    Someone please check my German grammar...

    Instead of "Kommen Sie" it should be "Kommt" unless there is something in the japanese that would indicate otherwise. "Kommen Sie" used like that would be something you hear on a carnival. Think "Come and see"

    And thus my reason for requesting help. :-) I took it more to be like, "Come here, you," a more emphatic command.

    Because KanColle doesn't have Wargaming's "point of view on Russian ships" where they would put every ship in the Russian fleet in the game before bothering to put a single ship from the Royal Navy in...

    Realistically, there isn't much to put into KanColle for the Soviet Navy. Their few capital ships (the Gangut-class) are as old as the Fuso-class and armed with 12 inch guns. And if you want to get technical, based on launch dates, they are all older than Kongo. Aside from the Kirov-class, all their cruisers are old World War One designs that predate Tenryuu. The Kirov use a weird 180mm main gun at that. Most of their destroyers are either funky old Russian Navy built ships from World War One, or a handful of modern destroyer leaders based on French designs, with Tashkent being a lone standout. And a few classes of modern destroyer based on Italian designs (Gnevny class and Soobrazitel'nyi class).

    True, they just do that with Japan and the Axis instead. They were adding no name seaplane tenders, fleet oilers, and Axis ships that were never even finished before a single Royal Navy ship and types that sucked massive ass in real life are given hugely boosted importance in game because the IJN happened to be the only people loony enough to build the wastes of space *cough*BBV*cough*CLT*cough*.

    But of course this is because the Japanese players are their main customers. The biggest customer base for WG is Russian so it's understandable that they'd want a Russian line in the game fairly early on. Truth be told the DD line wasn't that bad there were enough real ships if you counted a few immediately post war designs to build a solid tree (why they didn't USE those instead of paper designs for the top end and ended up shunting them off into a new splinter line added later is a another issue) The Russian cruiser lines before ANY RN line was less forgivable though as the line was full of paper and didn't really add much either.

    Still, at least when we did get a RN line it starts off slow but rapidly becomes some of the rawest cheese in the game once you got over the mid tier hump. The Fiji and Belfast in particular are just disgusting at T7. Oh I'm sorry did you think I set that smoke screen to run? Bend over you dirty little faker, you're about to get some stiff British shells all over your upper works

    They also had a half finished Admiral Hipper-class cruiser that bombarded German troops during the siege of Leningrad. The irony.
