One of the big problems that I had with CWC was it was just about impossible to get a waterline or under the waterline hit on many of the ships such as my Choctaw or the one pictured by Steve T above. So..... the superstructure would take all of the damage and that was not that easy to rebuild.


Funny how ships that were designed to be impenetrable from round shot fired at close ranges would have the same characteristics at our scales.      

So, given that "realistic" CWC means bb guns with no penetrable windows cut, just how would you score?  By how many dents you put in the other guy's armor?

SMS Baden - Refitting
SMS Von der Tann - broken up for razors - 2003
DKM Koln - pending refit / overhaul / MAJOR rebuild
DKM Prinz Eugen - hull on the shelf looking pitifully at me

You win by running the other ship aground
Battling: SMS Scharnhorst, SMS Baden Building: HMS KGV (Drives, pumps water, guns are in but not plumbed) MN Edgar Quinet (Hull done) Drydock/Mothballed: Rus Evstafi, DKM Lutzow, HMS Invincible Plus 20-odd other projects, according to my Boy Scouts who thoughtfully counted them for me.

Check CSS Tennessee at Mobile Bay. Very interesting.
