    PS, una pregunta...normalmente una nueva rama va acompaña de algún premium. Podemos esperar algo similar con la rama de cruceros españoles? No se si lo habrás comentado en algún directo o puesto por algún sitio.

     

    También había pensado lo mismo.

     

    En el caso de los panamericanos, pusieron de premium al Almirante Abreu, ¿no? Un equivalente español sería el Reina Regente.

  2. A falta de características definitivas y vistas más detalladas, éstas son mis primeras impresiones sobre esta línea, centradas en consideraciones históricas y basadas en la documentación e información que reuní para elaborar esta Bola de Cristal.

     

    Tier I a VI. Barcos históricos.

    Poco que decir, salvo que el Méndez Núñez en tier II es un despropósito. No cuadra para nada con el tipo de buques empleados hasta ahora para ese tier, más propio de cruceros protegidos que de una reconstrucción realizada en los años 40, que dio como resultado un buque moderno y completamente distinto del original. Con una recarga más rápida, podría haber ido unos tier arriba, y haber sido nuestro mini-Atlanta.

    También comentar, aunque sea solo a nivel estético, que al Baleares le sobran las banderas de neutralidad. Creo que todos sabemos que no vivió lo suficiente como para llevarlas. Hubiera quedado más propio haberlo presentado con el esquema de pintura que llevaba cuando lo hundieron.

     

    Tier VII. Proyecto Ansaldo VIII - 203.

    Lo primero que llama la atención, chirría más bien, son las torres de telemetría antiaérea alemanas. Éstas quedan de PM en un buque con arquitectura alemana, pero en este caso, son un pegote que afea las esbeltas líneas de los diseños italianos. Cierto es que España compró aparatos de telemetría a Alemania, pero dudo mucho que nuestros ingenieros navales no las hubieran adaptado al diseño italiano, o a uno propio, en vez de limitarse a copiar esas cúpulas alemanas.

    La artillería antiaérea de origen alemán está perfectamente elegida, salvo por los montajes dobles de 105 mm. No están del todo mal, ya que sí que se intentaron adquirir, aunque la compra no se materializó, pero hubieran quedado más propios los montajes dobles de 120 mm DP de fabricación nacional, con los que se proyectaron los diseños de postguerra para  cruceros y destructores. O incluso con los frustrados cañones de 90 mm de diseño propio. La artillería secundaria de 120 mm sería un toque característico de la línea española.

    Un detallazo la catapulta de origen alemán, por lo que supongo llevará de dotación un He 114.

     

    (Nota mental: hacer una versión del Littorio español con torres de telemetría estilo alemán y cañones de 105 mm…)

     

    Tier VIII. Proyecto Ansaldo IX – 203.

    El nombre… no sé yo… Si hacemos el ejercicio de ponernos con la mentalidad de la época, dado que Cataluña fue el último bastión del bando republicano durante la Guerra Civil, y que no aportó nada a la victoria final de Franco, parece poco probable que nombraran así a un buque de la Armada. De hecho, hasta la fragata F-73, ya en los años 70, no hubo ningún buque con ese nombre, y eso que dos de los barcos de la ayuda americana recibieron nombres de regiones, Castilla y Aragón. En dos ocasiones. Castilla es el tier X. Ahí lo dejo…

    Las torres de telemetría antiaérea tienen la misma consideración que en el caso del Asturias.

    La artillería antiaérea. Torres de 128 mm DP, las favoritas de @Criseox:P Un poco pronto ese calibre para un tier VIII, me parece, aunque históricamente hablando, también se intentaron comprar a Alemania. Haría la misma consideración de antes con respecto a artillería de origen nacional. En cuanto al resto de antiaéreos, ¿en serio? ¿Antiaéreos italianos? ¿Qué parte del  Programa Bär no ha entendido Wargaming? ¿No fueron ellos mismos los que pusieron antiaéreos alemanes en el Álvaro de Bazán, un tier X? Esta mezcolanza de antiaéreos es infumable. Estas armas deberían haber sido las mismas que en el Asturias. Si quieres, con los 37 mm buenos en vez de la chusta que compramos.

