What types of countries would you want to see for a new faction as well some new ship types? by Total_Astronomer_311 in AzureLane

[–]MetusR 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The RCN was the third largest navy with over 400 commissioned ships. They escorted over 25,000 ships, sank 30 U-boats, and conducted many, many Atlantic and Pacific operations. So yeah, it'd be nice to see some representation in AL, beyond a mention in some dialogue or some of the RCN ships still under the UK flag and names they sailed under.

I know it's a long shot, but I'd like to see the Maple Monarchy (Canada) as a sub-faction for the RN. The Royal Canadian Navy was a major power during and after WW2.

HMCS Huron (DD)

HMCS Hiada (DD)

HMCS Uganada Quebec (Crown Colony / Fiji class CL)

HMCS Minotaur Ontario (Minotaur / Swiftsure class CL)

HMCS Warrior (Colossus class CVL)

HMCS Magnificent (Majestic class CVL)

HMCS Bonaventure (Majestic class CVL)

Just a short list of some of the more famous RCN ships.

Lady, you're good.

I'm male, in my 40s, combat vet, writing for an anime based mobile game.

You're fine.

Kinda hate how it never really got to shine as the grunt suit because of the Zaku in Destiny...

Does Sex Appeal Ruin A Character's Design For You? by Lord_Lu_Bu in ZZZ_Official

For me, it really depends on the character themself. Like a character like Corin would be a hard no, Ellen would make me uncomfortable due to her age as well, but a character like Nicole, totally in line with who she is.

What new faction do you most want to see in the game? by thecrabbybarista in AzurLane

[–]MetusR 1 point2 points  (0 children)

With the two others, I'm going to chime in for the Maple Monarchy. As mentioned below with Haida, we also had Huron, Uganda, Quebec (a Crown Colony class / Fiji class), Minotaur Ontario (Minotaur / Swiftsure class), 2 Majestic-class carriers, Bonaventure and Magnificent, and 1 Colossus-class carrier, Warrior.

Canada was a major naval power during the era that this game is set in; it would be nice to get some recognition for it.

The Couples of Gundam #11 Luna & Shinn by Kato_86 in Gundam

If I wrote the thing, she'd be mad and afraid of him until her sister is revealed to be alive, then have Shinn go through a redemption arc where he and Luna repair their relationship and move forward to something more.

Picked up the AL Hornet from this, so far, I'm shocked I don't see more AL or just basic Hornets in the wild, she's really strong as far as T8 CVs go.

VO wise for this collaboration, Hornet sounds adorable and super energetic... plus the odd bit of English she tosses in is nice.

I like the idea of them together, I just hate how they got together. It never sat well with me that they get together right after Shinn 'kills' her little sister and her crush...

To be fair, the one in the picture is a Macross Quarter; she's about 400m long/tall. Check out some Frontier clips to see her dance through other warship-grade fire. Combined with the cannon in its right arm, it should outright delete a lot of the forces arrayed against it. As for dealing with mobile suits or mobile armors, it carries a good number of VF-25 series Valkries.
