[miamieagle]

There are new Transport Ships available at http://www.simviation.com/lair/cfs2shipyard.htm


Thank you Collin!:medals:

[PSULLYKEYS]

Thanks ME! beat me to it!:guinness:

Collin and Tango Romeo are the co-authors. :applause: Some pix below using Jean Bomber's Gibraltar scenery. They look great at sea level!

[Rami]

They'll also be a tempting target for Beaufighters. :d

[PSULLYKEYS]

S'more pix.

[Jagdflieger]

Thanks Collin!

[Ravenna]

They'll also be a tempting target for Beaufighters. :d
But first take a look at that flag!:icon_lol:

Great work Collin. Any chance that we might see HMS Vanguard on the high seas?
:ernae:

[CrisGer]

wonderful, it is great to have some really good transports...convoys, invasions, harbour scenes, shipping attacks, coastal actions, landings, so many possiblities.... one of those is very much like some of the transports used in the Aleutans actions....and also Torch...

[Collin]

But first take a look at that flag!:icon_lol:

There's 3 nationalities available, Italian, Brit and USA. And before you ask, many liners pressed into service in the Brit navy had sufficient number of crew who were RN reservists for the ship to fly the 'blue duster'


Any chance that we might see HMS Vanguard on the high seas?
:ernae:

Hmmmm.....in your lifetime? Not sure, between eating, sleeping, and playing Blitzkrieg, I have very little time left for such esoteric poly machinations.:icon_lol:

Besides, the workforce is off on its xmas hols with just a few left to finish the RFA model.:icon_lol:

[SPman]

Hey, when's the Vanguard going to be finished?????? :ernae:

[oldwheat]

Hey Rami, there's your Italian liner.

[Collin]

Hey, when's the Vanguard going to be finished?????? :ernae:

Dunno....Had to go back to the drawing board, completely new hull with rudder, armour belt and anchor recesses, still not happy about the latter or the gun turrets.:kilroy:


regards Collin:ernae:

[The_Editor]

Excellent. :ernae::medals:

[Rami]

Oldwheat,

Thanks, but I knew this was coming. Collin and I are part of "Dirty's Dozen," we keep in contact on Skpye typically a few to several times a week. :santahat:

[Jagdflieger]

The tanker is looking nice. My poor Ground Crew tanker has been sunk so many times it won't stay afloat anymore and needs some relief!

[Bill Kestell]

Jagd .... just fill 'er up with some light, sweet crude!

[sc7500]

... Or MAYBE some Helium !

Thanks for these Collin - Nice Work !

Skipsan :kilroy:

[xavierb]

Yes, wonderful ships! Thank you very much, Collins!

[hewman100]

Did anyone ever slap some grey paint on the QM?

[Collin]

Guys, it was Tango Romeo who transposed the parts to make the majority of the new models, so cuedo's to him.:ernae:

The oiler has now got its derricks and some gun platforms, some old parts needed to be retextured, soon be finished.

regards Collin:ernae:

[CrisGer]

what a lovely tanker! cant wait to add that to the fleet. They were such an important element of so many campaigns and theatres...Atlantic Convoy, Med Convoys, fleet train and so much more.

[Collin]

Well she has been launched and is waiting at the fitting-out yard for her new .dp file.

She won't be a pushover, she has 4 twin 40mm's and 4 20mm's to cream you with if'n you try to get fresh with her.

regards Collin:ernae:

[Nole]

The file's up on The Shipyard.

[egypt23spitfire]

[Nole]

There's another new tanker ship available over at SimV NEW downloads: http://www.simviation.com/simviation/index.php?ID=301&page=1000

[Finn]

Hi Guys. Simviation just put on a new CFS-2 file named "fleet Oiler" which I reccon is just what is needed in the game - do we have it here too? If not, rush over and get it on CFS-2 NEW FILES.
Finn:jump:

[Rami]

Yeup...that's the one that Collin was working on. Thanks for the update! :ernae:

[Nole]

There are two new tankers, one at the Shipyard by Collin and one at SimV NEW CFS2 by TR.

[skylane]

Wonderful ships! Thanks, Collin!

[Jagdflieger]

Now there are two version 2 fleet oilers up at Collin's Shipyard.

We're rolling in new tankers. With all the soon to be lost cyber tonnage and barrels of crude and refined avgas in the CFS 2 oceans, we're set for an ecological disaster!

[miamieagle]

Two new Tanker have been release at CG Shipyard by Collins.

Get them here!

Thank you Collins!

[miamieagle]

Genetic Tanker also found at Simviation!

[Ravenna]

Is her call sign D-N-A ?!:icon_lol:

[Ravenna]

Yup, many thanks Collin!:applause:

[miamieagle]

Heys Guys I meant to write Generic not Genetic, Sorry LoL.....:icon_lol:

[Jagdflieger]

Must have been a GERIATRIC moment :jump:

[Collin]

Must have been a GERIATRIC moment :jump:

Nope....he was right first time.....Repose bits'an'bobs on the maternal side, Tango Romeo on the paternal.:icon_lol:

regards Collin:ernae:

[miamieagle]

It was a GERIATRIC moment Jag!

Unfortunualy I get them often! LoL :icon_lol:

[Skipsan]

The generic WWII Armed Fleet Oiler "AO" is spot on covering a hole host of US classes :ernae::ernae::ernae:

http://www.navsource.org/archives/09/19/19087.htm

did a "dp" for a late war ship. NOT fun to fly against, she cares 4-3"/50's DP, 2-40mm Twin's, 12-20mm MG's & 1-5"/38 DP. After getting close enough to view on-board gun lay out, a "new dp" is in order to match the lay out :isadizzy:

The new dp well carry 2-5"/38 DP's, 2-3"/50 DP's, & 4-20mm MG Twin's. This should back date her to 1942-mid 1943 :isadizzy:

Skipsan :kilroy:

:pop4: But before I can post the dp's I'll need TR and company's permission :USA-flag:

[Collin]

Thanks for asking Skipsan,

The fella you want is really TR, he hangs out at the simviation cfs2 forum now.

http://205.252.250.26/cgi-bin/yabb2/YaBB.pl?num=1260119550

Though on a personal level I would like to see a dp file that didn't have such accurate guns, and with a lot more flak and tracer.

regards Collin:ernae:

[Skipsan]

Thank you very much Collin. Ill drop TR a line and see what he has to say :wiggle: I'll also work on the flak for you :salute:

By-the-by Collin your Flt Aux does have a striking resemblance to the early AOG's. The forward gun's need to be in a center line arrangement other then that I'd say she is spot on :jump:

Thank you for all the hard work :applause::applause::applause:

Skipsan :kilroy:

Well....hmmmm.....I actually took the repose model and tried to make a quick model of HMS Olna late 44 by chucking other ready made bits onto it.:pop4:

In the same vain, a new model on the stocks,
