Re: Great Naval Battles v 1.0 released!
Does everyone want a beta Version of the next
GNB patch, 1.01?
A few new ships are added to 1.01, torpedoes
go back to being non-microdrone as a seeking
weapon, a Rudimentary AI for the Abbidion
is being worked on, special advantages are
implemented mostly, with small ships gaining
an automatic combat move bonus, making smaller
ships worthwhile in the later game, and allowing
me to correctly implement battlecruisers.
Contrary to SE IV's default hull sizes,
Battlecruisers in real life were both bigger
AND heavier than contemptorary battleships,
due to the increased space needed for boilers
and fuel to keep them running. Quite a big
price to pay for 5 knots of extra speed with
the WWI battlecruisers, and 10 knots of extra
speed with the Hood.
I'm sorry to all of you for posting this mod
in such an incomplete state, but I felt it
was the best way to 'light a fire' under my
@$$, to force me to WORK on the mod and
get it finally finished after over a year's
of playing around.