    También se ve catapulta alemana, por lo que también debería llevar un He 114. O ya puestos, un Ar 169.

     

    Tier IX. Proyecto SECN 138.

    Este buque no corresponde a ninguna de las tres configuraciones de artillería (4x3 203 mm, 2x3 280 mm y 2x2 305 mm) propuestas para este diseño. WG se ha sacado de la manga una cuarta configuración con un calibre que, a pesar de lo que afirma, nunca fue valorada para ningún proyecto de crucero español.

    Puestos a usar un SECN, en este tier hubiera sido más realista la versión de 4x3 203 mm que propusimos.

    En este caso, las cúpulas alemanas de telemetría hasta quedan bien; sí señor. 

    La artillería secundaria de 128 ya cuadraría más con el tier, pero sigo pensando que las torres de 120 mm darían un toque más distintivo. Además, a estas alturas ya podrían usarse las torres del Oquendo.

     

    6a30d363d541867b00d78bcd039daf43.jpg

     

     

    Estas torres tienen su encanto, aunque quien las diseñó, o era un genio o un desequilibrado. Vaya pesadilla geométrica… :S

    Y más antiaéreos italianos… Me remito al comentario anterior. Personalmente, no habría descartado el uso de Bofors de 40 mm. A fin de cuentas, los proyectos que hubo, incluso los de destructores, contemplaban cañones de 40 mm, que solo podían ser los Bofors.

    EDITO: me he dado cuenta de que los otros directores de tiro, junto con sus radiotelémetros, son británicos... Un poco improbable para esa época, ¿no? :D

     

    Tier X. Invento de WG.

    Este barco no corresponde a ningún proyecto real. Como mucho, es un pastiche, basado en un  rediseño del gran crucero italiano tipo Napoli con elementos alemanes. Teniendo eso en cuenta, los cañones principales de 234 mm y la artillería secundaria de 128 mm, podrían ser hasta lógicos, pero seguimos con la incongruencia de los antiaéreos italianos. Si no se le ponen cañones Bofors y Oerlikon, lo suyo es que hubiera estado equipado con artillería de 30 mm y 55 mm alemana.

     

    Habrá que estar atentos a todas las informaciones que vayan saliendo de esta línea.

     

    EDITO 2: Cada vez estoy más convencido de que WG no se ha documentado muy bien, o está haciendo lo que le sale de las narices. En el video que ha salido se ven hidroaviones IMAM Ro.44, y la catapulta que parecía alemana es en realidad italiana. Sí que operamos este tipo de aviones, de los huidos a las Baleares cuando la rendición de Italia. Un avión de estos podría cuadrar en el tier VII, pero para los demás, España ya tenía un avión mejor, el Heinkel 114, que llegó a estar embarcado en el crucero Miguel de Cervantes. Para los tier IX y X el Ro. está más que obsoleto.

    Bufff, de WG  se puede esperar cualquier cosa visto lo visto en estos años!!!

     

    Suelen sacar un premium coincidiendo con el evento de acceso anticipado, ¿no?

     

    Aún nos podrían dar una sorpresa...

    NEW SHIPS - CLOSED TEST 12.4

    A branch of Spanish cruisers has been added to the game for testing, as well as Dutch cruiser Van Speijk, German cruiser Schill, and Pan-Asian destroyer Lüshun.

     

    For the upcoming closed testing session, a branch of Spanish cruisers will be added to the game.

    Ships of this branch rely on main battery guns with good firing range. They are also armed with torpedoes, which have short range. The ships have good concealment but mediocre maneuverability. 

    Starting from Tier VII, the ships gain access to the "Burst Fire" alternative fire mode, which additionally increases AP shell penetration and damage. Main battery guns have flat ballistics, but low damage per minute. The ships also have high speed. 

