Yamathick.

>>17436023
What we know for sure:
British Aircraft carrier
Japanese DD
Speculation from nips:
Possible Italian submarine(one of the two that eventually became Japanese submarines)
French BB.

>>17436034
>British Aircraft carrier
We already know her name you know.

Will the upcoming event be the swan song for the game?

>>17436034
Only four girls in a 「大規模」 event seems pretty anemic.

>>17436028
Yamashit.

>>17436046
Two actually. And those are the two I meant. Both were actually considered traitors to Italy.

You guys kept mentioning that Tanaka said another ship that changed names often like Gangut would be added but I've yet to find it in any of the interviews or tweets.

>>17436040
I'm sure we will get one or two more girls(destroyer or escort ship) drops as new ships as well.

They're being retarded, what he mentioned was a foreign ship with an unfortunate career.

>>17436085
Oh so they're talking about this line?
>T: There might be wrinkles of course, but the plan is to have comparatively more Kai Ni remodels this year. There are definitely several coastal defense ships I want to introduce the latter half of this year. Also, we'll be implementing Gangut, first of the Gangut-class battleships, but we are further preparing to add more foreign ships, such as one with that led a checkered career.

We already got two battleships from that country. We don't need a third with yet another garbage long-range gun.

I don't remember seeing KanColle Sokuhou saying shit about that back then.

>>17436112
I've got a feeling that you used google TL to translate those posts.

Probably the best Italian ship they can add. Except maybe another Zara-class if they give her a Due from the start.

>>17436084
Luigi Torelli sounds like the possible candidate. She did pretty well for herself, part of the Wolfpack, went to Far East which later became the Germans, Handed over to Japan and manage to shot down a Mitchell. As subs go, she's not bad of a career.

For a sub that only had a few shitty machine guns it's surprising she shot down anything at all.

>>17436194
B-25 wasn't that fast especially at cruise speed or slower. Probably was flying slow to hit the submarine.

Depends. We're at 3-1 now, but 4 ships seems too few for a large event, so they could easily toss in a pair of Erotofu's sisters to make it a draw.

so breaking the 6 ships per foreign navy rule also means the all foreign ships drawn by the same artist rule. now I have to live in fear that the ships I want added might be drawn by potato man.

Will they break the "Ship's Kai Ni is drawn by the artist of its base form" rule?

>>17436878
They tend to look more unique.

>>17436878
I guess shipgirls are usually designed by using ideas and archetypes that are a safe bet but in exchange can look a bit more derivative or stale than the crazy designs of the abyss.

Guess they really didn't put much thought on some initial designs, and started acting on it only afterwards.

>>17437702
That and Kongou was the only one actually constructed in the UK. The rest were built in Japan. Probably why Kongou is the only one that really hams up the Brit thing.
You have to understand Japan didn't have much of a heavy industry back then so it was a big deal for them.

Disgusting, they should've finished USN before starting with this shit third rate fleet.

>>17437714
It's not the historical joint ship development that i questioned. But the character design choise in the game.
And if that's the case, shouldn't Kongou have at least a bit more different appearance than her sisters? Or is her hairstyle+brit obcessions supposed to be that?

Being a fake brit doesn't make you bad. And Kongou is a great mood maker.
Hiei is good at being a bro and strives to be better.

>>17437891
Tell me about your "not cheap" gimmicks.
4 different Kogous - 4 different flavours. And Haruna is perfectly fine in her circle.
Unless you consider appearance/styles and archetypes should all be unique and outstanding (which they technically can't), you might as well argue that most of the ships in game are just rotated character/looks wise.
And they weren't even unique to begin with, as all of them were done somewhere before.

>>17437891
The tone that Nao used for Haruna is cute innocent heroine tone. That's what important.

>>17437924
In their place, you would be too.

>>17437924
Well, one thing i'm gald about the nev italian is that the 6meme gets finally broken.
Unless that's just Tanaka making grand announcements about how one of the ships we have will be a drop again, just like the Yamakaze announcement.

>>17437928
I bet you get angry at the rock, when you try to kick it but end up hurting yourself.

