So here are the USS Baltimore, USS Alaska, USS Hawaii, USS Ohio, and the Bogue escort-carrier.

As usual, it is a great looking ship. Kinda unique looking hull shape for a cruiser too. Can hardly wait to see one on the water!

| | 10 Oct 2011 06:40 AM | | The Ohio will be ready, the question on who comes out on top will remain as always who is more reliable, who is captaining the ships, I am a realitivly inexperienced captain, but I have been running the H every three days and working out the bugs on it, the Ohio has had no shakedown cruise, those in attendance to the first Treaty battle of the year will recall that for the first four or five sorties the H had either no cannons working or one intermittantly, both dual sidemounts are singing right now... to summarize, If I run the H and everything works, and another Rookie capt runs the Ohio and it has bugs, well then the ohio might not fare as well, inversely if Mikey runs the Ohio, well maybe I will just try and use my speed to stay away till he is out of ammo lol! | | | |

She will be at the event, and will certainly be running sea trials.
If the sea trials go well, then there is a good chance that she will see combat.