    The new ships have a good choice of consumables:

    • Hydroacoustic Search starting from Tier IV and the option to instead equip Defensive AA Fire in the same slot starting from Tier VI.
    • Repair party and Fighter or Spotting aircraft in one slot starting from Tier VII

    Spanish cruiser Jupiter, Tier I

    KDN63lZfgJz7XUroIh68HgcCrdq1ZHd6yw29KAKL.jpg

    In the 1930s, Spain began building a new class of minelayers, all named after Roman gods. Jupiter-class ships were also to serve as gunboats, for which they received effective gunnery. While still under construction, the lead ship of the Jupiter-class was captured by the Nationalists during the Spanish Civil War. After commissioning, the ship participated in the blockade of the Republican coast in the Bay of Biscay by intercepting transports and setting up minefields - the same minefields that caused the sinking of Nationalist battleship España in April 1937.

    Spanish cruiser Méndez Núñez, Tier II

    D9G294glWOCbJ8KwMUdwWJhFFjtIQ2KLCF60qdKI.jpg

    The ships Blas de Lezo and Méndez Núñez, based on the British C-class cruisers, were laid down in 1917. Since the first ship of the class couldn't be completed in time for the 100th birthday of its intended namesake Admiral Méndez Núñez in 1924, the names were switched around and Méndez Núñez became the name of the second ship of the class. With the outbreak of the civil war, the crew of the cruiser Méndez Núñez remained on the side of the Republicans. During the war, the cruiser escorted merchant ships and took part in the battle at Cape Palos. In 1938, Méndez Núñez was damaged by Nationalist bombers.

    Spanish cruiser Navarra, Tier III

    gPuLXawiMFANx0uyqLAEo8F4uWHkoq3ydqrhugFa.jpg

    Named after the wife of the reigning king of Spain at the time, Victoria Eugenie of Battenberg, this ship was laid down in March 1915. The project was based on British cruiser Birmingham. In 1923–26 the ship took part in the Rif War, in 1928–29 she underwent a major overhaul, and in 1930 she was transferred to the naval school in Cadiz. With the proclamation of the Second Spanish Republic, the cruiser was renamed República. With the outbreak of the civil war, the ship went over to the side of the Nationalists and in 1937 changed its name again, this time to Navarra.

    Spanish cruiser Almirante Cervera, Tier IV

    ChzxawtJZXYDH9d1Lk4jNS1Xiz580Rkt0lDQTnGB.jpg

    In 1922, together with the British company Armstrong, a project was created for new cruisers for the Spanish fleet. The project was based on British E-class cruisers and took into account the experience of World War I. The Spanish cruisers differed from their prototype in the location of the power plant. At the beginning of the civil war, a fight took place on the cruiser Almirante Cervera: Republican loyalists tried to take the ship out of port, but were defeated by Nationalist officers. The cruiser took part in the blockade of the coast, supported the advance of the troops with fire, escorted convoys, and participated in the battle of Cape Palos.

    Spanish cruiser Galicia, Tier V

    f0tZAlEb876XQTlc1N53YtwucYv8wl6JoVmLlqcj.jpg

    The cruiser Príncipe Alfonso was renamed Libertad with the formation of the republic. With the outbreak of the civil war, the ship remained on the side of the Republic, although it was commanded by a cousin of Francisco Franco. At Cape Tenes, Libertad scored several hits on the Nationalist heavy cruiser Baleares, and at Cape Palos she engaged both enemy heavy cruisers. The ship was later damaged by several Italian air raids. When Libertad fell into the hands of the Francoist government, it received the name Galicia.