>>17437924
Giving more USN ships will only allow player to streamroll the event. You can't let the power creeping runs too fast.

Since when could you construct Akagi in normal construction?

>>17437937
No, I'm actually very forgiving. But I know how some people can be buttmad for years about the silliest things.

>>17437942
Nice bullshit. The same way Yamatos steamroll events just because you have/use them?

>>17437924
In retrospect it was in the clue though, people shouldn't have gotten their wild American hopes up.

>operation to the west
>TO THE WEST

Unlike Germany, the United States is not to the west of Japan, but the east. If we get more USN ships, you need to look out for events with directions other than west; indeed, the direction will probably be a good indicator of what ships to expect (east - Phillippine Sea/Midway ships; south, Gudalcanal/Leyte Gulf ships).

>>17437944

>>17437942
Then just don't implement any US ships built after 1942 (the USN got super OP after that), at least for a long time. But there's no reason, other than historical baggage and/or trolling the players, to keep the early war ships out: Yorktown class CVs, North Carolina class BBs, Sims/Gleaves/Fletcher class DDs, all that cluster fuck of SS classes before the ubiquitous Gato - most of these are not OP by any stretch. The only thing I can see that would hang them up is the fact they defeated the IJN in the first year of the war and that might hurt some in the feefees.

The Russians have always had and probably always will have a meme navy. It's worse than Italy, there's almost nothing interesting to implement from the Red Navy since almost everything they used except their subs were WW1 relics.

>>17438003
They already have equipment after 1942 which is more valuable than any ship in this game. This mental world you seem to have going on about having feelings hurt is the most hilarious thing to always come out of posters from these threads that literally cannot be proven.

>>17438007

>>17438198
Gangut is literally all those Russians have to offer, and AR is obviously for Bismarck pairings. French didn't have much a navy either, and for all we know the next BB could be from theirs and be decent.

>>17438215
What's wrong?
I liked Bonnouji and Wizards Soul.

>>17438228
The next BB is probably the French. Hopefully. We already have two Italian BBs with guns that are only good on them when upgraded. Don't really need another.

>>17438228
Russians actually had some newer stuff to offer.

>>17438272
Nah. I'm talking about the general ammount of shitposting the USN created. Before this guy you had people complaining about the USN never coming and such. And when they came people shitposted about them. Now this guy is shitposting about them again. I just wonder if it was a Success since their Shitposts are laughable or a mistake since these shitposts are terrible

>>17438311
Aye, but not the Axis.

I think the US guns, inch measurements, PT boats, Hellcats, Helldivers, Avengers, Liberators, and bosses based on US bases (Henderson Field, Midway, Dutch Harbor, etc) outweigh the fact they didn't have BBVs or CLTs.

The best thing about Kongou are her boots.

Yes you can. Americans didn't have a 12.5 inch secondary like the Re class.

The very fact all the Abyssal guns are measured in inches is an argument against you.

Holy shit why are retards reviving the stupid abyssals are allies thing again?

>>17438356
Dumb posters always point to equipment as "evidence" when it's literally just equipment that can be equipped on anyone like shipgirls can. If Abyssals were really Americans, CLTs should not even exist at all because the claim is that it's the Abyssal fleet that is American, not the equipment. This little theory doesn't work unless you conveniently forget Chi.

>>17438375
What the fuck?
I've never seen someone replace Houshou with Saratoga. Since they're a class apart. As for looks really is easy. People will pick girls no matter what as taste is subjective.

>>17438375
Since most of these US ships were built on the Northeast Coast, does that mean most of them are New Yorkers/New Jerseyites/Virginians? Or would they embody the spirit of what they're named for (so, Saratoga is an up-state New Yorker, while Iowa is from Iowa).

>>17438386
Please conviniently forget that subs equip surface ship torpedo mounts, or other minor nitpick reason, that go bothways for for and against those theories.
Or that theory doens't work at all since all the Abyssals are some kind of abominations, so they can't be USN at all. And so are the kanmusu, since there were no literally girls with rigs.

