get ships combat ready so fast. You must have a lot of slave labor at the slips.

    I was able to attend the battle in Xenia a couple weeks ago.
    I do not remember being sunk though.
    Generally. If there is no photos, or video of my boats sinking, then I don't always remember sinking.
    It sounds like someone is spreading rumors about me again.

    Nice post Dustin. Looks like a fine example of propaganda to me. Haha.
    I have more photos, but have been too busy trying to get my boats ready for the battle next weekend to load them up.
    I will post more and catch up on all of the threads after the battle.

    There is talk of building the big Russian battleship as well. Probably later on this year.
    I am not sure that it is better looking than the battlecruiser. But it would indeed be very interesting to see it.

    Shinano, Bismarck, Tirpitz, Bart, Richelieu, Bearn, Bearn II, Bearn III, Lutzow, Dunkirque, Cavour, Golo, Hawaii, HMS Rodney, Those are the ones I can remember of the top of my head, but there where two more close to the other end of the pond, maybe one of the Denmarck straights ships, a pair of the inexperience skippers were palling around on the other side of the pond.