    Spanish cruiser Baleares, Tier VI

    0zEIPBTYWfMZoZwlWFISs1JSRQsphRY6T2CjBgqy.jpg

    In 1926, Spain ordered two modern "Washington Treaty" cruisers. Vickers-Armstrong created a project based on the County-class cruisers with increased air defense and armor. The cruisers were named Canarias and Baleares after the major Spanish archipelagos. The construction was delayed, but the Nationalists who seized the shipyards forced the completion of the cruisers. Beleares participated in the attack on Malaga, in the hunt for transports, raids on coastal fortifications, and the bombardment of cities. The cruiser was sunk by Republican destroyers at the Battle of Cape Palos.

    Spanish cruiser Asturias, Tier VII

    eTNT8w4E3EhitFWiiVt0ZHWBfAVnW9ObIEIzeGk7.jpg

    Ties between the government of fascist Italy and the Francoist regime strengthened after the latter claimed victory in the Spanish Civil War. These connections were also manifested in the field of naval construction: Spain planned to familiarize itself with the latest achievements in Italian shipbuilding in order to strengthen its fleet. The Italian company Ansaldo developed three projects for a heavy cruiser for Spain, which differed from each other in the composition of their armament. One of the options included an armament composed of four 203 mm twin-gun mounts.

    Spanish cruiser Cataluña, Tier VIII

    Ib6cEsdldzOCAv8px7VpdXfimZQA3EljMdgljwTr.jpg

    After the victory of the Nationalists in the civil war, ties between Spain and fascist Italy grew stronger. Suffering from an insufficient number of modern ships of all classes, Spain planned to familiarize itself with the latest achievements in Italian shipbuilding in order to strengthen its fleet. The Italian company Ansaldo developed three projects for a heavy cruiser for Spain, which differed from each other in the composition of their armament. Another one of the projects included an armament composed of three 203 mm triple-gun mounts.

    Spanish cruiser Andalucía, Tier IX

    TgekD7KHAECAYLtzwsxt4S058LKVXPDID2yahuvp.jpg

    In parallel with the work on the construction and repair of ships for the fleet, Francoist Spain was developing new ships. In 1938, five destroyer projects and several cruiser projects with a displacement of 7,920 to 19,000 tons were planned out. The largest was project 138 - "a cruiser with a speed of 36 knots" with different options for the main battery. The option of building a cruiser using the turrets from the battleship España was considered. The most common variant is the three triple-gun turrets with guns ranging in caliber from 203 to 254 mm.

    Spanish cruiser Castilla, Tier X

    ocDyCNThz8k8w3OJHBhF0CTEvrcWljuoAeUqI2mn.jpg

    Simultaneously with their own development of heavy cruisers, Spanish engineers were in close contact with their Italian colleagues and adopted from them the latest achievements in the field of armor and armament of ships. The knowledge gained could well result in a project created on the basis of a synthesis of Italian and Spanish naval thought - the projects of the Ansaldo cruisers and the project of the "super-Washington" cruiser from the Ferrol shipyard.

     Ship naming reason

    By the 1930s, one of three options had traditionally been used for the naming of the cruisers of the Spanish Navy. The first, in honor of famous commanders who distinguished themselves on the battlefield, such as Méndez Núñez or Almirante Cervera. The second, in honor of the royal family, like Reina Victoria Eugenia and Príncipe Alfonso. But in 1931, Spain became a Republic and these ships were renamed, República and Libertad, respectively. However, their naming adventures did not end there: the first landed in hands of the Nationalists in 1936, the second in 1939. Since Franco had no immediate intention to restore the monarchy, naming ships after members of the royal family was scrapped.

    Therefore, a third option was used - historical regions of Spain. Such names in 1936 were already received by the new cruisers Canarias and Baleares - for the Canary and Balearic Islands. República became Navarra, and Libertad became Galicia: the province of Navarre supported Franco in the civil war, and he himself was from Galicia. However, such names had a long tradition: from 1903 to 1929, the cruiser Cataluña (“Catalonia”) served in the Spanish fleet, and at the end of the 19th century, Aragón (“Aragon”) and Castilla (“Castile”) served and sank at the battle of Manila with the United States Navy in 1898. We decided to follow the same rule, adding to this series the names of the coastal regions of Asturias and Andalucía (Andalusia).

