 Woke up late due to a bad nights sleep (hot, then thunderstorm that pretty much turned to mist on hitting the ground.) so no real update today.

 quote:Current states  The battleship is fixed. January 1914  Welcome to the war lads.  We come up the the idea of ships that carry planes. It's madness I tell you!  We get to work cutting German supply lines.  Swarms of destroyers clash in the Baltic.  We flit around each other before the Germans get some hits in.  The water churns with torpedoes, but we are the one to take a hit.  Night comes and ranges close – we get a series of hits on a German destroyer, crippling her.  There are confused reports of heavier German ships as two of our destroyers take serious hits. With damage mounting I am forced to pull into port to preserve the destroyer force. The “CL” was last reported to be stationary.  We claim victory – but just.  Lots of information here. February 1914  Three more destroyers, and the raiders are doing well!  The British, not so much.  The destroyers go at it again.  A German ship loses speed and it set upon, but the Bodri in the lead takes hits from its friends.  We pin them against the coast, but it seems our damage is mounting.  Twilight arrives and we get a torpedo hit in. With ammo low I break contact.  Again we claim victory.  The Germans decide to rebuild one of their dreadnoughts in war time – and interesting choice. March 1914  More destroyers, more raiding.  The Germans run down and sink one of our raiders. April 1914  We get a look at the newest German battlecrusier.  The Germans sink one of our destroyers.  We get news that we are attacking a enemy convoy.  Oh God, someone let the Tsar out again.....

Finally, an answer to the age-old question of who would win in a battle between three dreadnoughts and a floating horse racing track

I'd guess our success at the destroyer fights is Grey's better handling of the fleet, the Podlivs are still real fast but they only have a pair of three inch guns and don't carry much by way of torpedoes compared to the newer ships. Though, frankly, they may be better set up for destroyer on destroyer battles since the new Bolshoy Igriz only has a single 2" cannon for chasing merchants/transports/surfaced subs. I also am slightly proud that my three selected ships so far comprise our modern destroyer fleet... and the Tsar's yacht. Feel like I'm showing real range in my designs. I hope the yacht survives long enough to be converted into a carrier, it'd actually be fairly good at that role given its size and speed and already having a flat area for things to land in.

I would like to Submit the Timing is Everything Rider (TIER) on the another 8 destroyers act; calling for new construction to be delayed until the Kaputnik and the Åsidosätta have cleared the docks. Those battleships are almost done and we need them in the fight, not sitting in the docks waiting to get shelled if the Germans launch an attack.

Proposing the Tsar's Holiday Act Whereas: The health and well being of the Tsar are vital to the well being of the country As God Himself has annointed our most Holy Tsar and commanded us to obey him, and that it is his responsibility and his alone to command the Empire, it's not too much to ask that he be given someplace to sip a mojito while relaxing on the beach every now and then. The other nations of the world got the good places while we were busy colonizing Siberia, a desolate wasteland that's only good for dumping political prisoners in and where the skiing isn't even that good. Therefore: The government shall, in peace negotiations with other countries and at other times, make it its primary goal to acquire overseas colonies.

Propose the Air is the Future act. While it may seem ridiculous that these bags of cloth and wire might one day be viable tools of war, there are those among us who see their true potential. Being ahead of the rest of the world in naval aviation may allow us to finally achieve true competitiveness with our wealthier and more powerful neighbors! This act consists of proposals. 1. Any/all research areas related to aviation (aircraft, aircraft carriers, airships, etc) are to be put on "high" priority. 2. At the discretion of the admiralty, any nation that shows an advantage in any naval aircraft technology shall have its espionage priority set on "high" such that we might...acquire their expertise. 3. If and when it becomes possible to convert or build an "aircraft carrier" that project shall immediately receive the highest possible priority. Its building shall be accelerated, and any other ongoing projects shall be put on hold, as required, to free up the necessary funds or facilities. 4. All airbases in the Baltic shall be built to their maximum capacity as it is practicable, at the discretion of the admiralty. The admiralty shall advise on how many airbases can be built, and at a future time, we shall discuss how many are to be for airships, and how many for aircraft. bewbies fucked around with this message at 16:27 on Jul 25, 2019 |

I think everyone should slow down a bit, it's only April and maybe we don't want to be complicating the war effort with yet more legislation only four months after our last legislative session.

Zip! posted:Yeah but on the other hand PLANES Ah yes, someone's napkin scribble about a flying toy; surely worth attracting the ire of other powerful, and technologically advanced Nations. I for one, can't wait to write letters to widows when our ill advised espionage campaign sparks a war with the two largest fleets in the world. I'll let them know it was all worth it, because we got a machine capable of lifting a single man into the heavens, for no discernable reason.

I would also like to propose Anarchy for thee, but not for me. In past wars we have been approached by anarchists and other rabble-rousers looking to stir up trouble among our enemies. While I share the Admiralty's distaste for these scum, I think that with the level of tension in Europe and the present conflict with Germany we must change tactics: While we are in a state of war we should give support to anarchists or any other rebel group looking to stir up trouble among our enemies. This Act will remain in effect until 1920. I am certain there is no possible way this can backfire on us.

Our peasants can't even read! No way that they can figure out what Bakunin was talking about- even the anarchists themselves are still squabbling over that!

Yes, and trying to claim differently is a good cause for a curative trip to the bracing environs of Novosibirsk.
