Fabulous work Stuart. I just downloaded them and will add them to the fleet.

Cracking job. Thousand tanks Stuart, another pair of brilliant ships.

Thank you Suart. These new ships are welcome. The Italian Navy played a prominant role in the Med, and we've had very little in the way of ships from their Navy.

Thanks, Stuart! Interesting to note the bow deck striping...I assume they were for national identification, but seems it would highlight the ship as a target also.(!?)

Thanks very much and a Merry Christmas Stuart - well done.

I tried them out in a mission with some other Italian warships. They look beautiful but instead of following the rest of the fleet line astern they steer due north at twice the speed of the other ships.

Does anyone know how to fix this? I think Rami had a similar problem with his Operation Pedestal convoy.

what is the category in the DP? I'm on my laptop so I cant look right now. it sounds like its either unarmed or the wrong category. I'm not sure what else it could be.

never mind I found out what it is. neither of them have any guns. so they are running for the hills.

**kdriver** · December 25th, 2013, 07:04

Thanks BH you're right - Category 17 which is correct for battleships but no guns in the DP.

**stuart277** · December 25th, 2013, 11:37

Hi Kdriver
The DP file is the same as the PHP project Nevada Class Battleship.
There are no guns in this DP.
If you want it to have guns, just substitute the DP from the stock Nevada (or any other similar battleship) then copy and paste these files into the appropriate places.

Its the convoy bug. Without the atleast one gun, It doesn't have to do any damage, the ships will turn north and run for the hills as soon as enemy planes are sited.

I've slowly been making new DPs for all of Stuarts ships. I'm using the gmax models to help map the coords. Its slow because I have to open both DPed and gmax. Then adjust all of the boxes and parts to fit.

I have a few finished. As soon as I get enough completed, i plan on sending them to Stuart for his thoughts. If he like them then he can add them to the downloads.

**kdriver** · December 26th, 2013, 09:07

Thanks Stuart - yes I've substituted the dp files for the time being (including some of your Royal Navy ships).

Thanks very much Blood Hawk - I'm sure your dp files will be appreciated.
