Sooo....ETA for Spain? ;)

[ramjb]

As mentioned in one of the pinned threats, the game will eventually include one of the nations that was in RTW but isn't here...Spain . 

My question would be how near (or far) is it?. No precise info needed (not that it usually can be given ), just a general idea to know wether it might be a couple updates from now, or it's months away, would be helpful here. Because I miss playing the Cinderella fleet of Europe in RTW


Oh, while we're at it if any help is needed with translations, names, etc, I'll gladly help with anything I can do. I'm spanish myself after all XD.

A superBB named Santissima Trinidad would be cool.

What are you talking about? Check the Custom Nations thread in Mods. hipper already did one.

I nodded it for personal use and took Austria Hungary out, chamged their holdings with German ownership and replaced Austria Hungary as a nation with the Japanese only because I rolled the clock back to 1898, just before the Spanish-American war, because Spain historically stopped being a global power 10 weeks after that war ended and lost every one of its over seas holdings. Japan seemed a better choice because of all the Spanish holdings in Southeast Asia. Raised tension with the USA to 10 and made northwestern Spain optional so Spain operates out of the Mediterranean instead of Northern Europe which is already overcrowded with U.K.,France and Germany.

Be careful if u roll the clock back. The game doesn’t like July of 1899. I had to save and roll the clock forward a couple months cuz it was getting stuck. Other than that, it’s bad ass.

The Devs have said Spain is coming back, Spain and the CSA just weren't ready for release. They're on the way though, so we will have, and are anticipating their official release dizzy

Charybdis is right though? OP was asking for the official release of Spain as a custom nation in game, as it was in RTW1. You responded by suggesting mods, which is not the information which OP was looking for. 

OP, we don't have word except that it's coming. I'm guessing that the team is currently focusing on bug-fixing and we'll likely get spain in the next couple of months - and we shall all rejoice.

Until then, hipper created Spain that you can alter to your hearts desire. I added Brazil, Argentina, Turkey and had a blast. So you can wait for something official or play hippers excellent Spain mod.

Dizzy, not everyone likes to use mods if there's no real need to. I for one usually don't use mods that change too much the gameplay of a game as originally designed and intended to be played.

Thanks for your suggestion and heads up though, not sure I'll use that one, but I will take a look at the thread anyway. I had not done so because...well as I said I'm not a huge mod user to begin with

[dizzy]

I mod everything.

Noooo....one of the funniest things about playing Spain is taking on the Habsburg KuK Marine with a ship named Juan de Austria 

[charybdis]

dizzy I read your post, and I also do use mods, but I am looking forward to the official release. Based on your initial post you did not demonstrate that you knew the Spanish were coming officially, and to be honest you seem kind of confrontational for no good reason.

Anyways, not everyone mods everything, and I don't see anything wrong in being excited about or looking forward to further development.

[dizzy]

What do you mean I'm confrontational? Huh? You trying to tell me something? Whatever it is you think you know about me, you DONT! SO DONT EVEN THINK ABOUT GOING THERE! hehe j/k

Whatever my man/chickos. Play the hipper version, I did, it's good. Mod it. That's rewarding. Or you can wait... cuz waiting is... Waiting is, uh... yeah, it's Waiting which is a good movie with Ryan Reynolds before he got really famous. Love that movie. So whatever.

[charybdis]

To be fair, it would be fantastic if someone found a way to successfully roll the clock back to 90 or 95' for more pre-dread action, especially fun as Spain with their pretty whacky lonely battleship.

You have been fairly rude and flippant so why don't you just chill, and we can focus of the original question of an official version of Spain.

Yes, we have all read what you have posted about modding, several times, but if you did the OP the same courtesy to read their original question, like you demanded of others, it was about an officially supported Spain, which a Mod is not.

The OP didn’t specifically allude to wanting only the official version. Perhaps I’m human and misread it, but I doubt that, being human... Having tried hipper’s version and finding it quite excellent, I’d thought to help the OP avoid a lengthy wait and get started on a new Spanish Armada; no time like the present! If you can’t handle that, maybe you need to come chill with me?
