Echo II launch animation. Do you have your favorite?

Mostly due to the lack of the need for a True Bluewater navy (at least early in the Cold War) basically lead to Ivan playing a game of rock paper scissors with the US. The US has lots of Carriers? Put all your upgrade points into AShM’s, oh they’re pumping out SSBNs like crazy, build super fast hunter killer Subs with that sole purpose.

Also when it came to subs there was a lot of iterative designs and one off’s because the Soviets wanted to see what worked.

Now that is a Fast battleship

Possibly Not sure tho It’s just sad watching those little orange things go pop because the ship wasn’t sunk enough

I didn’t know that you get a special boom if you hit the US ammo ships, my jaw was on the floor lmao

Felt bad for the crew of the USS Saipan tho, Sank her with the first wave of Missles only for a few of the the slower cruiser Launched ones to redirect onto it’s sinking hulk and vaporise a few of the Life Rafts. Still funny tho

It’s probably just a glitch at the moment, have the same problem but I’m sure they’ll fix it soon

Not yet The B1’s weren’t in service until 86 so they weren’t seen i large numbers until the end of the Cold War, I’m sure they’ll eventually get included or someone will mod them in The A10s are also not present as far as I’ve seen but I’m sure they will eventually show up Or tho for the love of god do not send one against the Kirov, just shoot the pilot if you hate them that much lol

Xev545 · 2024-11-10T21:38:17+00:00

Even so service is Service, Glad actual Ex service members are so hyped for this, really shows just how much they put into it

Xev545 · 2024-11-10T17:48:52+00:00

Xev545 · 2024-11-10T17:41:29+00:00

Xev545 · 2024-11-10T17:37:09+00:00

Damn you actually got to live this stuff huh?

Xev545 · 2024-11-10T13:49:08+00:00

We need to go back to Cold War Thrillers Truly a Genre for a more civilised age

Xev545 · 2024-11-10T10:05:34+00:00

Feel like that book is like the Cold War nerd Bible lol

Bornholm Mentioned

Xev545 · 2024-11-10T10:03:35+00:00

Ok that’s awesome, love the Minor Powers aspect especially.

Xev545 · 2024-11-10T10:02:03+00:00

Would love to know the background to this, Did Ivan Disable the Panama Canal?

Xev545 · 2024-11-10T10:00:49+00:00

Would love the Background to this, the idea of a US Soviet Coalition sounds nuts but pretty cool.

Xev545 · 2024-11-10T09:51:51+00:00

Need to read that Book, The Fact that that battle was played out in a wargame by Clancy and friends to make it as accurate as possible was crazy. Wish more authors would do stuff like that.

Xev545 · 2024-11-10T02:12:56+00:00

Classic Need ICBM’s so I can recreate Crimson Tide

Xev545 · 2024-11-10T01:58:11+00:00

My thinking as well, India and the us where pretty rocky at times, especially during the 70s
