United States had 15 ships of the line in total, either planned or built. The USS Pennsylvania was the last. I'm talking about all the others.

Prater Posted November 12, 2015 Share Posted November 12, 2015 In my opinion we should stay away from US lineships until all other in-game nations are nearly fleshed out. Once at that point add them in. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maturin Posted November 13, 2015 Share Posted November 13, 2015 On what grounds? Because virtually any other SoL is more significant, historically speaking. The American ships never saw action, or really had anything to do with the game's other vessels or historical context. There are dozens of other SoLs to choose from, all with illustrious service records and important design innovations, all more deserving. More importantly, the core concept for Naval Action is a "beautiful" Age of Sail combat game. For the American SoLs to be included they must: 1) not be hideous barges and 2) not harm gameplay balance by being OP. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Haratik Posted November 13, 2015 Share Posted November 13, 2015 I take it you haven't done your research on some of the American ships of the line then. It surely sounds like you haven't. There were several that fit your specifications (as if we were going by those specifications LOL). I'm down for choosing other ships of the line over the Americans, so long as they're from nations OTHER than the ones already represented (ruling out Britain, France, Spain, and Russia).Cheers!

Arvenski Posted November 19, 2015 Share Posted November 19, 2015 Out of curiosity, why did all these threads get their names altered? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteelSandwich Posted November 19, 2015 Share Posted November 19, 2015 (edited) Part of the shipyard section overhaul that is happening. Currently im updating the summary of ship plans presented so far. That will be combined with the removal of outdated threads.

Ned Loe Posted November 19, 2015 Share Posted November 19, 2015 Out of curiosity, why did all these threads get their names altered? NA - Naval Action tag added to keep pinned posts more organized. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arvenski Posted November 19, 2015 Share Posted November 19, 2015 I figured out that NA meant Naval Action (), but I guess I'm wondering why that tag is needed. I mean, we're in the Naval Action section of the forum; it'd be odd if a thread here wasn't Naval Action-related. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteelSandwich Posted November 19, 2015 Share Posted November 19, 2015 to make them stand out from regular posts a bit more. I mean, pinned is the same lay-out as poll... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LeBoiteux Posted November 20, 2015 Share Posted November 20, 2015 Very disappointed by the sudden destruction of my WIP thread about French Corvettes in the Shipyard Section and its scattering in a big plan deposit thread without any notice and insight into its future (despite proper PM to the entitled moderator). I can’t keep on contributing about Corvettes as I planned, in good conditions. These uncivilized methods don’t encourage me to make any further contributions (and posts) to, at least, the Shipyard forum, if not to any NA forums… 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope you are not a primadonna Someone made a mistake merging topics instead of putting them into national subforums they are not lost ps even deleted posts can be restored. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Surcouf Posted November 20, 2015 Share Posted November 20, 2015 It would indeed be good to restore this topic. Le Boiteux contributed much to present the French corvettes, especially the privateers. Thank you in advance if you can restore it 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Henry d'Esterre Darby Posted November 20, 2015 Share Posted November 20, 2015 We're working on restoring those topics as we can. Expect to see them re-appear over the next several days. Let's get back to discussing cool ships to add to the game. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sella Posted November 29, 2015 Share Posted November 29, 2015 It seems that after the shipyard section reconstruction,some links that lead to the info thread of each ship don't work.Since we can't edit our posts anymore could a mod fix that? Thanks 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Henry d'Esterre Darby Posted December 3, 2015 Share Posted December 3, 2015 (edited) Possibly, but I'd need very detailed examples that include the post, the particular link in question, and the new, correct link. This is why it's best, if you're posting in a voting thread, not to link to another post, but to include all relevant images, etc in the post itself. This allows people to see your suggestion without having to click to another post - which will garner you more votes (since, by definition, people on the internet are lazy and often won't click links). Edit: I was provided with some posts that were damaged as part of the recent forum merges - I have fixed those. Thanks to Sella22 for the heads up and getting the details to me!

dynd Posted January 2, 2016 Share Posted January 2, 2016 I do hope the wildcard voting is between the lesser populated nations. If most votes win it'll most definitely be an English or US ship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
