Should my next build be the Casablanca class escort carrier from wwll?
@Inuyasha8215 is there anyone who still has the map mod?
Woah woah nice!
@1VirtualRealityConversion i had one on it but had to get rid of it due to many problems
F35 time 😈
@llDeadboyll The Nimitz in the thumbnail was a map mod. I don't know why but the creator of the mod deleted it.
@Itzarock and that thing with the aircraft, i found a way that would work with even more than 8 or 9 planes. the only limit is how much my pc can hndle it of course
@Itzarock could you upload the Nimitz class in picture 1? that would be totally awesome. and Yeah, i think you should make the casablanca class next. would be cool. i like your builds
@NormalPeople404 i tried putting one but i couldnt get to work properly. thats why the weapons on it work to compensate for the missing aircraft
Where the plane?, Or helicopter?
@TheCommentaryGuy ikr
Why is a boat makin an island?
