Palace to Nowhere Act The admiralty is prohibited from agreeing to divert any further funds to palace or yacht construction until the completion of our two new battleships.

what's the highest level of lighter than air research?

BBs, BattleBlimps, but their size makes them hard to justify since they can only effectively mount up to 16" guns.

Nay Nay Nay Nay Far East Rebasing - Aye I like the idea of expanding airbases, but those acts make me nervous that they're going to be interpreted as building airbases literally everywhere and bankrupting us, like what happened with the submarines.

The thing is airbases are actually very useful. They're definitely something to consider when we're not building 3 BBs.

Night10194 posted:The thing is airbases are actually very useful. They're definitely something to consider when we're not building 3 BBs. Though I'm mostly voting out of a sense of spite and Mahan, I'd love to see an effort-post about the cost/benefit to airbases. How much they tend to run, when you want blimps vs. regular planes, how many you can fit in a region, how to run them without breaking your budget as the second cheapest nation in the world, etc. It'd be helpful in deciding how to vote aside from my current rule of thumb of: Before 1935? All battleships/battlecruisers/heavy cruisers. After 1935? All carriers/AA Battlebarges/destroyers.

The only thing cheaper than airbases are coastal submarines, torpedo boats, and corvettes. They also build up pretty fast but it takes a while for their squadrons to fill up with planes.

Yes to MTBs, no to the rest. I have never actually seen a MTB spawn or do anything in either this game or RTW1. Ever.

I uh, may have gone a little bankrupt in some of my early playthroughs from going all in on planes

January 1925 quote:The ( . )( . ) Motorboat Act Moterboats are ordered. We crush the Rebels and keep the peace with Britain. A new model of our flying boats go out. Austria continues to prepare for war. February 1925 They are defiantly pushing for their light fleet. March 1925 Some of their ships are being commissioned as well. April 1925 And scrap the Potemkins? Hell no! Firstly, we had triple turrets? Secondly Why have we been making our ships out of flammable materials? That explains a lot! The expected war begins. No fights to begin with. I activate the fleet and set trade protection. May 1925 Oh boy! That's a lot of subs that convoy system is going to be tested! Time to see what the new ships are up to! The recon planes take to the air. This will be a different kind of war! The recon ships spot the enemy. They guide the Grom in. We begin to range in on them. But we can't catch them it turns into a long, boring chase until darkness comes. The Austrians continue to lay down destroyers. June 1925 France pushes us to far! Our subs seem to be better at their jobs. The Grom is out with our two seaplane carriers. A Battlecrusier great. We get the first hits in though. It only has 8.5 armour, so we have a good chance of taking it out. We score hit after hit. They hit us once. Our accuracy far outstrips theirs. But my god do they hit hard. Night comes and we are able to disengage. Well, this balances the books! Ahh, victory. Just....

Nearly losing to a CA with a BC is one of the most Austria-Hungary moves possible. Up there with having over 40 subs and not managing to sink a single merchant.

Pretty sure lots of them are coastal subs, and thus in the Mediterranean, so they do very little to nothing against a power with no colonies or access there. Getting improved triples is a big deal though, makes 9 / 10 / 12 gun ships that can go fast and/ or have armor possible. Infidelicious fucked around with this message at 15:01 on Oct 3, 2019 |
