War Ships Mod for alternative nations v01

[kraut1]

I have renamed the "British Destroyer Mod" to "War Ships for alternative nations Mod", to have all modified war ships in one Mod.

 

The Mission Designers can combine the files from the different Ship Folders as required.

This is importent, it is not possible to install all Mods at once, because e.g. there are 3 versions of the destroyer7.

 

Skins created by Off_Winters and Hanu, Thanks very much!

 

Concerning game balance: in respect of the default settings by IL2 GB, the Destroyer 7 is far superior in respect of anti ship fire power and the Gleaves is specialized in respect of anti aircraft fire power. This could be optimized later too in respect of the mission requirements.

Destroyer 7 modified:

No criticism intended but wouldn't the Gleaves be a better fit? or are you just trying to avoid a dependency on BoN?

No problem. Could be created additionally, if I get an british Gleaves skin.

In the meantime I have renamed the mod "War Ships Mod for alternative nations", to have 1 post for many war ship mods.

The reason for me was simple, that for me was the Gleaves the "typical US Destroyer", maybe be because of the (for me) typical 5" turrets.

For 1944 Normandy or 1943 Tunisia missions we could have US and british destroyers (destroyer7) in one mission.
