Followed by his second project, with more of both virtues upon display... nws-online.proboards.com/thread/889/glorious-mercan-another-savagely-inept"Sep 5, 2016 at 7:50pm Post by Bullethead on Sep 5, 2016 at 7:50pm NOTE: The author was a bit tipsy when all this happened, and that was a couple days ago, so there are no doubt quite a few inaccuracies in the details (such as number of ships and their deployments), but the gist of the story is true. Setting: US, Historical Resources, Very Large Fleets, Varied Tech, Admiral difficulty Protagonist: Admiral Jebediah Bullethaulsey, Esq. 2nd son of a wealthy industrial family. He passed the bar before entering the navy, has an insatiable lust for prestige and spends his time on the inactive list being a state senator. This means I'm playing the game with much more of a tendency to make choices that give me prestige than when I played the Italians, regardless of whether that's actually a good idea on the big picture. Ship Naming Conventions: Battleships: states Fleet heavy ACs: state capital cities Fleet CLs: big but non-capital cities Long-range light ACs: major badasses of the American frontier Long-range CLs: less-famous frontier badasses and lesser-known mountainmen Destroyers: Dead naval heroes and patrons of the game's past (and the future of the real world). The 1st DD was named after my own dearly departed DDG-12 from the real world, which was herself named for some bureaucrat, not a hero. 200-ton Minesweepers: Random, seemingly drawn from the names of known steamboats and tugboats. Other: to be determined. The Legacy Fleet: Pretty pictures thanks to "Ship Parts for Everyone" by @nuno dos Santos."
