Thank you, now the American Navy is awesome

the new USA small Battleship hull could be made larger then, because it allows us to also build the later ships like Mississippi and and Connecticut, because it supports the dual 8in wing turrets, though it does lack hull casemates, but all i could really see is that

Alright well that makes sense, it would be awesome to build them but if it breaks the game I get it.

Ok, but FYI the US did actually mount dual 8in turrets above the main turrets for Kearsarge and Virginia, it affected the rate of fire for virginia and made both ships top heavy but it was done lol.

Any plans to add the ability of US MK 1 and 2 12 and 13in turrents to allow the mounting of 8in turrents above them so we can make Kearsarge and Virgina classes. the Logic seems to exist for the Brittish turrets with the 2in guns. Or Costal Battleship to mount a single 12in per barbette place aka the USS Texas 1895

Convert from JSON back to BIN is broken and I've deleted everything in C:\Users\candle\AppData\LocalLow\Game Labs\Ultimate Admiral Dreadnoughts as well as from D:\SteamLibrary\steamapps\common\Ultimate Admiral Dreadnoughts did not fix it, the function does not work, it was working with update 5

So Modernized Dreadnought 3 for USA no longer allows the mounting of guns on the forward built in barbette, tried 9-16 none can mount to it now.

I agree it's kind of what Sid Meier's Civilization does, you go far enough it gives you a score and you can just keep playing anyway for the lols

historically the Revenge class weighed 29,590 tons to the Colorado's 32,600, and in a fight Colorado hits harder given its advantage in guns of 16/45 vs 15/42 and the Historical fact that American's also used heavier shells than the Brits. American ships once the Standard's got going didn't really save a much weight vs the brittish, more so they dind't build them for speed. American planners decided that when the British went to 23/24knots that a 21knot battle line could still turn inside the Brittish line and it wasn't needed so they kept them short and fat, which i think is well represented here.

consider this Earth II, i mean we don't have planes this is obviously not our world

It fits the US strategy they built short fat ships upto and right after WW1 focusing on firepower and armor, not speed which right now you can fit 6x3 12in, 5x3 14in, 4x3 16in turrents, I don't seem them lacking in firepower at all. And honestly I'm thrilled these hulls are finally in game. Now I can build every class from South Carolina - Iowa, and being able to make delware-Texas is awesome. The only thing we really miss now is pre Dreadnought USA hulls.

finally a new hull for America, we can make something close to the Deleware's - New York's now, the hull can even do a close idea of the Wyoming class, how awesome.

I've asked for it before I'd like to see a start at 1870, with early turret ships

I do agree, I want to be fighting with dreadnaughts in 2990, after waging a 1000year war. Like another famous game said, War, War never changes.

One Thing I'd really like to see added is realism settings, lets say you want to play without having defects, while this can be fun for more realisim, it can also be very unfun at times. Same goes for other things, a realism slider would be great.
