Hi Regia Marina: Good beguining with your AU nation! May I make some comments about your ironclad? First of all, in 1871 the disaster of HMS Captain was still very fresh in the mind of all naval designers. I think that the metacentric high in CS Terror is excesive. Furthermore, the towers are of th...

Note: These vessels are my idea, but I cannot thank the other guys enough (Gunship, C. Hoefer, and Psilander) for making the baseline for my vessel. -History: The Carolinian Navy after 1865 included just 1 ironclad. The Victory was, by this time, hopelessly outclassed by other nations ships and real...

I won't comment on the backstory, but drawings are quite nice for a beginner (though You could improve a bit the masts on Hermes - esp. the parts You made 1-pixel thick, and generally add more detailing on most of the pictures). Yea... I was thinking about that. It does look a little thin. Thanks f...

Originally, the fort was armed with 4 24-pounder smoothbore muzzle loaders, 3 32-pounder howitzers, and 6 75-mm shell gun...

Laid down as a fast pleasure yacht named the Serenity in 1858, the Hermes (named for being a messenger and for being fast) was a representative example of the fast patrol and dispatch vessels in use by the Carolinian navy during and right after the Civil War. The Hermes was laid up for repairs at th...

Note: I have a lot of free time from school coming up so I should be able to update this thread more frequently than I have been. Forgive me, high school is a lot of work, especially with all honors classes. While I intend to finish up this decade first, the next decade (1875-1885) will bring about ...

Hey Red, I was reading the original Republic of Texas AU and saw that you were with the 10th. Mountain Division HQ (li) in Afghanistan. I was wondering, what does the (li) stand for? I assumed Louisiana, because I know that there are state-differentiated divisions ,but I am probably mistaken.
