Nash Class Battleship

In 1 collection by mattjginsburg
Faction Craft - Neter's Edge
137 items
Description
The Nash is a large battleship built to be less expensive then competitors of similar size and armaments.

The Nash armed with four triple barrel APS guns using APHE, AP HEAT and hollow point. It also has 8 dual barrel APS guns that function as CIWS, 8 medium torpedoes, and a ton of simple weapons.

Defensively, the Nash has 4 sonar decoys, a bunch torpedo interceptors, a bunch of CIWS cannons along with smoke and some shielding. The Nash also has decent armor and fair speed as well.

I'll try to update this description after a bit more testing, I mostly just wanted to get the ship out on the workshop.

I've also updated information for the faction in the collection as well.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

If anyone is interested in submitting a vehicle or structure or building something for my faction please let me know, I'll also gladly take suggestions for ships to use as references or ideas for crafts that would fit in with the rest of the faction. If anyone wants any additional information about the faction or campaign, feel free to message me or comment.

I'm also looking for people to help test out the ships already designed and to provide feedback on potential changes and suggestions along with issues with ships. (on older ships, if steam engines don't work, just message me and I'll update the file)

To pile on even more information, if anyone has any ideas about how to get more submissions or get more community involvement in the campaign, let me know.

As always, feel free to critique or comment on the ship or ask any questions below.

I hope you enjoy the ship!

I usually do interiors, but I didn't want to just fill it with my normal bunks I've used in the past. I might redo it and add some of the machinery and dining areas I've prefabbed though into the interior.

In that case my points are moot :) But the place feels a tad empty without anything there, so I was wondering because of it. 10/10 got stuck between too many mimics

I used to have the twin 40s but they were just too expensive (also the superstructure LWCs had substantial issues with EMP). The ship is faction balanced so I tried to avoid HA on the main turrets. Good catch with the Sabot head rounds though, I'll check it out as only two of the main turrets are supposed to use them.

Also, one of the guns on the superfiring forward turret isn't using the correct ammo, instead using the sabot head round.

I'm impressed with the ship. Looks great and the entire thing is far more compact than my ships. A couple small items to note: I'd use HA around the lower mains to increase the firepower a bit.

Missiles pass right through rail launchers, so I recommend multi-stacking the torpedo interceptors
Lastly, my magic managed to add the twin 40mm guns by adding LWCs into the superstructure, so you could re-add them on those places :) But yeah, the ship is amazing

The Fuso is one of the 1920s replacement projects made by Yuzuru Hiraga, so it more resembles a cheap version of A-140 projects without the 6" battery, so sadly I have to disappoint you. Took heavy liberties with the design, but she is already a gorgeous girl

I've designed a Fuso like ship before and the front and rear towers are crazy hard to get right. I'm excited to see it, good luck!

Looks crazy good. I have my own 858k IJN Fuso replacement proposal. Gonna look at it later, but. Props to you for making such a thing.

Thanks! The ship's primarily based off of the Tennessee, but I see the resemblance for sure (I wouldn't be surprised if the Minnesota was based off the Tennessee)

Looks like WoWS' Minnessotta. Nice job!
