[LHI] IJN Asashimo

12.3k TemporaryReplacement  17 days ago

(thank you all for 10k internet points btw)

Original build here

”Escort” version (multiple spawnable at once) here

  • The Defensive warships series hopes to make killing AI warship targets with aircraft 10x harder. (and fun) All ships have a semi-realistic AA complement, with guns that all have semi-realistic ranges, muzzle velocities, firing arcs, and etc.
  • (wiki)
    Asashimo ("Morning Frost") was a Yugumo-class destroyer of the Imperial Japanese Navy. She was among the several ships sunk during Operation Ten-Go by attacking US aircraft in 1945.

    @Jaspy190 might just be another bug that has to do with the site being updated, like when upvotes disappeared for a bit?

    @Jaspy190 I’m honestly so confused, apparently the tags worked for the past 2 or 3 posts, and now it’s broken again?

    @ShiroNeko larger ships like cruisers, battleships, and carriers are already planned (and built, HMS Warspite should be the next post for example) but surface combat is something I’ll focus on later, as I’m not exactly sure how to approach it yet

    Do you plan on creating surface combat-focused modified ships, as well as larger vessels in the future?

    @TheUltimatePlaneLover I believe the USS Atlanta would technically count as a dedicated AA warship, which luckily is already planned

    @TemporaryReplacement ngl I kind of wanna see what happens if we get a dedicated AA ship since the first defensive tank (which I’m going to start making right now) will be made for AA

    @TheUltimatePlaneLover Just wait until I start getting to the aircraft carriers and battleships with copious amounts of AA (and lag)
    And thanks :)