    Estoy tan desconcertado como vosotros, ¿no es acaso el mismo Roon de rama? ¿Qué tiene de diferente aparte de ser premium?

     

    Pues que tiene pinta de ser una nueva gama de barcos para la venta, los CLR, como este N. Carolina.

    n%20carolina%20clr.png

     

    Como si fueran los de la serie Black, pero de colores en vez de negros.

     

    Y luego tenemos a los STAR:

    Tienes toda la razón. He estado visionando el dvd  de Tora Tora Tora y el despegue para el ataque y en las imagenes se ve que el despegue es hacia proa (como es lo normal) y la isla queda a estribor y no es real ya que el Akagi y el Hiryu son los dos únicos Poraviones que tuvierón el puente de mando (isla) a babor.

    En las diferentes maquetas del Akagi que salen en la película, todas salen a estribor. Meeeek..., fallo.

    Saludos, Julio.

    Hombre, cabe la posibilidad que las fotos estén mal nombradas y que sea en realidad el Kaga...

    El problema en el diseño que propone es que un acorazado necesita calibres altos para poder ser llamado acorazado y cumplir sus funciones, esos cañones grandes suponen una plataforma artillera estable lo que conlleva mucha manga (anchura)  y coeficientes de bloque elevados.

    No olvidemos que la tecnología de cañones de riel ya está en desarrollo, y que podrían ser una buena plataforma para este tipo de armas.

  8. Ya que parece, por el calibre de la artillería principal, que el crucero de tier X español puede tener todas las papeletas de ser algún tipo de Napoli, y viendo también por el Álvaro de Bazán que la antiaérea de los tier altos españoles puede ir en la línea de ser la alemana de última generación, he hecho una modificación del Vizcaya para adaptarlo a estas posibilidades.

    Armamento:

    Artillería principal: 3x3 de 254 mm/60 

    Artillería secundaria: 8x2 KM40 de 128 mm /61 de doble propósito

    Artillería antiaérea:
         5x2 y 8x1 Gerät 58 de 55 mm/77
         8x4, 8x2 y 10x1 Flak 103/38 de 30 mm/45

    Lanzatorpedos: 2x4 de 533 mm, con torpedos G7a

    Antisubmarino: 1 varadero y 2 morteros lanzacargas de profundidad

    Grupo aéreo: 4 Arado Ar 196, una catapulta.

     

    En el equipo de la Bola de Cristal hemos decidido bautizar a este nuevo buque con el nombre de Victoria, en honor a la nao con la Elcano efectuó la primera vuelta al mundo. La Armada tiene en servicio actualmente una fragata de la clase Santa María con el mismo nombre, la F-82 Victoria.

  9. Pues parece que está todo aclarado y el cambio de nombre está justificado. Supongo que debido a circunstancias que no vienen al caso, DuainHicks no ha podido notificar el renombramiento, y es lo que ha echo saltar las alarmas.

     

    Desde aquí deseo al nuevo clan una feliz singladura por esos mares que nos brinda WG. :Smile_honoring:

     

    También aprovecho para indicar, tal como ha hecho @FrankvC, que si algún miembro del antiguo NKK3 desea seguir dentro de la familia Nippon Kaigun Kriegsmarine, no dude en enviar una solicitud para el NKK2. Nuestra diosa Bismarck estará encantada de acoger a los fieles seguidores de Musashi :Smile_smile:

    No sé quién paga Manolojones pero.....no estoy muy contento con la maniobra. Creo que si el comandante quería montar un clan no tenía más que salirse de NKK3 y montar el suyo con todo lo que ello requiera.

    Exacto.

    Por ese motivo pido que por favor, con diligencia se me restituya como miembro del Clan NKK3 a la máxima brevedad posible.

    Espera un poco a a ver si podemos contactar con @DuainHicks. Igual hay una explicación y vuelve a poner el nombre como estaba.
