Hey everyone,
super excited about getting my hands on the game and starting my first little let's play as 1920 USA; really looking forward to carrier battles.
All design tips and hints welcome of course!
What I did already notice is that a lot of the legacy fleet DDs were extremely overweigth. Is that something that is generally accepted? Would these ships not basically sink with a single hit?

The legacy designs being overweight is a common bug, oftentimes you will likely end up scrapping most of the legacy fleet because the designs are mostly awful, and the auto generation uses some stupid features(all the legacy designs will have an armour value of zero, aka they use armour from 1900 which is pretty much worthless by 1920 and makes all the legacy ships underarmoured)

Oh well, with Washington Treaty I will have to stick with the capitals for now and I imagine some will be converted into CV(L)s anyway. |

Has killed tens (hundreds?) of thousands of Filipinos to continue the occupation of a territory half a world away, which was invaded and annexed after a war of aggression under false pretenses.
Talks about a very aggressive Japan. Yep, a true USA lets play  .
With a nice thumbnail  . Hope 1920 start is not as skewed as in the demo. |

With a nice thumbnail . Hope 1920 start is not as skewed as in the demo. Of course! I typically include a bite of roleplaying  . Also definitively going to take every tension-increasing decision I can. |

Btw for 1920 start CVL’s you will usually find the predreadnaughts you have as quite useful conversions, especially since it turns a useless ship into something very nice
