'Wasa' 1628 Swedish Warship, (With Plans)
Olof Cederström replied to Ned Loe's topic in Ships of the line
After I visited the Vasa museum last week I've changed my mind. It was clearly not designed and built properly as you stated, so I take back what I said earlier. Anyway, a tips to the devs, it'd might fit in NA for a aprils fools some year... -
'Konung Karl' Swedish 1st Rate, 108 Guns (1694)
Olof Cederström replied to Terminus's topic in Ships of the line
Yea, I saw that. I should've said the first three decker blueprint that was built, and not only proposed -
'Konung Karl' Swedish 1st Rate, 108 Guns (1694)
Olof Cederström replied to Terminus's topic in Ships of the line
You really deserve a medal for this find, Ponk! This is the only swedish three-decker blueprint that I've seen on the internet so far, and I've made a lot of research! Thank you! -
Player ship selection 1st half 2016 - Final Poll
Olof Cederström replied to Barberouge's topic in Shipyard
Well, I'm going to lay my vote on Wasa and cross my fingers... "Du skall svara mig inför Gud, om du stryker flagg!" ("You shall answer me before God, if you surrender!") Captain Horn af Rantzien, final words to Lieutenant Lagerstråle onboard HMS Wasa, during the battle of Hogland. -
Player ship selection 1st half 2016 - Final Poll
Olof Cederström replied to Barberouge's topic in Shipyard
Haha, will Diana win the second place with 0,68 % more votes than Venus (and Wasa)? A really close call if you ask me. -
Letter of Marque issued by Swedish King to DRUNK
Olof Cederström replied to Nordtman's topic in National news
Hm... "Carl XIII" with Carl XII's signature? Something isn't right here... https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charles_XII_of_Sweden -
Well, since we haven't found any blueprint of her yet, it is almost impossible to make a proper 3D model of her. And by the way, regarding the name, her original name is actually "Stora Cronan". Which I think would be the correct name for her if she ever gets added into the game.

Flags, Ensigns, Banners
Olof Cederström replied to admin's topic in Current Feature Improvement Suggestions
Yes, that's correct Malachi. In game right now, the swedish flag is really the swedish civil flag with our police emblem on, which I think is really weird... The correct naval flag would be the one that Norbi shows up there, "örlogsflaggan". I hope the devs fix this soon. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_flags_of_Sweden EDIT: The flags seems to be right now. Ignore my reply -
'Friheten' Swedish 4th rate 1728 60 guns (With Plans)
Olof Cederström replied to Ned Loe's topic in Ships of the line
Yea, the sources are really pointing towards Friheten. -
'Friheten' Swedish 4th rate 1728 60 guns (With Plans)
Olof Cederström replied to Ned Loe's topic in Ships of the line
It's swedish indeed. A rough translation of the text in the bottom right is: "...The amirality has ordered 14 June 1728, to make a blueprint of a man-of-war with 60 cannons, after the dimensions of the ship(?) A.Brehmen ....150 foot long, 39 foot wide...Karlscrona (Karlskrona) 25 June 1728." I'm going to make some more research but I'm not sure if this ship was ever made though. I don't recognize any name. -
Worst, most FAILED, Historic Battle in this era
Olof Cederström replied to Ligatorswe's topic in Tavern
HMS Kronan also carried 3-36 pounds bronze cannons. But something I found funny is that they could only fire the largest pieces 6-8 times an hour because of the heat in the bronze. They had to use water to cool them down. -
Player ship selection 1st half 2016 - Final Poll
Olof Cederström replied to Barberouge's topic in Shipyard
Yes, and it's not entirely impossible for someone to make a second account to lay a vote more on the prefered ship... So, it'd be very unfair in my opinion if one ship won over another with just a few votes. But I guess rules are rules. -
Swedish frigates Bellona and Hekate
Olof Cederström replied to Malachi's topic in Frigates and similar ships
Yeah, right. As you probably know, this would be the correct naval flag for Sweden: (Mid 1600-1815) Very good job anyway with the ship Malachi! -
Swedish frigates Bellona and Hekate
Olof Cederström replied to Malachi's topic in Frigates and similar ships
Ah, right. It'd be a shame if it doesn't get added then. -
Swedish frigates Bellona and Hekate
Olof Cederström replied to Malachi's topic in Frigates and similar ships
Wow! Really great job man! I only got a litte question, are you a dev or are you just building for fun? You don't have the staff title here on the forum so I just don't really understand.