>marry Myoukou
>I greatly respect the admiral's tactics

Would it kill her to be more romantically affectionate to me on her wedding day

>>17438386
So the fact they all used American equipment and had bases right where the Americans did should have been taken as.....PURE COINCIDENCE?

Sure, sure.

I'm not denying it's clear they're not American NOW, but the preponderance of American stuff they have made it extremely easy to suppose they were a stand-in for the USN before Iowa was dropped.

>>17438407
Blame Tanaka for writing some shit marriage lines.

>>17438405
And now you see why the theory is retarded in the first place that still gets memed for some reason.

>>17438407
Didn't you get romantic enough when she asked if you would like to "talk to her" in an enclosed space/room when feeling uneasy?

>>17438380
It isn't.

>>17438395
It means they are New Yorkers and Virginians. Some Fletchers and Gearings would be Texans.

>>17438409
I don't understand why it's so hard for idiots to assume that they were from both sides and having some US stuff somehow means they had to be americans ONLY. That's the problem.

>>17438412
Some of them are truly, truly underwhelming.

>>17438414
Like people never meme for whatever barebones reason they can get?
Except that Abyssals being a stand in for USN had more base to it. With Tanakas' "players were ment to do rehashes of WW2 operations and visit their admirals" just like SB Yamato did to the original Yamatos operation.

But that's already in the past. The Abyssals are now just as combined as the the KanColles.

>>17438409
>>17438447
Also you can't prove Ru or Ta or the chompers are American solely on equipment because like >>17438386 said, equipment is just that, equipment. The guns are interchangeable, the ship is not.

>>17438442
Looking at a list of builders for Fletchers shows there's a LOT of nor'easters, but some from elsewhere too.

20 Californians
7 Alabamans
29 Washingtonians
12 Texans
5 South Carolinians

>>17438455
It's mostly the original girls, where you can clearly tell the lines were written before the system became marriage (temp). Some of them have absolutely nothing to do with the admiral.

>>17438097
This.
As a lover of the Royal Navy this is what pisses me off most.
I can stand a little Kriegsmarine here and a little Regia Marina there because they were an important thorn in the side of the UK to some extent. But 7 pasta ships, 6 Nazi ships, 1 Russian and soon to be 2 frog ships? In addition to this all of the CV's weren't even bloody built.

Yet we have 2 RN ships, the largest navy in the world at the time and stretched across the globe.
And only 2 yank ships the primary adversary of the Japs in a game that is focused on the Pacific Theatre.

tl;dr
If Tanaka wants to introduce allies he should do it properly.

>>17438494
It's a fucking Axis game about the IJN, not world powers, get over it. People always forget this.

>>17438489
I don't know. I always feel like she means it in a "helpful" way. Like she thinks you are shy about telling her something (thus toughing her somehow instead), so she takes the initiative and offers to hear you out (though ignoring or misinterpreting the fact that the admiral is a major in harassing subordinates).
It feels like she's just being really nice.

>>17438467
Yeah but that's destroyers, and the US had so many most will never be in the game.

I mean just looking at carriers:

Lexington - Massachusetts
Saratoga - New Jersey
Yorktown - Virginia
Enterprise - Virginia
Hornet - Virginia
Wasp - Massachusetts

All the big capital ships everyone cares about will be from Massachusetts/New York/New Jersey/Pennsylvania/Virginia because that's where the huge shipyards are.

I have a level 60 Kamoi. Is she better as AV or as AO?

>>17438501
Yeah but if that were true why even put Allied shipgirls in the game?

>>17438516
Just make her an AO, her AV form is useless.

>>17438557
Fuck I'd hate playing DD/SSColle. The little shits that drop are useless as fuck in the DD class and SS only has a handful so no one excludes any sub but that'll change to more useless subs. At least if you'll continually shove DDs up our throats can we have them be good DDs instead of garbage trophies

>>17438580
>to actually do better than adding mostly trophy DDs, possible swithching to DEs and soon to be SSs, most of the time
That went hand in hand with the dumb notion that they'd only ever add 6 ships of each foreign nation, which was just broken.
